Today’s mood
This in a nutshell is why America is the most overrated country in History as CV-19 and the elections of shit-for-brains POTUSes (St. Reagan, Dubious Bush and Orange Foolius) have exposed its weaknesses, myths and vulnerabilities. Meanwhile, “dying, old” Europe … Continue reading
I’ve made it around the Sun 52 times
If it weren’t for Jennifer, great friends, great cats, my fun hobbies, my personal stream, my Macs and Austin (none in any particular order), the pandemic would’ve made this the worst birthday since 1985. Speaking of its 35th anniversary, I’ll … Continue reading
Warning sign of Idiocracy happening: July 2020 edition
The world’s most disgusting shoes have teamed up with the unhealthiest chicken known to humanity. I really hope they don’t come with drumsticks attached because you combine that smell with the dirty feet many people have, especially children…it makes me … Continue reading
This cat is more helpful than my governor
I’m even more impressed by the cat’s owner/human in how they found one patient enough to wear the outfit. Even dogs are more cooperative.
Finally some mainstream truth-telling about Hamilton
Whenever Broadway has a new show that isn’t derived from an Eighties movie or any other decade, I’m thrilled. It is hard to get an original idea to take off in any media these days because too many accountants are … Continue reading
Austin/Travis County will soon be screwed, thanks Gov. Shitbag
Yesterday, my adopted home area exceeded 70 new CV-19 hospitalizations which means we should be implementing something called Stage 5: everything non-essential is shut down or brought to a halt. As much as that sucks, I agree with the experts … Continue reading
Fifteen years of Picayune in this format!
Where are now? Let’s see three Mac Minis and a virtualized server for hosting and two different Weblog solutions. I’ve lost track how long I’ve been with WordPress but when I made the belated jump to the Weblog format, it … Continue reading
Gov. Dumbass reverses course…partially
As per the news, Texas had a surge in CV-19 cases Wednesday; to the number of 8000 in a day. So our reality-denying, race-baiting, shitbag governor finally issued an order stating that mask wearing is mandatory in counties with over … Continue reading
America’s pathetic behavior on display…again
Allegedly, these two assholes who overreacted to the protesters marching in their One Percenter neighborhood are injury-lawsuit lawyers. They should’ve attended a basic weapons training class because, they of all people should know they could be sued for injuring somebody … Continue reading
Got my first mani-/pedicure, wow!
Today, my girlfriend and I went to get mani-/pedi-‘s before Texas is shut down even further. Fear not! Everybody involved in the process wore a mask! The techs, the counter person, me. All I have to say about the outcome … Continue reading
NASCAR bans the flag of traitors and terrorists!
It only took the organization decades to finally ditch the stars and bars representing the traitorous Army of North Virginia but I’ll take it. The decision may eat into the racing association’s fanbase yet I’m confident there was some cynicism … Continue reading
One good thing from the Depression of 2020
I know these places provide a service for people who are “beneath” the financial radar but the fact that they exist is very damning. America should find a way to empower every citizen, resident, whoever. Money is money and these … Continue reading
NBA & NHL plans will always have an asterisk next to 2020
The NBA owners approved their plan to have a big tournament in Orlando and I can’t remember if the NHL was going to do theirs. Let’s face it though, there’s never going to be a solution to please everybody because … Continue reading
New Chucks for May 2020, part 6
I think I have a pair in this shade of green but I wanted these for the cool pockets on the outside. They may come in handy if I’m at a show or being a tourist, hide some emergency money … Continue reading
For All Mankind: one season
This was the first show I was interested in watching on Apple’s new TV/Movie network and I was also a little apprehensive. Whenever a former Star Trek producer is involved, it’s a warning that the show might be craptacular. Let’s face it, … Continue reading
