For the record: I get that Palin is paid to make these rash statements that tote the party line on a variety of topics. She’s a less fiery, easily stupider Ann Coulter. Still, following her latest statements about Bill Nye and climate change, I want to pay Rhonda Rousey to punch her in the face. Real Hard.
It might be a function of middle age to become less tolerable of nonsense as you become aware of your biological clock stumbling towards zero. To quote my favorite meme, “Aint nobody got time for that.” So, I’m acknowledging the stupid and then I will move on. Here it goes: To spend your time arguing that we are doing no damage to the environment is to ignore the obvious changes occuring to the environment through the encroachment of earth’s most dangerous STD: Man. Keystone, the pipeline many legislators fought so hard to open, stating that it would not damage the environment has already leaked 16,800 gallons of oil into that ‘unharmed environment.’ So, yeah, Shenanigans.
Some Thoughts:
- I get stuck on certain things and have trouble letting them go. I think about sports way more than I should. I think about exercising far more than I actually make an effort to do some. This rule also applies to cleaning and gardening.
- Jamie Alexander of Blindspot fame is also Lady Sif of Asgard. Yep, same chick. I liked her then, and I still will not watch that show.
- Blacklist is a whole different matter.
- Back to the sports thing, it feels like that is all I talk about these days, though it is not. Still it occupies better than 60% of conversational time, making it a significant part of the day-to-day. Too much. I need to make an effort to reduce it and be about more stuff.
