Congrats to #RichardBranson and #JeffBezos for proving this week that human advancement is made possible by #fossilfuels.
May they never again babble on about #ClimateChange and the need for “green energy” as they have burned millions of gallons of carbon-rich rocket fuel… for fun.
May they never again demand we- the mere 1 comma club- “transition” to “alternatives” as their carbon footprint is larger than a lifetime of middle American families.
May they never again lecture us about what we need to do, how we must reimagine our livelihoods or reorder our lives, when they use more fossil fuels than most African nations, again, just for fun. Just cause.
May Sir Richard Branson and Lord High Jeff Bezos, even just for a second, appreciate the millions of men and women energy workers whose very labor propelled them into space… for fun.
But alas I know the eco left. And tomorrow they will get awards from all the green groups they fund to leave them alone. All you ED’s of “Mothers for a Green blah blah” funded by these two, silently sitting there reading this stewing in your lukewarm hypocrisy juices… I see you

Mr. President: Mayors are reporting that daily US government buses are dropping off hundreds of illegals in their towns with no money & food, and absolutely no plan. You talk about equity often so when will any bus of illegals arrive in Wilmington? #bidenpressconference
Mr. President: You campaign on "the soul of this nation" and in 2 months you have turned our southern border into the world's top drug smuggling and sex trafficking destination. Is this reflective of the soul of your son Hunter? #bidenpressconference
Mr. President: Your actions have laid of thens of thousands of energy workers and lead to a 30% increase in prices. Why will buying solar panels from china's Uighur slave camps make this situation better? #bidenpressconference

One of the least reported facts is that millions of government workers have been sitting on their sofas at home for 1 year now accruing PTO, getting 401k match, COLA adjusted salaries & full benefits and they do not do a damn thing.
I know Trump appointees whose “staff” refused to bring home their laptop (contaminated!) last year and even refuse to log on at home. They can’t be fired from their jobs.
When I ran an office at state it was a known dumping ground for pain in the butt employees. I was under orders to ignore them. I had dozens just in that office. Couldn’t be fired.

Tomorrow millions of you will appropriate Irish culture. You'll wear our colors, play our music, eat and drink our heritage. You'll even try to speak our language.

When I protest you'll say something like "my best friend is Irish" as if that makes it OK.

I'm literally shaking.
If you wear a "Kiss me I'm Irish" sticker and you're not actually Irish... literally shaking.

You think we make light of ale and whiskey? These are symbols of a people oppressed for 400+ years by the crown.

Literally. Shaking.
It's just corned beef and cabbage- what's the big deal, right?

Like cultural appropriation isn't a big deal.

Sure, wear green. Might as well have put a bullet in my Granda's head, Cromwell.

Shaking. I can't even.

I didn't watch the Grammy's and I don't really follow pop music. My favorite musicians are dead. But I got some thoughts about what everyone's tweeting up in arms and it has to do with originality. So here goes:
The WAP performance... I'm an 80's child. Madonna made out with Black Jesus who came down from the cross. You think WAP is going to "shock" me? There's nothing original about this. Call it crass or vulgar- sure. But, quite honestly, it's boring. So, so boring.
Same with the boy band dude who wore a boa.

After David Bowie, Freddie Mercury, Boy George, George Michael... you think I'm gonna jump at a Brit wearing women's clothes?

So, so boring... I mean we've seen all this for DECADES.

Try harder.

There is one script for every reality home renovation show. Whoever wrote it is a genius and must be making a fortune. The script includes:

Knock out this wall between the kitchen & dining room to give a more open feel.
In the living room I want to use the fireplace to anchor the room and give it a focal point.

Then in the kitchen we’ll put a big island for the kids to do homework and eat breakfast.
New hardwood floors throughout to add continuity throughout the home.

The master bedroom should be a sanctuary.

The master bath should have a spa like feel.
