The refrain of the day is: GET FUCKED, YOU GRIFTING SCUMBAG.
(get fucked, you grifting scumbag)
I went on a walk today to get new gloves; my old ones were fine unless they got wet and then they weren’t as awesome. So I pick up new gloves and I see a homeless person without gloves nearby and I offer my old gloves to them. I have new gloves, they have no gloves, I should feel good about this.
Except I don’t, because when we cut off social services back in the 80’s, we were promised by Ronald Reagan (and his pack of slimewolves) that the private sector and other services would “take up the slack”. They didn’t and now we have an epidemic of poor, suffering, and homeless people.
So to Ronald Reagan, wherever his entity is, be it being roasted slowly black, frozen red and brittle, or having his dick bitten off by snakes, only to have it regrow so that it can be bitten off again, a penis Sisyphus, we say:
Get fucked, you grifting scumbag.
As I’m headed back to work, a truck runs through a puddle, soaking my jeans. This fucking truck is too goddamn big; the cab of a non-commercial pickup should be big enough to hold two people and a dog, or a third person if they want to get real cozy.
If you need to haul more people then you need a van, dickhead, and if you need more equipment than a van can carry then what you really need is a crew and if you have a crew then you are doing a job which means you shouldn’t personally need a vehicle that fucking big.
And the only reason trucks are that big is because back in the 80’s when the regulations were being made, the car industry convinced the gov’t to regulate those vehicles less, making them less safe, sure, but also cheaper to build. So we get a market flooded with unsafe, inefficient vehicles and people wanting bigger and bigger ones so they can see-and can say things like ‘well if I get into an accident at least I’M walking away (you gross fuck)’ all so that the shareholders can get rich.
So we say unto them:
Get fucked, you grifting scumbag.
Speaking of; I don’t know who decided that LEDs the brightness of a tiny sun were a good idea for headlights, but they aren’t. It is actually dangerous to blind people who are trying to drive a car! I realize this might come as new information for some people, but trust me: driving blind is a bad thing.
And so we say unto whomever made this decision:
Get fucked, you grifting scumbag.
When I get back from my walk, a friend informs me via chat that Ben Shapiro has a rap song out. This alone should make anyone who loves music take pause, maybe even have to do that thing where you prevent yourself from puking. There are so many people with a true song in their hearts, and HE has the resources to put together a song that people will actually pay attention to. Money for.
And because it’s Shapiro, it’s an anti-trans song. Of goddamn course it is; the man cannot know peace until everything in this world is as sanded down, dull, white, and stupid as he is. He just doesn’t understand the hatefulness that also comes with it will be coming for him. Someday.
And so we say unto him:
Get fucked, you grifting scumbag.
Speaking of tiny men with hateful agendas, I soon found out from another friend that TFG is having to pay 83.5 million to E. Jean Carroll 83.5 for… well being who he is. I mean, personally I feel like being a traitorous rapist should cost more. Are the penis biting snakes available?
I’m being told they are on hold for now. Modern problems apparently require modern solutions.
And so we say unto him:
Get fucked, you grifting scumbag.
Vice brewing has a Breakfast Club-a breakfast sour ale with cranberries- on offer today and usually this isn’t my jam. Today though, it’s working! The cranberry is softly present in the nose, and the beer itself is pleasantly tart. I’d say this beer is trying to emulate a mimosa, both in tartness and with the effervescent to dry finish.
At 5%, this is also a solid breakfast beverage, not that I would recommend drinking before noon. Nevertheless, this would provide an excellent contrast to any breakfast plate and I recommend it.
