I Heard/read It Again: Grunge...
I heard/read it again: grunge...
I'm perplexed by that most meager of words that has been usurped by a crowd of folks that has little to no actual experience in getting grungy. Let's set the record straight: Grunge means you've been exposed to the dust of third world, real dirt. Not glitter, not metaphor, not a slight dusting of soil. Real dirt, real grungy shite, genuine grime. Grunge is the stuff of daily, ugly, exhausting toil and hardship. Life for the grungy is a battle, a war waged in solitude, against a world bent on breaking its targets. So if you don designer clothes; if you drop piles of money in a trendy coffee bauhaus; if you overuse the words 'literally' or 'legitimately' (let's just forget that you have no concept of usage and acceptable vernacular, if you do...); and if you've never gone to bed hungry, cold and dirty, and clinging to slim hope that tomorrow will be better than all your yesterdays, well then you have no idea what grunge is. True grunge, and the music and atmosphere it spawned, is a soulful thing, brought to life by people whose only refuge in the world was hard-bitten poetry transmuted into lyrical rollercoasters, grinding guitars and bone-jarring percussion. Kurt, Eddie, Chris... they were the Purveyors of Grunge. They bled and breathed against the grain, exhaling oxygen for the world to inhale, and in doing so, taught most of us to fucking care about those who usually went unnoticed, were spent up by an otherwise uncaring world. They were celestial in their grasp of God, humans, and struggle, and their starshine was earned and never contrived... unlike those who try to usurp the word 'grunge' to peddle their shite, their plastic baubles, their angled politics.
Note: if you managed to wade through this monologue but have not even an inkling of meaning in this prose, then I submit the notion that you need to step back and reassess just what the fuck you aim to achieve by casting about the term 'grunge'...

It's exhausting being a member of productive Trash Panda society. Pour him a drink, maybe offer a snack. Besides being hospitable, it's also a good way to turn your front porch into a Raccoon Club. Feed him and THEY will come...

I love the telltale sign that a liberal drone is at work in their posting: The comments are always turned off. That way no dissenting voices can be heard and it seems like their statement is the only one.
Well, sorry, sugar plum, but that's not how the real world works. You and the rest of your compatriots will have to do better... because we're not listening any more. The time of the Democrat Demise is upon us...
They keep doing this....
This is such a thing...
But then egos take over and the stories turn to shit...
reblog if you’ve read fanfictions that are more professional, better written than some actual novels. I’m trying to see something
Love it!

Pretty cool. My daughter and I grooved on this while we walked to her school this morning. Nice tempo-setting song for walking... and we may have free-form danced in the process. Love Daughter-Dad walks!
Now, will someone please go and round up this little troll and throw his ass in jail for his crimes against people all around the world? No clemency should ever be given to this asshole. His sentence should be several lifetimes.
Can a US president or an illegitimate president pardon US citizens that have not been convicted of a crime?
The answer is: NO.
A U.S. President cannot pardon individuals who have not been convicted of a federal crime. The power to pardon, as outlined in Article II, Section 2 of the U.S.
Constitution, is specifically for offenses against the United States after conviction.
This means the individual must have been legally charged and convicted before a pardon can be granted. If there was ever any doubt as to who bears responsibility for the COVID pandemic, Biden's pardon of Fauci forever seals the deal. 🤔
Nice.

Seagulls are just beach pigeons and have limited grace, style, and cleverness, while on the other hand, corvids are sleek, fast, have phenomenal visual acuity, are super intelligent, and have other attributes that place them well above other birds. And a Crow (and its cousin, the Raven), will interact with humans quite nicely, although if you make an enemy of one, for whatever reason, be prepared to deal with the consequences. For a long time...
And then there are the supernatural components to a corvid, but that's a topic for another post...

The funny thing in this skit is that it is no longer funny. No, sadly, this is what life has become in a great many places...
