By popular demand. ( popular means one person )
I've neglected this blog and spent lots of time getting angry at the TV and being stunned at how stupid some of the people who are my "Facebook friends" are.
Since when did everyone I went to high school with turn into a devout Christian? I know it was almost twenty years ago but am I supposed to believe that they've really changed THAT much and that they've all somehow embraced this dogma? Seriously?
When I was 15 and my mom made me go to church, I always wondered how the assholes that were there got to be such assholes.
Now I know.
What a futile exercise in dishonesty.
aaaaaaaaaaand:
Bath time!

An exercise in futility.
I want to write a long well-thought out post on all this healthcare hulabaloo but what's the point. The people who read this probably already agree with me and the complete lack of reason and intelligence on the other side of the coin is just..........it's fucking ridiculous. How the debate has even gotten this far, with people defending the "I'll just go into a meeting and shout some nonsense" as being an act of patriotism is just.......again, it's fucking ridiculous.
I tried to talk to my Mom about it when she was here visiting and I got a glimpse into what the "other side" is like. My mom isn't stupid but when I was talking to her about this, she was so woefully misinformed that we couldn't even discuss it. We had no point of reference to start from. She was also; 1) more upset than I've ever seen her about any current event and 2) she was fucking SCARED. I think that her fear is what the insurance companies are counting on.
It's exhausting. I feel like being rational and reasonable should be the de facto response during these kind of discussions, not shouting someone down and spreading complete lies and...shit.....it's fucking ridiculous.

poker
I'm playing fairly regularly again. Just online but it's calming to me. It's one of the few things that is really familiar and still interesting to me.
The idea of "the long run" is really appealing to me.
That's it.
