Bluntness

I've also been told I have little tact, so if this offends you simply ride on.

Voter suppression... and other things.

So, I switched things up doing my Cardio today rather than strength training.  Here the link if you want to see today's cardio.  I think this will work better for me.
I spent about 2 hours yesterday with a very nice couple who are a bit... out of touch with the real world.  They want to get new carpet installed in 4 bedrooms, there's nothing wrong with that, however they want each room to have a different color which translates into mucho buckos.  Most carpet comes in rolls that are 12 feet wide and rooms longer or wider than that require seems.  Normally, installers will use the remnants from one room to fill in the space in another room; different colors in each room means there's no usable remnants so you need to buy more carpet.  They went home to think about it, which is good.  What's odd is that the colors were chosen for specific children, all of whom moved out a long time ago... maybe they're expecting them to move back.
Oh, and I see that the Idiot in the White House desperately wants to prove that there were millions and millions of fraudulent voters during the last election... supposedly because he can't believe he lost the popular vote.  That last bit I can totally understand - the ego, you know.  The fact that he can't correlate his low approval ratings with that vote is... more than a little pathetic, but then, of course, those crazy conservatives don't believe those either.  In fact they are so mired down by their need to point their fingers and label everything as "fake news" they wouldn't know the truth if it hit them on the head.   Which is... going to happen.  Codifying the last 4 digits of the voting public's Social Security numbers, as well as their voting records... well... the Idiot must have gotten that idea from the Russians.  The best way to eliminate your enemies is to find exactly who they are and where they live, and for Republicans the enemy is anybody and everybody who didn't vote straight party ticket.  I wouldn't be surprised if this was Steve Bannon's idea.  I mean it sounds like his mealy brained bullshit.

Well, it's off to work.

  1. Thankfully the majority of states are telling him to go fuck himself, even my own deeply-red Arizona...which is surprising.

    1. I think that's because most people know, even Conservatives, that the Idiot is truly bad for America.

  2. This latest bit if egomaniacal behavior might be the beginning of the death knell for his presidency. If the GOP turns on him, he's gone.

    1. Once they realize just how worthless he is, they're going to throw his ass to the Russian dogs.
