Honestly Now

I understand there was a big, BIG concert last night that was briefly interrupted by a football game. Green Day opened for Bad Bunny and I saw that Lady Gaga made an appearance too. Cool. 

Jen and Oni watched the show and said it was malvada fabulosa. They slept through the game, of course. I don’t really understand why the musicians felt they needed to stick a football game in the middle of their show but, whatever. Maybe it was some kind of marketing gimmick. A bid to widen the artists’ audiences?

In other wonderful world of sports news, I understand that VP Many Names has won the gold, as expected, in the Downhill Douche competition. He also was the recipient of a giant wall of boos, not that anyone watching the broadcast here in the U.S. would have heard it. Reports are that, unlike viewers in Canada, the UK and, presumably, the rest of the world, NBC muted the crowd’s thumbs-down to the world’s most socially inept, offensive politician (apart from Prez Pedo and his cabinet of meth addled sewer clowns). Yep, NBC is covering for asshole JD. It’s not just American citizens who despise this lying-ass, money-grubbing, soulless, suck-up to pedos. The whole world sees who he is and wants to wipe him off the bottom of their shoes – stat!

We know that they are lying, they know that they are lying, they even know that we know they are lying, we also know that they know we know they are lying too, they of course know that we certainly know they know we know they are lying too as well, but they are still lying. In our country, the lie has become not just moral category, but the pillar industry of this country.

Meanwhile, Israel continues to dismember Palestine. Looks like Palestinian land is gonna be up for sale to Israeli settlers soon. I suspect Jared Kushner and his corporate buddies just so happen to be deemed Israeli settlers now.

We are at day 1,446 of Russia’s war on Ukraine. Zelenskyy said that, in this past week, Russia launched more than 2,000 attack drones, 1,200 guided aerial bombs, and 116 missiles at Ukraine’s cities and villages. They're NOT interested in peace. DUH!

And Hillel and his lovely wife are still in Thailand where it’s warmer than 18º. I shouldn’t complain. Yesterday’s high, here in Valhalla was 4º. 18º is practically a heat wave. Woohoo.

Between all the snow, ice, arctic blasts off the bay and temps that would freeze a polar bear's ass, my sinuses are utterly fucked and I’m distinctly disinclined to go outside. Ten is not keen on taking our Mini out on the road either. Yes, this means I’ve canceled my dental surgery yet again. I feel rather embarrassed about this but it just can’t be helped. First cancellation – I was in hospital with my foot issue. Second cancellation – blizzard.

So, it’s understandable and not really my fault, right?! I think I’d be less anxious, more at ease about dental surgeries if they’d just knock me the fuck out for this shit. WHY do I have to be awake for this kind of torture?

Honestly!
