You know who else goes to bed at 8? I do. I am a morning person, 20+ years junior to Biden, and I am useless after 9PM.
FFS, I begged out of Elton John's last concert ever (he played last month at our major conference Cisco Live) because it was past my bedtime (and I had spent 12 hours in a booth, and as a capital I introvert, that is goddamn exhausting duty)

You know what I’m 56 .. and I’m in bed at 8 pm you know why?!? I’m fucking tired.. my hubby starts work at 6 am and gets home at 6 pm. I’m on my damn feet all day long by the time I finish with work and making dinner and cleaning the house .. getting a load of laundry in the wash and folding clothes and trying to get my kids to put their laundry away or my older ones pick up your laundry you left me to do for you so I have room to get our stuff done.. walking the dogs in the morning and at night and feeding them and picking up after them and feeding the cat the lizard and making sure they have fresh clean water then I’m tackling all the phone calls missed because we’re fucking busy.. and taking care of aging elderly parents by picking up the multitude of prescriptions for them and physically checking on them every single day and making extra food for them so they don’t burn their house down and picking up their dry cleaning and taking them to their doctors appts. Because they can no longer drive.. then cleaning up dinner dishes at my house and restarting the dishwasher so I can put dishes away in the morning.. JFC I’m fucking exhausted. Oh and don’t forget all the other miscellaneous shit that goes wrong in my day that has to be rectified rescheduled and redone.. that’s my day every single fucking day.. CRY ME FUCKING RIVER .. whiny little shit 🖕🏽
That is a typical day for a wife and mother in today’s world. Something a typical man will never understand unless they take her place, which 99% of them will never do. So go ahead and bitch. You deserve to, swearing helps too!
MFKR Linda I’m just out of shits to give these youngsters.. they’re in their damn 20’s and have no fucking clue what life is like when you have responsibilities to your family.. my older kids JFC I want to smack the shit out of the on the daily.. then this snotty little child messaged me.. to actually reprimand me.. and again state her feelings about Joe and how old Joe is and he’s too old and tired.. and old people need to sit down and sit this one out.. OMG I’m just fucking livid..
I heard someone recently call USC the 'University of Spoiled Children'... works for me!! And these morons glueing themselves to stuff,and having their little tantrums in traffic,and throwing mashed potatoes at artworks for some reason,to protest...who cares? Your issue's relevance is destroyed by your idiotic,childish behavior,and they're usually doing it for clickbait for their social media,who needs real grassroots community organizing and real PEACEFUL protests when you have.... clickbait.
Exactly this!! Thank you so much for articulating the angst of the Gen XYZ whatever they call themselves today. And the social media nimrods who just post on social media about lip gloss or some inane bullshit. Not only can they not speak in correct sentences or use words correctly.. They’re dumb as stumps!!
Yeah I completely understand that one.. I’ve got my eldest daughter who tells me what to do and when to do it and my youngest daughter who was just here doing dad’s bookkeeping and when she left ..she left all her laundry sitting in the hallway and her dirty dishes all over the kitchen counter.. with food stuck on everything. But hey they’re up to date on their social media BS.. every minute of every single day.. the eldest informed me she doesn’t do social media..uh huh that’s cause you’re new boyfriend doesn’t like his personal shit out there.. and the youngest daughter SMH can you just channel Mom and get your shit together.. you look at her wrong and she starts the waterworks.. newsflash: it doesn’t with on me. It works on Dad..🙄
Sorry I’m tired of whiny little 20 something’s messaging me with their Biden is old BS cause he’s tired.. I swear to God these youngsters need to be bitch slapped
A very hip, impressive cane, I hope! Suitable for a youngster such as yourself.
Abraham Lincoln had a reedy, high-pitched voice. He couldn’t be elected in America today. Apparently Americans in his day were less concerned with appearances.
It’s partly cultural. In the UK, people without perfect teeth are allowed to present the news on TV, be taken seriously as experts in many professions, even win elections.
That is a perfect commentary on American’s obsession with youth, beauty, & perfection. I can’t even count how many times some twit on SM has replied to a comment of mine, not with a reasoned argument, but instead a snide, nasty, reference to my
not perfectly white teeth, or some other reference to age or lack of facial perfection. As if that has a god damn thing to do with my intelligence!!
Those will be the ones who end up looking like Kim Gargoyle, instead of aging gracefully.
Yes! Ms. Gargoyle isn’t even old! I would say what she has done to herself is tragic, if I had anything but contempt for her.
So Biden looks “frail.” For Halloween, maybe, he should be made up, wigged, and padded out to Trump’s dimensions. “How do you like it? Should I keep this look?”
Bruce you’re more than qualified you can read!! JFC I just can’t with these thumb suckers..I might need to borrow your cane and play wack o mole with their damn stupid heads.
At the height of the pandemic,I was patiently waiting in line at the grocery store,socially distanced and masked up,next in line. Some unmasked red hat decided he was going to crash the door,right through a little store employee,I wasn't having it,and dispatched him with extreme prejudice. He got up off the ground to retrieve his red hat,and he said 'What the hell are you,the line monitor?'
'I am now...little MAGA bitch'...the following applause was most rewarding.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Some nimrod said somewhere not to use emojis. Well, here’s what I say to that! Otherwise you would never know how loud I’m clapping for your action there.
You can't really get involved whenever someone is acting like a complete asshole,there's just too many,you'll end up in jail,but during the pandemic there were 'essential workers', people who are risking their own health and wellness to do their jobs,(my VA doctor had COVID 4 times)a lot of the time for low pay,and you're going to be abusive to them?? Not on my watch...
Yup 👍🏽 just ask my husband.. but he actually agrees with me because he works 12 hour days and I’m backing him up and taking care of everything he knows he can’t get finished. That’s what marriage is. Backing each other up and he knows not to even criticize because he also knows without fail I get shit done. I usually do not have a temper but they’re some young dumbass adulting kids and their OPINIONS and what as adults we need to be doing instead… like it’s a death knell that they are people on this planet older than 30..omg they need to be put out to pasture cause we’re too old. We forget oh and look they have gray hair.. I started going gray at 18-19.. and as a hairstylist I’m letting my gray grow in.. oh it’ll make you look old or oh I could never do that.. well too damn bad.. I’m 56 I’m letting my gray hair grow out and I still rock 6 pack abs after birthing 4 kids.. with 2 of them deceased.. my ass is mostly in the northern hemisphere but wanting margaritas south of the border.. It’s not easy aging for anyone over a certain age but we all go thru it. Or I hope we live long enough to be able to go thru it.. but there’s this double fucking standard for women. And I’m so fucking tired of it. My hubby has a belly and I love his big belly.. he’s gray and his hair is thinning a bit and I love every thing about him .. and when I’m heated he makes me laugh.. he knows if he can get a giggle out of me all is well.. when he can’t he gets worried because I’m usually extremely happy. I’m Hawaiian I cruise along until I don’t.. but slamming other women for aging when they’re still too young to know a damn thing single with no children and thinking oh that will never be me.. and then actually tell you to sit down old lady.. oh fuck that bullshit. JFC I wish I could drink!!
Honey, I only know you through your lively comments but I love you and know whereof you speak. Keep on keeping on you wonderful woman. By the way, I’m old enough to be your mama and yours did a great job with you.
OMGEE!! You brought tears to my eyes. Thank you that is highest praise indeed. I just cannot stand when thumb suckers discount age and wisdom and then men who discount aging women.. like we’re less than because we’re aging. Oh she let herself go.. I hear that one a lot. Let’s see how men handle Menopause.. being female isn’t easy and then an aging female?!? It’s like we don’t exist any longer. We’re not viable. And I’m really really sick of it. This double standard that we’ve endured forever. So I get really salty about the subject and when I tell people my age they look at me like your face looks so young and then they comment my body still looks good?!? Like wtf?!? I’m aging I’m not dead..I don’t need to turn any man’s head or a man telling me oh you look good for your age.. I just want them to be respectful at any age or shape.. if a woman gets heated JFC men get “ OH, you’re in a mood.” Wtf?!? I’m in a mood?? You had an opinion so why can’t I.. and it’s 2024 and men are still giving the same bs to women.. if we have an opinion or get angry we’re hysterical.. they don’t even process what we’re even trying to convey .. we just get thrown into a grouping of.. single older women who no man wants.. because we’re difficult.. we’re not difficult we’re just tired of the misogynistic BS .. and not all men are like this. There are some really great men out there. I’m really thankful I was raised by one and that I am married to one.. I’m truly blessed.
Another word for all of this is ageism. I dealt with that in my last full time job at a school district. I was the oldest one in the department and was reminded on a regular basis that what I thought and did was no longer relevant. The thing is, all the teachers and hundreds of students that I worked with over the years thought otherwise. So I dug in my heels and continued doing what I knew was successful and then I retired when I had enough of their BS. Six months later the horrible superintendent of the district obliterated the department and most of those youngsters got laid off, including the worst department director and her Nazi-like sergeants serving under her. All I can say is
Ain’t that the truth!! I swear it’s like my own personal heat wave in summer with record temperatures.. then after I’m sweating to death.. I’m freezing.. God I wish I could sleep thru the night but I switch between kicking the blanket off then having to grab my Ugg blanket to put on top of my quilt only to kick everything off again.. all night long.. and hubby just sleeps right through all of it.. he’s such a good soul.. God to be able to sleep thru the night without waking up a million times would be heaven..
Freeze plastic bottles full of water and keep them in a cooler by your bed. They were the only things that would give me relief from the fire that was burning between my breasts 🥵. So glad that’s over now. Use liberally as needed and if spouse gives you grief, I’m sure you can figure out what to do with the spare you’ll have on hand.
When I go to the gym, I get hot and sweaty, right? Then a "power surge" starts to happen and I honest to god think I'm gonna faint. I have to sit down for a minute to collect myself! 🤣 And at night... you describe it perfectly. Theres a drug called Veozah thats supposed to "cure" this...but JFC! WITH my insurance it would be $249 a month. That pisses me off too. To be a girl you have to be tough and brave!!
I've long said that it's a good thing for the survival of the human race that men don't get pregnant. They could never handle pregnancy, much less labor and delivery.
ABSOLUTELY! I delivered my daughter totally Lamaze - I worked hard to understand how to deal with it naturally. And yes, a few F Bombs were shouted but it was so worth it! 😂 Honestly, a man could never understand the pain.
Oh if I could just drink a vodka with Passion Fruit syrup on lots of ice I’d be so happy right now.. OMGEE .. I get 2 TBSP only but it would be worth every single sip and I’d gulp that down in a nano second !! Nah I’d savor every sip..😍
Done if I can find the passion fruit syrup here. If not, it’ll have to be maracuya and vodka. Still good. I used to be a bartender so I’ll come up with something and name it after you; then drink it to your health.
I don’t know how you can fit everything you do into a 24-hour day. You must be exhausted. Are your kids old enough to help out with tasks like walking the dogs or helping with basic food prep?
You're a kindred spirit, Geoff. I'm 70, work full time and go the bed at 7:30. I get up at 4:30 am to walk before it's 115 in Phoenix. I'm a raging introvert as well. Working is all the socializing I can stand. It's not exhilarating. It's horrible.
You know who else goes to bed at 8? I do. I am a morning person, 20+ years junior to Biden, and I am useless after 9PM.

Unfortunately I don't speak 'like'...and 'influencers' for Chrissakes, I don't take advice from basement dwellers who've never had a real job...
I got one of them !🤯
Yeah I completely understand that one.. I’ve got my eldest daughter who tells me what to do and when to do it and my youngest daughter who was just here doing dad’s bookkeeping and when she left ..she left all her laundry sitting in the hallway and her dirty dishes all over the kitchen counter.. with food stuck on everything.

they all will if trump is elected
PREACH!
I walk with a cane at 62 years old,I guess that makes me 'unqualified'.
But it gives you something to hit 'em with if they mouth off. Kidding
A very hip, impressive cane, I hope! Suitable for a youngster such as yourself.

😄😄😄😄,this is a pretty standard issue cane,given to me at the VA,I guess they assume I know how to use it in a pinch, 😜
Swing away Bruce!! Booyah!!
That is a perfect commentary on American’s obsession with youth, beauty, & perfection. I can’t even count how many times some twit on SM has replied to a comment of mine, not with a reasoned argument, but instead a snide, nasty, reference to my

I hear you, and I agree 💯%👊💙

WTAF was that?
Same here
I need a high thread count, a firm mattress and at least 8 hours.
I missed my about 4pm nap because of my 4th of July activities yesterday, I'll catch up today....
An afternoon snooze is the best!!!
If I can just get 8 hours it would be amazing
You're a kindred spirit, Geoff. I'm 70, work full time and go the bed at 7:30. I get up at 4:30 am to walk before it's 115 in Phoenix. I'm a raging introvert as well. Working is all the socializing I can stand. It's not exhilarating. It's horrible.
What I miss about Arizona is no daylight savings time. That was awesome
