Biden’s Not Responsible

Biden’s Not Responsible

The above is the Gods’ honest truth. Biden is not responsible for the fiasco of our pull-out from Afghanistan and the Taliban’s resumption of control of that region; all the Democrats who, through voting or other means, installed that senile, deranged fool as POTUS are.

It was to anyone with any knowledge of the peoples of that region of shitholes a foregone conclusion that the moment the leaders of the Taliban knew that President Trump was forced from office they would abandon any semblance of complying with the terms of the change of power and retake Afghanistan by swift and overwhelming force. It was similarly a foregone conclusion that the Taliban would immediately commit various and sundry atrocities as part of this reconquista of the Graveyard of Empires. President Trump – the man, not any policies or plans set in place through the guidance of his cabinet – was the sole force holding the Taliban in check during this changeover.

Besides, how can we hold Biden responsible for anything when it’s so blatantly obvious that he’s mentally incompetent and not really involved in the actual duties of the President?

But… Some Simple Context

Firstly, the Taliban retaking control of Afghanistan was going to happen and was going to happen now regardless of who is POTUS. President Trump’s team already negotiated that as part of the President’s pledge to the American people to end our “Forever Wars.” So, Biden can’t be held responsible for any of that.

Secondly, some amount of atrocities were always going to be part of that regime change. Under President Trump, they would have been more subdued and handled less publicly, and some might have been delayed until the end of Trump’s second term, but they were always going to happen. So, again, Biden can’t be held responsible for any of that Nobody can; that sort of thing is part of the Afghans’ culture.

Third and finally, the fiasco that has been our pullout from Kabul is neither strange nor unexpected, given how fast Afghanistan “fell” to the Taliban. Nothing within that context is particularly odd or extreme. It looks very much like the other times the US military and intelligence apparatuses have had to withdraw from a theater with some level of haste. So too, to our shame, is the lack of support and extraction for our in-theater, indigenous assets.

So no. I don’t, and I don’t believe anyone should hold Biden responsible for what is happening in Afghanistan right now any more than I would hold him responsible for drooling on- or soiling himself. One and all need to show a certain level of respect to the aged and mentally infirm. Also, as I’ve written above, I don’t see that much to hold anyone accountable for in this situation.

The only ones I feel are responsible for this debacle are those who placed Biden in office. And, even then, I can’t see where they’re responsible for anything other than the specific timing of it and the overtness of the purge going on now in Afghanistan.

Ancient Dad Jokes

Posted in Humor on August 25th, 2021

Dad Jokes, I’m pretty sure they’ve been in existence since Man developed language and there were family structures with fathers in evidence.

I have a joke about Jason and his Argonauts, but it’s kind of long

I have a joke about Hector, but the punchline’s a drag

I have a joke about Boreas, but it’s a bit long-winded

I have a Medusa joke; it’s pretty rock solid

I have a joke about Hephaestus, but it’s pretty lame

I have a joke about Procrustes, but it’s a bit of a stretch

I have a joke about Galatea, but it stats out a bit stiff

Αστεία του αρχαίου μπαμπά
(Ancient Dad Jokes)

Now sure; these are only ones from the Hellenistic period and are specific the Mediterranean region where the ancient Greek city-states dominated the culture. That’s a necessary focus because written language is needed in order to record these bits of humor… and I’m so not going to fight my way through hieratic, cuneiform, or hanzi! 😆

And, for the pendants among us, you could say that aren’t ancient dad jokes; they’re Classical dad jokes.

Not My Kink!

OMG! Not My Kink! Not My Kink! Safeword!

😆 Now that’s a delightfully unique, hilarious, and utterly twisted riff on the fairy tale trope of the dragon and the captured or sacrificed princess. And, yes, to inform the more sheltered out there, vore – short for vorarephilia – is a kink, hopefully, one firmly restricted to fantasy.

Plaga Ad Eternum

Plaga Ad Eternum
The Democrats and Chinese' plague will always be with us
COVID – Plaga Ad Eternum

Plaga Ad Eternum – plague forever or the eternal plague – that’s the best way to describe COVID-19 or, at least, the Lamestream Media’s and certain political parties’ current spin on things. For exactly so long as it serves their purses or political aspirations, this disease will be with us, not only in fact but in reporting, browbeating, and carefully crafted countermeasures.

And, like almost all exercises in Social Engineering, there’s just enough truth as born out by the facts in evidence, to sustain the Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD) and to ensure that they do not waste this crisis. After all, COVID-19 quickly sprouted Alpha, Beta, and Gamma variants, and we now have Delta spurring a resurgence of lockdowns. And, there’s already Lambda, which is touted as being immune to at least some of the vaccinations.

More importantly and far more tellingly to me is that the Coronavirus and the terror it was used to generate in so many people is now part of the zeitgeist of Western Civilization.

Corona Cuties Are The New It Girls – Sort Of

Yeah, Corona Cuties aka COVID Cuties – and substitute QTs for Cuties at need – were the new It Girls in 2020. Now, however, they’re only sort of that way, since the whole mask thing has been largely normalized. In truth, these babes and all but a handful of the ones I’ve posted previously were ones I found while searching for varieties of technically SFW prurience that had absolutely nothing to do with the pandemic.

Now, don’t misunderstand me, wilfully or otherwise; it should be obvious that I personally don’t believe that wearing PPE horrendously detracts from these hotties’ beauty. While I miss seeing the lower half of their faces, especially their lips, it’s always been a woman’s eyes that drew me in the most.

That being said, a minority of these women and of the mask-wearing women I’ve previously post have been depicted in group or public settings. Most have been shown alone and in indoor, isolated settings. Hence, this isn’t just wearing a mask; it’s deliberately wearing one for the purpose of adding to- and shifting the norm of eroticism.

And that, Ladies, Gentlemen, and any others who might be reading this, is a significant sign of an even more significant problem within our country. It’s a sign that the coronavirus and the abject fear of it has already become all to entrenched in the hearts and minds of far too many people within our borders. That makes it all to easy for certain sorts of politicians to strip liberties aways in the name of security and the “general welfare” of the populace.

Yes, sadly, the Coronavirus in all its permutations is a Plaga Ad Eternum, as will likely be much of the fear of it and the profiteering off of it the media and certain politicians will engage in.

The Generation Gap

The Generation Gap
The Generation Gap

I can’t say that America is suffering from and through its worst generation gap. That would, IMHO, be the cap in outlook, beliefs, and patriotism between the Silent Generation and the Baby Boomers (Hippies). I can say, however, that the gap between the Millennials (Gen Y) and a significant subset of Generation Z and all former generations of Americans is both disgusting and profound.

But yeah! Greta Thunberg’s generation is going to start a revolution? Not very likely unless it can function and make an impact via social media and #Hashtaggery alone. :LOL:
