A tyrant must put on the appearance of uncommon devotion to religion. Subjects are less apprehensive of illegal treatment from a ruler whom they consider god-fearing and pious. On the other hand, they do less easily move against him, believing that he has the gods on his side.
— Aristotle

It’s time for another Bikini Interlude. This one has a tiny point to make, unlike the majority of this ongoing series. That point is that bikinis are perfectly OK for indoorwear as well. Indeed, wearing your bikini inside may most pleasantly preclude you going anywhere for a while. 😉
ROFLMAO Yessiree, Now I’m a believer! Of course, I’m also rather unconcerned and apathetic. After all, I’m not a homosexual; I don’t attend drunken and drug-fueled sex parties; I don’t any more come into contact with African monkeys or those who handle them; and I don’t have sex or close contact with Africans or people who do any longer.
Remember when that jabbering Kenyan, Obama described half or more of Americans as bitterly clinging to our God and our guns? Well, that was then and this is now. And now, there’s a whole new breed of bitter clingers, ones who are truly deplorable in many, if not all, ways.
These days it’s the Left – specifically, the titularly White Millennials and Gen Zers – who are bitterly clinging to COVID-19 and the Democrat politicians resultant power grab and power trip.
They’re Clinging To Masks Like Safety Blankets
And boy, do they cling to their masks. Even with their own politicians reducing the requirement for mask wearing to suggestions in most places, the Leftists are still wearing them and still vilifying those who are “abiding by what the CDC and those politicians set forth.”
Those masks aren’t just virtual signalling anymore for those sorts. It’s now an identification badge and ingrained in their subculture.
But… As one can see above, that’s not all bad. There are times when one could just think of it as a kink and our new niqabis do look fine… well, what you can see of them. 😉
They’re Clinging To Their Homes Like Hikikomori
And, even more so than their masks, they’re clinging to their homes like Japan’s Hikikomori. They do not want to leave their domicile. They certainly don’t want to go to an office and work like most people used to, though that might have more to do with their sense of entitlement and confusion about capitalism and their places within it than anything else. Like Climate Change and Equity – previously termed Equality – the pandemic may for the majority of them just be another excuse for moving forward with their agenda.
But… I like my new businesswear, and I for damn sure think any and all of the dress shirts I bought for wear to the office look a lot better and serve a higher purpose now than they ever did then. 😆

So, in a case of irony gone wild, we have a whole new crop and version of bitter clingers in 2022, and they bear very little resemblance to the 100s of millions of Americans Obama previously declaimed as being such. But, at least we can be thankful that they do carry with them some varieties of secondary and/or tangential benefits for us all.
Sex and sexuality are, for the most part, subjects best taught to children at home by their parents. And that is a large part of why Liberals keep trying to force it into K-12 curricula.
I’ve described Biden recently, but what the old dodderer is shouldn’t be a shock to anyone. This is what happens when you order a President through the mail. What shows up rarely looks or is as good as what it looked like online or in the catalog, even more so when it turns out it’s just a piece of Chinese-made crap.
