Accidental Admission

I’ve written before (and carefully documented that writing) that the white, extremely conservative, religious fundamentalist movement in the United States has its roots deeply planted in racism. They now prefer to be called “evangelicals” because the term religious fundamentalist has powerful connotations of terrorism. (Hmm. January 6th, indeed, proved them to be domestic terrorists.) Well, a few days ago homophobe… Continue reading

A Republican Speaks

Steve Schmidt Republican Steve Schmidt, who ran John McCain’s 2008 campaign for president, was interviewed recently on MSNBC. In response to a very general question regarding the Trump Presidency, Mr. Schmidt succinctly summed up his assessment of Donald Trump’s presidency.

Pat Robertson: Now Brain Dead

Apparently yesterday televangelist (tele-terrorist, if you ask me) had yet another full on mental meltdown. Isn’t this filthy rich, 89 year old, religious bigot dead yet? He’s certainly brain dead! Referring to the Equality Act, he said: This is a devastating blow to religious freedom and to the sanctity of America. If you want to bring the judgment of God… Continue reading

Women’s March

How did we miss it? How did we not know it was going on?

But, I reached a boiling point yesterday for several reasons. So, I’m about to boil over with another… Continue reading

However, their overall playlist offered in… Continue reading

Yay! Burger King Commercial Explains Net Neutrality

People are busy. Many haven’t even realized Trump’s FCC has already repealed net neutrality. And most people don’t even know what that means—YET! But guess, what? You soon will notice. You soon will care. You’re about to get ripped off even more by your big friends like Comcast. So Burger King created this really awesome commercial for the Whopper that… Continue reading

Bathrooms & Sundry Other Tidbits: Delta Airlines vs. Air New Zealand

I have flown a lot, too much, waaaaay too much actually. The vast majority of my flights (at least 96%) have been on Delta or one of its sky team partners. Sadly, I have always found the bathrooms on Delta’s domestic and international flights to be filthy. The toilet floors are almost always sticky, and I can’t recall a flight… Continue reading
