My New Spirit Animal
Were you waiting to hear my take on Election Day? Of course you were. I was elated, as I imagine the vast majority of my readership was. We took the Senate and the possibility still remains that there will be the first black Senator from Mississippi since Reconstruction. The rebuke to MAGA was sharp, so Trump decided to talk about the ballroom and promote the eldritch Stephen Miller. I’ve seen a few psychological takes on how Trump will move forward and the picture is not rosy. We may be in for a bumpy ride, but you can always give your loved ones a hug.
We had a big turnout for Halloween this year. The Costco candy bag with 150 pieces was gone before 9pm, so we turned out the lights. I had the candy in a basket and a few kids said they wanted to choose their piece. I smiled and handed them whatever I had in my hand and then thought “you will take what I give you and get lost”. Just be glad I wasn’t handing out apples. I got a few of those as a kid and they usually became missiles.
Heidi Klum is well known for creating unusual costumes. This year she was a severed hand. I’m sure she is a sweet and well-adjusted human. And there was a kerfuffle about Martha Stewart’s homeless costume. Truth be told that was my go-to costume for years, but we referred to it as a hobo. Bob Dylan was not wearing a costume when he visited the Pope, but I saw more than one reference to Emperor Palpatine.
I’m sorry to report that Chock and Joan are going their separate ways. And People needs to get some better editors. How dare they call Chock a mundane name like Chuck. Joan should have read my 11/19/24 blog, wherein I advised folks to never hitch your wagon to a guy named Chock Chapple.
I did not get a post out in time to share my week 9 picks. I went 11-3 for week 8 and I’m 11-3 for week 9, with Buffalo as my pick tonight. I’m hoping that I’ll get out of this abysmal tie for 28th. Regardless of my status, we can all be happy that Minshewmania is back.
