Bobservations

Over the weekend, we traveled out to DSW for new shoes. I needed some new summery kicks—that’s them below; cute, no?—and Carlos wanted a pair of boots for working in the yard. As I wandered the aisles, I came upon a small selection of … Gird your loins Maddie … Croc slippers. Carlos loves his Croc slippers but the fleece lining on his old pair have disintegrated and he can’t find replacements. So, being the good husband, no matter how much I detest Crocs—and, as a reminder, Carlos is not allowed off our property in said Crocs—I told him about the Croc slippers and he raced back to the display and scoured the boxes:

“They don’t have my size.”

I pointed to a :::gasp::: Camouflage pair.

“Well, did you check the sizes on these?”

“Camouflage? Do you think I’m some kinda camouflage Croc wearing hillbilly?”

“Oh, honey, no. You’re a regular Croc wearing hillbilly.”

Sadly—or, in my case, happily—they did not have his size, so we dodged a Croc bullet.

You can start reading again, Maddie!

Tuxedo has a big FU for all the GQPers who are telling corporations to stay out of politics while taking donations from corporations and also while being big ass hypocrites. Tuxedo don’t suffer no fools.

You see, the GQP has ranted about so-called Cancel Culture forever, and yet now they want you to break your Keurig, burn your Nikes, turn off CNN, stop watching baseball or football or basketball or NASCAR, don’t shop at Walmart, Target, Kohl’s, Nordstrom, or Macy’s, don’t drink Coke, or Starbucks, don’t watch HBO or Netflix and don’t eat Oreos.

The Party of Hypocrisy at work.

Over Easter weekend some people on the right freaked all the way out because Dr. Jill Biden wore fishnets in public.

This is the same group of people who had nothing to say about seeing Melanie's vagina.

Carry on.

Ramsey Solutions, owned by Christian nutjob and radio host Dave Ramsey, is no longer one of the best places to work in America after Inc. magazine dropped them from its 2020 “Best Workplaces” list after the company was sued by a former employee, Caitlin O’Conner, for discrimination.

O’Connor was fired after applying for family leave because she was pregnant. In court documents, Ramsey said O’Connor, who is not married, was fired for having premarital sex, which violated the company’s “righteous living” policy.

Clearly Dave Ramsey is a fucking loon. He is a religious wingnut and rabid anti-masker and is suing a Florida hotel, claiming they cost him millions because he canceled a convention there over their mask policy.

Now, I need someone to look into Dave Ramsey, because anyone who spends so much time worrying if his employees are having pre-marital sex probably has a closet filled with skeletons.

I have a friend who owns guns, but in the wake of the recent shootings, thought better of being what I would call “over armed.” He decided to sell his guns back to the government, but after a thorough background check, he realized the buyer has a history of violence and is mentally unstable and has opted to have the weapons destroyed.

Montana Governor Greg Gianforte, who rescinded the state’s mask mandate weeks after taking office, has tested positive for COVID-19.

Sorry, asshat, not sorry.

It’s not clear how he contracted the virus or if he has infected others, but six members of the state legislature have also tested positive since January.

Greg Gianforte; Superspreader.

Isn’t it ironic … while serving in the Florida Legislature, Matt Gaetz opposed a bill meant to stop people from sharing sexually explicit images of their ex-lovers? Matt Gaetz believed that recipients of those images had a right to share them. And now we know why he opposed the bill. So he could open his phone in the US Congress and show naked pictures of his ALLEGED conquests.

Former state Representative, and Republican, Tom Goodson, who sponsored legislation to outlaw this “revenge porn” and says:

“Matt was absolutely against it. He thought the picture was his to do with what he wanted. He thought that any picture was his to use as he wanted to, as an expression of his rights.”

Pigs gonna pig.

Rumor has it that Caitlyn Jenner might run, for governor of California, and is being assisted by Caroline Wren, a longtime GQP fundraiser, she met through her work with the American Unity Fund, a GQP nonprofit focused on LGBT issues, but …

Carolina Wren previously worked at [_____] Victory, a joint fundraising committee for the twice impeached, one term loser’s failed 2020 campaign. Wren more importantly, helped organize the rally he addressed immediately before the insurrection at the US Capitol on January 6, 2021.

That’s all you need to know about Wren and Jenner.

Jake Moyle. Actor and dancer, who has appeared in everything from Rocketman to Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again to Mary Poppins Returns.

He’s not what you might call classically handsome, but there’s something in the smile and the hair and the body. Had I known he was shaking his groove thing in Mamma Mia or Poppins I might have gone to see them.
