world war iii

Posted on by admin

Well, he’s gone and done it. He’s going to kill us all. The first thing Iran is going to do is shut down the Strait and up go oil prices, which has a knock-on effect and we’re all fucked. They’re not as weak as Iraq or Afghanistan and the States couldn’t win there either, and with competent leaders, let alone these bumbling fuck-sticks.

It’s only a matter of time now.

I thought I did it here. But here is a Friday night, and there’s too much going on to forget.

Or too much going on to remember.

Early onset Alzheimer’s is a bitch.

blood pressure

This new drug is not working. I weened off the other stuff and into this new one and it is not doing the trick.

Things are worse than they’ve been since before I started taking anything.

I think my doctor might be trying to kill me, through negligence, if not actual malice.

so begins kindness and horror

Posted on by admin

The first draft of Father Lightning is begun.

The mix of horror, gore and love and kindness will hopefully make for a great story.

At the very least, it will help me better understand the concept of the latter.

chilifest

Posted on by admin

Today, it’s all about the beans.

And the heat.

And driving Amherstburg to drink boozy hot chocolate and judge between eight different chili makers.

That sweet, sweet chili powder.

Oh, and we’re bringing the dogs.

No, sorry, just keeping. We’re not religious over here.

It’s just a lazy Saturday. FINALLY.

how far does this go?

Posted on by admin

I’m a pacifist, but if things keep escalating this way, I think there’s no chance of avoiding some kind of civil war (or world war 3, but hopefully not that).

I mean, how much more will the people take before they start dragging the ultra-rich from their houses, or turning on each other in senseless violence? How long before guillotines come back to the fore?

I hope sanity prevails before that, or that Donald Trump would have either a) an epiphany or b) a medical emergency that requires him to step down.

No one under him is really any better, but one would have to assume that with the Orange Fuhrer, the cult of personality would break down. I can’t see the masses following Vance or Noem or Hegseth the way they follow Trump.

They don’t have the mystique; whatever bizarre aura keeps people from imposing any kind of consequence on him, something that would have ended all of this right then and there if they had to courage do it when when it was still slumlording in the Seventies and Eighties, or financial corruption, or making fun of a disabled person, or any of the other smaller crimes he was allowed to get away with under the ruse of decorum and impartiality, that made him feel invincible, to himself and his followers, and led us to this.

Consequences, people. Early, often, proportionate enough to be a deterrent without shooting everyone who steals a paperclip.

Think about it.

do you think anything can save us?

Posted on by admin

I mean, a little kindness, a little leeway, some understanding, could go a long way.

Effort.

Just a bit of effort.

Be nice to people.

It’s not that hard.
