Nacho your President

With the election of Donald Trump aka Cheeto Jesus, this has been a really crappy week in the United States.  Never in my 57 years on this planet, have I seen the fear among our citizens from this monster.  He’s already tapped his children to be on his transition team.  He wants to surround himself with lobbyists, which is a really, really bad thing.  Nothing good will come from this president.

People have been protesting all over the country. I can barely wrap my head around the fact this racist, sexist, infantile pig is now the leader of the free world.  How did we get here?  I know many people felt as though they were being left behind. I believe that many in our country couldn’t stand the fact that a strong, highly capable woman was going to be in charge.

He got elected mainly by uneducated middle aged white men.  He’s promised he will bring jobs back to the United States, yet has no plan.  When our current president wanted to rebuild our crumbling infrastructure, he was shot down by the controlling house and senate.  Never mind that it would have created millions of job, but a black man was asking them to do this for their country, and they declined. President Barack Obama has been the best president we have had in my lifetime.

Now we have a loud, brutish, man child with no experience, and a tendency to get into Twitter wars with people at 3 am. I, like so many of my fellow Americans are truly afraid of what a Trump America will be like.  We are already seeing the hate towards anyone who doesn’t look like him right before our eyes.

When Adolph Hitler gained control of Germany in the 1930’s, propaganda was his best ally.  He was able to keep many of his atrocities hidden from the German people. But we have a 24 hour news cycle now, we all know exactly who and what Donald Trump is.  So how in the hell did he get elected?

Many Americans want to blame Obama for their sad lot in life.  What they fail to realize is that the Republicans consistently  blocked everything our president was trying to do.  It’s amazing he was able to accomplish what he did these past 8 years.

Now we have a nimrod who denies climate change, wants to limit women’s rights, deport all sort of nationalities, get rid of Obama care, build a wall and be king.

This all just makes me want to suck down a can of whipped cream, eat a big plate of nachos, and call it a day.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Good News! I won’t be getting murdered in my sleep! Woo Hoo!

Much to me and my husband’s chagrin, our only child has come out as a Republican.  This has been a recent occurrence, and was quite troubling.  He’s known his whole life that his dad and I are Democrats.  He’s a teenager, (and can’t vote yet) so this could just be a phase he’s going through.

Well today is the presidential election here in the United States, and the campaign has been long and very ugly.  My family in Indiana has appeared to divorce me, well, they are a bunch of racists rednecks anyway. I can talk to my relatives and not talk politics, they can’t seem to separate the fact that a. I’m their sister, b. I’m a proud Democrat.  Quite sad, and their loss anyway.

The good news? I asked my son if Trump didn’t win would he murder me in my sleep?  He said no, and I was very glad. I will sleep better tonight, knowing that my only son isn’t going to kill me, and hopefully Hillary Clinton wins.teen-anger-violence-against-parent

 

Man Bun- please just go away

I met with a young fellow at my gym this weekend.  He was trying to sell me on personal training, but all I could see was his horrible man bun. First off, what’s up with the shaved sides, and bun on top?  What kind of look are you going for anyway. Do you ever wear your hair down?  I’m guessing it’s a stringy mess. I somewhat get the man bun, if your hair is all one length, still looks stupid to me, but I’m old, so what do I know.

On the subject of me being old, I’m definitely not blind.  I have seen this hideous man bun all over the place. But I have as yet to see a good looking man attached to said bun.  Are you hoping to ever get laid?  Cuz, I’ve asked  a lot of women what they think of the man bun.  100% of those polled said it looks stupid. (ok, I asked my co-workers, but I digress).

Are you suppose to grab a hold of the man bun during sex? I can’t even imagine that scenario. “oh babe, stop, the three remaining strands of hair on my head might fall out.”

You know in North Korea, there are sanctioned hair cuts for men. They are all variations of one style.  Their fearless leader has the best cut of all. Long hair is not allowed on men in North Korea. Dang, guess I’ll have to cross that off of my bucket list of places to visit.

There is even a clip on man bun, I’m pretty sure it’s a joke though. Dude, if you have to have a clip on man bun, I would forget about ever having sex.

Let’s hear it for the clean shaven, short haired men I so love to look at. Okay, his hair isn’t that short, but look at the body! Hot damn!

Happy Halloween!

outer-limits

Creepiest show ever!  The Outer Limits was a science fiction show in the United States in the early 1960’s. I don’t know why my parents let me watch this, I was just a little kid, like five years old.

I had this clock and a bedroom with no windows.  After I watched the episode with old egg eyes, I don’t believe I ever really slept until I was a tween.  The creepy face would somehow end up on my tick toc clock and scare the living crap out of me. Thanks mom and dad.
