The ghosts of all the LOL I expelled from my person that night as I counted the electoral college numbers Election Day November 2016, surround me still. For don't you know, dear worst-reader, my giggles are not out of spite but instead out of tear-jerk-laughter. Oh yes my fellow and bereaved #Americant brethren. You are … Continue reading The Many More Layers Of Bad That Can Still Be Peeled Away
In Search Of The Origin Of Privilege
Update 2: I've complained about this guy before. But it's hard, don't you know, dear worst-reader. It's hard complaining too much--or even too little. Of course, this guy takes the cake when it comes to complaining. I think. O maybe not. Nomatter. In the confusion of trying to understand what makes this $hit world go'round, it's … Continue reading In Search Of The Origin Of Privilege
Feeling The Tech Burn This Morning Or What Goes Around Comes Around
Right before Xmas, a few weeks ago, an executive decision was made that included two things. The first? It was time to renew some computer hardware. The second? I turned off all my Plex devices. In order to renew my hardware, though, I had to get some cash. For you see, dear worst-reader, cash is … Continue reading Feeling The Tech Burn This Morning Or What Goes Around Comes Around
Government Agency v Corporate Control?
Great example of how government doesn't have to be so horrible. Way to go Vermont! I mean, of course, it doesn't have to be this way. Then again, what can one do with so many #Americants onboard, drinking the Kool-aid, sucking it up because, well, no one wants to rock-the-boat. Indeed. If only constituents could … Continue reading Government Agency v Corporate Control?
No. Seriously. How Many Of Them Vote For You-Know-Who?
The question worst-writer is asking as the debacle government shutdown that is my beloved & missed #Americant, Land of Free to be Stupid, deals and squeals--deservedly--at the behest of its own dysfunction, is this: of those furloughed--800k "non-essential" government employees + (insert your number here) contractors--how many have been supporting this political madness from the … Continue reading No. Seriously. How Many Of Them Vote For You-Know-Who?
How Compulsives Run The Show
We live in a world of Trump-Uglies and the disgust his ilk pro-creates. We live in a world of teeth-less, comb-over dog-fights that are clawless due to cosmetics and ill-fitted matrimony. And even better... We live in a world that is not lead by the merit of one's or the collective's actions. No. Indeed. We … Continue reading How Compulsives Run The Show
Let’s Call It Red-Brass, Shall We?
Dabbling away, dear worst-reader. Dabbling away with the fancy of my new MacBook aka exuberant über glorified typewriter. Not quite two weeks in my consume-to-survive possession, the only issue I'm having with it so-far is the colour. Seriously. I love the keyboard. Don't mind the single USB-C port (as I've got plenty of dongles already … Continue reading Let’s Call It Red-Brass, Shall We?
How Bout A Bit Of Cockup In Your Brexit
Disclaimer: This post contains purposefully mispelt adult language. What is Brexit really about (according to worst-writer)? Well, get this, dear worst-reader. Like everything else going on in this day & age of all-things-worst, the thing Brexit is really about is simple--even though the whole debate going on for the last few years has been more … Continue reading How Bout A Bit Of Cockup In Your Brexit
Pseudo Unboxing & Review Of 2017 12″ MacBook
Title 2: Or How I Got My (Almost) Pink On What is it you do, dear worst-reader? In other worst-words, what do you do between the hell-day that is modern western consumerism run-amok aka Xmas combined with the ending of yet another krappy (worst) year in a universe lead by the greatest land of free … Continue reading Pseudo Unboxing & Review Of 2017 12″ MacBook
Egypt Of The…
"This was indeed the Egypt of the Confederacy,--the rich granary whence potatoes and corn and cotton poured out of the famished and ragged Confederate troops as they battled for a cause lost long before 1861. Sheltered and secure, it became the place of refuge for the families, wealth, and slaves. Yet even then the hard … Continue reading Egypt Of The…
Prepping For In-between Years And New Remotes That Leave Us On Couch
Tonights playlist with first glass of wine after day full of basement cleaning... Hold a sec. That's right. That's how I roll between Xhrist's birth-death-day and the beginning of yet another worst-year: I clean, at the behest of my better-half, HER friggin' basement. And not just clean, don't you know. Indeed. Two car loads of … Continue reading Prepping For In-between Years And New Remotes That Leave Us On Couch
Birthday In Pics
An almost moonlight river cruise... cruising by as I walk Beckett the killer pug. A few hours earlier, walking the same damn useless mut, I was wondering if a river port/harbour lost a buoy. Losing a buoy might not be such an oddity as the river's been rising like a monster in the last few … Continue reading Birthday In Pics
Ah, The Days Of Padding…
Yeah, I padded a resume once (or thrice). Who didn't back in the day when the West was still ramping up its globalisation guns and aiming them at the working-stiffs still sucker enough to think the 1990s DotCom boom was gonna bring anything more than a cocktail as departure from (life and) work(force). Hence I've … Continue reading Ah, The Days Of Padding…
Getting Rid Of The Stupid, The (Internal) Ugly, The Disgusting…
Maybe I'm a little confused with all the left-wing information I consume-to-survive. I mean, seriously. It's so hard for even a rational worst-mind to follow minuscule amounts of right-wing stuff. Especially when that stuff is supposed to be left but in fact is just part of the/a right-wing bubble. So why bother? On the other … Continue reading Getting Rid Of The Stupid, The (Internal) Ugly, The Disgusting…
When Worst Comes To Shove, Worst Always Wins?
Can't remember exactly when it was. Definitely a few years back. I was shopping around, you know, consuming-to-survive, and there was this DVD set priced real cheap of House of Cards. The original, btw, not the #Americant rip-off. I bought it and ripped it to my home server and never watched one show. A few … Continue reading When Worst Comes To Shove, Worst Always Wins?
There Is Nothing Above Or Below, There Is Only Left Or Right
Don't you love it, dear worst-reader? Don't you love it when those who think they know try to convince you of their all-knowing with fancy charts and other thingies? Good thing worst-writer is here, eh? I mean, when I try to counter the all-knowing of know-it-alls the only thing you can expect is all-things-worst. But … Continue reading There Is Nothing Above Or Below, There Is Only Left Or Right
That Last Bottle Of Wine Full Of Memories
Xmas Eve dinners are a big deal in worst-writer's house. A few people are invited and some of them actually come. Since the kids are all growed-up this is mostly an adult evening. Either that or the kids are with divorcee parents. Nomatter. To begin the occasion, a bottle of champagne is opened and most drink … Continue reading That Last Bottle Of Wine Full Of Memories
Cruelty To The Awful More More
One of the best opinion pieces I've read in a while (see link below). Its only problem? It's still too nice. The Awful that makes up my beloved & missed #Americant, that has given rise to not just $hitbag #Trump but the rise goes back to the election of a friggin two-bit actor who was … Continue reading Cruelty To The Awful More More
How Much You Don’t Know Can Hurt You (Deep Inside) Forever
Disclaimer: This is not a pseudo-review of the movie The Butler and there is only one slight spoiler. My son asked me the other week if I had seen the movie The Butler. I told him I had not. When I asked if he'd seen it, to my surprise he said he had and then … Continue reading How Much You Don’t Know Can Hurt You (Deep Inside) Forever
Inverted Wag The Dog Vs. Inverted-Inverted Illiberalism
One of the worst things about trying to follow politics, especially follow the joke that is politics in my beloved & missed #Americant, is how so many otherwise rational thinking people lose their $hit when they think there is a light at the end of a tunnel (for their politics) but instead what they are … Continue reading Inverted Wag The Dog Vs. Inverted-Inverted Illiberalism
Learning How Good The Crunge Really Is And Other Songs
Potential sub- or alternative title: Oh how pleased I am with current status of (my) audio consumption and still being able to get it on at my age. Yesterday's evening conduit? It began with a glass of Weißburgunder and a few tunes from greatest-band-ever randomly discharged from my home network wifi to my 2015 MacBook … Continue reading Learning How Good The Crunge Really Is And Other Songs
The Great Scam In Full Bloom. Thanks #Americant.
Does it matter that in all my travels, in all my years working for the man, in all those board rooms, sales pitches, project discussions, ex-wives, etc., I've never met a person that I look up to, admire or consider to be someone of talent or expertise. This, dear worst-reader, is the hell so many … Continue reading The Great Scam In Full Bloom. Thanks #Americant.
Something Else About Yellow Vests
Robespierre before getting his jaw blown off along with his head. Here's a somewhat limited and underachieving-redneck understanding of the French Revolution1. First. While attempting over the years to read this or that about the Revolution, I learned a while back, to my great disappointment, that Marie Antoinette probably never uttered let them eat cake. … Continue reading Something Else About Yellow Vests
Story Of Blue M&Ms, Dinner Perfect And Gin
Preparing dinner the other night I got into a worst-photo mode. Lord knows I'll never quite figure out how these camera-phone-computer-thingies work. But then again, with fresh blue M&Ms direct from NYC... I'm good. Nomatter. Rant on. -T PS The story of blue M&Ms is to come. Maybe.
May Yellow Vests Save Us All And How I Knew Q&A Website Would Suck It
(Deep breath:) What's wrong with journalism is not the fakeness or the fake-newz but how it simply gets things wrong on account those practicing it (journalism) aren't really journalist but if they are they are journalists of a new era where journalism isn't the same as it used to be because now those who pay "journalists" … Continue reading May Yellow Vests Save Us All And How I Knew Q&A Website Would Suck It
