A bunch of court jesters are saying fuck the people who work real jobs for a living.
Men who wear make-up and give each other golden idols because they pretended to be real sad that one time are saying fuck the farmers who grow their food, fuck the truck drivers who deliver everything they use, fuck the workers who built their homes, fuck the people who get paid peanuts to bring them electricity, water, gas, and internet into their house, fuck the guys who pick up their garbage, fuck they guys who keep their neighborhoods safe, fuck the guys throwing chains on an oil rig so they can gas up their vehicles they pretend they don't own, fuck their airline pilots, etc.
Amen, the pretend to be are looking down on the real people. let them build and grow their own chit. Not one penny to these court jesters. Tell them to get a real job now.
We pay them to entertain us and take us to a fantasy world for a couple of hours to forget our troubles. Once they started mocking our troubles and saying that we are horrible people because we are voting for a man who understands our troubles then they need to be cut of from our money.
They even suck at entertainment. I stopped watching movies in the late 70's they were that brain dead.
Like the Sonny and Cher show. Talk about lame. He sang like a woman and she sang like man. never watched another show with them. The jokes were lame also.
I grew up in a house that had the TV on 24-7 so pop-culture television was a huge part of my life but I turned my TV off in 1997 and never really turned it on again.
All seasons of Northern Exposure are on Amazon Prime right now so the wife and I are having some guilty pleasures by re-living that show but, just like every other show from the past that I try to watch again, there is so much that I just feel vicariously embarrassed about.
I really don't give a damn about TV, movies, video games, or sports and people I know say "then what do you do with your time?" and I say "draw a circle. Then, put a dot anywhere you want in that circle. The dot is pop-culture - TV, movies, video games, sports, entertainment magazines, celebrity social media posts, hit-music, fashionable clothes, the latest cell phone, and billboards on the freeway...
The rest of the circle is everything else.
Independent music, books, social gatherings, home cooking, gardening, raising chickens, sewing, preventative car maintenance, exercise, playing a musical instrument, writing your memoirs, calling somebody you haven't spoken to in a while, studying human health, studying history, studying religion, spending time with your pets, cleaning out the junk drawer, listening to somebody else talk about something they think is important, watching YouTube videos about things that have always been in our lives but we never really think about like the history of bricks, what do the different grades of leather mean?, what is a star bolt on old buildings for?, how were aqueducts built?...
We live in a big beautiful world but the vast majority of people are fixated on the tiny black dot.
Oh, and > "He sang like a woman and she sang like man." I'm stealing that and calling it my own.

Amen to that, brother.
