Biz as usual in Texas

I’ve been numb to this shit for years and I honestly can’t remember when it happened because Uvalde wasn’t anything new in Amerika, the only Western country where mass shootings are weekly occurrences. It’s only a matter of minutes before The Onion just reposts their darkly funny and painfully true story about the latest as all they have to do is change the location.

Friends and family out of state were quick to point out Beto’s confrontation with the Texas Gaggle of Shitbirds (Abbott, Patrick, Paxton and I think I heard Cruz’s whiney voice). Hate to burst their bubble, what he did at best was a Hail Mary since he’s still going to be trounced in the general election alongside the Democratic Party in the House and Senate. It sucks. It’s pessimistic. It’s the horrible reality of Amerika. Too many Amerikans are mentally insecure and think a gun (aka a surrogate penis) will keep them safe from whatever existential threat Faux News told them. I have a cousin who goes on and on about how it keeps the gubmint in check. HA! If the Feds wanted to take him out, they wouldn’t waste their time with a Waco-esque standoff. They’ll use a drone and he’d never see it coming.

Meanwhile, what should we do? Honestly…the best solution is to follow my friend Jeremy to Europe. Amerika is a lost cause and it all began when St. Reagan got elected. The GOP are willing to accept the violence they encourage. Their patron saint was shot by a crazy person in 1981 and it didn’t kill him (damn it); thus, the bearded fictional man in the sky is on their side.
