Bluntness

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

Making Losing Great Again

 And welcome to a new Monday morning.   Outside, the temps are a cool 38 (F), and they'll be heating up into the moderate mid 40 (F) range.  The sky's overcast and while we don't have windy conditions shaking up the branches of the River Birch in my side yard, it is breeze.  I have to work, so I'm not going to miss anything.

I did place my order last evening for a new Concept 2 rower.  It should ship in a few days.  I have about a week and a half to get the workout room ready.   I was planning on moving many things.  That may not be necessary, well, maybe one thing.  The rest is just going to be... shall we say, a minor redecoration.  To be more precise, the exercise equipment is being reoriented.  I will shoot a picture once everything is done.

And I am going to be returning that Garmin blood pressure cuff.  This morning I took a reading and, I kid you not, this morning's reading was... 202/144 and my pulse was 142 and I was in a hypertensive crisis, except I wasn't.  Using my old Lumiscope cuff five minutes later, my reading was 139/81 with a pulse of 54.  My pressure is always a bit higher in the morning because I start caffeinating soon after I'm up.  My resting pulse is normally in the low to mid 50s because of... exercise.

To give you an idea of how shitty some customers are, one of the returned this tile mosaic that they cut poorly.  Of course, who ever this customer was, he covered up his mistakes by hiding it beneath other mosaics that hadn't been cut.  I'm betting he was a Republican.


Funny things are beginning to happen in politics, concerned citizens are beginning to warn Republicans about their Trump problem.  In Pennsylvania, former Senator Dent spoke this past weekend of impending, catastrophic losses for Republicans.  He understands that everything Trump touches dies.  I liked the bit where he said that Trump makes "losing Great Again."  To understand this, Republicans would need to reassess their beliefs, something they simply can not do. This is what makes MAGA a cult.  They're addicted to their own lies.  Trump is will be bringing their bad Karma to them with such a destructive force the party will not survive.  This is a good thing.

  1. Sadly, or not, for many in the GOP, these calls will be too little and too late. But it will be interesting to watch his minions try to justify their adoration for Hair Furor.

    1. Let's just hope Democrats think these complaints are going to mean an easy election. We need to kick the piss of the GOP and that's not going to happen if voters stay home.

  2. Oh, so nice of you.
    Hoping the Repugs would have... remorse and reflection? They won't learn. They want power (and are compromise up to the wazoo, just check the list of drugs that were circulating in the White House under Cheeto).
    AndI cannot believe somebody would return the tile in that state. REALLY??

    XOXO

    1. I saw that list and thought, "this is the political party complaining about Fentanyl? Some returns are always a form of grift.

  3. The Maga's will never give up their Trumpenführer, just as Republicans in the past were in denial of the corruption of Nixon and Harding and their administrations.
    They will always defend their crooks and they pride themselves in being for law-and-order, what a joke. -Rj

    1. And they will never admit to making a mistake, which will kill them off.
