STRANGE DAYS

Reading down the linked list of headlines on a news aggregator is like reading apocalyptic science fiction. The first one to get my attention is several religious blurts in a row about “The End Days” and how “The Signs Are Here”. There’s a lot of talk about “The Rapture” on these websites, how all the true believers will soon float upwards like helium balloons, into the sky. I hope they wear bright clothing so they look pretty, like little sky flowers.

America has just invaded America. The Mexican Sinaloa drug cartel took over a 170-acre American island in the middle of the Rio Grande River and ringed it with sniper nests, and a large force of Texas Rangers and state troopers were preparing yesterday morning to drive them out and have now done so without a fight. They ran back to Mexico. Now the bulldozers are there wiping the land clean and will be followed by lots of razor wire and regular patrols.

Since the cartels now run Mexico, isn’t it time we went to war with them? Unless we gave all our guns and bullets to Ukraine, of course.

Vlad Putin just announced that he did not start a war in Ukraine, “What war?”, and that he is willing to talk peace and is withdrawing some of his forces while massing more troops on the border and trains are moving tanks into Crimea. I guess he thinks nobody notices that he’s lying. Someone please give that man an enema, he’s full of shit.

There’s a video of Joe Biden kicking his dog, the same one that bit a couple of Secret Service agents in the White House, some photos of a rotting howler monkey corpse that we’re told is a Chupacabra Goat Sucker Monster, and Britney Spears is hiding out on a French Polynesian island after cutting herself doing a really moronic video of herself dancing with some big sharp knives.

And that’s just the little stuff. The weekend awaits.
