The Conservative Aberration

 The temp was 49 (F) when I got up this morning.  Right now my thermostat is registering the temp inside the house at 68 (F).  This means I'm wearing sweatpants and a sweat shirt.  It's still a little too early to turn on the heat, but I figure that day is fast approaching.  As long as the daytime highs are in the mid to upper 70s (F) that will be fine.  Once it gets too chilly willy the heat will be turned on.

So, while much was accomplished on Tuesday, yesterday turned out to be a not-so-productive Wednesday.  Only one load of laundry.  I did get over 1000 words written.  That was nice.  Research for this book has not only led me into the world of feng shui, but also caused me to make a small foray into contracts within the music industry.  It seems as though everyone wants as much credit as they can legally get because that translates into royalty payments.  Take the lawsuit regarding the song Every Breath You Take by The Police.  Both Stewart Copeland and Andy Summers feel they are owed money for their contributions to that famous song and so they are taking Sting to court.  If you want a good chuckle at pettiness, take a look at this lawsuit.

And the orange retailer I work for has decided that I'm going to start working Thursday afternoons, at least for the next few weeks.  This meant changing my workout schedule since normally I get my cardio by riding my bike on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons.  So now we're changing that up and I'm doing my cardio on Tuesdays and Fridays, with a break on Thursday and strength on Saturday morning.

So the laundry I did yesterday was bed sheets.  Since Howie sleeps on the bed, I have it covered with his "special" sheet.  Yesterday it fell out of the dryer and he thought we'd have a nice game of chase and grab.

And so the shut down continues into day 2.  So, how is it going for the Republicans?  Not good.  How do I know this?  The Washington Post, which is owned by Orangie's crony Jeff Bezos, lead headline was "Most Americans Blame Republicans."  The Washington Post as been at the forefront of sane washing everything Orangie does, so this headline is horrible for the GOP; no one is being kind to them.

Orangie is meeting with Russel Vought, the architect of Project 2025 to discuss what Democratic jobs to cut.  This, in itself, show just how out of touch Conservatives are with the American people.  They are simply refusing to read the room.  The truth is that Conservatives don't care.  They are a group of people who only love power and control.  Taking that away from them is the only thing they will understand.  Keep in mind, understanding for them does not include learning a lesson, in fact, if anything punishment for their atrocities only makes them more determined.  This means normal humans will have to deal with this conservative aberration every few generations in order to keep them in check.
