Horrible, unpleasant stuff

Obituary

Bad News, Conservatism, Politics

When they write the obituary of the Republican Party and, for that matter, the republic itself, they may as well just use this lament in its entirety.

Raised to be a Republican, I held my nose and voted for Bush, the Texas-talking blue blood from Connecticut who lied us into 2 wars and gave us the unpatriotic Patriot Act. I voted for McCain, the sociopathic neocon songbird “hero” that torpedoed the attempt to kill the Obamacare that’s killing my family financially. I held it again and voted for Romney, the vulture capitalist skunk that masquerades as a Republican while slithering over to the Democrat camp as often as they’ll tolerate his oily, loathsome presence.
And I voted for Trump, who, if he did nothing else, at least gave a resounding Bronx cheer to the richly deserving smug hypocrites of DC. Thank you for that Mr. President, on behalf of all of us nobodies. God bless you for it.
And now I have watched as people who hate me and mine and call for our destruction blatantly and openly stole the election and then gaslighted us and told us that it was honest and fair. I am watching as the GOP does NOTHING about it. They’re probably relieved that upstart Trump is gone so they can get back to their real jobs of lining their pockets and running interference for their corporate masters. I am watching as the media, in a manner that would make Stalin blush, is silencing anyone who dares question the legitimacy of this farce they call democracy. I know, it’s a republic, but I am so tired of explaining that to people I might as well give in and join them in ignorance.

I think she’s speaking for all of us.

Interesting Take

Bad News, Marxists

Here’s a mordant look at our near future:

Nothing will be fair about the coming fight.  It’s no use whining about the other side’s lack of principles, its lies, hypocrisy, unfairness, ruthlessness, and control of virtually every important institution.  They’re evil totalitarians, what the hell do we expect?  Their principle is absolute power and they’ll do whatever is necessary to acquire and keep it.
…
The demonstrators who entered the Capitol could have been murdered en masse.  Any expectation that their murderers would receive justice from the Corruptocracy would be delusional naiveté.
No more foolishness or naiveté.  Any supposedly peaceful protest will be infiltrated by agent provocateurs bent on making trouble for our cause (including the protests being advertised for next week).  The totalitarians will do what they do until they’re completely defeated.  This is war, which calls for the unremitting exercise of cold, ruthless rationality.  We will administer justice and show mercy when appropriate, but we will expect or receive neither from the other side.
Let’s get on with it.

‘Twas always thus with the Left, starting with the Montagnards and Jacobins of the French Revolution and on through Communist Russia into modern-day Venezuela and Cuba.  Any expectation of fair play or conscience from these bastards is, as the man said, delusional naiveté.

I wonder if they have any idea what’s coming.  Hell, I wonder if we have any idea what’s coming.

News Roundup

Bad News

Short and not so sweet, even though it’s the weekend:


…more warnings from “experts”.  Feel free to ignore, as I will.


…I’m just surprised, based on what I saw in Brussels many years ago, that it’s as low as that.


…you mean, into still-greater chaos.  The situation, in a nutshell:


…but you would get rather different results if the sample was drawn from “Big Tech management”.


…yeah, good luck with that, Murdoch-spawn.


…and in your case, that would be entirely true.


…what I don’t like about this is that I’d also be added to the list just for calling a Democrat congressman a Commie cocksucker when he sat down next to me.


…

And finally:


…you filthy animal, subjecting your poor girlfriend to such punishment.  Also:

…so I’ll just put a random [uh-huh]  pic in here to highlight the man’s predicament [sic] :

Commentary will be short, like Mrs. Borat.


…which means I’m pretty much fucked, then.

And in a (possibly) unrelated event:


…Covid, cancer, HPV, whatever;  you’re always gonna be at risk with this creature anywhere near your zip code.


…not an actual headline, just LOL.


…and as they say:  “Owe the bank ten thousand dollars, you have a problem.  Owe the bank $300 million, and THEY have a problem.”


…ya think?

And speaking of imbeciles:


…I actually know the solution to this, and it doesn’t involve shooting all the Colorado Democrat lawmakers.  It does, however, require shooting all ex-California transplants / refugees in Colorado, but someone’s doubtless going to have a problem with this.


…ah yes, those were the days, when men were men and not sorta-women reminiscing about when they were still men.


…uh huh.  He’ll just go with the old-time Democrat initiatives like higher taxes, civilian disarmament, more regulations and such.


…a.k.a. First World Problem, as can be seen in the pic below of this hellhole (right-click to embiggen):


…uhhhh I’ve got some news for you, son:


…I think we’re gonna have all the weapons we need, as the Biden Brigade will find out when they try mass confiscations.  (And yeah, I know that’s not what he meant.)

And lastly:


…no link because you’ll probably want to eat at some point today.  Instead, here’s a home-decoration idea:

…or else, a blast from the past:

Apologia

Bad News

In everyday terms, it’s called “stupidity”, “absentmindedness” or “careless”.

For all the Readers who emailed me to ask if I was okay, following the weekend’s late / non-existent posts, let me reassure you that I’m fine, just an idiot.

You see, the post that appeared on Sunday was actually supposed to appear on Saturday, only Idiot Kim scheduled the wrong date for it — hence the radio silence on Saturday — and yesterday’s post about… well, never mind, it’s too late now and will appear next Sunday.

And today’s New Roundup wasn’t completed, either — it sat completed, but Idiot Kim Pt. II hadn’t hit the “Update” button.   Please go back and see the completed version, which has a bikini pic.

This time, it’s not Hosting Matters’ fault, but mine all mine, I tell ya.

Personally, I blame the Democrats.

Normal blogging service will resume after a gallon of coffee.

With commentary shorter than a female hobbit.


…long on warning, short on details, e.g. how long should you abstain from that single malt?  One day, two weeks, forever?  (If forever, count me out:  I’ll take my chances with the Chinkvirus.)


…and yet (speaking of sculptures of giant cunts) I find this less disgusting than the idea of adding Obama to Mount Rushmore.


…remind me again how wonderful modern cars are.


…and while you’re there, remind me again how much I hate the music business.


…our latest entry in the “guess the scumbag’s race” competition.  Also from Chicago:

(that would be 0.35% in the blue dot, btw:  14 out of 4,018)


…with the predictable outcome.  What makes this interesting is that the rozzers arrested and imprisoned the wrong people for the murders.

Veganuary and Dry January?
…oh dear, I forgot.  Which reminds me, I need to slice up the biltong and get a fresh case of gin.


…even allowing for Titsy’s hyperbole, I still got a thrill running down my leg.


…which reminds me of the old bridge joke:  “If you’ve got a good hand, you don’t need a partner.”

And finally…


…wait, Roller Girl is 50?  OMG I’m getting really old.
