I Believe… [Booooooooobs….]

…that there is a disconnect between the culture of #MeToo and the culture of bikini model influencers and I’d elucidate but my brain is addled by all the boooooooobs…

I Believe… [The Social Media Blackout AI]

I believe… that Facebook and Twitter should have an AI that prevents the posting of false information, rebukes bullying of any sort, and immediately deletes complaints of persecution. In an instant social media would be rid of Trump, Fox News, twenty-year-old women of all races, and the Woke.

I Believe… [How Many Passwords Must I Remember?]

…that if Windows was a more secure platform you wouldn’t have to change your fucking work passwords so goddamned often.

I Believe… [Both Can Be Right]

…that Soleimani was a terrorist monster who deserved to be killed and Trumpenstein is a horrible man deserving of impeachment and removal from office. Both can be true so quit bending yourself into pretzels in existential crisis.

I Believe… [The Ladder of Secular Religiosity]

I believe… that if you believe it is the System fueled by Evil Other People that is the cause for your lousy lot in life you have started on the first rung of the Ladder of Secular Religiosity. Until you realize the System is you and your myriad of interconnected choices, get ready for the zealotry ride of your life.

I Believe… [Screaming at Spiders Doesn’t Get Them Out of the House]

I believe… that idealism and passion aren’t solutions. Without them, solutions cannot be created but alone they represent the kind of pointless emotional response that screaming at a spider does.

I Believe… [Christmas 2019]

I believe… that the older you get, the less you want (unless it’s pharmaceuticals and sleep and then you want it all). Do your AARP family member a solid and gift them generic drugs from Canada and room for a lot of naps this holiday season.

I Believe… [“Tell Your Truth” To Avoid “Telling THE Truth”]

…that “telling your truth” is merely giving your opinion with the safeguard of eliminating any challenge to it.

I Believe… [The Difference Between ‘Normal’ and ‘Ordinary’]

I believe… that cisgender is not a synonym for normal but a synonym for ordinary. Thus, those outside of the ordinary are naturally extraordinary rather than abnormal. Reframe things and we all win.

I Believe… [Chaos Is Less Fun Than Revolution]

…that those who seek revolution would be wise to have some sort of vision of what will take the place of the system destroyed. Without that vision, the house burns down and chaos reigns. Sounds good until you have to face chaos.

I Believe… [The Great Human Leveler]

…that without regard for political ideology, activist dogma, religious belief or sexual identity, we are all leveled human by the flu.

I Believe... [No New Pants]

…that I no longer care so much about my diet or exercise so much as I just don’t want to have to buy new pants.

I Believe… [Fostering Change Isn’t a Demand]

…that you can inspire someone to change. You can educate someone toward change. You can support someone as they change. You cannot make someone change, and all your efforts to do so, being met with failure, are the cause of your great outrage.

I Believe… [Basic, Average White Guy]

…that when people tell you you look like Al Franken, Brad Pitt, Tim Allen, John Ham’s drunk cousin, and John Wick (Keanu Reeves), it is established fact that you are the most basic, average looking white guy on the Strip.

The Minutes of Our Last Meeting Dresses Up as Literate Ape for Halloween

There was blood everywhere because, even though I am a vampire, I am a klutz.

I Believe… [Political Misspelling is Dumb]

…that when I see you spell women “womxn “ and folks “folx” and white “yt,” wyte,” or “vvhite” your overwhelming virtue signaling blares so loudly that I simply can’t hear you for the noise. You’re only communicating to your trybe.

I Believe... [Insurance is Only an Entry Fee]

…that insurance is no more than the membership fee for entering a doctor’s office. It is not actually insurance against catastrophe but a payment to be allowed in the room.

I Believe... [Baby Boomers With a Christian Bale Growl]

…that nothing is more true about the Baby Boomer generation than the truth about The Dark Knight: “You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.” Remember that Batman was always the hero.

I Believe... [The Quixote Zone]

…that we have now entered the Quixote Zone when old men declaring they are knights, reality stars declaring they are presidents, and the very declaration that you are defined by your belief in your own, specific reality contrary to every indicator otherwise is normal.

I Believe... [Probst for President]

…that if I really wanted a reality TV star to be president, it would be Jeff Probst of Survivor.
