Weak and Lazy

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—Because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—Because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—Because I was not a Jew. Then they … Continue reading Weak and Lazy →

Allred’s a Punk

Collin Allred is running against Ted Cruz for senate this year. I didn't watch the debate this week because I have no intention of voting for Allred, although I did hear clips on the radio box this morning. Allred is a magic negro along the lines of Barack Obama. In Grampa Joe's own words - … Continue reading Allred’s a Punk →

Here We Go Again

Now that the conventions are over, the bands and singers are kvetching that their music was used over the sound systems. Seems ok when democrats do it. Republicans? Notsomuch. They weren't asked, so a hissy is in order. The latest few are Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters and Beyonce. It's the same thing every … Continue reading Here We Go Again →

Let the Games Begin

This is after a week of gaslighting, making Kamala Harris the bestest candidate evarrrr! We are told it was always thus, and the people loved her. Sure. Remember this? https://youtu.be/WabvabWvv8k?si=HZOfLP8F8Kbr4mZX An epic throat slit shanking on live TV. You see, Harris' specialty was locking up soul brothers for weed, keeping them in prison longer than … Continue reading Let the Games Begin →

They Said Hurty Words

Apparently the imbecilic head of the secret service, Kimberly Cheatle, fell on her sword after getting roughed up in congress. I don't think that was her plan, originally. Personally, I think they should've brought in Aesop for the hammering: Somebody made the decision to half-ass Trump's protective detail all along. Somebody made the decision, despite multiple requests … Continue reading They Said Hurty Words →

TDS in the Wild

I joined Facebook again a few months ago, mostly because that's how many in my family communicate. I also like the feeds for Vice Grip Garage and other YouTubers I watch. I have few friends on it. I click-through on nothing. There's little on it but pics of me that are on the interwebs elsewhere, … Continue reading TDS in the Wild →

Earworm

What makes you play Linkin Park over and over like a mental patient? https://youtu.be/tYjNupUBEP0?si=aJULElswTLdhlwst Telling me to goBut hands beg me to stayYour lips say that you loveYour eyes say that you hate There's truth in your lies, doubt in your faithWhat you build, you lay to wasteThere's truth in your lies, doubt in your … Continue reading Earworm →

Happy Earf Day!

As usual, earth day snuck up on me. As PJ O'Rourke once said he did, I celebrated it by snacking high on the food chain and mixing all my recycling into the garbage. I went out to burn some hydrocarbons with the hot rod bike. I had a far different post planned and mostly written … Continue reading Happy Earf Day! →

An Interesting Observation

I had good friend call me the other night. He goes dark for weeks at a time sometimes, and then emerges to catch up on what’s been going on. He said he was worried about me. Turns out his son nearly died over the New Year’s holiday. He got married very early, and after four … Continue reading An Interesting Observation →

Welcome to 2024

Gonna be a great year, Tater. At least I think so. Could hardly be worse than 2023, that's for sure. Now that I'm setup in the new place, I can reflect on where I am and where I'm going. The house is closed, and gone, Money in the accounts. There is nothing tethering me to … Continue reading Welcome to 2024 →
