I'm starting to think I'm saving all my anger/anxiety/sadness, and seemingly, fleeting joy for the weekend!
One thing that struck me this week was how lines from movies have become appropriate tags for the endless stream of lunacy coming from the current administration.
The line uttered by George Clooney in O Brother Where Art Thou? captures the GOP timeline for every fucking thing:
"Well, ain't this place a geographical oddity. Two weeks from everywhere!"
I thought of the line from The Hunt for Red October when Cankles (H/t Bob) threatened that "a whole civilization will die tonight."
"You arrogant ass. You've killed us!"
Spoken in the Russian submarine right before its own torpedo blew it up. (Watch the movie, it's the best chick flick around IMHO)
The other thought that crossed my mind, after Pope Leo announced he would not visit the USA for the 4th of July celebration, was that this administration seems to have forgotten how strong the last guy from the Southside of Chicago was! And let us not forget, he is also a White Sox fan, just like 44 was. IYKYK
Anyway, sweetpeas, let's go into this weekend staying positive and remembering, as Greg on Instagram says, Find your Joy!

Addendum:
Go see Maddie for weekend instructions
We'll get through this and hopefully the regime will be dismantled and punished ... and perhaps sent to one of Kristi's Koncentration Kamps.
ReplyDeleteLove you weekend!
