Bluntness

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

Fallout

 Well, it's Monday, the beginning of the work week.  Presently our temp is 49 (F) and it's expected to zoom, zoom, zoom up to 80 (F).  That's warm for this time of year.  We had rain overnight, and thunderstorms are expected later in the afternoon, early event.  With it being so warm, and with the rain, I can tell you that my lawn is going to go zoom, zoom, zoom as well.  

I do get to go to work today.  This will be the last shift I start at 0930.  That makes me happy.  Sure, I get to leave an hour earlier, but I'll be honest, that hour doesn't make that much of a difference.  I'm a morning person.  I get things done in the evening.  When I get home at 1930, all I want to do is either watch something on TV or play a video game.  The idea of starting a project, or continuing a project is the farthest thing from my mind.  I sure as hell not going to take a 14 mile bike ride.  In fact, as far back as I can remember, I've never been an evening person.  Perhaps that's why I was always late with my homework.

And, speaking of TV and video games.  I watched the new Fallout on Amazon Prime.  Loved it!  And I'm evidently not alone.  The show has a 94% on Rotten Tomatoes.  That same % is on Google reviews.  Yes, it's that good.  It has over the top violence that makes you laugh.  There is so much going on, I may have to watch it a 2nd time to get what I've missed.


Today is, also, the Spawn of Satan's first day in court.  Do you have any idea how good it makes me feel to say those words?  Finally.  Will he be held accountable?  I don't doubt.  I'm hearing that it make take 2 weeks for the jury to be seated.  During that time prepare for the onslaught of media reporting and opinionizing as America has never seen.  Will it hurt Trump in his attempt to win a 2nd presidency?  You bet.  He has always played the part of the injured party, but for this trial to help him he would need to play sympathetic and that's impossible.  He has always played the part of the angry victim, however, that's going to be difficult as people begin to testify.  As his sleaze factor goes on full display, Evangelical Christians are going to discover Trump was the test of Faith that they failed.  He is not the Herald they were praying for.  The cultists will rage, not because they feel sorry for him, but because he got caught.  It's always fun watching a phony great man fall.

  1. And Judge Merchan informed Trump that he will not tolerate any outbursts from him and that he will be jailed if he is not in court as ordered. Thank God a judge who finally won’t put up with Trump’s shit-show. :-) -Rj

    1. Especially since he claimed in a post on Truth Social that big, terrible things were going to happen today.

  4. Ohhh I binged Fallout.
    I've never played the video game (and it's a re-imagining of it, so I'm safe) but I liked the art direction and the gore. The narrative is a little choppy (exposure was overdone but that connection with The Ghoul was priceless!) but I enjoyed it. Not as good as The Rest of Us, though...
    And Drowsy Don was dozing during the whole thing? OMG Priceless. He's gonna HAVE to be there EVERY DAY. Popcorn galore.

    XOXO

    1. Different type of game. The Last of Us get's very gory violent, if the series follows the game.
      Yes, I think some people called it slumbergate.

  5. Thanks for the recommendation for Fallout. I'll have to take a look to see if it's on Amazon over here as I'm at a bit of a loss for something good to watch lately (still waiting for Clarkson's Farm to come back)!

    1. Waiting? That's one of the biggest problems with streaming shows, sometimes you have to wait almost a year before the 2nd or 3rd series starts.
