Dulcinea
Dulcinea's JournalI wish him a happy unbirthday.
No one knows the exact date of Jesus's birth. An ancient Pope decided to celebrate Christmas on December 25 to coincide with the pagan Saturnalia festivals, figuring that would be an easy way to get the pagans to convert to Christianity.
This.
Hillbilly Vanilli doesn't have the McFelon's salesmanship or ability to sway a crowd. If Trump kicks off, Vance won't be able to keep the scam going.
My list:
I go for long runs to burn off stress.
I write in my journal.
I read. I'm currently reading about the Athens music scene. I'm a longtime fan of the B-52s & REM.
I listen to a lot of blues music. The blues speaks to me these days.
I watch football & hockey.
I go about my life: work, family, & friends.
And I drink beer. We all do what we have to, I guess.
A quote for dark times:
We used to say that ours is not the struggle of one day, one week, or one year. Ours is not the struggle of one judicial appointment or presidential term. Ours is the struggle of a lifetime, or maybe even many lifetimes, and each one of us in every generation must do our part. And if we believe in the change we seek, then it is easy to commit to doing all we can, because the responsibility is ours alone to build a better society and a more peaceful world. --Congressman John Lewis, 1940-2020
I, for one, won't give up. It angers me to no end that my daughters have fewer rights today than I did when I was their age.
My older daughter is 23 today. My younger one will be 21 on the 19th. They're worth fighting for.
I'm postmenopausal & have no grandchildren.
My daughters are in college, so grandkids are on a distant horizon, if ever. One daughter wants kids "one day" & the other is ambivalent at best.
Like a lot of sad, insecure men with mommy & daddy issues, JV Dance cannot bear that women have choices, and that they make choices he doesn't approve of. No one died & left you king, Vladimir Futon. Get over yourself. And fuck off. Mind your own damn business, to quote future Vice President Walz.
Sad, pathetic losers, just like him.
He's telling angry, desperate people exactly what they want to hear. The people who go to see him are people left behind by societal change, & they think if they vote for him, change will be stopped.
How well I remember!
In 2008, when she was in elementary school, my older daughter asked me, "Mommy, have we ever had a girl president?" I replied no. She was crushed when Hillary lost. She's now 22, proudly voted for the first time in 2020, & will vote for VP Harris in the fall. The same goes for my younger daughter, who voted for the first time in 2022. Their generation has seen firsthand what happens when bad candidates get elected. It's likely that we'll see a lot of young people voting this time around.
I'll believe President Biden is staying in the race until I hear *him* say otherwise.
Everything else is just speculation, hearsay, and/or agitprop.
They love to play the victim.
Whiny ass losers. Being a victim absolves them of any responsibility for anything.
Stupid skank performing for the cameras again.
The bumpkins eat this performance art up & promptly open their wallets. Margie Traitor Queen isn't there to legislate. She's there to fleece the rubes.
