Shiiid, Let Him Be One Then...

It's not as though it's a compliment.

(I'm just done with the eternal victim.)

Bullied !?!?!?

Well, that didn't work out like she planned and now the comedian is complaining that she is being bullied by the Trump family?
WTF is up with all these snowflakes tossing around trigger words to gain sympathy for microagressions or their own mistakes?

Maybe I'm old but back in my day we shut up and took our licks - be it a paddling at school, a fight at the playground or a beating by our elders.

Back in my day our errors were not justified by coddling parents who were worried about our feelings or in building a false sense of confidence.

Back on my day we knew that there were usually consequences to our actions.

BULLIED?

Bitch please.

How can someone be bullied when it was they who started the fight?

Shiiid..... We even had a song about it.

Single Payer Insurance in Cali?

I'd have to agree with Miss USA - healthcare is a privilege not a right.
I know, I know - people need healthcare.
So what - people need food too but people still have to pay for it.

California is set to vote on a bill which would provide healthcare to all of its 39 million residents at a cost of $400 bn. (Some studies say that the program would save the state $37 ml annually)

The thing is, I think there should be some type of universal coverage.
-The Veterans Health Administration covers about nine million individuals.
-Indian Health Services covers about 2.2 ml Native Americans.
-Medicaid/Medicare cover another 44 ml people.
Why can't all of these programs be combined under one umbrella program?
Add to this another 11 ml covered by Obama care.
I'm sure if these programs were merged that they could be used as a template for Universal Health Care for the entire country.

(Just gratuitous photos of a tall (5'10"), fit woman with her OWN natural hair and no waist-trainer.)

Y'all Are Too 'Smart' For Your Own Good

Trump just misspelled 'CoV-Fefe' - no big deal.
I explained earlier that Trump thinks he's a rapper and the HPIC (Head Pimp in Charge).

If Lil' Wayne can expand the meaning of 'Bling-Bling' you know Trump just had to outdo him by creating a new word himself.
You know he's using Urban Dictionary and not one of the traditional sources.
According to Urban Dictionary;
CoV - Confirmation of Victory.
Fefe - Originating in Chicago, meaning: a party.
Covfefe - "A Victory Party".

Trump was just throwing shade at Obama because Obama stole some of Trump's shine during their concurrent trips to Europe.
Trump knows that Chicago is Obama's adopted hometown so The Donald wanted to speak in a way that Obama would understand.

Trump learned not to say things like 'pussy' - that would be indecorous.
What Trump was tweeting was in essence 'Suck My Dick' - but he can't tweet that.
'Victory Party Motha-fucka' ' wouldn't work either.
Covfefe!
Yep that's it.
That's the meaning Sean Spicer was hinting at.
And y'all thought Trump had no Street-Cred.

Pat Fuckin' Robertson?

As Jeff Sessions is set to get tough on crime and mandatory sentencing it seems that he has one Conservative detractor.

I don't really watch the 700 Club but I catch it from time to time while I'm checking in on my elderly women.
Last week I'm pretty sure I heard Pat Robertson say that Session's War on Drugs policy would be detrimental?

Pat Robertson?
Pat.
Fucking.
Robertson.

But then I googled the video - I couldn't find it.
What I did find was that Pat must have suffered from Glaucoma between 2010 and 2014, when he stated that marijuana should be decriminalized.

Just Being a Troublemaker

 Just in time for Summer!
What if I had a pair of flip-flops made with the Confederate Flag on the bottom?
Y'all lost - get over it.

I could put the American Flag on the upper portion of the sandal to show that the Americans won the war.

Or I could really be a dick and place the Black Power Flag above that of the Confederate.

Sure - there would be a lot of angry Billy-Bobs but I'd sure make a lot of money on Juneteenth  and The Fourth of July.

Best A.I.

A computer as the next GO champion...?
Impressive.
A computer that can solve Rubik's Cube in less than a second...?
Incredible.
And computers have been beating humans in chess four years so, meh...

What I'm impressed with is the computer/robot that can beat humans in foosball.
Foosball?
The game for drunken college kids?
Yep.
The thing is - foosball requires a great deal of luck.
Even the best foosball players make mistakes or misstrike the ball - and sometimes these end up being beneficial.
Any machine that has figured out how to defeat luck is pretty impressive.

It's All to Be Expected

 What's all the hub-bub, bub?
I don't get the surprise from some who couldn't imagine that Russia would try to influence the outcome of an American election.

Just glancing at America's involvement over the past fifty years, America has had an almost constant presence in other country's business - even in democratically elected governments.

During the Cold War (roughly between 1947 to 1989) America had intervened in the affairs of foreign rulership at least 72 times.

Here is a quick look. An asterisk (*) denotes a successful regime change do to our intervention;
North Vietnam 45-73
Cambodia 55-70
Chile 64-73 *
Greece 67 *
Costa Rica 70-71 *
Bolivia 71 *
Australia 73-75 *
Angola 75
Zaire 75
Portugal 74-76 *
Jamaica 76-80 *
Seychelles 79-81
Libya 80's
Chad 81-82*
Grenada 83*
South Yemen 82-84
Suriname 82-84
Fiji 87*
Nicaragua 81-90*
Panama 89*

The problem isn't that Russia may have been trying to influence an election in a way that would benefit them - America does that all the time.

 But there is still a problem if someone within the American government is/was working with a foreign government to influence an election.

And now comes all of the Alex Jones listeners.
Jones claims that Noam Chomsky predicted that Trump would attempt to distract the media with some sort of False Flag perpetrated by a terrorist.

Then along comes the Manchester attack.
Manchester - while not a small town at a little over 500,000 people - is not a big city.
In fact, all I know about Manchester us their music scene.
From The Hollies and Herman's Hermits, to 10cc and the Bee Gees, to The Smiths and New Order, to 808 State and the Chemical Brothers, to Oasis - Manchester seems to have always had an influence on Pop music.
But besides for it's music scene the smallish Northern England town didn't seem like a high value target.

Not to go all Hypertiger with these lists and numbers but the whole '22' coincidence kind of got my attention.
Norway Attack 22-07-11
Lee Rigby 22-05-13
Brussels Attack 22-09-16
Munich Attack 22-07-16
Manchester 22-5-17

To be honest...
With all these facts, counter-facts and alternative facts there is no wonder the world seems to be in a constant state of mania.
