Billionaire Perks

 War makes strange bedfellows. Politics does too, of course. No surprise that the two have always been so intertwined.  I watch a lot of YouTubes. There are so many stories out there that layout how connected the world is; what makes us tik and tok as humans. One guy I have found interesting is a former Army Ranger sniper, known as "The Reaper". This African American, now-Rastafarian looking fella is one of the most laidback professional killers you will ever see. He's very lowkey and matter of fact about his wartime experiences. He's got that thousand-yard stare and he came by it honestly. Not all of the Special Forces bro's you'll find on YT do. SEAL's, for instance, tend to create and embellish stories, like actors do on talk shows so that they might be invited back. Reaper is more matter of fact, honest and blunt.  One podcast he noted that he and a few other Rangers entered a room where their Afghani tribal allies were having sex with boys. This is ac...

By the Rules

 The one good thing that has come out of the Trump presidencies has been that he has shown that absolutely anyone  can be president. Most should not, but if Trump can get in, you can't disqualify anyone for any reason. He set the bar low, for sure, but how could there be a bar at all after him? People like to handicap potential presidential candidates all the time, just like sports fans do with ballplayers. The only thing worse than political punditry is sports punditry.  The latter is more brutal and soul and psyche stealing than politics. Get on a fan site and see sometime. Better yet, don't! Those people are fucking insane.  Even though we are currently watching democracy being murdered in the streets and on TV, people are talking about who the next democratic  president should be. Or shouldn't be. Oh, sure- all this horrible fascist, Project 2025 shit is just what republicans are doing on their term. They are unpopular and we'll take over on downs, just as w...

America in the Rough. Are You Ready?

 WEE DOGGIES there are some hardcore miscreants on Facebook! Maybe you knew that. They have really come out in force after the frequent ICE murders of immigrants. Those killings are really gaining in popularity even when they entail the murders of white, pretty obvious Americans like Alex Pretti and Renee Good. The maga are rationalizing their deaths just as they do those of the immigrants they have been trained to hate so much. We've been fearing a shootin' war, but it has already been here for a while. Well, it's always been here since the founding of the nation. It's just now social medially acceptable to kill white people.  Of all the tragic thinking humans can conjure up in their oft-feeble minds, the notion that it is acceptable to take a person's life for the possible commission of a misdemeanor  is most obscene. If you are in the know, you know that entering the US *illegally* is a misdemeanor. It's a civil offense, not criminal. You have to pay a fine l...

Blowing Hot Air

 Though my name isn't Luca, I live on the second floor. Because of that location, I have access to the attic here. The ceilings are low and I'm tall, so I reached up to pop the access panel and replace it with a screen in the interest of science and maybe utility savings. The screen would keep birds and bats out of my apartment. Probably wouldn't happen, but why find out? The landlord and I posited that in the summer the opening might be a sort of 'chimney' allowing warm air to escape naturally up and out of my place. The theory is that warm air rises and cooler, dense air doesn't. It's not just a theory it's true, so don't fight me on this. You will lose. Or will you? We are in another round of 90 degree days, and I've had the access open for a few, but really could not see any difference in cooling. Well, until last night. Though the sun was long gone, the heat was beating down. This area is a busy little intersection I frequent on my way to th...

Civil War Part 2; Electric Boogaloo

 Now, back to the film. It was interesting, perhaps made more so by not being overly ambitious. We are never told why the US is in a civil war, and unlike the first American Civil War, I can tell you without a doubt that "It's NOT about slavery!" It mightcould be about states' rights though as the main opposition force are the states of California and Texas; "The Western Forces". Imagining a scenario where those two disparate states join forces might be a stretch, but maybe not. Were California a country, it would be the 5th largest economy in the world. Texas is Texas and just has always been bigger than life because it says so. We never learn why they woke up one day and chose violence, but the president is played by Nick Offerman and that should be a clue as to how that happened. It's a small role really and whether he is Trumpy or not is never really explored, but you can bet he never tried to implement Universal Healthcare to get in this fix.  The i...

Civil War

 I took a second look at 2024's, "Civil War" last night because I've been thinking a lot lately of how quickly the US could go south under this asshole regime and wondering how it might happen. As awful as each regime member is from Trump on down, the obvious fact that not a one of them is the least bit competent in any way concerning their position (or any task they might be given) might be the most alarming. We know they are thieves and whores, and all are getting richer. Trump's a billionaire, probably for the first time in his sordid career as a millionaire pretending to be a billionaire. He likes it. He wants more. They always do. He's a narcissist and a victim who can never have enough money to fill the emptiness of his soul. We get that, yada, yada, yada. Fuck that guy, right? The thing is, despite world wars and depressions, assassinations and all sorts of big country strife, America always went on and we knew it would. America knew what to do. She wou...

It's a Person's World

 I've been thinking about sex lately. Like, what's in it for women, and does it have a future for both men and women- in the together sphere?  I'm having my doubts. Women are out there choosing bears (metaphorically, I suspect) and it seems like there are good reasons for that. Most of us fellas do appear to be rapey jerks who really don't like women all that much. When I first heard the term, "cum receptacle" it was on The Oprah Winfrey Show, back in the 90's. Now, in the Year of Our Lard, 2026, I'm almost surprised that the female gender hasn't been reclassified as 'cum receptacle'. Women are getting scant respect and when they do, it generally seems to be when it's necessary to advance the white, male agenda.  I'm not so sure that they even need us for the fun stuff, let alone the procreation portion of life's program. That sperm and egg thing can be done artificially. I saw the other night that only 18 to 20% of women can ha...
