Fatwa Arbuckle: Misanthropologist

I am not feeling cute today. 😉

OTOH, BK was doing reasonably well last night; still slug-a-bed this morning.

Paddy --

Hope your chicken and leek pies were tasty.

Sven --

Those lodging prices are stunning; holy carp!

I get deeply depressed every week when I go grocery shopping. And I’m exceedingly tired of having to shrug and act like this inflation -- and the shit economy -- is “just the way it is”.

I’ll stop right there.

======================

I quite agree with this screed:

I stopped returning carts when
I realized I was helping to free
up capital to a union who helps
people who hate me
elect
appoint and
hire
more people who hate me.

That’s pretty profound, Fatwa. Seriously. And coming from Danzig -- who knew?

Regarding inflation, the elites want to keep pissing in my ear and telling me it’s rain. I know it’s not and I also know that they will keep on pissing on me regardless of what they say. Eventually though, their bladders will be empty.

There are real difficult and dangerous times coming -- I wish I were younger so I could see how it all turns out.

There’s an understatement.

“It’s really a cautionary tale that any use of nuclear weapons could be a catastrophe for the world,” the study’s author, Rutgers climate scientist Alan Robock, said.

Mrs Sven says hello. She likes the coon pictures. In fact, if you did a coon pic every day, she’d spend time here.

A blessed Sabbath, Gerbil Nation!
Good day, Fatwa, Sven, Mac, and dv8 (and Harper!)!

Fatwa -- the chicken and leek pies turned out great -- the best batch ever. Today I’m baking a second batch of Stollen. All but one of the loaves will be given to friends. I hope by starting them early that they’ll develop that wonderful, rich taste that only aging in spirits can bring.

Sven -- I’m with you regarding both the economy and nuclear warfare. I wonder if the elites of the world think that they’ll be able to emerge from their bunkers and enjoy all the benefits that an industrialized world has to offer? Are they really that stooopid? (rhetorical question -- I believe they are.)

dv8 -- just don’t start using beard oil -- the intersectionality might cause an inter-dimensional locus of allusion.
(No, the previous sentence is not meant to actually mean anything.)

Exactly! The photo clearly shows that you’ve been transported to a mirror universe!

I’m not sure when it happened, but I’ve had the feeling things weren’t right for quite a while : )
