LET THEM EAT BEEF

https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/11/world/europe/tariffs-farm-products-beef-meat-european-union-trump.html 

Couldn't contain myself. I'm so sick of this trade policy Trump is trying to push. Bottom line, he is trying to strong arm EU into buying inferior American products. Funny, how the capitalist of all capitalists can't do business in an open trade environment. Yesterday, it was American cars. Everyone, American or not, wants German cars, Japanese cars, probably Chinese cars if they could be sold here because they are SUPERIOR PRODUCTS, stupid!!! 

Today, it's beef and agricultural products. As someone who has been eating organic since 1989--no easy feat back then even in NYC trust me--I have seen the rise of the organic industry due to demand. Now, we want to export cancer and all kinds of diseases to the EU. 

Our beef or cars and a whole lot more aren't "beautiful"; they are inferior products that nobody buys unless the president of the US threatens them. Instead of that, why doesn't the US try to make a better product that the world would want to pay for?

MAYBE WE JUST GOT SICK

 

Well, written article about some influencer, but all this return to thinness maybe because of the fact that we got sick of looking at rolls of fat. I, personally, feel sick when trying to buy Victoria Secret lingerie. Imagine, Victoria Secret that used to feature true earthly angels. And that's woke. No wonder Trump won. The left is perverse. And then as soon as the fatsos can, they lose weight and celebrate that. Stop the fucking celebration and get real. Eat healthy, exercise and get on with it. The article would have served a better purpose to have explored what makes a society deem near anorexia attractive. 

However, the reason I hate this inclusivity ethos is that it hypocritical. They shame us normal people into being judgmental about health issues that obesity brings while they indulge their food addiction. Do, I want to eat a pint of Hagen Dazs everyday to forget my troubles? Sure. But if I did, I would acknowledge it; I have an addiction, it isn't good for me and I'm trying to fight it but sometimes it just feels too good. Judge me as you would an alcoholic, a heroine addict or a smoker, but an addict I am. I don't like that part of me and I don't ask you to. I may be fighting today or not,  but everyday I expect empathy and sympathy and manners, perhaps kindness from my fellow flawed humans.

REALLY?

ABOUT TIME WOMAN!

I was extremely critical of this extremely privileged Arab woman, a human rights lawyer, for not speaking out against the genocide in Palestine. Finally, she has and it feels good. She might have kept quiet to be a good wife and not ruin her husband's career in Hollywood given the retribution against the actors and others who have spoken out. Although, I believe what the Netanyahu's government is doing is reprehensible, I know that not every Jew feels the same, many are against the war and hopefully their voices will be heard. Peace sooner the better.

WHAT REALLY GETS MY GOAT

If I try to respond in their comments section, The Times disapproves and buries it, so I have to address it on my blog. I can't take this insane misinformation that the world's populace is fed by its leaders and the press. 

1) Jimmy Carter handed Iran to Khomeini. There is a lot of evidence for this. My dad, who had a front seat to the 1979 revolution, knew this, so did all of the other political players. The documentation is available even on the western mainstream press. So, no the US and the mullahs haven't been enemies as each leadership claims. 

2) The mullahs attacked Israel full-well knowing that heir stupid drones and rockets won't do any real damage. 

3) Israel bombing some military facility in Iran is another wrist slapping. If either of these two countries wanted to do damage to one another as Israel is doing to the Palestinians they would. They play at this shit to shut their own populations up who fully expect enmity between the two governments and preserve their own legitimacy as well as unite their populace as they quaver behind their esteemed leaders. 

I wish the press would stop reporting on the surface events and get to the bottom of these governments' corrupt self-serving actions. 

THE PRINCESS GETS A POSSIBLE TUMMY TUCK

    So the world is speculating about Kate Middleton's abdominal surgery. Since my comment on Yahoo was rejected by the PC police turned AI, I will tell you here and now that the woman has had a tummy tuck. Why so much secrecy then if not to shield the princess from looking vain, but after three kids and the rumors of William prancing with another woman, I would want one too. So, I hope everyone would leave her alone. She might look perfect and act as perfectly as the press allows her, but no one's life is perfect.

So, I can delete this post and pretend that I never said those stupid things, but I'm not America pretending I was never racist with pulling down all the offensive statues. I guess I preferred to think that Kate Middleton's problem was a lot sillier than it is, and also didn't the palace actually say, it wasn't cancer initially? Well, always PR whores what else can cure the doctored photo (so stupid everybody does it and those most scrutinized shouldn't? Talk about a double standard. Being royal is hell : ) And the initial palace secrecy but the nation rallying around a sick princess. But I got to say, with Charles' diagnosis and now Kate's I wonder whether Megan Markle is thinking karma is a bitch, bitches. 

I'M SURE THE MULLAHS WILL CRY THEMSELVES A RIVER

Enough said. 

THEY FINALLY KILLED HIM

 

https://www.nytimes.com/live/2024/02/16/world/aleksei-navalny

    As the New York Times reported this morning Navalny is dead. Died? Yes, murdered, yes. I can't imagine a person proclaim his/her principles and for them subject him/herself to torture and eventual death. I greatly admire those who do, Navalny was one of those people---a hero. I hope the world will  always remember him as a righteous martyr for a free Russia. Long live his life spark.
