I was sort of kinda planning to keep the whole Trump thing out of my blog but I find it too aggravating that people are arguing on social media about what instead of why re the Mobster-in-Chief's announcement that he is pulling US troops from Syria (where I didn't think the US was particularly invested anyway, but whatever).
But the lectures from our Brocialist Betters on social media about the resigning US defence secretary, Jim Mattis, being a Mad Dog o' War aren't helping me keep the whole Trump thing out of my blog as much as they may think, if they think of me and My Blog! My Blog! at all.
Alas, knee hit, knee jerk - whether they do or not, and I guess they don't since they've mostly unfriended me elsewhere and have no idea I'm pontificating here.
So yes, we know, Brocialist Betters, we know. Oh how we know how right you are about the imperialist United States. Please, add another gold star to your Portfolio of Rightness.
Wait, what? The US has a history of raining death and destruction upon countries halfway across the world (from it - home to the dead and destroyed) and then deciding too many American lives have been sacrificed in the effort and pulling out, leaving any living "allies" it may have left among the dead and destroyed to be slaughtered by whoever the new enemy is now?
Do tell, Brocialist Betters, do tell.
But wait, hang tight there for a second. I just need to settle this listening expression on my face while I make a grocery list in my head.
There. Okay. You were saying?
Anise seed for my shortbread cookies. Dammit, where the hell can I get some anise seed? I've been to three grocery stores already (on foot, too, so you can imagine my desperation!) and NO ANISE SEED!
