Bobservations

The other night as we ate dinner, the kids of the family who live behind us were playing in their yard, and as kids do there was a lot of shrieking and screaming and laughing and yelling which spurred Carlos:

“I’m going to call over there and ask them to quiet down those kids.”

“No you are not. When I was that age [and these kids were 12 and 10 or so] we used to play with our friends and scream and shriek and yell.”

“Well, I don’t like it.”

“That’s because when you were an only child and at that age you were probably wearing a tutu and giving a piano recital.”

His sly smile told me I was probably correct.

This Tuxedo Says is from October 2020:

Tuxedo has discovered Twitter and really enjoys finding people’s Tweets and sharing them. This is one of his Favorites …

The owner of an Idaho bar and restaurant plans to host a two-day “Hetero Awesome Fest” outside of the state Capitol in Boise in June to coincide with LGBTQ Pride Month because there is no more oppressed group in the entire world who need a celebration to stoke their egos than straight people.

I may start a GoFundMe for them, but I’ll call it a GoFuckYourself.

After that last snippet, I’m’a need me some Summertime Beach Cakes to cleanse my palate.

Let’s try this again … because of the tariffs there are fewer ships arriving from China which means less work for dock workers … for truck drivers … for retailers and fewer dollars circulating.

It’s a cascading effect and will affect all of us.


RuPaul’s Drag Race icon Jinkx Monsoon, left, is eligible to be nominated for a Tony Award in the category, “Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role in a Musical” for her performance in the musical ‘Pirates.’

Yes ma’am.

On the flip side, we lost the wonderful Jiggly Caliente, right, AKA Bianca Castro-Arabejo this past week.

May I call you Jiggly.

RIP

This is model Brennan Aldred and I don’t know how old he is or where he’s from or much of anything else so we’re flying blind here but: Would You Hit It?

  1. Poor Carlos. Tell him to not act like the old lady we all knew. But it is a funny story!

    I long said Jinkx would be the first nominated for a Tony!!!!

    And your correct about the tariffs. Ups has already said they are to lay off 20,000 in addition to other companies doing the same. At least the dump can be proud of what his unemployment figures will be. Mind you, Biden how the lowest in years.

    And Idaho, it would figure. Spare me the sorrow from this pitiful creature. But Bob I'd more, more than happy to give to your GoFuckYourself fund!!!

  3. That hetero fest will die the same death as their straight pride did last year, or was it the year before? Brennan's a pass. And all kids are loud, all exuberance and no volume control.

    1. Kids are kids ... I'd rather have them playing and screaming than being terrorists!

  4. We have kids like that in our neighborhood. It's annoying until I remember how people would offer me a quarter if I could keep my mouth shut for 5 minutes.
    Now, now...let the Incels have their day. It still won't help them get laid.

  5. Sorry to say, but God is wrong; those were MS 13 tattoos. We know this because the ever truthful Donald Duck told us so in an interview that was beyond embarrassing.

    🤭 OK, Carlos, let's look at the future, shall we? A neighborhood of happy kids squealing until they get tired or bored and find another, quieter activity OR a neighborhood of happy kids who enjoy tormenting that crotchety old guy who can't handle noise. 🤔 Does your house look good in toilet paper? 😘
    Speaking of crotchety...I am damned tired of living in a country being led by an ignorant, stubborn, narcissistic, syphilitic-brained megalomaniac with no face-painting skill and a full diaper!! 🤡💩🤬
    On the other hand, Tuxedo Rocks!! 😻🤘

    1. We have too many trees; the toilet paper would be an epic prank!!
      I'd hope Tuxedo would have run for president.

  8. I wonder if there are any photos of Carlos at the piano in his tutu. Brennan Aldred? Handsome. Greek god–like. Definitely too young.

    1. I think those photos might have been destroyed in the Great Tutu Fire of 1964.
      Brennan is too young ... sigh.

  10. Wearing a tutu???
    That was THE DREAM.
    And the hetero festival is a nothingburger. MAGATs really crave attention, no??
    And you left me in the mood with those cakes and with Brennan's chi-chis.

    Love that for Jinxx. So sad about Bianca...

    XOXO

    1. I loved the news about Jinkx as much as I loathed the news about Jiggly.
      I don't think Carlos was in a tutu but he didn't actually deny it ...

    Tuxedo knows ! And up in cat heaven he knows and sees everything !
    Sad that things haven’t changed much in Idaho since the Boys of Boise scandal of 1955, you think that they would learn.
    Brennan Aldred is like a kouros of Ancient Greece brought to life.

  12. I think Tuxedo would need to add IQ45 to that calculation...though it would be close.

  13. Excellent exchange with Carlos-LOL! I would say that 47 is a bigger a-hole than McConnell although they are both huge ones. I've heard that Port of Seattle is pretty much empty. :(

  14. The Felon's inability to accept that the picture of Kilmar Abrego Garcia's knuckles had been crudely photoshopped in an act of right wing mischief was as breathtaking as it was dumb. God help us!

    1. It just shows he believes anything that the people he pays to kiss his ass tell him. A circle of idiocy.

  18. Well done you for shutting Carlos down on those kids! When I worked in central Geneva on a Wednesday afternoon when the kids didn't have school we could hear them laughing and screaming in the playground. We took bets on how long it would take the old lady opposite to start yelling at them to shut up! Hey lady, you were young once (I imagine) so give them a break!

    I hope our Prime Minister can educate the donald quack when they meet, but not holding my breath. At least donny is speaking well about him. We will not cave to donny boy and I think he knows it. He is getting a bit worried about his crashing economy but still can’t understand that it is all his fault. It will take a very long time, maybe never to undo the damage orange asshole has done between our countries but most Americans are not feeling it yet. Gigi

    1. You cannot teach The Felon anything because he knows it all but remember it's not Americans doing this to you and the world, it's American Republicans and fascists.
