Let Them Eat Soy
I think that's a quote from Marie Antoinette... but I could be mistaken.
In the face of record fuel prices and surging costs for food the enlightened Progressive Urban Socialists of California are going to save us from our deplorable selves (yet again).
California assembly members Adrin Nazarian (D-Van Nuys) and Alex Lee (D-San Jose), who authored Assembly Bill 2764, said putting a halt to commercial animal feeding operations and slaughterhouses would be a step forward in preventing inhumane cruelty on animals. "bold and decisive legislation would stop the industry in its tracks and reverse it to create a plant based sustainable and humane food system in California that could lead the rest of the world."
So, stop worrying about the rising cost of beef, chicken and pork since they're going to ban it all anyway. You will eat soy and you WILL be happy.
I see one big problem with their plan... If you legalize marijuana and ban beef, how will people make nachos when they get the munchies?
I envision a future where violent Mexican Meat Cartels smuggle carnitas and fajitas across the border and rich guys cruise the streets of East LA trying to score a dime-bag of sirloin on a Friday night. Border Patrol will be beefed up (gosh I love my puns) with meat-sniffing dogs. A year in prison for Possession of Chicken With Intent to Consume. YAY!!

The Gas Price Time Machine
Remember "Hot Tub Time Machine" ? You get into a steaming, bubbling hot tub and travel thru time. IT COULD HAPPEN.
Gasoline has been going up since Biden took office and has now hit the highest price ever in history. This week, Nancy and Joe both stated that the increases are related to the war in Ukraine.
OMG... that means the war in Ukraine traveled back in time 14 months to cause our gasoline prices to double before the war even started! Our fundamental understanding of physics and causality has been shaken to its very roots!
I've studied a good bit of physics over the years and time travel can only be attributed to a black hole.... a massive black hole in our nation's LEADERSHIP.
To Absurdity and Beyond
Remember Buzz Lightyear "To Infinity and Beyond" ? Remember when NASA was devoted to the quest for knowledge and the spirit of exploration?
Well the new NASA is "fully committed to supporting every employee's right to be addressed by their correct name and pronouns.... so that employees can share their gender identities and show allyship to the LGBTQIA+ community."
Hey, I have no objection to people referring to theyselves as hims. xers, thems or furries. But it upsets me when an organization allows diversity to become a diversion from their core mission. Hey NASA, Get Your Ass To Mars.
The Best President...
... of the 20th Century. Yeah, yeah, I know y'all love Brandon and think he IS the greatest... but he is so 21st Century. It's time for a little nostalgia.
- Actually, many of y'all are too young to remember the 20th, but it was so AWESOME... we had: WWI, WWII, the Korean War, The Vietnam War, cities burning with racial unrest, gasoline rationing, the Jimmy Carter 15% inflation with massive unemployment, and More, MORE, MORE!
And then there was Ronald Reagan. Progressives hated him because we had a resurgent economy, the collapse of the Soviet Union, reunification of Germany and the end of the Cold War. How could an outsider who once starred in a movie with a chimp accomplish more than any Democrat in 50 years??? OUTRAGEOUS!!

Watch... it will make you smile. Sorry.. there was no HD back then... deal with the blurry cam (as an aside, this why us old people don't know how bad our vision is)..
The Ammo Panic Is Back
In spite of already absurd prices, ammunition sales have surged and prices are going up faster than diesel.
Get a grip people... the war in Ukraine won't last forever and Biden already banned Russian ammo a couple of months ago.. DON'T PANIC.
