Bluntness

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

Republican Garbage

Good morning, world!  What ever I had yesterday with the headachy, muscle achy, gee, I think it's time for another nap problems are gone.  Perhaps I had the 18 hour flue.  All I did was bake 2 loaves of bread, work on the book, and take naps.  Things were accomplished, but not as many as I wanted.  

One the best films I saw last year was Nope.  Soooo many people either didn't understand, or disliked it because it just didn't rub their horror, science fiction, thriller, drama, comedy buttons the right way.  This scene is just one of the many that impressed me so much.  On the big screen, this was amazing.


They finally began to clean out the house next door.  Lots of junk, garbage, and refuse for the landfill.  I think it might have been cheaper to just rent a giant dumpster, since they since labor form moving out of the house, and then loading it on a truck, is probably going to be pricey.  The stack on the far left, I suspect, is what they think they can sell at a flea market, the rest?  Garbage.


We all know that Republican voters are not the smartest and, unfortunately that can also be said for some Democratic voters as wells as Independent voters.  This is because most of the education they receive in school is, well Garbage.  There are people out there who don't know that a Bill is really nothing more than whole lotta words and has no value until it becomes a law.  So, that bill the Republican house passed yesterday is useless, unless the Senate approves it.  Not likely.  Yet the Republicans will always resort to their lies of 'getting things done.'

And that little subcommittee Jim Jordan has put together in a desperate hope to find out what dirt the DOJ has on him and his fellow insurrectionists is going to fail.  This will be obvious once the indictments begin to fall, and I'm hoping they begin to fall shortly.  The mid-terms are over.  The time is now to start throwing out the Republican garbage.

Clarence Thomas? Evil Incarnate?

 Can you believe that it's Wednesday already?  I can't.  I'm scheduled to work an 8-hour shift tomorrow and am not feeling too enthusiastic.

Yesterday was Busy.  Notice the capital B.  I had lunch with my cousin and her husband.  Her birthday's next month, so she's a bit older than me.  When she and I were young our very progressive grandmother took us places, young being around 10 years old.  Taking the two of us on a 2-hour train ride to the Philadelphia Zoo was an undertaking.  Neither one of us remembers the trip in its entirety, but then that was a long, long time ago.

Then, last evening, I went to see Jordan Peele's latest "Nope."  I really liked it.  That being said, my friend thought it dragged and did not like Emerald, the character played by Keke Palmer.  I liked Emerald, a woman wanting to be an authority who learns that survival has not thing to do with authority, a woman who discovers her street smarts might be the wrong smarts if she wants to stay alive.  Casting is excellent.  I liked Bandon Perea as Angel, who learns that staying alive has its own sharp barbs.  Daniel Kaluuya, whose quiet, brooding silence hides his inner strength.  He's much smarter than his sister, Emerald.  "Nope" is not for everybody.  Oh, and in case you're wondering, it is science fiction and there's a lot more action than horror, in fact I didn't think it was scary at all... just very intense.


For those who missed it, yesterday legislation was introduced in the House of Representative which, if passed will limit the tenure of judges on the Supreme Court.  A judge would serve for 18 years and only 18 years and would begin immediately.  This means Clarence Thomas would be retired, as would any other judge who has already served his / her 18 years.  This will probably pass in the House if voted on quickly enough.  Democrats will need to win at least 2 more seats in the Senate to get it passed there.  This means you need to vote Blue this fall.

And finally, another leak, so to speak.  Evidently beer boy Kavanaugh was on the fence regarding the Dobb's decision, however the early leak of Alito's draft listing him as voting with the majority killed the chances of that happening, something about his selling out to the Liberals.  With this knowledge, I'm betting the leak originated with Thomas, or more likely his sow Ginni.  I do think quite a few believed this was the case.  Now, more than ever, the two of them do seem to be evil incarnate.
