Let’s do some more gender revealing:



Despite Anya Taylor-Joy being saddled with several dreadful-but-period-correct hairstyles in The Queen’s Gambit, I was captivated by this doll-like creature, and that has not changed since:








Lovely.
Sorry, folks, but I’m just not up to blogging for a while. I’ve been hit with a whole bunch of personal issues — family stuff, of no interest to anyone else so I’m not going to share. It’s not financial.
So no postings today, the next chapter of Busking memoirs (which I’d already written and set up) will appear tomorrow, the Classic Beauty (ditto) on Sunday and Monday Funnies (ditto) for Monday. Beyond that, I don’t know.
Let’s just call it a brief sabbatical.
The irony of this would have escaped the “Democrats” in Congress:

…consistency not being a noted trait among Marxists, hypocrisy ditto.
…and no, this isn’t a dig against the .dotmil. But you have to admit that this kind of stupidity is kinda different — an upgrade, if you will — from just the usual Congressional idiocy:
Pennsylvania state Rep. and former Democratic Party Vice-Chair Malcolm Kenyatta pushed a ban on “military-grade weapons” after the handgun/shotgun attack that occurred at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner (WHCD).
Yeah, by all means let’s ban include pump-action shotguns and handguns in the category of “military-grade weapons” (whatever that means) — because after all, the military does use them, right?
Sheesh, when clowns like this can be elevated to the position of Democrat Party Vice-Chair, what does that say for the people who couldn’t make the grade? And to use a sporting term, how deep is their bench of quality politicians?
Simple answer, of course, is that the current Democrat Party has no bench; their talent pool, which may once have contained intelligent men like Tip O’Neill and Sam Rayburn have all been driven out of the party leadership in favor of vacuous idiots like AOC and larcenous malcontents like Ilhan Omar, all by the hard Marxists who are now the nomenklatura of the Party Of Jefferson — who by now would have used a handgun on pretty much all of them if he could see what they’ve done to it.
As for this moron Kenyatta, he’s just trying to leverage any opportunity to get guns out of the hands of citizens. At least he’s behaving quite like his namesake, who was also an Afro-Socialist.
