FARCE

You think the 2016 Prez election can't possibly top itself with any further outlandish stupidity and contentious, contemptuous, arrogant behavior, yet it does, seemingly daily. If this crap hadn't already been going on for 2 long years I'd say let's start over, cuz the whole thing has become a mean-spirited, head-scratching and insulting sham of a mockery like no election before it (in my memory). I also long for the days when the newsfeed here was about more then just he said she said Armchair Politicizing. What has anyone achieved? I mean is anybody really listening to anybody else? Where's Triumph the insult comic dog when we need him to bitingly sum up this farce?

Ailes steps down

Roger Ailes just stepped down... Here's the former industry heavyweight (depicted by Robert Grossman for the NY Observer in 2006) bouncing on Rupert Murdoch's knee in those carefree GOP days of your and war, the mid '00's.

Happy Days are here again.

Chachi grew up to be a real dimwitted douchebag, huh? Who's the next irrelevant F list actor/speaker to be trotted out by the TeaOP? The Big Ragoo, Tootie from Facts of Life or Gopher, the yeoman pervert on The Love Boat?

What is there left to say (after the latest cop killings and killing of cops and...)? Society is crumbling at an exponential rate.

It's all connected: the wealth gap, non-action, reliance on authority, guns, racism and eased stupidity have created a whirl-cesspool of mayhem, distrust, desperation and anger. I don't see an end to this sadly, I see it increasing, with more people poor and on the streets, and more innocent people dead. These aren't isolated incidents, but the whole can't wrap their collective heads around that. $trings are being pulled that will continue to be pulled even though it's high time plugs are on so many obviously hurtful policies.

Yes, there've been "worse" times, yet society has not learned from them. People don't work together anymore, they work for corporations, and it's every man/woman for themselves. T's hard to not think that this country is headed into uncharted territory that doesn't look promising. I'm an actor, I hold a mirror up to society and try to make people laugh or think. I've posted about change on here and my blog endlessly too, but thoughts like this seem like platitudes to me now when as a society we cannot right the most obvious and basic wrongs that we repeat over and over and only make worse. People are being driven to poverty and some madness by frustration from injustice, and it's hard not to believe that that's the plan by the money lords on high: survival of the fittest and eventual population thinning.
