In response to "You Could Have Just Said"

My son has the same problem gagging on tomatoes although he can do ketchup. I hate the horsestuff, too, although I can take a tiny dab here or there, but it just burns. Only yellow mustard for me. I always pay good attention when ordering any deli sandwich and ask for "yellow" and watch as they make it.

In response to "Men of the Year"

I turned 18 in time to vote for Jimmy Carter in 1976. I was proud to support a decent, educated man who served his country. He studied engineering and served as a submarine officer aboard the USS Pomfret. He later became involved in the Navy's nuclear program and participated in the cleanup that followed a reactor accident at Canada's Chalk River Laboratories. Lieutenant Carter put on protective gear and took his turn being lowered into the hot zone to disassemble the damaged reactor. His more well-known career in politics was noted for humility, kindness, and compassion. Jimmy Carte was a man of heroic courage who spent his entire life in public service. I only wish that America could see his example as something to be emulated rather than ridiculed.

Well they deserved the recognition as they definitely made an impact on the last century. Unfortunately, so much of it was negative. Many, not just Time, seem to equate power with greatness.

Jimmy Carter was a great person... (1924-2024).

In response to "Donald J. Trump, DEI"

Yeah... and he may be prez again. He gets away with everything. It's his greatest talent. That, and instilling fear... and lying.

I think... Harris/Walz (a.k.a Brat&brats) needs to be ahead by 5% or 8 million votes to squeak by. If they don't get ahead by more than 3% in Congress, they will get little support from there.

But Americans vote out of fear. There are many who fear the raising cost of food (it is), the price of gasoline (because...), and criminal immigrants stealing their last piece of pie (they aren't... and they aren't).

DJT is running scared though... The forecast for November is stormy.

In response to "The MAGA Anthem"

The RNC is now known as the TNC... the old replaced by the new.

Has Donald-the-Martyr been made a saint yet?

It's funny that the former GOP talks about unity... I was never included.

In response to "Assassination Tango"

Don't worry, be happy!

The homeless camps will be relocated away from decent folks and equipped with tight security. Out of sight, out of mind!

The LBGQT policy will be don't ask, don't tell, don't be. Everyone will display cultural unity or go to jail. Out of sight, out of mind!

Women will be confined to their homes unless accompanied by a male guardian. No more worries about career or politics. Out of sight, out of mind!

State media will show only positive images of the great Amerika. No more coverage of urban crime, civil unrest, or climate disaster. Out of sight, out of mind!

If you'll just stop being woke you won't even notice that you're living in Hell.

In response to "Assassination Tango"

Saint Donald the Martyr was crowned pope/king/heir-apparent to the papal-state/kingdom/empire of the CMTA, the successor to the failed USA. E Pluribus Unum will be replaced by We Are Saved (We... not you), the Constitution replaced by the Bible-according-to-some-Christians (but not others), women will be put in their rightful place, minorities will bow to the Almighty White Man (God/Jesus is White), science will be subservient to theology, abnormals (trans, queer, etc) will have no rights. The State will be Loyal to Saint Donald the Martyr. Any servant must be loyal. Anyone not speaking English will be suspect. Anyone without American born parents will be suspect. Deportation of suspected undesirables will be a.s.a.p. The new King will give commends and cannot be questioned nor removed without a violent uprising. The CMTA will be a fortress nation.

The God-appointed, Saint-anointed theocracy will not be known as Atwood's Gilead, rather the Christian Military Theocracy of Amerikkka.

...

In truth? It's toxic masculinity supported by toxic men and the women who want to be fucked by them.

IT'S A MAN'S WORLD

is the basic message.

Its absolute loyalty (gimu) resembles the old Empire of Japan in some disturbing ways as does the quid-pro-quo system of favors and money (giri) that kept the poor poor.

I saved it to come back to later but from what I see it's quite lovely and accurate!
Do keep on writing!(I'm proofing our Blogging Bliss newsletter!)

In response to "Lost on Route 66"

I agree with you about family activities dying in most households. We don't watch much television but we do play a board game while having our evening dinner meal. It encourages us to eat slower and to have interesting conversations.

Uttered Bullshit

Selling your soul only feels wrong while you have one. Once it's gone, you don't miss it at all. - The Gospel of Trump

I called the university and booked some time on their scanning electron microscope today. I wanted to see if I could find some respect for President Trump. No go.

I felt bad about it for a minute and then I thought, Wait, maybe I should look at him instead of me. If I can detect any reason at all to respect him, then I might feel better.

I set the microscope to its maximum magnification and looked for compassion, kindness, or humility. Nope, nope, and nope.

Well, Christian virtues aren't everything. Maybe I can find courage, integrity, or wisdom. Not a trace.

There has to be something positive, what about humor, intelligence, or good looks? Not even a blip.

Then the view became murky, and I realized that the lens was completely fouled with uttered bullshit.

I shook my head in disappointment and left. My time slot was about done, anyway.
