Either/Or

Something about the song of my people.

I’m going to apologize for being so heinously boring lately. Things have been all wacky like, but in a good way.  I’ve also come to understand I am far more interesting when I write angry blogs over happy blogs. I’m generally happy and too tired to brew up a healthy head of self-righteous steam.

Look at it this way though: in a month the political bullshit should calm down some. I promise you I will prolly have some awesome rants about what happens between now and then, but soon the politicians will stop talking to us and go back to talking to each other, and we can forget what kind of out of touch ninnies run our country.

I think it is imperative for the country’s homeostasis that our citizens forget that politicians have no clue. When there are big contentious elections like this one, all of the politicians feel the needs to speak, and we suffer because we realize these are the people who are running our country. For some of us, it is even more upsetting to know our fellow Americans are willing to vote for someone who calls evolution “lies straight from the pit of hell” along with “legitimate rape” (both folks serve on science subcommittees, AWESOME) and one Arkansas state politician who called slavery a blessing in disguise.

Anyway, soon the election will be over. The dust will settle, and politicians will go back to their business of doing whatever it is they do, and we can become good little consumers again. We will regain our homeostasis and go back to being pissed about Facebook changes and reality television. (I know that sounded snide and pretentious, and it was a little of both, but I am the Facebook a lot and I watch some reality television like everyone else, so I was being snide and pretentious about myself, too.
