I didn’t hear “Baby It’s Cold Outside” once this season. For the past few years, it has been discussed and argued about, but there were always a few rebels who would play it on the radio. Now I think it has been quietly banned because it’s so unsafe and rape-y.

There is a distinct odor of the 1930’s in the air.
It’s impossible to see the celebrations of the October 7 massacres without thinking of the ships full of Jewish refugees turned away in New York by Roosevelt and sent back to Europe, to their deaths.
When I see the quarantine camps and the COVID lockdowns, and the demonization of healthy citizens who have done nothing wrong, my mind wanders back to the Japanese-American citizens rounded up for internment camps.
And when confused children are seduced into the transgender industry to be sexually mutilated through drugs or surgery, often with the enthusiastic participation of their parents, how can we not be reminded of the eugenics movement sterilizing tens of thousands of “inferior” people?

Southwest Airlines has announced its new “person of size” policy, which gives free seats to people who need more space because their butt can’t fit in the one seat they purchased. One way they can take advantage of the policy is to purchase two adjoining seats, fly to wherever, and then demand a refund of half their fare.
Here’s my question. What if I merely identify as a “person of size” but weigh 160 pounds? Can I too pay for one seat and get two? What if I am fat only in my mind? What if I’m a fathead?

COVID trivia: though the virus is not nearly as dangerous as it once was, there are still elderly people with serious illnesses for whom COVID can be life-threatening. Some doctors prescribe nicotine pills for these patients.
COVID enters the body through “receptors,” which are present on human cells. The virus can bind with certain receptors and thus infect the person. One type of receptor that the COVID virus typically uses is the ACE2 receptor, but there are others.
For tobacco users, the ACLR receptor is how nicotine gets into the body. These receptors can also accept COVID virus, but not at the same time. This is why smokers tend to get fewer COVID infections and have fewer serious or deadly outcomes. The advantage for smokers was apparent from the beginning of the COVID outbreak.
This is also why nicotine pills are being used (experimentally) as a treatment for COVID in at-risk patients. The nicotine occupies the ACLR receptors, leaving fewer opportunities for COVID to enter the body.

A few months ago, I blogged my theories on the Democratic race for the presidential nomination in 2024. To save you the trouble of reading it, my prediction was that Michelle Obama would be presented as the new figurehead President so that Barack could continue in his role as the national political leader. He would continue to govern as he has under Biden’s four years, though with Michelle as the front man. The pretense that someone other than Barack was president could thus be abandoned. While there are people now who believe Biden is a real president who makes policy, nobody would believe Michelle was anything other than a stand-in. Michelle in the Oval Office would simplify matters.
There is still no question Biden will be replaced. He’s like that 1993 Toyota that you love, that is full of memories, but is now beyond fixing. Are you really going to put a third carburetor in the damn thing. No. You’re going to ditch that Tercel.
And I’m not backing off my original prediction since Michelle remains the ideal choice for the Obama machine that rules America. But Kamala also has a possible path to the top job.
Nobody (or almost nobody) wants her there, and nobody likes her very much, but they chose her as VP partly to get Joe past the finish line, and now they are stuck with her. She’s young and healthy, and they can’t just kick her out of national politics without some serious howling from the DEI crowd. I mean, did she somehow STOP being a little bit black and a little bit Asian? And doesn’t she still own a vagina?
So if they can’t easily dump her, the question becomes how to use her. Would she accept a secondary role and take orders from Barack? She might. Gavin Newsom would not---if he were made president, he would insist on being the boss---but Kamala might take the deal. Kamala might realize the ONLY way for her to become president is to accept the state-dinner/ice-cream-cone role that Biden now enjoys. It could work, and it would free Michelle Obama to continue hanging out with her girlfriends on Ibiza and Martha’s Vineyard.

I understand it is typical for geezers like me to rail against today’s ignorant and misbegotten young folks. In my defense I can only say that I don’t believe I have ever done that.
Until now.
When I see polls indicating that HALF of Americans aged 18-34 believe the massacres of Israelis on October 7 were justified, or blame the Jews for the killings, I am worried. When I see tens of thousands of youthful Jew-haters filling the streets around the world violently demonstrating and chanting for the annihilation of Jews, I dread what the future may bring.
I knew that no real history was being taught to high school and college students, and I knew the group-identity-based indoctrination was taking place, but I had no idea how successful it was, or how many young people were affected, or how thoroughly the Left had purged any consideration of good and evil from the minds of the young.
