Bluntness

I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

Cycling in the Time of Covid

Remember when days of the week used to count for something?  Or, better yet, remember when we men needed to wear a coat and tie to work?  Is that too far back?  And then casual dress arrived on the scene and jackets were not required.  And then ties disappeared.  I still own ties, but most of them I gave to Community Aid.  In an odd sort of way, this is how evolution works.  Things that are no longer necessary slowly fade away, like your appendix, a worm-like appendage that sometimes has to be removed when it gets inflamed.  Just like the Idiot Jerk in the White House.  Like a really bad appendix, he's about ready to rupture.  An abscess is already forming around him.  He is going to lose the election... badly.  He is going to be treated the way he has treated so many others in his life and his little egocentric brain is about to pop.  It is not going to be pretty.
Congress shot down his silly, little balloon about delaying the election.  His little ploy is going hurt his approval rating.  While his base might want a dictatorship, a vast majority of Americans do not.  We like living in a democracy.  Sometimes things go our way, sometimes they don't, but everything stays Centrist.  The Idiot Jerk's hard core base hates Centrist.  They want to dictate and control.  And they are a minority group who's going to lose their leader this fall.  Yep.  The American people are going to politically cut off the head of the Republican Party.
I understand the Idiot Jerk's campaign has put a hold on buying more TV ad time.  He has been spending money like it's going out of style in Florida, and he's continuing to fall behind Biden in the polls.  I don't doubt for a second one of his smarter kids, probably Ivanka Danka told him he's wasting his buckos.  What's more important?  Getting re-elected or managing to transfer a couple hundred million $$$ into his personal bank account?  There are already issues of his campaign paying 3rd party vendors for services rendered.  I think the proper term is called Money Laundering.  I suspect his campaign money is being secretly transferred into his personal accounts faster than you can say 'shit.'
Finally, I've been playing around with the camera in my new phone... taking selfies, well, my version of selfies.  Sometimes I like what I do, sometimes it gets deleted faster than the Idiot Jerk in the White House can say "I."  There really are not a lot of photographs of me out there.  It's just the way I am.  Anyway, here's one I call Cycling in the Time of Covid.

    1. You're supposed to be wowed by the textures, the somber blues and shadows, not my pretty face.

  2. I like your mask!
    And I'd think riding a bike should be one of the least risky things we can do. I think I'm going to get mine down from its perch in the garage.
    As for IMPOTUS, apparently even The Federalist published something against him. When you lose the hardcore repugs...
    And his corruption, divisive tactics, racism and strongman approaches are not really working. Who knew?
    But his hardcore base is rabid. And they will not let go. And Russia will interfere. And the repugs will try to suppress voting. It's a battle that needs to be won.

    XOXO

  3. I have always dressed up for work and when going out to shop, eat, drink. Things are much too relaxed for me. Sweats and tees shirts are not cute everywhere. But I chalk a lot of it up to just pure laziness with many. Especially these Karen's who think sweats and exercise wear is fashion. The poor creatures.

  4. That's a good camera on your phone. Mine doesn't get much definition so I think I'll get a Samsung next time. Cheaper phone and they seem to take better photos. And "one of Trump's more intelligent kids" - isn't that an oxymoron?

    1. I have a Google Pixel phone, less expensive than Samsung works just as well.
