They Promised Sunshine

It Doesn't Look Like Sunshine to Me

They promised sunshine today, but all I see is grey skies. It's not like the sky is partly sunny and mostly cloudy, okay? It's all grey. Freaking forecasters f*cked it up. The only sunshine happened in sunrise. Ever since then, their promise of SUNNY ALL AFTERNOON has been a crock of shite.

Forgive me for being bitter, Karen and Chad, but when you work in a windowless building from 7:30 antemeridian to 4:00 postmeridian in the dead of winter in the eastern wasteland of Maine, false promises of natural vitamin D are a big freakin' deal! They freakin' lied. Gaslighting is what it is. G-D politicians is what they are. Telling the masses what they think we want to hear 'cuz they think we're too stoopid to know better. F*ckin' stoopid G-D politicians. You think we don't know what yore doin'?? Frickin' gaslighters.

What about the weather forecast and sunshine? Quit yer whining, Chad and Karen! Don't you get it? It's not about the frickin' weather, you maroons. It's about the G-D gaslightin' politicians. They think they know what's best for us, and they tell us how it's gonna be and we're just supposed to live with what they tell us. You know it's true. Don't matter what party they belong to, neither. Every party does it. "Vote for me, 'cuz I'll make sure blah, blah, blah!" And when they get in office, they do shite for us and all for them. Friggin' gaslighters. Every single one of the fart-nosed limp-fishes.

The world's gonna run outta oil in 30 years! Didn't happen. If we don't stop using electricity, or plastic, or wood, or coal, or gasoline, or you-name-it, there'll be cat-as-trophies! Nah. That's just the gaslighters tryin' to tax us to death and get control of everythin' we do. Think about this sequence: Remember that Cash 4 Clunkers deal from a decade or more ago? Now, why did those gaslighters do that? To removed affordable used cars from the marketplace, of course. They removed cars that provided parts for cars that are still on the road today, forcing poorer families to buy more expensive cars today.

As people are forced to buy more expensive cars today, they are forced to rely on the government more to pay for those cars. As they rely more on the government, the government controls more of the types of cars people can buy. Let's ask this question: What good are electric cars in cold environments? ZERO. The cars AND the chargers DIE. WHY DO THE GASLIGHTERS want to force cold-weather states to sell EVs? To control where citizens travel to.

Chad and Karen, if you haven't thought this through and if you think I'm being irrational, then you just don't have intellectual curiosity. This ain't R vs. D or red vs blue. This is just common sense thinking. It's the weather forecast all over again. Still not following? Try this one: You go to a state that has a huge supply of rivers and streams, but struggles to generate enough electric power for itself. Part of that is because the Chads and Karens protest the use of hydroelectric power. They say it causes "ecosystem" damage. However, these same people are happy to allow electrical power lines that run on poles through the state's forests, destroying hundreds of acres. They don't care of about that ecosystem. They also don't care if the state landscape is marred by gigantic windmills that are made of non recyclable materials, generate small amounts of power, and also destroy thousands of acres of forested lands.

But they call us the problem when we point out their inconsistencies. They tell us the sun is going to shine, and when all we see is grey skies, they say we don't know what sunshine looks like, when the truth is that they don't know a burro from burrow, a.k.a., they don't know their a$$ from a hole in the ground.
