Silly Socialites and the Contrarians Small Town Tour 2024
I don’t know that I’ve mentioned this, but I grew up in a small town. Small towns are “interesting,” and that would be something good you could say about small town life. There isn’t much to do in a small town because no one can afford to keep an entertainment center open for the dozen or so kids that might live there. Potlucks at the fire hall or the lodge can be the most exciting thing to take place for weeks at a time. Churches become community gathering places for this or that level or pecking order within the town itself. The most overriding aspect of small town life is that everyone knows your business. And there is always a cantankerous person or two who have some cantankerous friends who collectively are known as Contrarians. They perennially oppose The Silly Social Club who are the progressives in town. You know the ones. They’re the ones who want street lights, stop signs, and paved roads.

Trump's First Assassination Attempt. Content Warning.
Before 20-year-old Thomas Crooks attempted to kill former President Trump, there was Michael Steven Sandford, a British man who was the same age as Crooks tried to assassinate Donald Trump before he became the President-Elect in 2016. He didn't shoot Trump or anyone else. This is how it all unfolded.

Starmer Condemns Trump Attack.. Content Warning.
Sir Keir Starmer having come back from the US Himself recently, condemned the failed assassination of Donald Trump. Donald Trump was making a speech when a bullet hit him in the ear. However, the wound was not fatal and appeared to be a flesh wound. Trump dived down and His security team hurried him away. Trump formed a fist of defiance even with blood streaming from his ear. Trump's campaign for now is on hold. The former president was taken to hospital but was released none the worse for the attack. The gunman 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks was instantly killed by security men. The would-be assassin was firing from a roof outside the area that Trump was speaking from. Many have questioned why this roof was not checked for security risks. US authorities are conducting an internal investigation. No one knows right now if the gunman was acting alone. The gunman was using His father's legal weapon. Not wishing to make light of this, however, Thomas Matthew Crooks was thrown out of His school shooting team for being a bad shot! The issue of gun ownership may come up again, however, no American politician will touch it with a barge poll. Although many Americans realize gun ownership is a controversial issue, many Americans, believe in the right to bear arms enshrined in the constitution. They will say there are responsible gun owners and non-responsible gun owners. The pro-gun lobby and the anti-pro-gun lobby will debate this for years to come.

The Orange Bullyboy Plays President for Ratings
There are several items in the news which just will not move along through my brain. Every time I send them on their way, they come back around. I’m beginning to suspect that they’re all related but it is puzzling to me how that could possibly be. If it weren’t for these stories echoing in my “Take a Look at This - NOW” news feed, I’d have sworn that coincidences sent from somewhere in the Matrix is as good a theory for strange happenings as butterfly wings flapping in the Yellow River basin. But there it was, a couple of back-to-back strange happenings and I, obviously, just had to add up the column of unrelated crazy sounding shit to come up with a question. One, I’m either afraid to answer or I’m afraid I know, and just don’t want to look at something that dreary.

The Elephant in the Room: Kamala Brings Hope and Experience to the Democratic Party
Yippee! They had the debate. Yippee, Yippee!! There are panty malfunctions as far as the eye can see. The views are more stimulating than a summer day on any crowded Rio beach. If Joe only knew what kind of carnal stimulation an 80-year-old man can generate by simply telling the truth, even in a stuttering tired 80-year-old voice. The moment he struggled to remember, then say something that was right there on the tip of his tongue, but Jill could not be there to read it for him due to the CNN “rules,” panties could be heard malfunctioning all over Washington. Hell Joy, over at MSNBC, gave up the ghost and her belief in real in one defeated gush. There were lots of Liberal hosts all across whatever platform you’d like to reference whose future children all turned white as a sheet due to near suffocation.

Pigeon on a Mission
Hungarian Prime-minister Viktor Orbán has done a lot of travel in a short period of time since Hungary became the EU Council rotating chair for six months on July 1, 2024. He calls it a “peace mission.” His X (Twitter) timeline has it all documented in glossy propaganda terms using a lot of euphemisms and strong imagery.

Is the Poorelone Image Worshiping Virus an Aerosol Threat?
There’s something that’s been bothering me lately about what some of our leadership luminaries use to think with. I know they think with their brains, but what are the programs they use in those flesh and blood computers? For example, one might wonder about the professionalism of an architect who uses the horribly simple design app called Home Design 3D as opposed to an architect who uses AutoCad to design your home or a bridge or a stadium. There’s nothing at all wrong with Home Design 3D. It does a fine job for someone who just wants to kind of visualize what he wants to see on an ipad. But an architect has to think about a lot more than what something is sort of going to look like. Only an advanced program like AutoCad mounted on a massive computer can accomplish the level of detail an architect requires. Of course AutoCad has years in its continuing development whereas Home Design 3D may have two or three years of constant improvement.

Joe Biden Calls Zelenskyy Putin.. Content Warning.
Joe Biden since 2010 has had a series of mishaps. Falling up or down stairs, falling off stages, getting people's names mixed up, etc. Enemies of Biden and even some supporters, find this a hoot. However, whatever you think of Biden, laughing at an old man because of his age gaffes or signs of dementia is not funny. If we live long enough and reach old age, none of us know how we will be. So, when people laugh at Biden, they shouldn't, because Karma has a way of paying back what you said or did. So, all I am saying is just be careful what you say or do when mocking.

Puppet Masters
Introduction In this complex web of global politics, this idea that the world leaders are actually puppets moving to unseen forces is not some sort of conspiracy theory but fact. The story details real examples of leaders whose agendas are really controlled by party apparatchiks, corporate interests, and special lobby groups, explaining how endemic the corruption is and just how hard making independent decisions really is.
