An Open Letter to Trump Haters

Your vile hatred of Donald Trump is totally evil, for given the good that this man has done, you embrace a monstrous injustice. You call good, evil, and so condemn yourself to a living hell on Earth, because that's all you're about, really-you're about tearing everyone down to your level of depravity and mediocrity. Your ethical systems are exactly in reverse, which does not bode well for you. I also see the smirk on your face when you talk about Trump and his supporters-over 80 million people. In fact, I suspect that you despise the idea of justice, for it condemns you as a metaphysical killer.  He has been falsely charged of crimes, falsely accused of inciting an insurrection, falsely accused of fraud, attempts were made to bar him from state ballots (most famously in Colorado), and fucking shot, narrowly avoiding assassination. You cheer all of this on, against an innocent man. A man loved by literally millions of people around the world for what good he has done, and can still do. And you, you vile piece of shit, hate a man deserving of admiration and respect. Some of you are voicing concerns that Trump and his supporters will embark on a revenge fest against his haters should he win. Given the fact that they tried to silence him by bullet, could you blame him? You should worry about justice being served on you, because you are guilty of wanting an honest man dead. I don't believe Trump will do that, he'd be inclined I think to seek healing and reconciliation with these people, but they do not want healing and reconciliation. They want death, violence, and chaos. 

The verdict is in, Trump haters. You have been found guilty of moral treason, by the court of objective reality. No judge has convicted you, rather, what is the truth convicted you. You supported Trump's persecutions. You traded the truth for a lie, and now you're worried about the consequences? Good!

The Beautiful Simplicity of Christianity


Rule 2: "Treat yourself like someone you are responsible for helping."
-Jordan B. Peterson, from Twelve Rules for Life

Jesus has told us that the best way to live our lives is to love God with all our hearts, and to love others as we love ourselves. That is a challenge for me, because I am an arrogant elitist sometimes, thinking proudly that I despise the entire human race and all its' foibles, making me better than everyone in the room with me. Not because of anything superficial, rather, because that's how fucking awesome I think I am. E
ventually, I wind up boring, and alienating, everyone I meet. No wonder. Most people can spot a selfish jerk immediately.

Don't Work for Others All Your Life

Probably the thing that sucks the most about not having enough money to quit working for someone else is...working with people. Why? Because up until the point you met them at work, all of your co-workers were total strangers, complete unknowns. Even after working with them for a while, you'll still know very little about them. Of course, some work places are more close and family-like, but hey! if you don't fit into their family, you're just not in the family, and probably should look for work elsewhere. I always wondered at employers who try to "foster a welcoming environment", and also speak of their hired help as "family".

Don't Tell Me to Vote

OR ANYTHING ELSE, for that matter, but let's focus on "the vote". Commercials urging me to vote are everywhere these days. One even tried to shame me into voting by mentioning that  my friends and family could look up whether or not I voted. So let's get the record straight, OK? Voting may be a right, but it is not a duty; it is a discretionary privilege. Nothing more. And if you think you can shame people into doing what you want them to do, then you are the same kind of cheap thug who tried to shame people into wearing masks. Try logical persuasion, no, wait, that would require effort on your part.

An Apology to Alcoholics Anonymous

SO, AA was right all the time, patiently sitting back watching me foam at the mouth while I railed on and on about their inconsistencies and what-nots.

It's Way Past Time for the Democrat Party to Die


 By this time, many of you have seen the  "word salad" responses Kamala Harris has given to interviewers. She does not answer  questions, she rambles incoherently...a lot. Then there's her blatant, almost gleeful lying about everything. Her constant attacks on Trump and his supporters serves as a cover for her incompetency, a play directly taken from the Democrat Party playbook. She has reversed her position on various topics, but refuses to explain why, giving instead insulting and at times condescending word-salad answers to simple questions. Is she a serious candidate? Why is she running? What exactly are the Democrats offering America with Kamala Harris, and that pervert Walz? Satisfaction for Trump haters? Vengeance on Trump and his supporters?

For My Grandchildren

The only relevant things in the job market are competency, and the ability to get along with co-workers and customers. 

Can you do the job? Perform the task efficiently and competently? Can you overlook your co-worker's obnoxious attitude and carry on with your job? Can you respect the customer's humanity, desire sincerely to help him, and ignore their body odor? Do you refrain from being obnoxious and irritating yourself? Are you kind when people approach you with their concerns? In other words, if you can do the job well, and are not a lizard person, then you'll be successful in the job market, and in the other areas of your life. Why? Because in the job market, competency and tolerance of others are paramount.
