My birthday song, my happy world (Part 312)....

Badass Birthday

On this date, in 1883, in Prague was born Franz Kafka.

I honestly only one of his works, Metamorphosis. But I know there's been a lot more of works published. And most of them have an isolated or lonely protagonist in bizarre or incomprehisble predictaments, much like in Metamorphosis.

He passed in 1924 at the age of 40. There is a word in English: Kafkaesque. It "describes situations that are disorienting, surreal, or nightmarishly illogical, usually characterized by senseless, complex bureaucracy".

Honestly, when one has a word named after him, well, he's GOT to be a badass!

It's almost painful to watch how stupidly uninformed MAGA is. But so are their leaders. Frankly, this case should have been decided 9-0. FRANKLY, the case should have never even made it this far.

Allow me, please, to quite the Consitution of the United State Of America, from the 14th Amerndment, word for word.

"All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside"

Now there's more after that, dealing with due process for citizens, etc. But the purposes of this issue, this sentence is all that matters. All persons BORN or naturalized IN THE UNTED STATES...

BOOM. End of story. If you are BORN in the United States, you are a United States citizen.

Not knowing this, not being able to read it an undertand it easily, not only is an embarassment for the people who spout shit like this, but also and embarassment for every Republican Politican who has starved the education system of funds, or hanstrung the teachers in what they're supposed to teach.

It truly is a huge black mark against our country. One of many.

Perez Apprecation Post

Today, by the Maestro George Perez of course, we have the cover of a Justice League Of America comic. It shows Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, Firestorm, Flash and Superman battling the Tornado Tyrant and finding out his connection with their fellow member Red Tornado.

But once again, check out Perez's mastery: the details with the rocks erupting around the Flash, the circling line of the Tornado Tyrant very much indicate how he's moving, the cloud cover, the different positioning of each of the heroes. Just the work of a man at the height of his abilities.

Wednesday, July 01, 2026

So, Saturday is Independence Day. As it's on a Saturday, work is giving us Friday off. In years past when this occurred, I'd work Friday and take the holiday ON the holiday. That way, I could watch the parade through town, then visit the small 'festival' they have in town afterwards. And then go to mom's for a cookout lunch.

This year, however, I will be taking the holiday on Friday and working Saturday, since I am the only one there on Saturdays.

And why have I decided to do that this year when I haven't in years past? Well, that's because there is absolutely nothing about this country I wish to celebrate this year. The things that have happened in just the last 18 months have surely got the founding father rolling in their graves.

This is just one of many things that anger me about the orange shitgibbon: he takes the fun and the joy and the merriment out of EVERYTHING! Everything has got to be about him. And about making him money.

In his first term, there was the 100th anniversary of women gaining the right to vote. Anyone remember any sort of commemoration in August of 2020? Nope, me neither.

There was the 100th anniversary of the end of WWI, and yes he DID go to France. But when it came time for the official memorial, he didn't go. He stayed in his hotel room. It was raining after all and we can't have the orange pancake makeup running down his cheeks.

There was is the World Cup we're partially hosting. This was something even I was looking forward too when I heard it years ago. But now, we've got talented refs denied entry to the country (and the fact they're African is just totally coincidental right?) We've got another busload of black athletes being stopped and all their luggage and persons being searched along the road. We've got the Iranian team being unable to stay in the USA (which wouldn't BE an issue if we didn't have his war of choice going on). And of course we've got several country's fans openly mocking the president with their chants. Not that THAT'S really a bad thing, cause all the good people in our country openly mock the president. But I digress.

There's the coming Olympics, which Los Angeles hosts. If we even have them in 2028. But hopefully there will be one less orange shitgibbon in the world by then and maybe it won't quite as bad...but I don't hold my breath for either of those things to happen.

I remember the Bicentenntial in 1976, I was 8 years old. I remember the parades, the historical stuff on TV, New York Harbor full of all kinds of ships and boats, the things we did in school (I was in the second grade leading up to it), all the lil tidbits ofhistory that were in the newspapers and on the news shows. There was so MUCH, all about American history, and the revolution, and the presidents and how government worked and all about us as a country.

And this year, this 'celebration , we got...nothing. We got a fenced off green Reflecting Pool, a "national state fair' with temps higher than the number of people showing up, a desecrated White House and surrounding grounds, a taxpayer dollars going into the pockets of millionaire cronies with no-bid contracts.

There's not fun, or joy, or even real celebration of AMERICA in all of this. It's all about how much moeny can I stuff in my pockets while kissing the orange ass.

It's pathetic and sad. And complete shame.

Pride Prisms

Yes I'm aware Pride Month ended yesterday. But Pride lasts all year long, so they say. And I just saw this pic today, don't know when it happened. But this is the members of the Democratic Caucus in the Pennsylvania House Of Representatives and how they dressed one day in June. As you can the female members presented quite a rainbow of colors.

And it appears the male members did what they could with their ties.

My birthday song, my happy world (Part 311).....

Badass Birthday

On this date, in 1945 in Miami Florida, Debbie Harry was born.

In the late 70s/early 80s Debbie Harry, and the band she was the lead singer for Blondie, were everywhere! They ruled the charts. Here, check these songs out:

Hanging On The Telephone

Heart Of Glass

Sunday Girl

One Way Or Another

Dreaming

Call Me

Atomic

The Tide Is High

Rapture

Maria

Some of the best songs of that time period, right there.

As as the lead singer, and the face of Blondie, she was a total badass.
