America- have some common sense...

So there's some craziness going on in America
So some people didn't get what they wanted
So some people want to fight the system

The outcome of the 2016 election may suck, but we were going to end up with one of these two (actually there were 5 but let's not get into that) people as our President..... so it is done, it has happened.... and now it's time to come together and make the most of it. Please.


I keep seeing people post on how they are terrified or scared 
Well.. what are you scared of exactly? 

War? Because that's happening.
School shootings? Because that's happening.
Pipeline? That's been happening.
Terrorism? Definitely alive and well.
Going broke due to health insurance? Mm yes.
Corruption throughout the system? Already there.
Police officers being murdered? Yep, that's happening.
Innocent lives being lost? Happens every day
Bullying? Check.
Loss of jobs? We've got that on lock.
Loss of Social Security? That's been on it's way down the drain.
Rising numbers of homeless, welfare recipients, foster kids, gangs, or otherwise 'unwanted' peoples? If you aren't aware of them, you need to make yourself aware.
Being discriminated against for your religion, political views, sexual orientation, race? That's been going on. Doesn't matter who you are- we are all judgmental assholes at some moment or another.
Rape, murder, violence, riots... all going on and has been.

So tell me, what are you scared of that is not already happening basically everywhere?
This isn't a Trump problem, this is a people problem. 
We all need to reevaluate our own selves.
Maybe America is a little too scared and a little too easily offended.
Quit being scared, sitting around crying, being offended by everything..... step up and do your part as an American, no, as a damn human being. Treat others with respect, help and encourage one another, raise your kids right, be a contributing member of society. Make sure your hands are clean, that's your job. Burning the American flag? Get out of here with that, how about you do your job to make it a better place.
But right now, all I see is hate. It's disturbing, and the ones with the most hate are being exactly what they claim to be against.
Why is all of this stuff just common sense to me? We all need to do our part to make America Great Again, and if you think it's great the way it is you need to open your pretty eyes and see that not everyone has it great. Not your problem? Selfish. Ever seen "Trading Places" ? Great movie. Everyone should watch it. It will make us ALL feel some emotions towards our fellow man.

Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, and Happy Holidays

Everyone's thinking it, I'm asking: Is today's left wing liberalism a mental illness?

This is a serious topic of discussion on 'the right'. Not even the far right... the center right. The " 68 % conservatives", the "Centrists", the "Young Outsiders", and the "Somewhat Liberals".  I don't know what the spectrum is for "political or world views" but I'd have to say I hang to the right and the conservative. Which sounds so weird, because CONSERVATIVE is not really a word I'd  ever  use to describe myself. But I talked about this in past blog posts... today's topic is, are people on the FAR LEFT suffering from mental illness? My psychologist sister would have you believe that everyone suffers from some form of mental illness in varying degrees. I suffer from anxiety which induces depression. FUN! The anxiety is inherited, the depression is what occurs when you stop learning how to cope with new or prolonged anxiety inducing situations. Anxiety is a product of chemical imbalance, it can be trea...

The new normal: Fat acceptance

A new study published in the 'International Journal of Fashion Design, Technology, and Education' reveals that the average size of an American woman is now between a 16 to 18, which is an increase from 10-year-old data that indicated most women in the U.S. were a size 14. "I am hoping this will help nudge the fashion industry to seriously consider expanding their sizes," said study author Deborah Christel, Ph.D. LOL...  But you don't make the connection between larger sizes of humans overall and obesity? You don't hope that the results of the 'study' you did encourage people to start eating better and exercising more and you know, stop being obese? You just hope the multi billion dollar fashion industry changes its ways... er, um, sizes. Because... feelings? I mean, anyone who says they can't find clothing in their size is forgetting to tell you the whole story, leaving out key factors like: can't find clothing in their price range, can...

Kevin Hart has said what every normal person feels/believes...

As I sit here in my pajamas, trying to finish eating cold oatmeal and drink cold coffee, with my 3 month old daughter fussing at my side- the little dictator that she is- I say to myself, "Wow, if only 20-year-old me could see me now". What do I mean when I say that? I mean I was pretty much hell on wheels until I was 28. A hot mess for too long. In no way a role model or even proud of myself for .... anything really. I didn't speak eloquently or smartly, I was often not a respectful person towards other, I was probably down right insensitive. And I was kinda a tramp. Not exactly the kind of person you'd want around kids or even to take home to meet Mom and Grandma. But, hey- PEOPLE CHANGE. In the words of Kevin Hart: "   If you don't believe that people change, grow, evolve as they get older, I don't know what to tell you. If you want to hold people in a position where they always have to justify or explain their past, then do you."   Can we all...
