Not a Bad Idea

This is the year of Linus

Image
 You remember him. No, not THAT Linus. As any child after the first can tell you, being #2 is a tough job. Worse, for Linus, there are major theological arguments as to whether he should be considered the first, second, or third pope. Depends on the historian's bias, I think. But, no, I mean THIS Linus. The kid that illustrated the meaning of the term 'security blanket'. Who carried his blanket everywhere, unashamed and unafraid of ridicule. Well, this is his year. People, particularly of the female type, are keeping wholeheartedly into wearing blankets loosely disguised as clothing. Yes, that first one has a USB controlled heating element. I've been bombarded with ads for these over the last week or so. Yes, the temps have dropped considerably over the last few weeks. At first, it was just refreshing after a rather warm late summer. But for the last week, it's been cold enough to start dragging out the winter clothing and blankets.  In the Northern states, this isn...

Some Random Memes (Attribution if I Can Find it)

Image
From Knuckledragging My Life Away. in Take the time to go to the link - most days, Wirecutter has a lotta memes not found elsewhere. I haven't asked him where he found them. I assume quantum travel is involved. Oooh, this'll burn! Try the site where I found this - he only posts these memes on Mondays, but they are always worth seeing. __________________________________________________________________________________ As for my chaotic life, I've taken direct action to settle it down, including taking at least 1-2 days a week when any non-emergency calls for assistance are met with, "I can't do that today, I'll put you on the schedule for either tomorrow or the next day." That phrase alone kept me from my usual recent nutty running around over the weekend. I'm starting to act on the good advice, "Put the oxygen mask on yourself FIRST." Perhaps not coincidentally, my health issues have calmed down and are more manageable. My hair is comb-able, i...

More Stuff That Gets in the Way of Writing

Currently managing insurance agent recertifications, visiting my hospital confined brother, looking for a skilled nursing home for after his hospital release, keeping my sister calm, and my own health and home intact. So, yeah, kinda busy. Honestly, I'm less engaged with national and world politics. Trump's team seems to have matters well in hand, and I don't feel the urge to obsess over the State of the Union every day. Local politics is a concern. The Left appears to be pivoting to ramrod their agenda at the state levels. Ohio is in play; Vivek Ramiswamy is leading by a significant margin. Be has both name recognition and Trump's endorsement. I fear electing another RINO who will pander to his donors, let the Left have free rein packing the state payroll, and generally doing their best to turn this state into Illinois East. Share

Posts Providing Alternate POVs

Have you ever had a conversation with a friend or family member who, when you challenge the Standard Media Advocate Leftist Line (SMALL), asks,  "Where did you get your 'facts'?" Most of us read voraciously, and can be hard put to remember where we had read the information opposing the SMALL (VERY small) people. Fear Not! I'm going to start a regular feature that aggregates need and analysis on specific topics from an Anti-SMALL perspective. The tag line will be SMALL TOPICS, followed by a dash and the specific topic. It should make searching for them easier.  I will keep a SMALL TOPICS Index page, listing all the topics covered so far, by alpha order. That Index page will redirect to an updated Search Page within the blog. I'm doing this, because I'm having trouble remembering where I'd read authoritative work. By organizing it, I'm also hoping to help myself.  Among those topics will be: - Genocides around the world - both real, and those imagina...

Multiple Examples of Leftist-Run States Prosecuting Selectively

Sadly, these examples were gathered in just a short time browsing the blogs.  " Female" Weinie-Wagger is released, because...why?  Not "HER" first time. Man breaks into house, stabs family, kills 6 year old boy. Found guilty, sentenced, just released after 10 years. Because crazy. No shit. Brazilian professor at Harvard shoots pellet gun near synagogue. I'm assuming Not a Citizen. Deport ASAP. Because nothing says fair and impartial like releasing violent insurrectionists. Yes, I do think the family should also go, and soon. They are not American citizens, and should be deported. I'm tempted to refer to Robert Heinlein's description of "The Crazy Years". That was a time period he imagined in his books, just after the end of the 20th Century, when the commonly accepted social and cultural norms were completely upended. Many people's behavior became more bizarre, strange public behavior became the norm, and crime became a common feature of ur...

SMALL Topics - Media Collusion with Politicians

This is the first post under the SMALL Topics category. American Thinker is a site I had gotten out of the habit of checking out. This post is one that prompts me to reconsider that choice. It addresses the role of the media/social media in influencing elections. It's worth reading it all .  Share

CCP Influence Operations in American Politics

CCP is the abbreviation for China. This link lays out the whole story about China's attempts to BUY American office holders. Trump needs to revoke some peoples' Visas. ASAP. Share

Genocide - Could You Have Named Every Group on This List?

20 of them - and I'm sure you can guess what almost all have in common. In the future, as I find more updates on these, I'll separate them into individual target groups. With pictures and videos, if I can find them. We need to bring these atrocities to light, and, for younger people, if there is not photo/video evidence, it doesn't exist. Call it the Instagram/TikTok Effect. Here is another list. This one focuses on the fact that the majority of the persecuted/killed are Christians.

A Very Long Day

I've been trying to get some things done - housework, business, financial. A family member is being admitted to the hospital tonight. So, I'm going to try to fit things into small pockets of time as I can. In other news, the movie business is about to crash completely. Why ever could that be? Could it be that making Woke films is more important than making a profit? Serves the pseudo swipe roof right. It reinforced the Normals Warning -_"Go Woke and Go Broke". We're just not playing that game any more. 4 days later - brother is back home, stable for now. I had an ortho follow-up for my knee replacement this morning. I was glad to leave just then. The roofing company that botched the job last summer is back, at THEIR expense, to fix the job. Lotsa pounding, banging, and making noise. I'm doing very well. Can raise from a seated position with using my arms, great balance and ability to stand on one leg. Flexibility needs improvement, so I was referred for anothe...
