Bluntness

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

Candy

Yesterday our high did not make it up into the 70s (F) as predicted.  We have the same forecast for today.  I'm doubting if that's going to happen.  We'll make it into the upper 60s (F).  This is fine.  It's time for the autumn leaves to begin falling and mine are barely beginning to change color.  Next weekend we're supposed to be getting rain.  We need it.  Everything is dry here.

Not too much happened yesterday.  I got some work done on the book before heading off to work.

Work was... well, I spent a lot of time doing research on a flooring measure I set up on 10/18.  The job is for a pet clinic, that's a commercial install.  I originally set it up as residential, though I left notes letting the measure tech this was a clinic.  On 10/22, I found out how to set up commercial measure and set one up for the customer.  The residential measure tech went out and measured half of the building, then left, telling the customer he'd come back and finish the job.  He didn't.  Instead he complained.  Yesterday, the customer called, the commercial measure tech has not yet set up a measure date.  That makes me look bad, so I spent 2 hours researching, documenting, and emailing.  So the only good thing about my shift was that there was candy for Halloween, so I placated my frustrations with numerous Kit-Kat bars.  Did you know they have different flavors and colors.


Yesterday was Halloween, and while the administration tried to pull a lot of tricks, all of which failed, there were some delightful treats.

Orangie's $10 billion lawsuit against the Wall Street Journal was thrown out because it was nonsense.  I don't doubt he filed it while he was having a bad diaper day.  His $10 billion lawsuit against the BBC is in deep doo doo.  He has until November 23 to provide written documentation that the BBC purposefully intended to defame his character with slander.  If such paperwork is not filed, the case will be thrown out and he will have to pay all legal expenses.  I don't doubt that this was another bad diaper day lawsuit.  Good luck with him paying any legal costs.

My brother told me a while back that he was seriously considering changing his voter registration from Republican to Independent.  Then yesterday he texted me saying he was so busy with work, he might not be able to vote on Tuesday.  I think he represents those Republicans who have not fallen under the influence of the cult.  I suspect many dyed in the wool Republicans our going to sit the midterms out.  Depending upon what happens after the midterms, they may sit out the 2028 elections as well.  My brother's comment about JD running for president:  😂🤣😂

Vote! Vote! Vote!

Good morning world.  We're going to have a moderate Halloween here in Central PA.  Our high will be in the low 60s (F).  That's not bad for sitting at the doorway to November.  We have been warm like this before, though.  We're only about halfway through autumn.  Winter's another story, and it zooming at us faster than you know..

And yesterday was a good day.  Laundry was done.  Chores were done.  Most importantly, I cleaned out my refrigerator, not that it was dirty.  Underneath the bottom vegetable drawer I did find 3 desiccated asparagus spears and a dried out mushroom.  Mostly what I did was throw away things that were definitely past their expiration date, include a jar of bread and butter pickles.    When I was finished, I stood back and realized how empty my fridge is now that it's been cleaned.  This doesn't mean I'm going to run out and buy all sorts of refrigerated food stuffs to make it look full.  Having every shelf in your fridge filled does not mean you have a lot of food in your house.  Fresh vegetables need to be eaten when they're fresh, not wilted.  You don't need to religiously follow every expiration date, but you do need to understand that after a certain time, things are simply not healthy.  


I understand that the real reason the Orange Anus originally canceled this weekend's rallies was because someone in his administration told him that the Republican candidates in Iowa and Kansas were going to lose, and, being the asshole he is, he didn't want to be photographed standing next to losers.  At least this is what Aaron Parnas and he seems to hear a lot of leakage from the White House.  Of course, canceling meant that Orangie was subjected to a lot of "old, ailing, and weak" comments, so now he's back on the road for two more rallies.  Hearing that he was heckled several times in Florida last evening does my heart good.  Knowing that his thin skin is being prickled so frequently makes me smile.  The time has come to vote that sucker into oblivion.

Elonia Musk anguishing over the midterms after spending almost half a billion dollars trying to keep Republicans in power is the honey in my tea.   This phony is terrified he's going to lose all of those highly questionable contracts he signed with Orangie's government.  If this happens, it will be duly fitting for a failed human who chose greed over feeding the worlds hungry.

The only way we can nail these coffins shut for good is to vote.  I can not drive that point home hard enough.  Vote.  Only American voters can bring these losers down, and when they're down, we need kick them hard.  Their expiration date has long since passed.
