MOOD BOARD

 

A glorious weekend weather wise. Sun and some warmth finally. Could spring finally be coming? This weekend found the clan and I in downtown Harrisburg for the Fire and Ice Tour. We started viewing the ice sculptures sponsored by various locations over town, and ice sculptures were craved by ice artist of sorts. Of course, it wasn't long by time we all ended up bar hopping with the better kind of ice in our glasses!!! My friend Mame even had our friend Anthony who came down from New York City. Anthony is a go-go boy and almost finished with his citizenship. He was telling us how everyone on the train down was sort of staring him up and down, he suspects because of his heritage and just assumed he was an illegal. At times he said he felt nervous about his trip down. Sad to think this is how America is getting. With that aside, a good time was had by all, at least I think it was. The Mistress was brought back to the Casa du Borghese, unzipped and put to bed for a nice lie in Sunday.  And no, there was no watching of Oscars. I actually forgot they were on.

STOP THE CAR

 

Yes, another one! We may be here all week! The Dump shared a very odd and weird AI video this week of what his vision of Gaza's future would look like. It includes money raining down on children, like that would ever happen, a golden Dump balloon and statue, sky high skyscrapers, Elonia chowing down on Middle Eastern food and the oddest of all--bearded male belly dancers? Is the Dump dumb? Or very masterful at ruling the 24-hour news cycle? Maybe he wants to take Americans minds off of the DOGE/Elon mess, which is polling very badly for him, not to mention the mess that happened on Friday in the Oval. As nuts as this is, at least the dump admits that he's going to seize the land illegally, because when has he done anything legally? But seize the land he says he is going to do. Biden paved the way for this by supplying Isarel with money and weapons, turning Gaza to rubble for over a year. And now not only is there bullshit with Putin doing this, but now the nutbag Netanyahu has announced that he wants to annex southern Syria. In other words, steal it.

For all those so concerned over Russia attacking sovereign nation Ukraine, why doesn't it bother them when Israel steals land from the West Bank and plans to steal its neighbor Syria's land? Aren't those sovereign nations, too? Why is Israel able to steal Palestinian and Syrian land, but Putin seizing land in Ukraine is just fine with politicians? And why is it the US allies with Israel's mass murderers and land thieves in the first place? Oh, that's right. Because they're paid to be. I hope the three of them cross and anger the wrong country and all three of them are taken out. One way or another.

STOP THE CAR!

 

Another disappointment in recent weeks. Pa Senator John Fetterman was someone I thought would make a difference and bring positive change. He won his seat in 2022, campaigning for Medicare for All and progressive values... and it seemed he sold out almost immediately.  When he got into office, he refused to sponsor a Medicare for All bill--which he had campaigned on and won on. He also became Israel's biggest supporter, even modifying his famous working class drag costume to wear an Israeli flag as a cape to work. Since then, he been supporting Trump nominees, and even claiming that his brain injury had caused him to snap out of his former progressive vision. Now his staff is quitting right and left, disappointed too he wasn't all he claimed, and he spends more time representing Isarel than he does his own state. Looks like he is on his way to becoming the next Joe Manchin, the Democrat/ then Independant, who sided with the GOP more so to derail progress. but it took years for progressive AOC who at times sells out also to line up with centrist Dems. Fetterman's worse-- he now sides with Republicans more than not. And Israel, just as he was paid by pro-Is lobby J Street to do. He is also taking money from GOP donors. Democrats can't just criticize GOP politicians and billionaires and not criticize the corrupting influence of money on their own side. Especially when it's this damn brazen.
