You pretty much know the world has taken a wrong turn and has gone totally bat shit crazy when you see the following as a news headline:
I know babies/toddlers potty train at different age levels, and I know Ben was into that phase earlier than other friends that had babies about the same time. He graduated to padded cloth briefs and would NEVER pee in them… but he sure did love pooping in his ‘big boy’ underwear. If I had to ask for permission to change him, he would’ve worn shit for days.
What’s wrong with people?
This type of craziness isn’t just in parenting, you guys. It’s across the board. I know I talk a whole lot about common sense and here I go again… It might also be a good time to stop listening to politicians. I put in my earbuds, cranked up my sweeper, and listened to the speakers prior to voting on releasing the Epstein files. 90% of those speaking got all dressed up to act like a heathen. Yelling and spouting disrespectful commentary picking at each other — it’s disgraceful.
Like Dharma, I understand I’m on the outside looking in… (For the record, she may look pitiful but she LOVES being outside in the rain.)
As I listened to many of the Democrat speakers saying, “Trump could release those files today! Why won’t he?” <—same thing over and over using slightly different wording, I’m wondering why the heck Trump won’t just release all the darned files. After the vote, I looked it up, “Can Trump release the Epstein files today — and if so, why won’t he?” Here’s what I found:
Trump could direct DOJ to release more documents, declassify materials, or otherwise push for transparency — and in fact, his administration has released Epstein-related documents — but he can’t unilaterally force the release when there are legal constraints. (Could this be why he instructed the DOJ to investigate the people he named… to delay release?) Matter of fact, there are three federal judges who have rejected Justice Department / Trump-administration requests to unseal Epstein-related grand jury materials. And they are all Democrats! (1 appointed by Clinton and 2 appointed by Obama.)
My main takeaway? Either those elected to branches of government speak to one another with respect and at a normal modulated tone, or they should be required to dress the way they act so we can spot the barbarians before they open their mouth.
In a land far away from the Internet there is normalcy.
Go out and get ya some of that (even if the weather is ugly) before you cross over to the land of some sort of alternate reality — an insane place where “normal” means women are men and men can have babies and you need consent to change a dirty diaper. It’s like the Twilight Zone on steroids out there — guard your common sense because everyone is trying to take it away from you.
Now you know: In 2016, a monkey fell onto an electrical transformer, shorting it and causing the entire country of Kenya to have no electricity for 4 hours. The monkey survived.
