#DemocraticDope, the game by Bartleby TDV

I’m a little too serious-minded and repressed for “games,” but I recognize when such frivolity may be in order.

Add booze and the fun quotient is multiplied on orders of ten. Feel free to add alcohol to my game. In fact, I would suggest it, even if you’re not playing.

Your liver will thank me.

I played earlier, a test run if you will. Joe Biden was my first.

Together, we shall write an American story of hope, not fear. Of unity, not division. Of light, not darkness.

I took his Tweet and…

#DemocraticDope
Together, we shall write an American story of DOPE, not fear. Of unity, not division. Of light, not darkness.

That’s it. A very simple game, but Democrats, being the party of virtue mega-dosing and lascivious platitudes, might turn the basic into a wretched challenge.

Play ball.

Linkroll

Even my favorite blogs aren’t always stellar…I know this, because I know my own blog. Many of my favorite posts are from blogs I don’t read regularly. With this in mind, I’ve decided upon a “Linkroll” approach. A rotating list of my favorite 10 posts/articles at any one time.

- - Profiles In Journalistic Courage: Marlow Stern of the Daily Beast (Michael Tracey, another brainily prolific Substack venture; if this post was any drier we’d call it Sahara)
  - Why 2007 was the worst year for the internet – An analysis of why the internet has declined since 2007(Kiwi Farms, timeless post from 2019; are reports of the internet’s death exaggerated?
  - The Latino vote (The Week, “LatinX” is utter BS and the gender divide is turbocharged in American Hispanic culture)
  - What is “Male Idiot Theory”? (Typical male-bashing from Medium. A light, BS piece which completely overlooks simple truths in favor of a Woke conclusion. The last paragraph epitomizes that mentality)
  - Origin of Covid — Following the Clues (Nicholas Wade’s assiduous examination of COVID’s origins, leaning heavily toward the lab leak theory. Mad scientists under the spell of money and ego might be responsible for 3,000,000 deaths. Anthony Fauci looking more like a weasel).
  - Political And Media Class Solemnly Commemorates Six Months Of Overwrought Whining About January 6 (Michael Tracey, again. Seems I can’t get enough of his ironic deconstructions. This piece expresses everything I feel about the January 6 petit-insurrection in Washington. The non-event has been manhandled by the Left and its media enablers into an epic national threat comparable to Pearl Harbor or 9/11).
  - The Covered-Up Crimes of Vaccine-maker Pfizer – Just Another “Too-Big-to-Fail” American Corporation (The real scandal is not 5G waves or prions or light-sensitive lipids or whatever else it is the rabid anti-vax crowd screams about COVID vaccines. It’s the money, the business, the moneyed attack on our bodies by corporations who have no problem throwing us into the lab rat cage as long as they can get business flowing again).
