AND GRAVY FOR THE MASSES

Everytime I look at comment strings under news, I see a number of Trumpites shitting all over everything. It's like a junior prom version of the Young Republicans. Slightly fewer nasty digs at African Americans, Asian Americans, Jews, Latinos, Muslims, and Native Americans. Because they know it will get them axed. Far more sneers, slights, outright falsehoods, and approved government talking points.

The good thing is that there are no calumnies directed at Dutch Americans and pipesmokers. We are not a significant blob on their admittedly limited mental horizons, and that, basically, is what people like me are for.

Excoriating hard-core bible-thumping cretins in Michigan is something I occasionally do. Fortunately, there are far fewer of those trogs in the current administration. I guess they weren't vicious enough.

By the way: they aren't many of them in Placer County either. The rot there is all home-grown inbred Anglo etcetera. Syphilis rates there have stabilised, because they just keep intercoursing themselves. Bless their hearts.

Fortunately I do not have to deal with such people very much when I'm off work; they stay in that one suburban venue festering in their own bile and cheering for the local football team, because it represents all that they hold dear and no one kneels for the anthem anymore.

As organised and televised team sports often do.
Junkfood and beer advertisers demand it.
All-American cheese, grease, salt.
It's what people love.
Patriotic!



Delicately I raise a minute pinch of Fribourg & Treyer snuff to my refined nostrils, and sniff deeply, appreciatively. Mmm, lotus fragrance! Bugger the sports pigs.



Do you see a television in that book room illustrated above? Well, do you? It isn't there. During the football, baseball, basket ball, and ice hockey seasons there is naught to watch, and now that the Trump regime has yanked funding for PBS there isn't enough money to pay the British for their snooty productions, which are literate and well acted by clearly enunciating people with correct diction for their class.

Certain accents, like Belfast, Cockney, Mississippi, and Gronings set my teeth on edge.
Oxford, Cambridge, Dick Cavett, and Den Haags are fine.
Glaswegian and Liverpool, just no.
Gibberish.



Speakers from Texas, on the other hand .....
Sometimes quite eleoquent.
