THE DODDERY OLD MAN THEY CLAIMED WAS RUNNING THE WORLD...

-- "A gleeful Obama had waltzed off the stage to the music, followed by a smiling former first lady Jill Biden, while the 46th president stood there seemingly dazed all by himself. For reasons that aren’t clear, the 83-year-old went over to the podium and took off his sunglasses before staring into the crowd with a puzzled look on his face." --
It gets better... by which I mean worse...
Where’s my granddaughter?” he shouted from the podium.

SCARBOROUGH SOCIOPATHS WATCH WOMAN SLOWLY FREEZE TO DEATH... MERRY CHRISTMAS

MEDIA TRIES TO PAINT HEROIC PICTURE NONETHELESS...insert alt text hereNot shaken to the point of actually providing help, I would add...
-- "The woman’s death came during an especially frigid period in the city where it felt as cold as minus 19 C with the windchill. And while Toronto’s warming centres were open on Dec. 21, they closed the following day." --
OTOH... some crises demand action...
-- "A cat has been saved from eviction from his ambulance station home." --
Ho, ho, ho...
-- "A man was rushed to the hospital after being stabbed on Christmas Eve near Fort York Boulevard andf Bathurst Street in downtown Toronto." --

-- SAN DIEGO — "Close to half of all new U.S. gun buyers since the beginning of 2019 have been women, a shift for a market long dominated by men, according to a new study. An estimated 3.5 million women became new gun owners from January 2019 through April of this year." --
BONUS ROUND:

-- "It was found that new gun buyers were also more racially diverse." --

-- "Despite holding the unenviable record of the highest murder rate in America in 2020, residents of St Louis, Missouri have just voted in a new mayor promising to defund the police and close the city’s most notorious prison."

Build a wall, top it with glass shards...

...dot it with gun towers and lay landmines...insert alt text hereThe only vacation destination, you're ever likely to hear the phrase, "Mountain of severed heads"...
"Gunmen from Mexican narco-terrorist Cartel Jalisco Nueva Generacion burned off the face of a rival and recorded the man’s agony as he begged for death."
I think I've heard of these pharmaceutical bon-vivants...
"Cartel Jalisco New Generation gunmen kidnapped, castrated and murdered a rival group of men in Coatzacoalcos, Veracruz."
What the heck, it's not gonna affect anybody who lives aroun... wait...
"Police said nine of 14 vehicles from the same shipment, found at 13 different Ontario dealerships, contained meth."

Republican lawmakers are calling on the U.S. Department of Justice to open a criminal investigation into Netflix for “peddling child pornography” after the streaming giant released the preteen twerking film “Cuties.”

Home Improvement

insert alt text hereHalfway through dealing with a kitchen sink drain malfunction and ready to [cultural appropriation alert!] commit seppuku. The realisation that I am no longer as functional or flexible as I once was, has been brought home like a runaway train.

After plunging and attempting to snake the drain from ground level, and apparently making things worse, I retreated to the basement to transect the 2" PVC at a point where I could snake it both ways before it met the larger unclogged main drain.

Turns out the pipe was completely plugged along a three foot section before a turn [with gawd only knows what] and somewhat plugged for a few feet beyond that. Decades of dishwasher debris have to be a contributing factor. Either that, or some sci-fi alien intruder has been taking a dump in the sink when we're not here.

I will leave the minutiae of the unclogging process to your collective imagination. Horrible, evil smelling debris with plenty of aerosolized ejecta as I sawed the pipe. Cleaned it out and remounted with removable couplers [for ease of periodic maintenance] and it's finally fully functional again.

Despite our best efforts, there was... let's call it leakage... and cleanup promises to double our fun. I will never again complain about the money a good plumber demands.

Apparently, the rest of Britain said...

..."Screw you, we're staying firmly Pro-Racist"...
"The Brighton and Hove City Council pledged to become an anti-racist authority, following over 10,000 BLM protesters taking to the streets of the city last month alone."
Virtue-signalling is becoming an Olympic sport.

Toronto Mayor belatedly discovers...

...bending over & grabbing ankles not a viable solution...
What began as a Monday night rally at Queen’s Park protesting Bill 184 — the Protecting Tenants and Strengthening Community Housing Act — ended up outside the Yorkville condo of Mayor John Tory, where protesters clashed with police.
Apparently he's not abjectly sorry enough...
“I think that kind of talk about sort of, you know, where this all arises from, or sort of who’s to blame, is not very constructive,” Toronto Mayor John Tory told reporters in Nathan Phillips Square.
LAST WORD: Real gold is in the comments...
"Defund police protecting John Torys condo!"

Fighting Racism...

...one set of directions at a time.

As long as there's a huge demand for these products, they'll keep selling them. That's capitalism...insert alt text here
PARIS - French cosmetics giant L'Oreal said in a statement Saturday that it “has decided to remove the words white/whitening, fair/fairness, light/lightening from all its skin evening products.”
Understand here... they're not discontinuing the products. They'll just remove any written reference to skin colour and apparently justice will be served.

And, of course, nobody is addressing the other side of the equation...
"Can't I simply "identify" as having a different skin color than the one I was born with? It would be quicker, safer and cheaper. And political correctness would protect me from criticism."
Hey, remember when Michael Jackson tried to turn himself into Elizabeth Taylor?insert alt text hereWell... E.T. with stubble.

Prime Minstrel joins howling chorus

"Jus' keepin it real, dawg!"insert alt text here
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Friday afternoon injected himself into escalating tensions over George Floyd’s death.

"Many Canadians of diverse backgrounds are watching like all Canadians are, the news out of the United States, with shock and with horror."
Bear in mind, Justin isn't talking about mob violence and burning police stations to the ground.

TIME TRAVEL WITH ME TO 2017:

That's so strange... I must've missed Justin chiming in about the horrific murder of Justine Damond.
insert alt text hereOr how about cops being murdered?
Two sisters from upstate New York were arrested for throwing a Molotov cocktail into an NYPD van during the night-long protest in Brooklyn over the death of George Floyd, police said.
**********

SMELL THE PROFESSIONAL JOURNALISM:
"The 29-year-old's death sparked widespread community reaction and online attention when her cousin and mother took to social media claiming she was pushed by police."
Wait...
"No family members were inside the unit at the time of Korchinski-Paquet's death and it's unclear if anyone witnessed her death."
But, hey... "Police Death Squads."

Minneapolis, Minneapolis... that sounds so familiar.

I'm so old I can remember when...

...looters were the bad guys...insert alt text here
"Left-wing documentary filmmaker Michael Moore declared early Friday morning that the Minneapolis Police Department headquarters must be demolished as a “contrition to Black America” in the midst of rioters setting a police precinct ablaze."
It gets better... by which I mean worse...

Rioters coming to the suburbs...insert alt text hereCan't help thinking, "Looks like ISIS, smells like ISIS, walks like ISIS."

RELATED: Smell the "professional" reporting...
“While the situation on the ground in Minneapolis is fluid, and there has been violence, it is most accurate at this time to describe what is happening there as ‘protests’–not riots,” NBC host Craig Melvin wrote on Twitter Thursday.
Black Lives Matter Minneapolis was apparently unavailable for comment.
