Usually, when I sit down to write a blog entry, the blog has already written itself in my mind. When I am exercising or riding in the car or just going about my day to day activities, an idea pops into my head and I work out the flow before I even sit down to write.
But, not this time! I have nothing.... maybe it is because of all of the disgusting crap in the news or my general boredom with the political and social climate in our world or the fall of American democracy or all of the above.
I mean, I could write about the orange buffoon and his clearly demented state and the fact that this country is supporting a convicted felon who is also a pedophile. I could write about all of the false distractions he is creating by making accusations against Obama, Biden, Clinton and others. Or, his attempts to get involved in stupid things like the names of sports teams and how to pay college athletes and what comedians he can get fired. Any distraction from the Epstein files is fair game by this POS. But the fat asshole is too easy of a target and not worthy of too many words.
I could write about the rise of antisemitism, mysoginy and racism in this country. According to the MAGA crowd, if you are not a white christian man, then you are a second class person...the idea of equal rights, especially if you are someone with a slightly darker skin is foreign to this administration. Equal protection under the law just doesn't exist. The horrors of ICE raids, Alligator Alcatraz, deportations without due cause is disgusting and reminiscent of 1930's Germany. And the antisemitism that has become the norm in many parts of this country is frightening - I read today of 2 communities that have barred Jews, Blacks and Hispanics, with more being built in this country. That is in addition to the growth of the neo-nazi movement, and other organizations like the Goyim Defense League, The Aryan Brotherhood and others. But hate is a disease and I really don't want to write about hate.
I could write about RFK, Jr. and what he is doing to make Americans less healthy. His anti-vax movement is spreading and other dumb ideas is a great example of what happens when totally unqualified people are put in to important positions of responsibility. Pam Bondi, Pete Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard, Kristi Noem and most of the cabinet -all unqualified and dangerous. Pam Bondi is so crooked, the Florida Bar is considering disbarring her while she is serving as the Attorney General. And Gabbard has been proven to be a Russian asset. But, I really don't want to write about lackeys either.
I could write about the Israel-Palestine-Iran war and how f***ed up the whole situation is. A war started by Iranian proxies against Israel that has escalated into a humanitarian crisis. Although I fully support Israel, tRump's friend Netanyahu is as big a criminal as tRump and should be thrown out of office so that progress can be made. Or I could write about the horrific war in Ukraine and the lack of support that tRump is giving Ukraine because of his admiration of Putin.
I don't want to write about any of those subjects..nor America's standing in the World...how we elected a convicted felon who is doing everything he can to make this an autocracy...how Project 2025 was the goal all along....how we are being ruled by the Heritage Foundation and the multi-billionaires...how the Big Bullshit Bill hurts most Americans, kills healthcare for those that need it the most and balloons the deficit....how members of Congress are just a bunch of frightened babies who have totally shirked their duties as an equal branch of government...or how members of the Supreme Court have been totally compromised and have forgotten how to rule according to The Constitution and precedent.
I want to write positive stories, uplifting thoughts and new ideas....and that's what I endeavor to do going forward. (But, I am sure an opinion piece or 2 will slip in there somewhere!)
And The Journey continues......
Roy, I see you found nothing to write about. Love it!
