Before I go any further, here’s to my Manchester United Red Devils for securing third-place in the Premier League and by doing so, enter the rarified air (and money) of Champion’s League football next season.
Well done lads!
Kyle Rittenhouse, once the darling of the MAGA movement, has decided to back Trump opponent Kentucky’s Thomas Massie and it is just another piece of the base that is being eroded as we live and breathe.
Pussy.
So nobody shows up for any of Trump’s big events. In Japan, they have distancing where people will physically put space between themselves and a perceived offender. Kind of like not showing up for an “event.”
His days are numbered.
Restaurant closures are just another indicator of our struggling economy. The simple act of treating yourself to a nicely prepared and presented meal by attentive, appreciative servers are history. Dining out has become a war of wills: the eating/drinking establishment and their will to maximize profit at every possible juncture throughout the dining “process” and the distrustful, adversarial approach to the simple act of tipping taken by customers dealing with entitled people spinning their wheels in the big game of life.
Newsflash!
The world does not owe you a living.
Restauranteurs, the old days of somewhat predictable prices (and their rates of increase) are over. You can no longer “squeeze every drop of juice” out of your profits; tariffs, minimum wage legislation, and a disenchanted work force all conspire to eat away traditional means of generating sales and increasing profits. It’s not really fair at all, but there is always backlash when establishments raise their prices, as if they are the dumbass causing all this mess, so do everyone a favor.
If you don’t want to go through the New Normal for dining out, stay home.
But if you decide to go out, figure your costs to include a 20% gratuity IF you were provided good service.
As a former food service guy I tip for the bare minimum service as I have a lot of empathy for the profession.
But I will not tip for BAD service.
There is a big difference being waited on by a server who is covering four extra tables due to staffing problems and the server who is only “working” to appease Mom and Dad and really can’t wait until the shift ends.
So we all know FBI chief Kash Patel is a drunk dumbass.
So he obviously likes his blow too, if his recent bout of the sniffles, bloodshot eyes, and slurred speech are any indicators. I’d have no problem at all forgiving those misgivings if on top of it all, he wasn’t such a lying piece of shit, but there you go.
Kaitlan Collins keeps getting under the president’s skin as she calls out that idiot Vice-President J.D. Vance who is just not good at lying.
Oh, he does it enough you would think he would get better at it, but if he somehow makes it on the 2028 Republican ticket for the presidency, his presence will sure bolster the hopes for the Democrats who better come up with some viable options for Chief Executive other than that idiot Kamala Harris.
Buckle up!
Stay well.
