Muslims or Guns?

Of course, now half the country will moan, “Evil Muslims!” and the other half will wail, “Evil guns!” And nobody will have a minute to spare for a discussion of violence against women because it’s never the right time to talk about it.

The Orlando terrorist, by the way, reportedly turned to terror after he saw two men kissing. A man who demeans himself by voluntarily accepting the “lowly” female status was so intolerable for this vicious animal to observe that he blew up in an even greater violent rage.

And now, after this brief interlude, please proceed to the discussion of Muslims / guns as suits your fancy. I already saw somebody report that the killer had “a Muslim name”, whatever that even means. That same person (who probably would never refer to himself as having “a Christian name”) then easily segued into a condemnation of guns, making a bid for both halves of the national audience. That’s true mastery, folks.

Women First

Of course, there is some very typical and obvious woman-hatred in the lives of all of these terrorists. It’s when pummeling on some God-forsaken broad becomes too boring that these freaks of nature begin shooting into crowds.

Note how the ex-wife is still defending the terrorist even after his death.

Anti-gay Terror

Oh God, a horrible act of terror in Orlando. I just found out and I’m horrified. I don’t get why it’s referred to as a mass murder in all the media. As if gay people did not deserve to be recognized as a group, and a group that is often targeted for persecution at that.

Microsoft Is Disgusting

Does anybody have an explanation why Microsoft is so eager to make people download Windows 10 that it employs such disgusting, low tricks one hasn’t seen since the 1990s?

Decrepit

I started using the vocabulary building function on my new Kindle and discovered, to my great dismay, that it takes me 10 times longer to learn new words than it did back in my 20ies. This is a really good vocabulary builder that always puts the new words in context, but my brain still struggles enormously to retain them. And then fails.

It used to be enough for me to look at a list of words for 20 seconds and remember them forever and now I struggle and struggle. It’s good I already have all the degrees I need.

Argentina Snubs Putin

Argentina’s government will finally stop sponsoring the propagandist TV channel Russia Today. From now on, RT will be accessible by subscription but the government will no longer provide it to viewers for free.

I’m so glad that the stupid Cristina Fernandez Kirchner is finally gone and the government of Argentina no longer bends over backwards to please Putin.

Saying Good-bye

I finally removed the Bernie sticker from my car’s bumper. I couldn’t throw it away for sentimental reasons, so I placed it inside on the dashboard.

I realized that if he’d ran against anybody but Hillary, I would have totally supported Bernie. Even though I insist that his college plan is bizarre. But since it’s Hillary, I didn’t have a choice.

Onesies

What I don’t get is the existence of such an insane number of short-sleeved onesies. When is a baby supposed to wear all of them? In winter it’s too cold and in summer it’s way too cold because of the AC. We just end up rotating the same few long-sleeved ones in the end.

Numbers

I thought N would like the show Numbers because one of the characters is a mathematician but he hated it for that very reason. He doesn’t like the sacred name of mathematics to be taken in vain.

Hope for Peru

The disgusting daughter of the disgusting Fujimori conceded defeat in the presidential election in Peru. I know nothing about her opponent but I’m glad that, at least, she’s been defeated. Maybe there is hope for Latin America, after all.
