Well…now that the lower class morons voted for project 2025 in the election, one of the things that is going to smack them in the face is the goal of getting rid of the “common good” that government is supposed to protect…it you’ve ever needed food stamps…gone…if you’ve ever needed unemployment insurance…gone…roads, schools, libraries…all gone…how would you like to have every road be a toll road? That’s the plan…and every part of the social safety net is on the chopping block…Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security have been targeted since their inception and again, these morons who depend on those programs just voted to have them destroyed…along with any regulation of business…you like clean air and water? The plan is to have business self regulate and eliminate the EPA…like food that doesn’t kill you? No more with the FDA on the chopping block, too…I know I’ve been harping on this for quite a while and showing my disdain for the people who inflicted this nightmare on this country…and they deserve it…some who voted for these assholes are going to die from that vote…and I have no sympathy for them at all…let them eat their hate…geez…
January 5th
Well…damn, I knew this was going to happen with not eating enough…feel like crap today with no energy at all and it is going to be a struggle to get on the bike today…but when I do, I’ll go over 100 miles and that is only in 5 days so if I keep it up that should mean 600 miles for the month but that is not a record…I don’t think I need to think about that right now…I did get a little bit of work done yesterday and I should do more today but it is going to be hard until the coffee starts to work…haven’t made good coffee in a few days and I really should today but I need time to savor it and I don’t see that happening…it only got up to 18 degrees here yesterday and that looks like the high for today, too…it’s not going to get out of the 20′s until mid month but that is Michigan in January…I’ll be happy if it just stops snowing for a couple of days so I can get out of the alley for the grocery run this week…need to start planning meals and I know I’ll be making another pizza to use up the ingredients I have left over from the last one…and I need to make ham soup to get the damn ham bones out of the freezer and free up some space…not much to do today…it’s almost 7:15 and I need to get moving or I’ll turn into a slug…but I really don’t want to…I’m just wearing out…more later…
Finally got some work done…
Well…I’ve been saying for almost a week that I was going to get some work done around here and I finally did today…after the three rides, I went out and shoveled the snow…we got a little over 4 inches year overnight and probably another couple today…after that I cleaned the living room including tearing the couch apart, cleaning it, and then rotating the cushions…I did have to take some laundry soap and water to a part of the rug that was a little dirty and that came out pretty good after I vacuumed it…then I got the weight work in and had a piece of pizza for dinner…did get some time to read this afternoon, too…and I’m going back to that in a minute…I did have some sparrows on the feeder today and that was cool to see that they found it along with some nuthatches that I barely even see anymore…I think the damn big doves are scaring them off…filled the feeder at noon and now at a little after 5pm, it is almost empty again…oh, well…back to reading…
Pro trump terrorism…
Well…gee, isn’t it funny how the media goes on and on about terrorism unless it’s done by a pro-trump supporter? The latest is the idiot that blew up his cybertruck in front of a trump building in Vegas this week and then shot himself…and the manifesto he left behind that clearly states that he is doing this for trump but that was downplayed by both law enforcement and the media and we know why since most law enforcement are maga assholes who support everything this terrorist spewed…the media never reports on the scale and scope of right wing terrorism here in the US choosing to dig deep instead to always both sides whenever the right wingers attack…I mean 16 people killed by maga assholes in one week? so we have this to look forward to for the next few years…crap…
January 4th
Well…damn, how the heck can I be running late and it’s only 6:45am? Need to get on the bike soon to be done before noon and it will be a 3 ride day…I hope…and today will be the third day of only one meal and that means tomorrow I’ll feel like crap with no energy if I keep that up…don’t have to cook today with making the pizza yesterday and having the leftover Masala if I decide to have two meals today…feel like crap already this morning even with going to bed early and not getting up til 6:23 and I can barely breathe with my allergies really flaring but I’ll take something for them here in a minute…it snowed quite a bit overnight so I’ll be out shoveling after the third ride…it’s only 18 degrees here right now and it will be another day of 20′s for highs and that will continue until the 11th but the huge snowstorm that is coming is going to the south of Michigan and will dump ice and snow across the country…it’s even a named storm and I think that’s a bit silly…didn’t get a damn thing done yesterday other than cooking but I do need to clean some today…crap, need to get on the bike here in 25 minutes and I’m not feeling it….oh, well…more later…
Still can’t remember what day of the week it is…
Well…I think I have “retiree’s disease” since I have a real problem with knowing what day of the week it is…I know I don’t have to know since I don’t have anywhere to be but still…I’ve lived my life with the weekly passage of time being important but I guess I’ll have to get used to it…it’s a little after 2pm and I finally have everything done that I planned..got three rides in and then built a homemade pizza and put that on the grill…then shoveled the snow while it was baking, cleaned everything up, oh, and ate two pieces of pizza so it will be another one meal day today… and put a load of laundry in…the Robert Ludlum book I’m reading is pretty good so I’ll need to go to the library and get more of after I get through the used ones I bought…just had some sparrows find the feeder for the first time this year but the pig doves just pushed them off…oh, well…okay, time to read a bit…
These people are just stupid…
Well…I’ve touched on this one a bit before but it really does eed saying again…the people who were pissed off about inflation and voted the idiot trump in for that reason alone are in for a pretty big surprise once the idiot imposes his 25% across the board tariffs on all imports…I’m sure they believed the idiot when he said that tariffs wouldn’t have any effect on their lives…hey, I got news for you if you raise the prices of cars, washing machines and everything else by 25%, and these morons have to pay it, it will make the 1.8% inflation that we have right now look like nothing…one thing that will happen is that price increase (a trump tax if you will) will crash demand and the rest of the economy…just the other day the delusional, ignorant trump pointed to the early 1900′s and tariffs imposed that helped crash the economy and said the economy was never better than then…and what do these morons think that the rest of the world is going to do in response to these tariffs…not respond at all? Say goodbye to any exports and millions of jobs…mostly jobs held by the stupid cretins who voted for idiot boy and again, they frickin deserve it…geez…
January 3rd
Well…man, I’m worn out today and it’s probably from only having a bowl of soup and one of Masala to eat for the whole day…that will change today with making a pizza for lunch after I get three rides in first…and that means I’ll have to get going in 45 minutes or so and that is the last thing I want to do right now….one good thing is my BP is down to 123/70 this morning but I really do need to stop checking it since checking it stresses me out…I did go out and work on the walks yesterday…there wasn’t enough snow to shovel it so I just salted them and that cleared them up completely…but I’ll need to get more salt this week when I do the grocery run since I’m running out…it’s snowing now and we have a winter storm watch on for the day and might get 4 inches before it’s over…I know I’m weird but I’m looking forward to getting outdoors to shovel today…will probably do that while the pizza is on the grill…the lake effect snow is setting up and we could get heavy stuff and that is Muskegon in winter…it’s going to be cold through January and not over the mid 20′s and I can take that…over 70 winters here in Michigan and I’m used to it….I do have to clean the bathroom today and should vacuum the rug in the living room along with couch…but I guess we’ll see…more later…
Have to stop maximizing my time…
Well…for my entire life, I’ve always multi tasked and done more than on thing at once…and I was doing pretty good until today when I fell back into the old habits and did something internally to riding the bike rides…while I was on the first ride, having some fresh baked bread sounded really good so I mixed up some bread dough in the 15 minutes between rides, and put it in the toaster over to proof for the next two rides and then it was ready to bake when I finished the third ride…I could have waited and done the loaf after I was done but thought never even occurred to me and I wanted to have the bread with the last of the turkey soup…still planning way too much but that’s just me…oh, well…I did get three rides in for 24 miles and did the weight work right after lunch to get it out of the way…after that I haven’t really done much else other than clean the shower floor with some new cleaner I bought…will do the rest of the bathroom tomorrow…but right now I’m going to watch ND play Georgia at 4…
Gulag South Carolina…
Well…I hope women in South Carolina just love that the assholes they voted into office are going to legalize executing women who get an abortion…I can hear these stupid people right now..”oh, they’ll never do that..” just like the low income repubs in Pennsylvania that were interviewed after the election said “they won’t cut my food stamps or Medicaid”…and yet that is exactly what is in the repubs plans and these people are still whining that they voted to the idiot since he promised to bring down inflation that was already down but they were too stupid to know it…so now women in SC are going to die in another red state either by getting or not getting an abortion if they need it…to quote Yossarian…”that’s some catch that catch 22″…so now we are in the find out stage of FAFO that these morons have saddled us with and some of them are actually going to die from voting these assholes into office…serves them right and I do hope it happens…geez…
