That Was Such A Good Idea

Getting rid of the mean tweets.  And the stuff that came with it.  Like energy independence.   So I could feel privileged to pay $3.45 a gallon. 

As things go down the crapper I'm really torn.  Should I LAUGH in the face of people I know were Biden supporters when they complain?  Or PUNCH them in the face?  I know which one would feel better in the moment.

I Don't Like Baldwin

But I don't think this was deliberate.  I think being anti-gun and living in la-la imagination land led to Something Bad.  You and I would never have done this.  Because we are Evil Gun Owners we know and practice The Rules.

I never knew until this tragedy that they use live ammo on movie sets.  Really?  In this day and age of special effects overwhelming everything, why is that necessary?  Even more, why are people who hate guns and therefore don't train with them being handed guns loaded with live ammo?

Of course, this will be blamed on Evil Guns.  Rather than stupid handling of those guns by inept human beings.

Overheard

While I picked up my SUV after a gazillion dollars worth of repairs and maintenance: 1) orders for parts sent out the first of September still haven't arrived and 2) the cost of parts has literally doubled.

Guess that's how we "Build Back Better."

Unmasked

The masking hysteria is trying to crank up here again.  There are signs plastered all over our church doors saying that our bishop has asked that everyone entering the building for Mass wear a mask.  My reaction was "He can ask that I wear a pink tutu to Mass and 1) it would be equally effective and 2) my reaction would be the same: 'No.'"   At least 75% of the congregation seems to agree with me.

At least one of the chain businesses has also pulled down the "You are good if you are vaccinated" signs and replaced them with "Please wear masks" signs.  Which are largely ignored.

The folks who run the local farmer's market are still requiring masks. It's about done for this year but  I've actually heard people talking about setting up a competing market that doesn't require masks if the foolishness persists into next year.

Neither the city or county police will enforce mask "mandates."

I think people are kinda tired of it and increasingly just not going to play anymore.

As to the vaccine "booster", well, the instant the panel in charge of such things overwhelminly voted against it but were overruled by a political appointee I decided I'm not going to play that game, either.
