And another Sunday has arrived. A slow Sunday, hopefully. The temps are going to be warm, but rain is on the way. Lots of rain since the chance of rain today is 90% and the likelihood for rain tomorrow is 99%. Oh, the temps are going to be super warm - in the mid to upper 70's.
I scheduled a vacation day for this week, so I only work 3 days. I do have to use vacation. Use it or lose it. The big orange retailer I work for doesn't let us carry it over, not that I've ever done that, at least not with vacation. I used to do that with personal time. Never got sick. However, accumulating personal time is no longer an option. They do a deposit to your bank account for the days not used. Me? I'd rather have the time off.
The new aquarium pump arrived yesterday and will be installed this morning. I don't have to be to work until 1:15 PM so there's plenty of time to get things done. I might even get in a jog on the treadmill.
I have daffodils that are ready to bloom.
There are about 1000 truckers waiting in somewhere in Maryland who have come to protest mask mandates... Woah! they came a little too late for that party. So, I guess they're planning a peaceable protest for all mandates which, I suppose, means most of them are anti-vax. Covid deaths are still over 2000 per day among the anti-vax group.
It also turns out that they are 3 times more likely to believe The Big Lie. Hhhmmm. One can only wonder if they'll even realize the party's over. Probably not.
And I saw Mikey Pence gave a speech to the RNC on Friday. He said Putin apologists have no place in the Republican party. That group includes the, Donald, the Orange Anus, Trump (aka DOA Trump). That fool has claimed several times "Putin is my friend," or that Putin's "a good friend." At least that's what desperate Don wants to believe, and feels the world needs to accept it as a truth. DOA Trump doesn't understand he is no longer useful to his blow bro Vlad. That's right, his party's over, too. In fact, the only ones who are going to believe him are the unvaxed group who still believe there's a mask mandate.
The Far Right have always been late to the Party... and the Bromance between Vlad and IQ45 ended when he was no longer useful to the one pulling his strings. Plus he owes lots of Money to the Russians and they sure will wanna collect now... their economy is gonna be in shambles due to this fuckfest Putin got them into with his hard on to restore Russia to the 19th and 20th Centuries. He's stark raving Mad and potentially could be dying, so I do not think he feels he has anything to lose... his deteriorated Mental State in the last Year or so is very interesting, wonder what the formal diagnosis is? I'd like to think it's going to be a slow painful Death as Karmic consequences for his Evil will inflict upon him. I don't think NATO will be able to just sit this one out, tho' clearly they want to, it's just resembling WWII and the Nazis too much, the parallels being striking.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I agree. I think they've realized by now that he's not going to stop with the Ukraine.
DeleteSadly, the convoy is protesting something that is basically over and spending massive amounts on gasoline to do it.
ReplyDeleteMAGAts are dumb.
I understand standard beltway traffic tangled the entire thing up.
DeleteThe Putin Republicans need a one way plane ticket to Moscow
ReplyDeleteAgreed, in fact I'll help load their baggage for them.
DeleteMuch like my free covid tests, the convoy is a little late.
