some days, you just have to listen to Ms. Spouse

you really do

hey folks —

today is my birthday. I’m 68 entire years old.

I don’t normally announce my personal landmarks — but I’m doing it this morning as an explanation of why you’re getting this post, instead of my usual twelve-hundred-word rant.

it’s Ms. Spouse’s fault.

take the goddamned day off already, you compulsive workaholic idiot, she sagely counseled. it’s your birthday. sleep in for once, and then we’ll go out and have a nice brunch.

ok, fine. she talked me into it — because, as the title of this post says, some days, you just have to listen to Ms. Spouse.

so have a great Sunday, everyone, and I’ll be back tomorrow with a proper full post.

no, wait. I couldn’t let you go away empty-handed. I wouldn’t be a compulsive workaholic idiot if I did.

I saw this clip of Couchfuck McGee going full fascist on Laura Ingraham’s show and I could not let it go unremarked upon.

“Europe is at risk of engaging in civilizational suicide. they are unwilling to control their borders … if you have a country like Germany, where you have another few million immigrants come in from countries that are totally culturally incompatible with Germany, then it doesn’t matter what I think about Europe. Germany will have killed itself.”

wait, where have I heard this ‘immigrants are culturally incompatible with Germany’ rhetoric before? oh, right — it was this asshole.

Couchfuck is still having a great big hissy over Germany’s refusal to hug their neo-Nazis like America does. and he’s speaking in coded language — because these fascist shitweasels always have to have secret slogans they use to signal to each other, like some fucked-up mating call.

civilizational suicide is prime ‘great replacement theory’ hogwash. it’s supposedly what happens when white folks don’t reproduce fast enough: soon, the swarthy immigrants outnumber them, and boom! your civilization is gone — because, of course, migrants from god-knows-where can’t possibly be ‘civilized.’

imagine lecturing Germany for being insufficiently racist. how horrifying. they had to be on the losing end of a world war in order to rid themselves of this monstrous shit the first time around — and now here it comes again, knocking on their door in the form of some unpleasant furniture fucker.

Germany doesn’t want you to save it, JD. Germany wants you to leave it the fuck alone.

by the way, upon hearing JD’s words, Elon got so aroused that he spontaneously sieg heiled, like some fucked-up Dr. Strangelove.

here’s your daily reminder that I can be found on Blue Sky at this link.

this is going to be my closing message for the foreseeable future:

practice self-care. do what you need to do to keep sane. if that means you need to disengage with my daily posts for a while, I get it. this community of ours will still be here when you return.

to all the people who have signed on in the days since the election, welcome aboard. settle in as we all try to deal with the shitfuckery that’s ahead of us.

we are all in this together, and we are all here for each other.
