and I am comfortable revealing that I miss discussion/physical touch by men. Sons and sons-in-law do not really count but are helpful.
So, not into the church or bar scene I decided to invest in online dating sites. A disappointing suck of money, yes. I had a very nice lunch with a 93 y/o, we could talk architecture, he could talk WWII. Sigh.
Pulse, it proves that those who deride and sneer at what they call "identity politics," they are absolutely right. Because gay people, they are, like, totally safe and stuff. They are just like everybody else, gay people, and that is the way they are regarded and treated—just like everybody else—and by everyone, and all over the world. And so the gay people, they should leave off all that gay wedding cake dilettantism, and get down to what is really important. Like, you know: money. They should all be out auditing the fed, buying some gold, bathing in rubles. That Omar Mateen fellow, he did not kill all those Pulse people because they were gay. Heavens no. Instead, he targeted them because of . . . uh . . . uh . . . uh . . . uh . . . class! Yeah. That's it. That's the ticket. Class.
It is really so peculiar. How so many of the humans. They so order their lives. Around books written by people. Who are so . . . dead.
I am staying at a friends place in Cali and they watch a lot of corporate news -- I mean, A LOT!
The tone of the last week has been monotonous and rather boring -- Hillary's coronation and the Drumpf. It was a low intensity, bored howl. A bit aggressive and standoffish, to keep the edge, but it was sedate.
(This leaves aside the fact that our national gov’t, as well as that of plenty of states, is run by assholes who think everybody should have guns and carry them everywhere…)
... because I posted a shortish rant to my Facebook page and shit then promptly blew up, lol. I guess I might be outing myself here, but truly, a lot people already know my real name and stuff.
I'm bound to piss off someone with this, but I hope most of you can dig it:

Imma rant now, and rant hard:
UPDATE: I quoted a report by Capitol Weekly that stated that the Capitol Weekly / Open California Exit Poll was weighted thusly:
American Palestinians sue settlement supporters in federal court OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (PIC)--
A group of American Palestinians from the West Bank have filed a lawsuit in a Washington court against a string of US-based tycoons, companies and organizations supporting settlement construction on Palestinian land. The suit was filed in the Federal District Court of Washington DC last Monday, June 6, 2016, according to Israeli newspapers.
Once upon a time, in a land now beneath the sea [due to…] there was a mighty Prince named Boo Hoo. This prince had accumulated worldly goods, including shiny objects [such as the Nobel Peace Prize]. The Prince knew that soon he would have to leave his wonderful White Castle, even if it were only to a somewhat smaller, but still grand domicile. So at this time in moments of retroflection, Boo began to think about his legacy.
If he wanted to. Explained at Down With Tyranny:
Hedge fund "managers also receive 20 percent of gains that their funds generate over time, known as carried interest. These profits are taxed at the lower capital gains rate, thanks to a 1993 ruling by the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service.
Who are a few of the beneficiaries?
To be fair, the former Secretary of State had a pretty nice speech in Cleveland, though I take issue with some of it. More on that in a bit.
