A little night reading…

Where would we be without shared library books. I love that we can borrow a book from another library. This one is from Colorado. This is my fourth book of the month from another library system.

You could boil this down to “cranky liberal shakes fist at over-the-line progressives.” There is a bit more nuance than that, but Bowles often pulls no punches when she looks at everything from autonomous zones and defunding the police to the evolution and expansion of queer culture.

An interesting (and frustrating) book about how the far left in this country has lost their God damn minds. #2024Book22

(Continued)...Schools in Evanston, Illinois, outside Chicago, were offering racially segregated high school math and writing classes, and it was no longer a big or shocking story. It's voluntary, they say, so it's legal. There are a thousand tiny changes we've just grown accustomed to.

San Francisco

What San Francisco has turned into

(Because the word "women" has become offensive to the woke)

😲😲😲😲😲

...A small neighborhood watch group formed, but it quickly fell apart after its first and only meeting. The watch group is "white supremacy," and protestors crashed it to criticize them for involving the police.

This is referring to defunding the police. Meanwhile, Congresswoman Cori Bush has pushed hard to defund the police, but has spent $70,000 on private security over just a few months.

Atlanta city councilman Antonio Brown, who voted to defund the police in 2020, got his car stolen by mid-2021. 🤣🤣🤣

I've been white for 45 years, and I feel fine...oh wait. I have a bit of a headache...I'm dizzy....and my balls hurt. Oh...hold on...now I'm fine. Phew! That was close!

? In case you're wondering what the "traits of whiteness" are, they include punctuality, order, urgency, the written word, and perfectionism.

So, now, not only is being white a cardinal sin, but being "almost white" is a problem, too. Good job, Wokesters! I'm sure that this is the "progress" you've all been looking for.

And it's a good thing that Pepe Le Pew was cut from Space Jam. I remember how, when I was a child, I would watch Pepe Le Pew cartoons, and then I would do nothing but commit rape for the rest of the day. In fact, if you look at guys like Harvey Weinstein, Bill Cosby, and Donald Trump, there's a 99% chance that they had probably been watching Pepe Le Pew cartoons shortly before committing their rapes.

Progress itself became suspect. When the COVID vaccine meant we could be unmasked, there was the Washington Post with the piece: "Masks are off--which means men will start telling women to 'Smile!' again."

Don't even think about using the word "woman." Johns Hopkins University put out a language guide that defines "lesbian" as "a non-man attracted to non-men."
