Well, hello weekend? What a shame I'm working. Every day for the next 3 days I'll be at the Flooring Desk. I am so excited. No, not really, but I'll be perfectly honest, the money is nice. I get to buy things while still adding to my my savings. Nice. And it's not like the job is brutal. I haven't had to deal with a wacked out customer in a couple of week.
I just took my temp and it's 98 (F) according to the thin strip of a thermometer they gave us. That's wrong, of course. Every morning when I go to work I have my picture taken by a thermal camera. Yesterday my temp was 96.7 (F). I'm a cold one. Even when I take it at home, with my 'real' thermometer, it's normal for my temp to be in the mid 97's (F).
We now have less than 2 months to go before the election. Both Facebook and Twitter have said they're going to stop running all political ads a week before November 3. YouTube needs to do the same thing. For those who don't watch things on YouTube, let me tell you, there are a lot of political ads. Some you can skip, others, however, are only 15 seconds long and you need to let those play through. Most of the commercials I've seen have been for Biden. I guess I just don't watch the same videos and the Idiot Jerk's base.
And, evidently, the Law and Order agenda the Idiot Jerk has been promoting is not taking hold. I read in the Washington Post that only 10% of Americans prioritize crime as an issue. Nope. The vast majority are more concerned about... (are you ready) Covid 19. And since the Republicans have been in charge 70% of Americans feel the country is going in the wrong direction. That other 30%? Republicans. You have to remember, that 30% doesn't give a shit about anybody but themselves. This has always been the selfish problem with Conservatives. It's all about the "my." They will never change.
And now for something light. I saw this the other day and was impressed. I have no idea why the character of Reno Sweenee has never been played by a man. The lyric fits.
I love Jonathan Groff. About social media and political ads, someone suggested I watch The Hack on Netflix. I try to stay off social media just because it's so close to the election. I end up frustrated. And I think how can people I know and grew up with think this way or think that this is alright. I have always been a believer that differences of opinions/beliefs between friends allow us to be friends. Discussing these differences allows us to grow mentally and spiritually. Yet sometimes I think can some people really be blind to all that is going on?
ReplyDeleteAnyway, Jonathan Groff...everything!!
Not blind, it's just easier for some to say "if it doesn't effect me personally, it's really of no concern to me."
DeleteTwitter and Facehook are doing too little too late. But whatever makes them feel better. Social media is trash.
ReplyDeleteCheeto and the repugs are selfish MoFos. What's new? They go with their little slogans and the do as I say, not as I do and everybody just lets them do as they please. They need to be voted out of office. For thec common good.
When Jonathan Groff puts his hands on his hips I get weak. Gimme!
Of course you're a cold one, dear. I don't need a thermometer to tell me that...
XOXO
Good thing I'm not female, people might think I was firgid.
Deleteto hear the dump tell it, NYC/seattle/portland/chicago have been on fire for the past 90 days. if that is so, then why are the cities not burned to the ground yet? dumbass muthafucka!
ReplyDeleteThat's what his base wants to believe.
DeleteI sing that song all the time around our house.
ReplyDeleteSeriously.
Great performance.
It is so impressive, and he does it wearing a sweater!
DeleteI hope that 70% are in the right states to make things flip.
ReplyDeleteCovid will be the determining factor, which is why he's so desperately throwing as much shit against the wall as possible.
DeleteYes, by the way your write and tone, your excitement seems to be off the charts to go to work!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHave I got a tale for tomorrow.
