Gender Issue

 My weekend began last evening.

I finished yesterday at work by rebuilding 2 orders, one for blinds and one for flooring because of mistakes.  One was done by our measurement service, the other by a flooring associate.  This is what happens when you become the senior associate in the department; people believe you know how to do everything.  Being truthful, a lot of the time I just wing it.

Last night I watched "Love and Monsters."  It was quite entertaining.  A good movie to start my weekend.

My friend Betsy, who was supposed to visit for Thanksgiving, called and cancelled last evening as well.  Actually, I was fairly certain yesterday afternoon this was going to happen.  I don't blame her.  She works with mentally handicapped individuals, many of whom take of their masks, and they touch things.  Several of their group homes have had to go into quarantine.  The infection rate in York County, where she lives and works, is rising rapidly.  Lots of stupid Republicans live there.

Speaking of stupid, half of all Republicans believe the Idiot Jerk when he says the Democrats are stealing the election.  Believe me, that is a minority group.  Of course, everybody is asking why so many did vote for him.  I've been thinking about this a lot.  There are a lot of conflicting ideas floating around out there.  Here's mine: Safety.  We are a patriarchal society, and for many the idea of having a woman as a Vice President was frightening.  This was a change many were afraid to accept.  They found it safer to stay with the demon they knew, far more safer then dealing with the possibility that is something happens to Biden they were going to have a Madam President.  Really, what this election boils down to is one thing.  Gender.  Change is difficult.  Most conservatives never change, they merely die off.

Here's another shot from Love and Monsters.
