“Enough Idiocy”

Perhaps down the road we’ll look super bad
Cuz it might cause problems we hadn’t had.
But for now the vax is our best way out
Yet still people complain, they scream and shout.
They take shots for everything, like the flu
Then insist that this one is bad for you.

Force of nature

It can hardly come as a big surprise

That humans yearn to see the skies

And would prefer to spend most of their days

In a natural place with the sun’s golden rays.

Businesses are now adopting the trend

Just to retain their talent, in the end.

Seymour… not

However appealing the rule may have been

It’s truly atrocious and likely a sin

That the governing body of a sports league

Mandated such rules with no hint of fatigue.

Finally they realize, after a law suit

Mandating bikinis,  it’s not so cute.

Basic Instinct

Access to water is quickly decreasing

But demand for it is simply unceasing.

Economic development and climate change

Are making the situation strange.

As population booms and need expands

Wars will be fought for all the wetlands.

Trick, I guess…

Oh how cruel the weary world can be

When even a little ghost can see

The Grinch of Halloween rearing its head

And spreading its special form of dread.

“No costumes for you!” it yelled with great pride,

And then we watched as the Supply Chain died.

Unintended Consequences

You have to admit it’s an interesting stat…

And yes there are holes right off the bat.

But even controlling for self-selection

This data provides quite the complexion.

Perhaps some good can emerge from it all

If the vax also helps health overall.

Cowardice

The evil of Facebook gives no relief,

It’s about appearances not belief.

From people posting about their swell life

Causing FOMO and emotional strife

To its execs who care much more about

Seeming moral but not acting it out.

I’ll Say

“Unreal” is exactly the word for it!

There’s a fact out there, you can’t ignore it…

These guys are CHEATERS and caught redhanded

Even they themselves are pretty candid.

Yet they play on with no conequences.

It truly defies all moral senses.

Now will you listen?

It’s hard to listen to crazy shrieking,

Or any nutcase when one is speaking,

Espousing views contrary to your own

So I get why the far right will just groan

About global warming and its mention.

But on THIS topic they’ll pay attention…

To Catch a Thief

We know it’s not true that crime doesn’t pay

So it’s kind of fun to have a good day

When the bad guys are caught, doing their thing

And their own stupidity causes the sting.

This big bad thug snatched a reporter’s cell

That was live broadcasting – it didn’t end well!
