Just when I thought I was out...

They drag me back in... Well, I was NOT licking my wounds and drowning my hurt fee fees after this site's unexplained ambush of my last post. I actually had to come out of retirement and beautify this town a little. My landlord remembered I was a retired painter and asked if I'd be interested in doing a few small jobs for him. Of course, I wasn't but he's a nice guy and it's always a good idea to keep the landlord happy, so I didn't hesitate to say yes. I find him to be very agreeable, and he encouraged me to take my time and work at my own pace. No pressure. 

I don't remember the last time I had a decent nap! That fucks me up. I spent a couple decades getting up early to enjoy my mornings before making a 7 am start somewhere in Tennessee or Illinois, but being as there was no pressure, a noon start was fine. Not a one of these 'jobsites' was more than 4 minutes away! Small town life. The last one is right outside my door. It's good to know I can still bring it, though it's not the big-time commercial work I spent most of my time doing, it's something to do that I do quite well and I like being my own boss over me.

The List

 It is no longer cute how everything Trump does in his invasion of America is treated as a distraction from the Epstein Files. The reality is, the Epstein Files are a distraction from everything Trump is doing in his invasion of America.  Nothing more will be done about the Epstein files. Everything has already been done. He's dead. She went to prison (for now...). No child-fuckers have been- or will be- arrested.  America- you are putting all your rotten eggs in one deplorable basket. Stop it.  This is a country where the judicial system- by many accounts the greatest in the world- has turned its back on the victims with one move of the goal posts after another. Victim testimony, which generally is damning evidence in criminal trials, doesn't seem to count for much in civil actions, or in any kind of leadup to criminal actions when the wealthy and powerful are involved. It turns out that you have to have a list. Not just any list- THE list.  Geez, without that ...

Her Soft Underbelly Exposed

One of the better interviewers you'll see on YouTube is Mark Laita of the "Soft, White Underbelly" channel. It's my understanding he is primarily a photographer whose interest has always been photographing the unseen segments of society- the street people, prostitutes, criminals and kinda freaks of life, that we generally ignore. Maybe it's all in the editing, but his success seems to be in letting his subjects talk without too much prompting from him. It's their story.  This episode was with a porn star- Addison Vodka. Well, that's what she goes by. Though I have seen my share of porn, I'm not on a first or last name basis with most of these people. So, I fired up the Pornhub to see what she what she was like in action. She does a good job for a girl with such a schpankable bottom. No doubt. But she was an enlightening interview. Twenty-five years old, super cute  and very engaging. Very pleasant. Just nice and very normal considering her path to porn...

Molehills On the Battlefield

An odd exchange with a follower earlier. To another poster I added to his complaint about the recent trend of side-by-side reaction videos They are dumb and pretty much unnecessary. My addition was that I didn't like the ones where someone is telling a joke, and on the other side of the screen is a clip of someone laughing outrageously. Why? And perhaps worse, the split screen is used to tell a story, and the other side is some inexplicable B-roll of some unrelated product being made. Again- why? Are these first world problems? Yes. But I wasn't crying or praying to Trump that these 'creators' be deported to a Sudanese prison. I was just kinda bitching. Is that wrong? To one follower, it was! At first, I wondered if I was reading her wrong. Could someone read my post and take it so seriously? A quick perusal of my bio mentions something about me being a "gifted satirist and sarcasmist". Eh, who reads those things anyways. I also say that "DM's mean yo...
