Meloni Smash!

It’s obvious Mark G @Guyvermectin has watched that shower seen in Oz way too many times and is having inexplicable feelings “down there.”

While i am thrilled he is gone, NOTHING at Fox will change. They will simply replace him with another liar—just one that won’t badmouth the bosses behind their backs and likely one who passionately and unashamedly loves to push lies and the Reich, no matter what.

Another Trip Down Memory Lane

Back in 1983, the lot at the southeast corner of Wilmot Road and Grant Avenue in Tucson was vacant. I figured that sooner or later some developer would snatch it up and another apartment complex would soon appear.

Deep in what I call my “Mos Eisley” design phase, I decided to beat them to the punch and design a small complex myself. Hard to believe it now, but I actually used to do this for fun.

These (and several similar houses I designed around the same time) were designed for the desert; three foot thick concrete walls, high ceilings and small windows to keep the heat out. Maybe overkill then, but with global warming rapidly turning our planet into an air fryer, who’s to say this won’t be the norm in 100 years?

Looking at these plans now, I realize that these units are not handicap accessible and also have to ask, why a shared laundry? My only answer could be, “It was 1983. There was no Americans With Disabilities Act; and no one was putting individual washers and dryers in rental units!” (At least not in Tucson.)

Sounds Familiar, Doesn’t It?

Hitler’s sales pitch to the German people was grounded in the idea that average German working people were victims and Hitler was their champion.

He claimed Jews, homosexuals, and socialists had “stabbed Germany in the back” by participating in negotiations for the Treaty of Versailles that imposed punitive conditions on the country, producing widespread poverty and an economic crisis.

If the German people were victims, Hitler told them, the villains were German minorities, promoting degeneracy like jazz and swing music, tolerance of homosexuality and transgender people, and the “international Jewish conspiracy.”

Once the Nazis took power they banned books, outlawed drag shows and homosexuality, changed school curricula to remove mention of their atrocities in WWI, and rewrote election laws so they’d never again lose an election.
