I don’t always immediately post a Tweet when I think of
it. Sometimes, I’ll put them aside to post later. Slowly, the neglected Tweets have built up into a
little mountain that I’ll never get around to posting. Some topics are a little
out of date, some are timeless. Either way, I’m going to clear out my unposted
Tweet collection here.
Some of these aren’t fully formed Tweets, but roughs, so
they may be a bit over 140 characters. Others may be expanded ideas that aren’t
big enough for a full blog post.
You may have to visit this post a few times. The links
included with most of the Tweets will all add up and I wouldn’t want to
interrupt anyone’s poop time.
I think the end of the year is a good time to clear out all
of my brain farts.
Happy New Year…
The
only people who claim that people want to ban guns are anti-gun control people.
They have to lie to make their point. Which means they have no point. So,
everything they say after that has no merit.
Background
checks do not take away your guns.
Trigger
locks do not take away your guns.
Safe
storage does not take away your guns.
Reduced
magazine capacity does not take away your guns.
Mental
health checks do not take away your guns. (unless they need to)
Full
auto weapons bans do not take away your right to own 1,000's of other guns.
And
the ludicrous notion that one might need a gun to stop a tyrannical government
is grounds for labeling one 'mentally unbalanced.'
(I
think that may have ended up being part of a “discussion” I had.)

I wrote this a
couple weeks before the Walking Dead season finale. I never posted it. Instead
of throwing it away, I'll share it with you now. I don't like wasting a good
mad-on. Spoiler Alert: There are no spoilers; it's safe to read.
"You know what
pisses me off?
No. No. Not that.
Not that, either. No. No. No. - Okay, so you know about a lot of the things
that piss me off. But when a TV show has a great storyline and it plays out to
a great ending but they don't end it and keep a character around just to
continue beating that dead horse - a horse named "The Governor" - I
get angry and eventually bored with the show and really, Really, REALLY want to
see something new. Beating dead horses is neither creative, nor interesting.
It's more akin to the feeling of being on water skis and the boat is pulling
you toward a ramp. Behind the ramp, you can see a floating penned-in area. You
start to wonder what is in that watery pen. Then you see a fin break the
surface. The boat is pulling you closer to the ramp. Closer..."
Thank fuck that shit
is over. A whole season to get to what should have been the ending for LAST
season.

Dan Savage was on
Bill Maher several weeks ago. Maher mentioned that a Catholic bishop said
children had a greater chance of committing suicide if adopted by a gay couple.
Savage responded beautifully: “That’s total bullshit. He’s confusing children
of gay parents with children who are raped by Catholic priests. Sorry, I am
just done being lectured about children and their safety by Catholic-fucking
bishops, priests and cardinals.”
