Why Is It ...

… that rightwingnuts tell me that if I don’t like Jason Aldean’s gun-toting ambiguously racist filmed on a lynching site video and song, then I don’t need to watch it or listen to it?  But if I same the same thing to them about books—if you don’t like certain books, don’t read them—they don’t understand the hypocrisy?

… that Tori Spelling and the five children she shares with her soon-to-be-ex Dean McDermott appear to be living at a $100-a-night motel in the Los Angeles area? Is it because she’s filming another reality show, Tori Does Skid Row?

… a federal judge has refused to allow Florida’s drag ban to go back into effect after an earlier ruling placed a temporary injunction against it?  Is it because the judge knows that drag is art and as such is protected as Free Speech? Go see a drag show, Florida, it’ll take your mind off the fascist you elected governor.

… that Large Marge is all over Twitter saying she will never stop fighting to protect kids, but says not one single word about the so-called men of faith who are raping children in churches? Is it because in church child rape is acceptable to the GOP?

… that the state of Florida wants to teach children that enslaved people benefited from slavery because they learned a trade?

… Miranda Lambert pitched a fit when people took selfies while she sang? I mean, she got her coins and, no disrespect, it’s Miranda Lambert. Does anyone really wanna hear her sing?

... that some days I realize I'm surrounded by idiots, and other days I realize that it's not just some days?

... that the GOP wants so-called pornography, in the form of LGBTQ+ literature, removed from libraries, but cheer when Large Marge shows pornographic, private images in Congress?

  1. I wanna hear Miranda sing. Big fan here. But I can get behind the realization of being surrounded by idiots not just some days. It's why I'm such a loner, prefer my own company as opposed to interacting with others, except for when I must or need some good tea/gossip.

    1. I'm no fan of hers but I wonder why she reacted the way she did, because those women taking the selfies weren't hijacking the show; I'd have been more annoyed about them bothering the people around them with their selfie-mess.

  2. Your second to last bullet summarizes perfectly all of the other points in your post.

  3. All of that, and I think I need to lie down and clear my mind now.

  4. I don't much care about country music, so no big loss there!
    Tori who???
    Ron wants to be king 👑 😆
    Large Marg and Bobo ... 🤦 How the hell did they even get a picture of Hunter's penis ... are they sure it's even his? Is his name tattooed on the shaft?
    I am sick of the GOP stupidity and wish they would get Thing 45 off the goddamned street!

    1. I think Casey wants to be King and she thinks Ronnie's just the bitch to get her there. I've always felt like she runs that show.

  6. You should know by now Bob that anything decried by the Repugnant party is bad and anything they love (like guns) is good! We've got it all wrong and we should learn from Margarine and your favourite ex-prez.

  7. Large Marge is hypocrite. She says she wants to protect kids and supposedly it's conservative and believes in the sanctity of marriage and love. But what does she do,? Has three affairs from people at the gym she works out with, her marriage crumbles and then she shares pornography, mind you on her job and in Congress! Yep such a good role model for kids. More sad is that Congress let her get away with it what shows you to type of people that are in the building whether. And why is it people worry that I'm worried where this country is going?

  10. I think it's summed up by my favorite movie line, "My boy, we are pilgrims in an unholy land." ~ Prof. Henry Jones in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Hope y'all are having a great weekend, sweetpea! xoxo

  11. I am surrounded by these people and I can't win. All I can do is carry on. I am forced to believe child rape is acceptable to Republicans because they say nothing about it while they rage over the sexualization of children by drag queens. I don't care about Hunter Biden. He got in trouble. He's worked it out with the IRS. Whatever. He's not trying to overthrow the government and neither is his father. I also don't want to see naked photos of either one of them. My concern lies with my fear of Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis.

    Love,

  12. Hypocrisy? Stupidity? I don't know anymore except that I'm terrified by the power they wield to sway the ignorant.

    1. I'm terrified by the number of ignorant people who are so easily swayed.

    2. Ditto to both comments. It is terrifying. I'm also concerned about those who don't seem concerned or terrified about any of it!

  13. You are surrounded by idiots. Even here, in Centrist PA, I'm surrounded by idiots.

    1. I probably should have noted that they are all rhetorical.

  17. Why is it?... Indeed. I wonder about so many of these things every day now, there's no end to the wondering in fact. Is this the Zombie Apocalypse actually happening? Becoz so many have become Brain Dead among our Citizenry and are becoming Violent towards those of us who have not, wanting to force everyone to end up just like them.

    I do believe I enjoy this segment more than your Hollywood gossip post.
