“The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”

Coronavirus does not give you the shits

I love that in the age of the Internet nothing is above mockery, ridicule, and scorn. 

Take that, hoarders! 😂

Pandemic or no, the Pope gets his weekly rake

Apparently, Pope Francis is appalled that the church has decided to close its doors during the Coronavirus spread. He commented:
“In these days we are united to the sick and the families suffering from this pandemic. I would also like to pray today for the shepherds who must accompany the people of God in this crisis.”
He then added: "Corona Schmarona, Lord help these shepherds to continue to pass the collection plates so that we may help ourselves, er, I mean, those in need."
I've included this helpful picture of this Sunday's rake from one pew in one Catholic church......not bad. 🙄

Polygamy is the new monogamy

This is Kody Brown of the TLC show "Sister Wives", the ambitious husband to 4 wives in a more-or-less happy, polygamous marriage. The state of Utah is considering decriminalizing polygamy and making it simply an infraction rather than a felony.

Criminalizing polygamy hasn't stopped it. There are roughly 50,000 people currently living in polygamous families in Utah and elsewhere. They aren't hurting anybody.....maybe confusing their kids a little but that's their business.

Most mortal guys can barely handle the one wife we've got, if Kody wants to tackle 4 of them, go for it my brother. ðŸ˜‚😂


Hirsuited hipsters doomed to Coronavirus infection

Headline: [Men with facial hair are at greater risk for contracting Coronavirus because beards prevent respirators from properly sealing to the face.]

Hipsters everywhere reportedly distraught. ðŸ˜‚🤣😂

I've included this helpful graphic guide to CDC-approved facial hair patterns.


Mayor Pete's supporters

Over on "Hot Air" they asked where Mayor Pete's followers will go now that he's dropped out. Here are the top three answers:
3: Most of them being underachieving millennials, back to their parents' basement
2: Therapy, then vote for Trump
1: Both of them go to Sanders
Hahahaha, with apologies to Yogi Berra, the Interwebs are 50% hilarity, 50% brutality, and the rest is videos of animals being adorable.

Still irreverent after all these years

Are there betting odds on Weinstein's survival in Riker's Island?

So Harvey Weinstein got sentenced to 23 years as the point-man of the #MeToo movement.
Because that’s a life sentence for him, he’s a good friend of Hillary Clinton’s, and has nothing to lose by dishing dirt, how long will he last at Riker’s before he gets “Epsteined”?
I predict he’ll be found dead in his cell in less than 6 months.

Suicide Chump

So Chelsea Manning apparently missed being in jail because even though Obama pardoned her, she managed to get back in the klink by refusing a subpoena to testify in some Wikileaks espionage trial or something and attempting(poorly) suicide by hanging herself with bedsheets. She's fine, I guess she just needed some attention or sympathy.

Anyway, the story reminded me of this classic Frank Zappa song. Better luck next time Chelsea!
