Quick Sunday ramble

Are you getting bombarded with money raising pleas on YouTube from the Democratic Senatorial candidate in Texas, James Talarico?

 I am. 

I can't stand his opponent, Ken Paxton and would never vote for the GOP candidate if I lived in Texas but there is something really nauseating about Talarico too, his hand gestures seem forced and disingenuous.

Sick of him asking me for a dollar.

Ossoff I like, I will send him a dollar.

Another phenomenon I am not quite ready for is the shuffle dance. I see it on YouTube shorts, mostly from Electronic Dance Festivals.

Looks like a hell of a cardio workout but exactly what drugs are these people on?

More than 1 million children lost access to food benefits after Trump bill passed - way to go starve the children and fire all the food inspectors until everybody else is shitting themselves.

Trump and the narcissistic collapse

Two people I am pretty sick of at this point, Bill Maher and John Fetterman. The final straw with Maher is him championing Bari Weiss, the CBS head who asked her reporters to lie and create false narratives so that the network can go full Maga.

Fetterman is a capo for sure, there is nothing democrat about the guy whatsoever. Independence is one thing but he prides himself on screwing his party members, much like the departed Senator from West Virginia, Joe Manchin. Total dinos, love to be the turd in the punchbowl.

Ever notice how the Fox empire, specifically the New York Post, runs article after article denigrating California? So scripted. I have friends from back east, all worked about the sorry golden state. News for you, we are doing just fine. Don't like it here, move, we won't miss you.
