Bobservations

According to our local weather folks, we are expecting snowstorms, ice storms, rains storms, hailstorms, tornadoes, hurricanes, locusts, frogs falling from the heavens and so much worse by the time Monday rolls around.

I can handle all of that, but what I cannot handle is Carlos’ sudden need to change the temperature from Fahrenheit to Celsius. This morning it was 28-degrees and after he heard that and muttered his standard cold morning “Oh fuck,” he said:

“It’s -2 degrees!”

“No, it’s 28—”

“In Celsius it’s -2!”

“We don’t use Celsius so stop staying that.”

Whispering as he wanders into the bathroom …

“Minus 2, minus 2, minus 2.”

I am gonna lower the temperature of the extra freezer and let Carlos nap in there all weekend and then see him mutter Celsius!

This Tuxedo Says is from August 2021 ...

Is anyone really surprised that after living with me for seventeen years Tuxedo is a liberal?

This week Virginia inaugurated Abigail Spanberger as its first female Governor, and since Blue now controls the state, this was done on Day One:

They have ended police cooperation with Cankles’ ICEstapo.

They passed new laws to combat Cankles’ gerrymandering and eliminated 4 House GOP seats.

They enshrined LGBTQ+ rights and abortion rights into the state’s Constitution.

They protected and expanded voting rights.

They fired GOP appointees to the UVA board.

They reestablished support for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion [DEI].

They accelerated their minimum wage increase.

They voted to build more housing to lower rents.

This is Blue and the Resistance at work and if it sounds good to you, the Vote Blue.

Can someone explain to me why the GOP and Cankles’ Fascist Regime say there is no money for healthcare but loads of cash to buy a foreign country??

Can someone also explain to me why, all of the sudden, there are no more “drug boats” in the Caribbean carrying fentanyl into the US?

And while we’re at it, can someone explain to MarΓ­a Corina Machado that giving away her Nobel Peace to the guy who bombed your country because he wants the oil, and then tried to make himself leader of her country, means she didn’t deserve the prize in the first place?

I love language and always like to use words that may have gone out of fashion, or are from a bygone era, just to keep them alive if only in my brain . But every once in a while I need a new word to add to my vocabulary and this weeks it’s:

Bitchuation

Any situation that forces me to act like a bitch.

And speaking of bitches, Nicki Minaj, who has the IQ of a puppet, went off on Don Lemon and the LGBTQ+ community because Lemon covered the anti-ICEstapo protest at a Minneapolis church over the weekend, saying:

“DON COCK SUCKIN’ LEMON IS DISGUSTING. HOW DARE YOU? I WANT THAT THUG IN JAIL!!!!! HE WOULD NEVER DO THAT TO ANY OTHER RELIGION. LOCK HIM UP.”

First off, dumbass, enough with the Caps Lock. Secondly, get an education before you speak. He didn’t attack a religion, he reported on a pro-ICE minister and you responded with homophobic slurs like an illiterate pig might do. And when Lemon came for Minaj, she doubled-down against the entire LGBTQ+ community:

“LOL!!! And I purposely wrote it that way b/c I knew that would be the only way to get the cock suckers to post about it. They would have all collectively ignored the despicable behavior displayed by Lemon head. I’m glad they’re angry. They’re about to get angrier.”

Oh Nicki, from the LGBTQ+ community: Fuck ALL the way off.

Red baseball caps spoofing those MAGAt hats have become a symbol of Danish and Greenlandic defiance against Cankles threat to seize the frozen territory but they don’t say Make America Great Again, but instead beg Make America Go Away.

My, how far we’ve fallen in the world view since a racist rapist pedophile traitor and con artist took control.

Mitchell Saron is an American fencer who represented America at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris with his big saber so … Would You Hit It?

  3. Here in central Virginia, we are supposed to get walloped with heavy snow, and then an ice storm. I have a gut feeling that we are going to lose power. Spanberger will be a great governor in my opinion, but you wouldn’t believe the amount of push back that people are posting on social media. They make it sound like she will turn the state into a communist hell hole.

  5. Should we manage to have real elections in '28 and take over all 3 branches, the Dems damn well better be ready to move as fast as VA just has to close all the bullshit loopholes the MAGAts have used to tear the US apart, and send the worst of the worst in this regime to prison.
    Never cared for Minaj. At all. She should fade into obscurity and stay there.

    1. I agree! Be like Spanberger! Fix this mess and take not prisoners.
      And maybe deport Minaj.

  6. I think in Celsius as a Canadian and have to do the conversion to Fahrenheit while I'm here. Example it is -31C this morning at home (without windchill factored in) which is about -28F. That ought to give Carlos the shivers. -2C is bordering on light jacket weather for us. :)

  8. Sadly Donald Duck and his sycophants have sadly decreased America's standing in the world. Having a leader with literacy problems and a lack of knowledge about history and geography (and just about everything else) does not look presidential. The Duck needs to go back to school (nursery school that is) so that can keep him occupied while the grownups try and mend what the Duck has broken. As for SS Miller....there is only Borstal.

  9. Can someone also explain to me why, all of the sudden, there are no more “drug boats” in the Caribbean carrying fentanyl into the US?
    Yes, young man, I can easily explain that. There were no fentanyl boats in the first place. I guess it's possible that one or two of those boats were involved in the cocaine trade but that is absolutely no reason to bomb them to smithereens. Instead, the alleged drug traders should have been arrested and tried in a court of law, following careful examination of the evidence. That is the way that civilised countries deal with wrongdoing. Wilful murder of other humans for whimsical reasons is deplorable.

    1. It was a lie to be able to invade a country, make a play for their oil, and line their pockets. It served one purpose: make Cankles and his cronies richer.

      Delete
  10. LOL
    Babes, I feel Carlos. In Centigrades is so much colder!!!

    And of course Cankles and the MAGAts would suddenly stop any bombing of boats in the Caribbean. They got what they wanted. Good thing they did not get Greenland. Cankles went TACO.
    And you know there’s NEVER money, except to line their pockets.
    That last meme? It’s going to last four years.

    Mitchell? Yes, please. Twice during the weekend.

    XOXO

    1. It's almost like the Cankles Regime is admitting to being a bunch of lying nation-building fuckwits.

  11. Sometimes my grandsons will turn my fireplace control into Celsius and although I understand it, I don't want to do conversions in my head. There are STILL people who think Trump made an amazing deal at Davos instead of the reality that he got owned. They live in an alternate universe--very dangerous for this country. (and the world)

    1. Oh, and I'm with you on the celsius. I've lived in the UK for almost 15 years and I still use fahrenheit! Old dogs and all that.

    2. Nicki has given up her gay fans to make a deal for pardoning her husband; she's just about over.
      I have never used Celsius but Carlos thinks in that every so often just to drive me nuts!

  15. Celsius really does make everything sound extra dramatic. I fully support the plan to turn the extra freezer into his personal “temperature conversion think tank.”
    The whole “no money for health care but plenty to shop for countries” routine says everything about the current GOP priorities. Take care, Bob, and stay warm.

    1. Celsius, please.
      I like the “temperature conversion think tank” and may put it into service.
      I am ready to sit in the house under a blanket and read for the next few days!
      Have a good weekend!

  16. I’d be saying what Carlos was saying. It’s Minus Two!!! Nicki Minaj is finally being her true self. She’s never been the brightest bulb, but she reined it in. Now we know what an ignorant cretin she is. Wait until ICE shows up at her door because she’s not the right color for them. I adore the new MAGA hats!
