Where I Am Not Today

The auto dealership where I bought my car five years ago desperately wants me to drive down there today and sell my car back to them. I feel so guilty about the manager being in an embarrassing situation!

More money than I ever thought possible for my car? I wonder what my house is worth? Solicitations from local realtors, as well as “we buy homes” outfits, come in the mail almost weekly. They’d be delighted to give me an estimate of the house’s market value! But I’m a grumpy “aging in place” senior whose selfishness is preventing some nice, young family from owning a home.

Follow-up: I’ve done some checking on the local market. It seems the recent spike in mortgage rates is having a negative effect on the asking prices for houses, compared to a couple of months ago.

A Modest Proposal

mih has suggested that the Supreme Court should reconsider the constitutionality of Loving v. Virginia. Others have noted its omission in yesterday’s concurring opinion from Clarence Thomas.

Clarence and Virginia Thomas

In a “what if” world, Loving v. Virginia is overturned, and Clarence Thomas’ marriage would be declared illegal. Then returning to the America of the 1800’s, as was done in the abortion opinion, Clarence will be called “boy” and become Ginni’s property. MAGA success!

SOTUS Delivers Two Sharp Rights

Yesterday, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of all guns all the time. Today, it’s the end of a woman’s right to an abortion. The Radical Right wins.

Why stop there? Social Security needs to be abolished, then there’s the elimination of income tax. Finish up with a return to slavery.

Why bother passing this gun legislation? It will be challenged and the Supreme Court will invalidate it.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A bipartisan gun violence bill that seemed unimaginable a month ago is on the verge of winning final congressional approval, a vote that will produce lawmakers’ most sweeping answer in decades to brutal mass shootings that have come to shock yet not surprise Americans.

The ONLY way to deal with the easy access to guns is to repeal the Second Amendment. It won’t happen in my lifetime, but it will happen.

I was going to post this Fresh Air segment back in January, but I held off, having a feeling that much more would be revealed about the insanity of Ginni Thomas. Which has happened.
