So…wearing a short with a comedic take on why it’s not alright to burn things down that don’t belong to you because a criminal got caught is an international crime but it’s alright to use explosives to indiscriminately kill everything in a lake ??? rigghhhtttttt,..got it.
Like jesus fucking christ, I cannot get over this comment.
We start with making the Musky Lives Matter shirt MORE racist than it is (it’s racist because it’s making light of the state killing black people because of a fish joke — it’s not actually intended as a commentary, and your “commentary” is a weird, fucked up interpretation of BLM).
Then you make an assumption about what Greg is talking about, which is somehow the least dumbass part of your comment — which is pretty fucking remarkable with how dumbass your comment is.
But then you finish it off by implying killing fish is WORSE than the state murdering innocent people. Like holy shit.
You have no idea what you’re talking about, your definition of ‘racist’ is completely and utterly wrong and throwing it anyone and everyone you can only makes you racist against the rest of the human race but that doesn’t matter now, does it ? Everyone has to bow to your inane definition or be accused of something you make up…please, I’ve dealt with real racism my entire life, not your pitiful attempt to manufacture something out of nothing. Please child, give yourself enough time on planet to understand things instead of just regurgitating the focus group approved catchphrase of the week…then ask the ‘blm’ crew for some of the millions they stole back, sell their mansions of you have to but try to use it for something good instead of just self aggrandizement and driving wedges between peoples instead of helping. Pity, I had hopes for this comic.
Some days I’m delighted to live in an age with the internet and the vast amount of entertainment it brings. And some days I encounter other people of the internet, who I would have been content to never know existed.
Anyway, agreed, small towns are where you make your own fun.
My grandmother died last night. This wasn't a shock or a surprise. Her health has been on the decline, and she's been in hospice for the last month. She lived a long life, and in her final days she was surrounded by her three adult children.
My grandma was a kind woman. She wasn't perfect, but I always felt loved in her presence. She was a retired kindergarten teacher, and was still working when I was a kid. I have so many happy memories sitting at her kitchen table, and I'm going to carry those with me for the rest of my life. She was also proof that anyone who claims that you get more conservative as you get older is full of shit, because she certainly didn't.
I think it's interesting how the body processes grief sometimes. I don't know that I'll cry, but over the past month, knowing this was coming, I've felt a tension in my gut. Now that she's passed, instead of relief that tension is replaced by a sense of emptiness. That something is missing that should still be there. Something has been taken away, and I feel it.
Of course, as I wrote that, I immediately started crying... so I guess my body processes grief in pretty ordinary ways too.
I wanted to come up with something profound linking this to Beltane, which we sit in the middle of right now, but it just seemed hackneyed. Like I was trying to dig out some greater significance when the truth is death comes whenever it wants. The only predictable thing about it is that it's the end of all of our journeys. I hope that when I pass I'm so lucky to have lived such a long life with people that I love around me in my final days.
For the record, I will be fine. I just needed to get these words out while they were still in my head. I don't have some rousing conclusion or deep insight to tack on here at the end, just that gut feeling that something is missing.

Well holy shit, I was not expecting an overt racist in the comments

“Pity, I had hopes for this comic.”
Well I had hopes you wouldn’t be a racist asshole. Looks like we both get to be disappointed today.
Turn off the Fox News and maybe actually speak to actual black people once and a while. Fucking hell.
“What the hell you got in those things, Burt?”
“A couple of household chemicals in the proper proportions.”
