NOT THE MET GALA

While I was away last week and saw next to no coverage of the Met Gala, I did see a few snippets of what some wore, and what a disappointment. I did see a few who made a statement, but very few. This is the one venue to really go all out, balls to the wall, over the top, avant garde...and some looked downright plain. But what put bees in my bonnet was what the one man, who I can't stand more any other, Jeff Bezos, basically bought the gala. I'm very disappointed by that. But let's face it, this event is getting too full of itself for a bunch of entitled people. What I did like was the message labor organizer Chris Smalls did, and who was also apprehended trying to get into the Met Ball that night. Not to be out done, Mr. Smalls featured himself in a video which he had screened on the side of Jeff Bezo's residence that night. Smalls makes the connection between Bezos and Isreal and ICE. How many attendees of the ball do you think made that connection? Sadly, this stunt was heard very little about... which I thought was brilliant. And Six did a whole post on the rotten rat bastard.

He , I'm sure will now ruin the Met Gala for good as well as Vogue. I wish Anna Wintour would just make him disappear for good. She will be so sorry to see her legacy in shambles after she is gone. The man paid 10 million for the gala, got 62 billion richer since the Dump was elected, spent 500 million on a yacht to sail to his 55 million wedding in Venice to give his plastic side piece a 5 million ring, because his tax rate is less than 1%. Yet, people still give in to him and inflate his wallet by using Amazon and all it services.

And do these celebrities there make a statement by being there? Yes. It spoke volumes to me. They know who he is and what he stands for. A bigger statement would have been having the balls to declining the invitation. Sarah Paulson went to the ball in a costume designed to critique "the one precent", with a dollar bill over her eyes. Cute, but why not skip the event put on by Bezos??? She is typical "resistance liberal" making a bold statement, but they're all talk and virtue-signaling. Was this opposing glutinous billionaires or joining them? I think an equally pertinent question is how many of them care? People need to stop revering celebrities. What do they offer anymore? Half of them are more famous for being influencers, and many not even for talent or making good movies or clothes or writing good books. A huge percent of Hollywood these days doesn't even have half the talent of old Hollywood. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against how much money one has, some billionaires very few, truly get it... and do wonderful things with their money. But when you reach these heights, there is so much good one can do with the coins. And they are just so greedy and gluttonous.

MOOD BOARD

Here we are on Monday again, and it's back to the grind for a full week... at least till the end of May. While away, I thought the team at Blogger had fixed things. Mr DeVice even commented how they must have felt my return and fixed things, before I started shouting off with their heads...but alas, it appeared fixed for two days but now several blogs did not update again on the reader since Saturday, and several blogs like Bob's and Dave's brought back post from April!! At the top of the blog reader! When I saw Bob's Meme Drop feature, I thought to myself that is usually Bob's Tuesday fare and then thought to myself the bastards are at it again! And I slew of others have not updated, but suspect, that out friends have indeed posted. They just can't get their act together. Well, I will make my rounds by way of blogroll, but in the meantime, let's enjoy some pretty moments I enjoy.

I adore Poison Ivy, and see much of myself in that character. I do believe that room above would be my lair!

Happy Monday dears!

MOTHERING DAY

 
Doesn't matter much what species, a mother's and child's love is a special thing. I may be older, but I know my mother still thinks of me as her baby. Every day is Mother's Day for me and today is a day to shower just a bit more extra dose of love and attention on mine. We are close and have a good friendship too. But I know because of her, my late grandmother and aunt, I am who I am because of them and why I have gotten this far with the tools and morals and sense to make it this far. I hope as children we know all our mothers have done for us and always there in one form or another. I thank mine and all the mothers out there today and thank you. 

Happy Mother's Day to all you Mother's
