Unworthy

The story of the film so far:  woman puts money into a lottery machine, gets bumped by rude asshole, accidentally pushes the wrong button on the machine and gets a single (and expensive) card, different from the cheap ones she normally plays.  Okay, that kinda sucks.

Then she does the scratchy thing and discovers that her “accidental” card has just given her a $10 million payout.

Hooray, hoorah and all that.

But here’s where the story takes a nasty turn:

Edwards said she is going to use her winnings to buy a house and start a nonprofit organization.

Oh FFS.

Let’s start at the top.

  1. That $10 million turns to $5 million immediately, as the FedGov and the Golden Shower State take their respective pounds of flesh off the top;
  2. Being a Los Angeles County prisoner resident, she’s going to have to drop about $2 million if she wants to get anything more than a two-bed / one-bath bungalow;
  3. If she doesn’t invest the remaining millions properly, she won’t have enough income to afford the property taxes on that big new house, unless she wants to keep working at (rough guess) the DMV for the rest of her life;
  4. And all that’s after the res’ of da fambly — some of whom she never knowed was fambly — comes calling with their hands out (her first name is LaQuedra:  connect the dots);
  5. So much for the non-profit.

She could always start a non-profit and pay herself a decent salary as the president thereof;  but the salaries for the rest of the staff (all fambly) will drain her coffers dry within at most two years — and the IRS takes a dim view of that kind of thing, anyway.

None of this is important to me — it’s not my money and well done to her, I say — but it’s a good example of stupid people pissing away their good fortune.

So let’s waltz into the news, such as it is.



but the real bad news came when he discovered that Amazon’s cheap medical plan didn’t cover heart attacks.


because it stopped people from smoking, right?



and:


quelle surprise.


because MAGA rallies always end in riots, looting and burning buildings, you see.


thus answering the old question:  “If guns are banned, can we use swords?”


I think we’ve all had orgasms like that at least once before.  And speaking of orgasms:


LOL, Professor Reynolds.

And as for (non-linked) INSIGNIFICA:

And in that vein:

Also, to be politically correct, let’s not leave out our Asian models:

Crash Diet

Well, I suppose that’s one way of losing weight:

“For the first time, this generation is going to go into a store and not be able to get what they want.  And we have a very entitled generation that has never had to sacrifice.”

I don’t know how much credence to give this alarm — I can’t vouch for the source and quite frankly, I find it hard to believe anyone these days — but having just paid $106 to fill my Tiguan over the weekend, I’m still in shock so all the stuff on the article seems plausible.

Worse till, even if it’s halfway true, there’s going to be a whole bunch of pain going on, and the current Maladministration is going to make things worse and not better, before we can try to correct it in November.

And in that vein, let’s lead off with this:


to which I say, “Amen”.


so nice to see that we’ve reverted to the word’s original and proper meaning (happy, joyous, etc.) instead of as shorthand for “homosexual”.


small wonder the Democrats are trying to decriminalize child abuse:  it preserves their funding sources.


apparently this was done as mockery.  I hope that’s true.



key word:  “Wales”.


key word:  “Scotland”Still would like to have been there, though:  sounds like a decent party.

Dept. of Covidiocy Update:


of COURSE it could.


to the surprise of precisely… nobody.  Just in passing, does anyone remember that in WWII Britain, crimes of this sort were punishable by hanging?

maybe that would represent an improvement for NYfC, I dunno.  And:

am I the only one who thinks that this punishment is somewhat… excessive?

Dept. Of Wokeism:

Train Smash Update:

seems to me that she needs to get a mind job before changing her boobs, but that’s just my opinion.


I’m assuming with five different men, at least(Parallel thought:  would an MFM encounter count as one time, or two?)

And in INSIGNIFICA today:

   


you’ve heard of the word “cornucopia”?  This guy was a “pharmacopia”.


as she returns to favor, although she’s definitely not as sexy as she was before (proof):

And that’s the news, gawd help us.
