GANGSTAGRASS

 


Mixing black ghetto Gangsta Rap with white fundamentalist Christian Kentucky Bluegrass is as likely as pairing off Trump’s ultra conservative, and racist Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller, with mega liberal, far left, Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez.


But a young man named Rench has done just that. 




I posted about them a couple of years ago, and Yellowdog granny commented she just as soon shove pencils in her ears (she put fuck in there somewhere.)  

 

They also did the theme song for the FX TV series Justified.

ELON MUSK IS THE WORLD’S FIRST TRILLIONAIRE

 





 

Let's get a perspective of what the number one trillion looks like.






Let's say you have a machine that could spit out a one-dollar bill every second; it would take you 17 minutes to acquire 1 thousand dollars:


It would take 12 days to acquire 1 million dollars.

32 years to reach 1 billion dollars;

And 32,000 years before you received one trillion dollars.


And the weight of one trillion dollar bills would be one million metric tons.

 

From Earth to Mars is 34 million miles

The population of the US is 350 million

The age of the Earth is 4.5 billion years old

The population of the Earth is 8.3 billion

 

The 2026 military defense funding is approximately 1 trillion.


And Elon Musk's wealth surpasses $ 1 trillion.





The richest 1% of the US population holds over 30% of the total wealth. The financially lower 50% of the population hold less then 4%. 


from the bottom 4%

HEADLIGHT LENSE RESTORATION

 

My RAV-4 is thirteen years old.  Three years ago, my headlight lenses were so yellowed that I could barely see my way home through a snowstorm.  That following summer, I accessed YouTube and searched for headlight restoration kits.   I settled on Griot’s Ceramic Headlight Restoration kit, because it did not require a power drill to buff out the lens – the sanding was done by hand. 






  

I took out my lawn chair, spent about ten minutes on each lens, and the results were remarkable.

 

Two winters later, my headlights have some cloudiness, but are still drastically better than the yellow, opaque lenses of earlier.

 

 I have no connection with Griot’s – just passing on my experience. 




You’re welcome

DEMOCRATS HAVE TO DECIDE: DO THEY WANT TO TAKE BACK THE SENATE OR REQUIRE A PURITY TEST FOR THEIR POLITICIANS?

 







Grahm Platner is a flawed candidate for the Maine Senate, running against Republican Susan Collins who voted 98% in favor of Trump's agenda. 





 

Platner has been accused by three women he dated of being demeaning, one claiming physical intimidation. Platner did four tours in Iraq.  He admits he was reacting from PTSD when he returned from war.  

 

Platner has some baggage, but he is popular with working people of Maine and is probably the only candidate who can take down Collins.   

 

Republicans would circle the wagons and have no problem with him as a candidate.

 

Democrats do this every time; they require a purity test, often tearing down their own candidates, while republicans, who elected Donald Trump, take over the Senate and Congress.




PTSD is real, affecting people who return from combat in different ways.


There is a feeding frenzy that may cost the Democrats the Senate.

WHY BLUE COLLAR WORKERS DON’T VOTE DEMOCRAT

 







QUIT CALLING THEM STUPID!

 

This morning on a news program, there was a discussion about the Democratic Autopsy of the 2024 election.  Someone made the distinction between “educated voters” and “voters without a college education.”   The connotation comes off as ‘smart people vs stupid people.’ 

 

I cringe every time I hear this comparison made by a democratic proponent.

 

I didn’t go to college until I was forty-two years old.   Had I heard a comment like that during my twenty-two years as an enlisted man in the military, I would have said; Fuck those conceited bastards – and on that basis alone would have voted Republican. 

 

Why would a blue-collar voter vote for a party that considers them as the dumber portion of the electorate?

EMOTIONAL SUPPORT ANIMALS: BULLSHIT

 


As you enter old age, you get grumpier.  It is because you have seen it all before, and you know when to call bullshit.

 

I hate it when I’m in a restaurant and some woman – it’s always some older woman and her husband – comes in and sits near me with a small dog wearing an ‘emotional support’ vest.

 

The dog is not for emotional support - it’s for attention.

 

If it is a disabled person with a lab or German Shepherd that is actually needed for assistance, that’s fine; I’ll give up my seat for them.  But emotional support – that’s bullshit. 

 



Jim Jefferies is a shock jock.  If you feel his humor is in poor taste – which it is - fine, don’t watch him.   However, people who are disgusted by Jefferies'  humor will watch and defend Ricky Gervais, though he is just as crass.   Gervais just comes off as more likable.
