2020 in Review

   2020 is over. Overall it's been a shit year. My financial situation hasn't been the greatest. The $600 stimulus check helped alleviate my financial woes somewhat. I had more health issues this year. As reported earlier, my gall bladder was removed in mid July. The hip replacement surgery that was to have happened Dec. 21st. was cancelled because the surgeon had some kind of emergency. It's been rescheduled for Feb. 8th. I want to get this done. I'm tired of waiting.

  There was no Gen Con or Ren Faire in 2020 because of the virus. Everything pretty much ground to a halt because of the virus. On the plus side, the election is over and Trump lost big time and the Democrats will control the House, Senate and the Presidency. Some measure of sanity has been restored. But the MAGA maggots still exist and will still cause trouble.

  I'm putting in 40 hours/week at work. My check covering Christmas was quite nice. I'm hoping the New Year's check is nice as well. The $2,000 stimulus checks are closer to becoming a reality now that the Democrats are in control. I could use $2,000 right now.

  The House is currently listening to Representatives regarding the objection to the Pennsylvania Electoral College vote. Now the House is voting regarding the objection. So far, all the Democrats have voted against the objection while most Republicans, at this point, have voted for it. The objection was just voted down by the House. The last states are now being certified. Certification is done. It's official. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are President elect and Vice President elect.

Seditious Contards

   Even after losing the vast majority of his election fraud lawsuits, Dipshit Donnie is still trying to overturn the 2020 election. The Electoral College certified Biden's win on Dec. 14th putting another nail in the Toxic Turdball's coffin. Sadly, all this has done is send Trump into yet another tweet storm and Trump supporters have been holding violent protests with people like Alex Jones stating that Biden will be removed from office "one way or the other". Remember, this is the motherfucker that said that the Sandy Hook massacre was a hoax which lend to some of the survivors receiving death threats from Jones's fans. Why this asshole hasn't been arrested for sedition is beyond me. The same could be said for the 106 House Republicans that tried to negate the votes cast in Michigan, Georgia, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Here's the video.


  

These GOP cocksuckers are trying their best to undermine our democracy. They should be removed from office in accordance to section 3 of the 14th Amendment for their disloyalty. Here's another video showing the Neo Nazi Proud Boys committing acts of violence at pro Trump rallies.
These seditious inbred syphilitic goat fuckers need to be rounded up and locked up. I hope the various law enforcement agencies find a way to break them up and destroy their influence. They need to suffer for their crimes.

Right Wing Evangelical Contards

   For some time now, conservatives have used the term libtard, a portmanteau of the words liberal and retard, to denigrate those on the Left. To the best of my knowledge, the opposite term, contard, has never been used or used extremely infrequently. We liberals need to use this term more often. Especially now given the shit some of these contards are trying to pull.

  That brings us to the subject of this post, the right wing evangelical contard. Ever since Biden and Harris have been declared the winners of this year's election, they've been losing their collective minds. They've been praying for God to strike down those people conspiring against Trump. They can't believe that the majority of the people don't regard Trump as the second coming of Christ. Let's look at a few of these pricks. First up, Kenneth Copeland.



As you can clearly see here, Hyena Boy has a problem with reality. This religious con man thinks that he and his followers can just ignore what just happened. The joke's on you, pal. Whether you like it or not, Trump lost.
  Next up, we have Trump's spiritual advisor, Paula White. This cunt goes mental and starts ranting some cult like chant occasionally interspersed with gibberish calling upon angels and whatnot to strike down Trump's enemies.



  This member of the right wing lunatic fringe comes across as a female Jim Jones and we all know how well things went at Jonestown. Let's take a more detailed look at on stage mental meltdown.



  She acts like she has divine forces at her beck and call. She arrogantly believes that wherever she walks is holy ground. She's clearly delusional and/or a charlatan. And the scary part is people believe her and send her money.
  Third on the list is Michele Bachmann. This religious zealot used a member of the House of Representatives. How a woman this off the deep end got elected is beyond me. She's posted a cult like rant similar to Paula White calling upon God to smash the 'jar of delusion' effecting America. I'd be careful about that if I were her. God may interpret 'jar of delusion' as meaning the skull containing your brain and smash that. Here's the video.

  Copeland and White are little more than con artists. The reason they love Trump so much is that he caters to their needs. They get their followers to believe that Trump is the Chosen of God so they'll vote for him and he grants them influence in the federal government. They'll try to pass laws in the name of 'religious freedom' that basically give evangelicals the power to shove their religious views down everyone else's throats. They want to be able to get political from the pulpit without sacrificing their tax exempt status. They don't give a shit about anybody else not even their own followers. Bachmann, on the other hand, is little more than a religious dupe. She's far too stupid to realize that people like Copeland and White are just power hungry, money grubbing grifters. She's like the blind little sheeples following these grifters. That's what makes her, and people like her, dangerous. They believe the verbal diarrhea being spewed by the grifters. They believe it with all their heart and soul. And some of them may decide to act on said beliefs. What violence will come from that? 
  This last video includes some footage from the previous videos as well as footage of other preachers going batshit crazy over Trump's loss. While it's amusing to watch their stupidity, just remember that there are a lot of these people in America and they're just stupid enough to tear this nation apart.

Biden & Harris For The Win

   After 4 VERY long years, the comedy of errors that was the Trump administration is ending. Joe Biden And Kamala Harris have been officially declared the winners of the 2020 election. Of course Trump, being the narcissistic fuckwad that he is, refuses to concede. He's claiming, sans proof, that he won but was cheated of his rightful victory by a deep state conspiracy consisting of the Democrats, Big Tech and the left wing media. Typical.

  He's filed lawsuits in those states where he lost by small margin of votes. During the vote counting process, Trump supporters were chanting for poll workers to "Stop the count." in those areas where Trump was winning but Biden was gaining and "Count the votes." where Biden had the lead but Trump was gaining. Here's a video of one such protest.



  The MAGA maggots that told us in 2016 to suck it up and accept the fact that their guy won are now whining like the pathetic little snowflakes they are because the pile of fermented shit they've been huffing for the past 4 years lost. My advice to them is put on your big boy/girl pants and suck it up.
  The President and Vice President elect have a long road ahead of them. Which party will control the Senate is still up for grabs. The Democrats need 3 more seats in order to gain control. Right now, it looks like the Democrats will retain control of the House. With both Lindsey Graham and Mitch McConnel being reelected, you know they're going to take every opportunity to undermine the new administration. Biden had to deal with this for 8 years when he served as Obama's Vice President. The other question is how many Republicans will continue to lick the shit out of Trump's fat, orange ass now that he's lost? Maybe they're hoping all the lawsuits will end up in the Supreme Court and the conservative majority will dump the Presidency back into Trump's tiny little hands. That could be why they rammed through Amy Coney Barrett before the election despite the fact that they ignored Obama's nomination of Merrick Garland back in 2016.
  Trump has made it clear that he doesn't accept the results of the election and he refuses the commit to a peaceful transfer of power. The MAGA maggots may decide to try to block his removal from office. This could get ugly.

Election Day

   Today is finally Election Day and, hopefully, a certain narcissistic, xenophobic, misogynistic moronic fuckwad of a walking pile of shit to EVER hold the office of President will be kicked out of office. One can only hope. Four more years of this asshole will, in all likelihood, mean four more years of the coronavirus. He's done virtually nothing to stop its spread and his misinformation, along with that of the Fox Propaganda Network, has led to 236,997 deaths in the USA as of this blog post according to ncov2019.live. We need people in our government that listen to the experts and take swift and certain action not some doddering idiot that thinks he knows better than everyone else.

  While the current polls are predicting Biden and Harris will win, I'm not celebrating just yet. Our wannabe dictator for life has been trying to undermine this election for now. He's been undermining the USPS in an attempt to stop mail in voting. He's also claimed that absentee ballots are subject to ballad fraud. Some articles state that ballot fraud is rare while this article claims voter fraud is more the rule than the exception. It should be noted that, despite Trump's claims, voter fraud isn't widespread in the US.

  Should Trump lose, even if it's by a landslide, I doubt he'll go quietly. He'll whine, bitch, piss and moan about how unfair the system was to him. He'll call upon his sycophantic followers to rise up in possibly violent protests against his removal from office. He'll try every trick in the book to hold on to the Presidency. He may have to be forcibly removed.

  My Mom, Dad and I cast our votes early. We requested absentee ballots and filled them out according to the procedure detailed on the instruction sheet. Instead of dropping them in the mail, the ballots were driven over to the proper location and turned in personally. That way we didn't risk them being lost or delayed in the mail system.

  I truly want Trump to lose. I want him to get his ass stomped into a mud hole so badly that he'll never be able to sit down again. Trump has said that he might leave the US if he loses. Oh please, let that be so. His loss could bring a legal reckoning against him for some of the shit he's pulled. Right now, being President has protected him from those legal woes. Let's hope that ends too.

Hip Surgery Scheduled

   The Trulicity and metformin, along with the other medications, has lowered my a1c to 6.4. As a result, my hip replacement surgery has been scheduled for Dec. 21st. I was given a chlorhexidine gluconate soap to be used the day before and the morning of the operation. I'm expected to be off for 6 weeks after the surgery. MetLife is going to be sending me the FMLA forms and I've contacted UFCW 1473 to see if there are any forms I need from them. When I had my colectomy, I had to get a form from the union in addition to the other forms I required. I believe this is so I get paid while I'm on leave.

  My 59th birthday is coming up. I ordered the Great Old Ones pack 2 for Cthulhu Wars. It includes Atlach-Nacha, BokrugFather Dagon and Ghatanothoa. I'm expecting it later today. My orders with The Game Stewards has been delayed until Feb. 2021. The Debunked game arrived a while back. The posters will be mailed separately. The Hexacube Kickstarter has had trouble finding a dice manufacturer that can make the dice correctly and the Go Dice Kickstarter has been delayed due to the pandemic.

  Satursgiving has been cancelled due to the pandemic. This sucks. I haven't gamed since last year's Gen Con and was looking forward to at least seeing my friends again. It's likely that the New Year's Eve get together at Glenn's will be cancelled as well. 2020 has been fucking boring as shit.

  The election's coming up Nov. 3rd. Mom, Dad and I already voted via absentee ballots. Hopefully, Trump and his GOP sycophants will have their collective asses bounced out of office. Of course, the orange skinned dipshit has indicated that if he loses the election, he won't leave office peacefully. If this is the case, I hope the military escorts his sorry bloated orange ass out of the White House at gunpoint.

November musings

  In 2016, my birthday and Election Day were the same day. It started out with Mom, Dad and me going to the polls to vote. I wish I could say that things turned out well, election wise, but that didn't happen. In a show of unprecedented stupidity, we elected Trump to be the next president. This man insulted Mexicans, Muslims, women, the disabled etc. and was rewarded with the highest office in the land. He offered to pay the legal fees of any supporter that attacked people protesting him and selected as his running mate the man responsible for SB 101. For my take on SB 101, look here. His candidacy was endorsed by both the KKK and the NeoNazis. This is the man that's going to be our next president. And to make matters worse, after running what had to be the most divisive campaign in history, Trump has the unmitigated gall to ask everyone to unite with him. But enough of this fucktard.
  Election Day afternoon was spent at Red Lobster indulging in an Ultimate Feast. This dish consists of breaded shrimp, shrimp scampi, crab legs, rice pilaf and a lobster tail. Add to that some mashed potatoes and a warm apple crostada and you have one incredible meal. My birthday movie this year was the latest Marvel movie Dr. Strange. I'm not going to go into detail about the movie because I have no wish to spoil it for anyone that hasn't seen it yet. I do highly recommend seeing this movie though. The Marvel movies and tv shows form an integrated universe where events in one movie or tv episode have ripple effects that turn up in other movies and tv episodes.
  November 29th would've been my brother Scott's 56th birthday. It's hard to believe he's been gone 6 years. I still mourn your loss and wish you were here with us.
