The more we learn about the Biden administration in particular, and Democrat leadership in general, I’m tempted to ask myself: “How could tens of millions of people (useful idiots) vote for these awful Democrats?”

But I can’t, in good conscience, be too judgmental of those voters.

I voted for Bill Clinton in 1992. By the time he ran for a second term, I’d had enough of him and voted for Bob Dole. Apparently, I learned my lesson.

I voted for Barack Obama in 2008. I thought his election might help racial healing in the country. In 2012, I voted for him again. Apparently, I did not learn my lesson.

The media, biased and lying, doesn’t make things easy for the average voter. None of us are invited to backroom meetings with powerful donors where the big decisions are made. We are forced to rely on unreliable media for information.

Sometimes we learn our lesson, sometimes we don’t.

I think the Democrat voters are wrong right now. But I suppose, if Trump steers us into World War III, I will be the one who once again failed to learn his lesson.

We live and learn. Or not.

Ever surf the Internet and stumble across a pic of someone you know — in her birthday suit?

Yeah, me too. Twice now.

I won’t say her name. But you want to see, so here she is in all her glory (not sure who the naked knee belongs to):

Alien: Romulus

 

Halfway through Alien: Romulus, when I realized that I was not likely to care about the film’s characters, I began to dread the final hour, which I (correctly) guessed would be frenzied, loud, and unoriginal. The cast, composed of attractive, vapid young people, had the charisma of teenagers trapped in cabins in the woods. This was not a crew of fleshed-out, interesting adults on a spaceship.

The plot, in which our youngsters attempt to escape manual labor on a space outpost, is just a series of greatest hits from its inspiration, the original Alien movies. Here is a partial checklist: milky android blood, acidic alien blood, chest-bursting, face-hugging, humans stuck in xenomorph goo. We saw it all before in the original films. Every time there was a reprise of some special moment, I was reminded of how much better the first flicks are.

That leaves jump scares and special effects, which are impressive, but not impressive enough to compensate for a lazy script.

I would be remiss not to mention this film’s ties to the age of “woke.” The deaths are predictable (it’s not good to be a white male; you are either evil or early alien-meat). As for our heroine, unlike beloved Ripley, whose battle chops are explained in the first two movies, young Rain (Cailee Spaeny) has no apparent training nor skills. Yet she is more than a match for the nasty aliens. And did they really swap Ripley’s pet cat for Rain’s pet black man? Doesn’t seem very woke to me. Release: 2024  Grade: C-

 

Would I watch it again? No. There are much better films in this franchise.

The Return of the Pussy

Poor Rosa Parks. From the back of the bus to the front of some panties.

 

If the Met Gala is any indication, looks like the pussy is back.

These things run in cycles. For example, 1992, the year in which Sharon Stone flashed the world her privates in Basic Instinct, was a year of the pussy.

2021, on the other hand, was the year Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez asked the world (aside from booty man Alex Stein) to admire her backside at the Met Gala (below).

 

 

But now, apparently, thanks to Halle Berry and singer Lisa, the pussy is back.

I mention all of this merely as a public service. That, and I wanted to post some pictures.

Civil War?

 

It should be common sense, and this is hardly an original thought on my part, but it seems to me that we need the left and we need the right.

Stereotypically, the left is composed of dreamers. Also stereotypically, the right is composed of practical thinkers.

Problems arise when one side dominates the other and seeks to impose its worldview.

In recent years, the left has gained control of just about every institution, and Biden imposed liberal policies on everyone.

Trump is the backlash. I don’t want Trump to dictate every social policy in perpetuity any more than I want the left to do the same.

 

I’d rather think about pussies.

I’ve been feeling a bit black-pilled this week. First, I got news that a close relative is not doing well, thanks to Alzheimer’s and that disease’s physical and mental toll.

Then I made the mistake of watching a Tim Pool podcast in which the panel discussed the likelihood of A.I. dismantling human civilization.

And now I’ve come down with a nagging toothache.

All of this means I am not in the mood to care about Trump or his enemies. 

 

I need a pick-me-up.  I need something pleasant and mindless.

I need to watch this:
