I have to rant about something.

It’s Halloween time which means it’s time to ban costumes.

And Elon Musk arrives at the Twitter headquarters and there are plenty of cries and gnashing of teeth.

The Rant

One of my grandchildren is being tested for ADHD. He’s one year old.

Let me tell you what’s going to happen:

• He’s going to take the test.
• He’s going to found to have ADHD.
• They’re going to put him on Ritalin.
• He’s going to end up a slobbering zombie.

Leave the kids alone!

Kamalaisms

We cannot go a day with stupid things being said by the White House.

Here is Joe Biden talking about the economy and he just goes off on the size of airplane seats and how it hurts the poor and black people.

You have to give the guy a break. He’s old and senile and probably isn’t going to be President much longer.

Luckily, we have Kamala Harris waiting in the wings and she loves yellow school buses!

God help us.

Luckily, she did say something far more intelligent a little later in her speech.

I lied. This was a stupid statement too.

Yes, that’s why are kids are dumb. Diesel fueled buses.

Tis the Season

It’s Halloween next week which means we have to start banning Halloween costumes. Fox News released an article on the hot new costumes that are going to be banned. Let’s go over them.

• The Jeffry Dahmer costume.
  • Ever since the release of “Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story,” viewers of the MA-rated drama streaming on Netflix have been able to “portray” the serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer by purchasing lookalike costumes on eBay and through other online marketplaces.
  • eBay banned sales of Dahmer “costumes” and/or accessories this week.
  • “These items are banned on eBay and are being removed under our ‘Violence and Violent Criminal Policy,’” an eBay spokesperson told Fox News Digital on Wednesday in an emailed statement.
  • Simone Biles tweeted: im just gon go head and say it, put the jeffrey dahmer costumes back in the closet. we ain’t having it!!!!!!
• “Squid Game” costumes were said to be popular after the show’s release on Netflix, according to several reports.
  • The Fayetteville-Manlius School District, located in central New York State, added the costumes to the list of prohibited costumes, since some students were said to be playing their own version of “Squid Game” on the playground.
• In 2016 the creepy clown craze had retailers such as Target pulling clown masks from its 1,800 stores and online shopping site.
  • That same year, New Haven Public School District in New Haven, Connecticut, banned clown costumes and any “symbols of terror” amid Halloween.
• Social media users and activists sounded off in 2020 after a costume called the “WW2 Evacuee Girl Costume” went on sale.
  • Some people on Twitter called it an “Anne Frank costume.”
  • Alexandra DeVitt, a spokesperson for the Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect based in New York, referred to the costume as “offensive” and said that it “trivializes her suffering.”
  • The costume is not that bad. It is a typical German child’s clothing from the time period mad up of a green dress, a beret and a purse. If they changed the name it probably wouldn’t be a big deal.
  • Target has pulled the costume but it is available on eBay and Amazon.
• And, of course, anything that culturally appropriating or insensitive including:
  • Geisha costumes.
  • Indian costumes.
  • Sexy Handmaid’s Tales costumes.
  •  Will Smith/Chris Rock slap costumes (especially if you’re white).
  • Queen Elizabeth costumes (too soon).
  • Transphobic costumes.
  • Monkey pox costumes.
  • Body shaming costumes.

So, happy Halloween!

The Takeover

Elon Musk is about to take over Twitter. Probably tomorrow.

He decided to go to the corporate headquarters and he did it in style. He was filmed, walking into the lobby, holding a bathroom sink. Not kidding. When he got closer to the camera, he said, “Let that sink in,” and laughed. He also changed his Twitter profile to “Chief Twit”.

This guy is the ultimate troll. That’s worth $250 billion!

Well, he’s there for a reason. He’s going to can 75% of the company. Facebook is thrilled about it because they are recruiting all the former Twitter employees. Not sure that’s a great idea. Twitter hasn’t made a profit in ten years.

Of course, the Left is flipping out.

Juliette Kayyem tweeted:

Cruel? Really?

I don’t know who this broad is but she’s a blue check on Twitter. I’m hoping I can become a blue check on Twitter that no one knows.

The New York Times and Washington Post is bashing Musk for allowing free speech.

Elon Musk wrote a letter to advertisers:

I wanted to reach out personally to share my motivation in acquiring Twitter. There has been much speculation about why I bought Twitter and what I think about advertising. Most of it has been wrong.

The reason I acquired Twitter is because it is important to the future of civilization to have a common digital town square, where a wide range of beliefs can be debated in a healthy manner, without resorting to violence. There is currently great danger that social media will splinter into far right wing and far left wing echo chambers that generate more hate and divide our society.

In the relentless pursuit of clicks, much of traditional media has fueled and catered to those polarized extremes, as they believe that is what brings in the money, but, in doing so, the opportunity for dialogue is lost.

That is why I bought Twitter. I didn’t do it because it would be easy. I didn’t do it to make more money. I did it to try to help humanity, whom I love. And I do so with humility, recognizing that failure in pursuing this goal, despite our best efforts, is a very real possibility.

That said, Twitter obviously cannot become a free-for-all hellscape, where anything can be said with no consequences! In addition to adhering to the laws of the land, our platform must be warm and welcoming to all, where you can choose your desired experience according to your preferences, just as you can choose, for example, to see movies or play video games ranging from all ages to mature.

I also very much believe that advertising, when done right, can delight, entertain and inform you; it can show you a service or product or medical treatment that you never knew existed, but is right for you. For this to be true, it is essential to show Twitter users advertising that is as relevant as possible to their needs. Low relevancy ads are spam, but highly relevant ads are actually content!

Fundamentally, Twitter aspires to be the most respected advertising platform in the world that strengthens your brand and grows your enterprise. To everyone who has partnered with us, I thank you. Let us build something extraordinary together.

Reality Always Wins

Reality always wins. Ideology will always lose in the end, no matter how much we scream about it. The climate “crisis” is an example of reality winning over ideology.

A German wind farm is being dismantled because there is a coal mine that needs to be expanded. Why? Because wind has a 25% efficiency and coal has a 90% efficiency. Winter is coming. It’s going to get cold, like 10 degrees. And Germany, listening to a 16-year-old, mentally deficient girl from Sweden, has cut off all other energy supplies and people are going to need heat to, you know, survive.

Reality always wins.

This Isn’t Free Speech

This story really bothers me because no one is talking about it.

According to Fox News:

The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) recently overturned the ruling of a French court that had fined and issued a jail sentence to a feminist who interrupted a Roman Catholic church service and “aborted” Jesus on the altar while topless.

Eloïse Bouton was bare-breasted and painted in pro-choice slogans all over her body when, in December 2013, she interrupted Christmas carols at Paris’ famous Madeleine church and protested the Catholic Church’s teachings against abortion by simulating an abortion of Jesus.

Wearing a crown of thorns to mock Jesus Christ and a blue veil to deride the Virgin Mary, Bouton carried pieces of ox livers to symbolize an aborted baby as she stood in front of the church altar and pretended to perform an “abortion” before urinating on the ground in front of the congregants.

I just want to point out this is completely evil. The article continues:

Written on Bouton’s body at the time was the French phrase “344 salope,” which translates to “344th slut,” in reference to an open letter of 343 French women who admitted to having an abortion in 1971.

The Ukrainian group Femen, which Bouton used to be a member of, later celebrated the act on social media, writing “Christmas is canceled!” and that “the holy mother Eloïse has just aborted the embryo of Jesus on the altar of the Madeleine.”

The church’s priest filed a legal complaint against Bouton, who was found guilty by a French court of an unlawful “sexual display.” She was sentenced to more than a month in prison and ordered to pay the church €2,000, a punishment France’s highest court upheld.

There are some things that really bother me about this story:

• Globalism. They have taken sovereignty from countries.
• This is definitely a crime. I get the free speech thing, but this isn’t free speech.
• The attack on religion. Globalism needs to eliminate religion so the global government become God.
• Finally, abortion is a religion and it is, literally, satanic.
