POLITICAL PONDERABLES

I HAVE MOVED THIS SECTION TO BELOW PUZZLE TIME SO IT CAN BE EASILY IGNORED.

Adult friendships are hard because everyone is really, really tired.

PEOPLE UNLIKE THE REST OF US

^^B1^^

^^B2^^

^^B3^^

That must be enlarged to the maximum to see why it is NSFW.

Oh, hell with it. I did it for you...

^^B4^^

And for you Americans...

BTW It shouldn't but it does bug the shit out of me that the gigantic balloon caption pointer extends all the way to the lips. That is far from necessary.

*And to remind you - they were not killed they were captured.

^^B5^^

My friend took this image...

And made it into this that he calls Splashpoint...

I added the pile of shit.

^^B6^^

When you found out Pornhub has joined the fight against Russian aggression.

^^B7^^

^^B8^^

Woodpeckers bang their heads into trees at 15 miles an hour, 12,000 times a day.

FOR AMUSEMENT ONLY

Keep it classy, Alabama.

^^C1^^

It's just too silly to argue.

^^C2^^

^^C3^^

^^C4^^

What a wonderful use of language.

^^C5^^

^^C6^^

^^C7^^

Ester Williams, She Is Not

^^C8^^

What it is is numbness

^^C9^^

In my opinion, the worse part of being a vampire would be that I couldn't eat garlic.

WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT

Layers of ice drifting by Chicago's wind gust.

^^D1^^

Humorous juxtaposition at its finest.

^^D2^^

In honor of that scene in The Godfather?

^^D3^^

*MNBT

^^D4^^

And now for something completely different!

^^D5^^

This street dog in Georgia has made it his job to ensure the daily kindergarten class crosses the road safely. What a good boy!

^^D6^^

^^D7^^

Fast Food

^^D8^^

Balloon Fun

Moviemaking

^^D10^^

What do a man who has had a vasectomy and a Christmas tree have in common?

Decorative balls.

AND AWRY WE GO

For the lesson to stick, there must be a price to pay for an error.

^^E1^^

The parents could attempt to explain the principle of forward momentum until the cows come home...or just let him learn the hard way.

^^E2^^

How could anyone think that this was a good idea?

^^E3^^

^^E4^^

"Honey, would you pick up some sturgeon on the way home?"

^^E6^^

It's just a plastic cone, he thought...

^^E6^^

Now think of what is in that water:

Oil

Pet urine

Human urine

Pet feces

Human vomit

Pet vomit

Human spit

Pet drool

Human feces

Lawn fertilizer 

Pesticides

Rotting discarded food

Chemicals leaking from trucks

Dissolved tissues

Condom contents

Scabs

^^E7^^

I must have written that before staythefuckathome.

Can you spot the oddness?

POLITICAL PONDERABLES

Never forget - we outnumber them. They might be louder and more vicious but our sheer numbers must prevail.

But like everyone else I oscillate.

^^A1^^

It must be evident to everyone that our democracy is much more fragile than we had thought. As a patriot, if you don't like what your country is doing then vote the scoundrels out - don't try to overthrow the government.

A viewer opined that the people who stormed the Capital while they were counting the electoral college tally posed no threat to our form of government. But we really don't know that for sure. Had they seized the ballots we would be in uncharted waters. There are no rules to deal with such a thing.

^^A2^^

That would be me. But unlike most old people I realize we fucked the generations to come.

^^A3^^

As far as I can tell being Woke just means you have experienced a rebirth of long-lost empathy.

Some folks say, "It hasn't happened to me so I don't care."

Others say, "This shouldn't happen to anyone therefore I care.

The choice is yours but you must choose wisely.

^^A4^^

It is so sad to watch the once-proud GOP implode on a bed of lies. I am not attempting to suggest that the Dems are perfect, but remember they threw out Senator Franken for a thirty-year-old bad joke. It seems as if the modern GOP leaders are incapable of expelling anyone no matter how egregious the offense.

^^A5^^

But I would not call being a racist as thinking "slightly differently".

^^A7^^

What are black people allowed to think about the same period you honor? It was the worst times of their collective lives and to see you celebrate it must, at least, be disconcerting.

^^A8^^

This is the most American shit ever...

^^A9^^

Maybe, just maybe, we will all get through this with a more profound love of our democracy.

^^A10^^

Maybe. I will confess that I never dreamed that America had so many racist pricks as is demonstrated almost daily nowadays.

^^A11^^

^^A12^^

I am coming to the conclusion that Republicans are against ANYTHING that the Democrats are for and that includes climate change.

^^A13^^

The Problem With Texas
