I get such a rush from trust falls. The feeling of momentary weightlessness as i surrender myself to gravity and my complete trust in the human decency of the person who catches my out of the proverbial rye, as it were. It's spiritually fulfilling and exhilarating at the same time. Like a safe rollercoaster.

Not mad, it's just the last time I saw him he was talking about how they were in this big fight and weren't really sure where they were at as a couple, and he comes over tonight for BBQ and drops this bombshell. Damn near dropped my cheesy potatoes. Heavy stuff mang.

My dope man got his girlfriend pregnant.

Boo!

Had a drink and disorderly yesterday at work. Lady in our entrance just a bobbin' and a weavin', could not understand a word coming out of her mouth, just full on plastered. Now, by virtue of the nature of the organization i'm with, we deal with a lot of people with special needs. So assuming the best from everyone, i figure this lady probably just has some disorder and needs assistance. So i get two other leaders up there, try to get her to sit down in the wheelchair we provided (i have no idea how she was still standing and all i could think about is her falling and cracking her head open). So we get her seated finally and i'm trying to adk her if she came with somebody, so we could page them up to the front for her. Finally get her to say "nurse named ____" and "you're not going to get her in trouble, are you?" Ok, nurse. So i'm probably right and this lady has a disorder. I assure her that her nurse isn't in trouble, and go to page her. Takes a bit but eventually i see someone slowly meandering up front. "Excuse me, are you the nurse named ____?" I asks her. "Yeah the woman in our entrance said that you were her caretaker and i believe she may need help." Lady looks at the woman who is now alternating between shouting and crying at the other leader i left to watch her. "Oh yeah, thats my daughter, she's just drunk." Keep in mind this is like 2 pm. I says "ok, well, public intoxication is illegal, so we're going to have to ask you to take her home..." "Oh she's fine." Says her mom. "Mam, she's been causing a commotion in our entrance, we can't have that. You're going to need to take her home." "What do you mean she's causing a commotion?" "Well, she's stumbling and shouting, we've got her sitting in a wheelchair right now so she doesn't fall and hurt herself..." "Oh she's fine." "Mam? Public intoxication is a crime. I need you to take her home." Lady grumbles something under her breath about customer service and how nobody's helping her. At this point i'm pretty sure she's also drunk just not as visibly impaired. So i assist her with the assumption that when i get her taken care of she will take her daughter and leave. And she starts to, so i pop into the office to call the boss and let her know the situation has been resolved. Then one of the other leaders busts in to tell me the lady is going beast mode on the wheelchair and tring to bust it up. Boss tells me i can call the cops if i need to. I go back out there and the mom is backing her truck up to the entrance so she can take her daughter home, the other leader i had up there watching her is helping to load her in, and gives her a big hug. So once everything is said and done i go off on this guy. "Why the hell did you hug her? Did we not just have a meeting monday morning about how during the last week one of us was threatened with a gun and another was injured when someone threw something at them?" "Well she said she needed a hug," he says. "She could have stabbed you or something." I says "check and make sure you still have your wallet." I apologized for admonishing him, but jesus, safety is everyone's responsibility.

Weirdest goddamn timeline.

also meant to post this song because its a great goddamn song. Excellent video too.

https://www.indystar.com/story/news/2021/09/14/mike-pence-donald-trump-struggles-detailed-book-peril/8339052002/ Mike Pence seriously considered using his role as president of the senate to overturn the election results before speaking with Dan Quayle. Crazy stuff.

Nah I hear ya. But y'gotta watch out for that Mutually Assured Distruction. It'll getcha every time.

So the thing is, it's not just "nuclear war". The world has a policy of Mutually Assured Destruction. Nobody is supposed to nuke anyone, but if anyone ever does launch a nuke, everyone agreed to launch their own and end the world in nuclear fire. The idea is folks won't launch nukes if the know it will literally end human society. Worst part is it'd theoretically be worse if somebody launched a nuke and we didn't all end in a bang. If somebody launches a nuke, and we don't end the world, then it was a bluff- there was no real deterrent and nuclear missiles are no longer taboo. All war becomes nuclear. I mean practically speaking we'll wipe ourselves out either way. That's why we try to keep game show hosts away from the button.

The dog didn't stop on any floors. He went all the way to the roof.

CEO of our organization came in to work today, along with the executive leadership team. First thing he says when he sees me is he asks how my brewing is going. Good times.

I think thats a wheel of morality, not mortality. That or MOBAIIIY.

Capitol police are asking for permission to kill the folks who show up for the upcoming 9/18 riot, but don't think it will come to that as Trump will not be attending. Charlie Kirk and others also have not chartered busses to ship in potential terrorists this time. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/sep/12/capitol-fence-congress-january-attack

No it isnt.

Here, maybe this'll keep you occupied.

With no intention of reading nabs post, I assume it's something about Bush being a war criminal. Which he very much is. And it's really telling how the republican party has moved so far to the right in the past decades that Bush has been recast as a bleeding-heart and Romney, the former vulture capitalist, is painted as a socialist. Cray cray.

Bush sorta just called Trump’s people terrorists. So thats cool. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/09/11/yes-jan-6-insurrectionists-were-terrorists-george-w-bush-just-indicted-them/

They don't let you fight there or have their own in-house brewery.

Think I got a winning pitch here-
