Bluntness

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

Republicans are Screwed

 We did get snow overnight.  In fact, we are still in a what you might want to call a light flurry stage, which is supposed to last another few hours with little to no accumulation.  Total snowfall?  Maybe 2 inches at best.  This will take about 5 minutes to clean everything off, which is good as I'm going to go to my neighborhood Giant Supermarket later this morning.  I'm going to try chicken souvlaki in the crockpot for dinner.

And yesterday was another meh day.  Well, that's not completely correct.  I did work on the aquarium in the writing room.  I made pasta and and sauce for dinner.  But otherwise nothing much was accomplished.  There are so many things I want to do, but I just never seem to get around to doing them.  This is, no doubt, a result of the shit show that's going on in Washington.  The whole thing is so terribly depressing, and for those of you who don't know, being tired is a symptom of being depressed.  So, I end up taking a lot of naps.  Honestly, I do need to get my ass in gear, literally.

My friend Patty said she'd take care of Howie if I decided to return to Greece and that means I've got to take him over to meet her 3 dogs.  Hers are tiny, and Howie is probably approaching 60 pounds.  He doesn't like the neighbor's goldendoodle at all because when he was a little puppy, their dog lunged at him barking loudly.

Here's a pic of the pasta.  It's eggless, so it doesn't need to be refrigerated.


Inflation when up 3%.  That's not good for Orangie, but then many of us knew this promise to lower prices was a lie.  All he ever does is lie.  And his tariffs on steel and aluminum?  Well, the aluminum is going to increase the cost of a case of beer because the cans will be more expensive.  That's going to piss of his beer guzzling cultists.  

And how many of you saw any of Elonia's presser yesterday?  I just saw bits and pieces, enough to realize he was giddy with delight at doing his first press conference with his puppet sitting solidly behind the Resolute Desk.  Elonia brought along his prop child, the son he uses as a bullet shield.  At one point, the shield was sitting on Elonia's shoulders.  Every now and then Orangie would say something, but mostly Elonia did all of the talking.  Believe me when I tell you that the Republicans are so screwed.

  1. And did you see when the kid was standing beside Dump and started picking his nose? LMAO!!! If you haven't, photos of it are all over the internet.

    1. Evidently the kid said, "you're not the president, go away."

  2. I felt the same way about yesterday's presser. Bringing your kid to the shitshow was using him as a shield. Trump looked vacant and the puppet master was trying to sound approachable. Kicking AP out of the process seems counterintuitive. They can do what they want with the narrative now.

    1. I think the entire thing had more to do with Elonia's ego than anything else, you could tell by how bouncy and perky he was. One of the many things he can't fix, he's always awkward in public speaking situations.

  3. Oh, Howie will remember that bad dog forever.
    And of course inflation went up. LOL The MAGAts are using to boycott beers, so there's that. They're trained to stop drinking. Heh.

    And that presser was a shitshow. Space Karen was high on Ketamine, his kid was picking his nose while smelling Cheeto and Mango Mussolini was sitting down looking dejected and every one of his 78 years LOL. And the 'explanations'? OMG I cackled.

    XOXO

    1. Yeah, he likes other dogs, but the minute the neighbor's dog barks, he heads for the back door. I hope Elonia's sycophants told him it went well, the more of these presser's he throws, the more the hate is going to rise.

  4. I think you should take Holly over to meet her and her dogs. Now's a good time to get him acclimated being around other dogs. But being a young pup still they seem to get along with everybody. And boy that pasta sure looks good. Enjoy!

    I'm still enjoying winter and the little snow falls we got just enough to make it look pretty. But I know the closer we get to Spring the winter doldrums will set in.

    1. We're trying to arrange a date, but the weather keeps getting in the way. I do wish it would stop snowing... now.

  5. It was clear about the fuckery of that performance, who's running the show and which gelatinous bastard is just the puppet.

    1. He either has the same dirt on Trump that Putin had, or something worse.

  6. I'm reassured to hear you have your off days/lazy days too. Sometimes when I'm blog reading I feel like everyone else is always up and bursting to go and here's me sitting on my backside for hours just reading!

    1. If I don't have a plan, I just slug away the hours. This is why I make a chore list in the morning. If I try to wing it, I know I'll simply swoop down on the nearest comfy spot for a quick snooze.
