Our Governor's Perverted Side (w/ Edits)

Today I am thankful for decorum.

I am disgusted that governor lacks it*.

He posted this stupid meme to Facebook.

Over the past 35 years, I've spent a lot of time advocating for the LGBTQIA+ population.

One of the hardest stereotypes to overcome is the thought that people in the LGBT community are perverts that want to influence our children to become sexually provocative and active at an early age.

This bullshit doesn't help.  It sets the movement back.

If the governor's husband posts it - it's cute.

If he posts it publically, it's disgusting just due to his station in life.

*****

Most of what I write here about myself is gossip.  It's just shit people say about me (which makes it hard when I hear competing gossip because it's hard for me to decide what to post).

The latest gossip is that I'm an asexual prude- If so, I would find this type of thing gross. 

Other people say that my type are big burly black guys (which could be true because most of my favorite bass players are big, burly black guys...... as was the detective who rescued me..... and my gorgeous neighbor who helps me carry in my heavy bags of garden soil....and the hot guy who flirts with me in traffic.....sigh.....) 

It doesn't really matter because I have absolutely no time to date anyone.  I guess asexual is the most honest of the gossip.

*****

I can share the gossip about my personality in the hopes of illustrating a point. 

I have a RN coworker who says that she can't watch Rose in the Titanic without thinking of me because I'm too prim and proper in my dress, speech and mannerisms.  I work in the capacity of a counselor at this job (and I'm not above calling assholes rude).

As an aside - Yes, when I was 17, I might have jumped if I didn't have a sweet young man try to save me.  I'm probably the stuff of his nightmares now. When I see him, I don't know if I should thank him or beg his forgiveness.  My M.O. is to run away. Yeah.....I was a mess back then....and maybe now, too.  Only a messy person would take on so much, huh?

That would be where this comparison would end.  

When I debate politicians and am hauled in for eight hour depositions with their lawyers, I've been told I act like Brenda Leigh Johnson.




To be fair, I dress more like her than I act like her.  I do have a lot of fun catching asshats in lies and embarrassing them for it.  I strive to be polite - it's easier to intimidate with a smile than by cursing and screaming.

I've had friends compare me to The Mentalist.



My favorite comparison came from a fellow musician.  He thought Michael Steele (the red haired bass player in the black hat) resembled me.  Yes, I often wear a hat just like that.

 

Truth be told, we see what we want to see in others.  I don't think I'm anything like any of these people and/or characters.

If I am, it is only because we have various roles during our daily lives and they may be projecting the role of these people/characters on to me.  What is appropriate in one role, really isn't appropriate in others.

I wouldn't bring Charlie (my Fender Precision) to city hall or my hypnosis practice (but maybe to a rehab center so I could jam with the patients).  I wouldn't mess with my fellow musicians' or activists' minds (unless they had problems with stage fright or inconvenient cigarette cravings).  I wouldn't let my freak flag fly when I'm acting in the role of political activist or counselor - maybe if I were on stage in a band and there were no cameras - never mind - it's sexier to save it for someone who really wants to see it.

Context is key.  It would be wise for our Governor to understand that.

*****

I'm not sure if I resemble anyone famous.  Seriously..... When I modeled, I was told I looked like Susan Sarandon.  Now....I think I look like a bright orange bowling ball.

Seriously, I can't think of an old, bitchy, overweight, out of shape mesmerist who doesn't practice her guitar enough.

Perhaps it's best just to understand the main point of my crazy ramblings.  Context is important.
Colorado's governor shouldn't act like a twelve year old boy in public if he wants disenfranchised libertarians to vote for him.

Ugh!

Don't make the old, fat mesmerist jump back into activism.


Love ya,

S.

P.S.  If you want to call me a homophobe, be mindful of whom I worship.  Apollon and Artemis would not smile upon someone non-accepting of homosexuality.  Then again, Zeus and Hermes were known to disguise themselves as homeless beggars to test if people were worthy of their gifts - most Democratic and Republican politicians would fail that test (but that's another blog post for another day....asshats….most of our politicians are immature asshats).



*NEXT DAY EDIT:  Apparently my city councilwoman lacks decorum, too.  I don't think I need many signatures to challenge her.  In doing so, I'd be keeping a promise I made in 2011 and again in 2017.

Geesh!  I'd rather spend my time helping the community with other pursuits.

I know Ms. Coombs doesn't care about homeless people (black, white, red, yellow or brown) because she ignores me when I try to tell her what is going on and spin it to her political advantage.

Maybe....the old crone needs to come down to city hall and teach the youngins a thing about respect and decorum.  We can get more attention using civilized language than we can trying to act like teenage hooligans.

Grow up!!!





Edit 06/11/20 -

On the bright side, Governor Polis has stopped posting illustrations of weenies.  His mask posts have become much more professional*.

Sadly, he is now deleting comments from the governor's official Facebook page that he doesn't agree with.  I'll go to post a journal article on a misguided comment and it'll be gone.  This has happened so much that I know his social media team is deleting comments.

I'm not voting for Polis.  If he's afraid of the opinions of the electorate, he's a coward.  There's only one thing I hate more than an asshole and that is a coward masquerading as a leader.

And he hasn't read the CDC guidelines regarding masks.  He totally forgets the part about people unable to breathe in masks and that they are not recommended during heavy exercise.

*It strikes me as sad that Aurora cops killed a kid for wearing a mask in the summer last year.  I'm happy his family is finally getting a voice.  I'm sickened by the details that are leaking out.

So -

I'm giving thought into going back into political activism.

It's just difficult because

I hate conservatives due to their social policies.

I hate democrats due to their economic policies.

I'm an equal opportunity hater and there are times when I wonder how I can find a following.

The truth is that I'm sure I can find a following because I'm going to place money on the fact that there are thousands of disgusted people out there....just like me.

If I can only find out who likes to be interviewed by the press, I'll have it made.

Edit 8:20pm 07/16/20 - a man just drove by my house to report that the Aurora Police Department threatened our city councilwoman (listed above).  He then said something about hacking, monitoring and email. 

Yes, the Aurora Police Dept will harass political candidates but I never figured out if they were following orders from other City Councilpeople, the City Manager or the Police union.

The bitch is back.  I'm calling a lawyer in the morning but a good activist holds her cards to her vest.

Love ya,

S.

That Weird Feeling When All Your Wishes Seem to Come True (w/ edit)

Today I am confused yet thankful for some of the bizarre changes that have happened in the past three months. 

I have a political wish list.  I figured that these are just thing that I'd never see happen in my lifetime.

There was no way that I would ever believe that the Democrats would fulfill my list.  I would tell myself that, should the politicians do these things on their own, I would be able to focus my energy on counseling addicts rather than play politics. 

Lo' and behold - here we are....

1.  End the fight against the second amendment:  Up until now, the liberals have been painting guns as the enemy of the state.  They've eaten into our second amendment rights by claiming that the police are always going to be there to protect us.  Now, we are seeing the opposite.

Many of my liberal friends are stocking up on guns and ammo.....weird, eh? 

2. Defund the police department:  I've always threatened to go after tax hikes to support the police department upon hearing of another death at the hands of the local cops.  Sadly, most of the people who die are minorities.  One of my foster brothers was shot by the police in my home town ten years ago because he was near a drug deal gone wrong.  To tell the truth about it, many people in my circle have known someone to have either been railroaded or murdered by a Denver area police department.

3. End the tax on plastic/paper bags:  In this age of Covid19, we are being told NOT to bring our reusable plastic bags in to the grocery stores due to possible transmission of the virus.  Many municipalities (including Denver and Boulder) are still taxing plastic and paper bags.  I suspect that this will have to end soon.  My main issue with this tax is that it is a municipal money grab that unfairly targets the poor and elderly - people who cannot afford to invest in good quality reusable bags.

4. Getting Cops out of Public Schools:  I've had a long history of railing against police officers in public schools as they often use military type tactics to abuse kids for statutory (age related) infractions (e.g. talking back to teachers).  Sadly, many of the children they maimeand injure are minorities.

I've got just chewed out by a Republican leader for stating that "not all cops are institutions of justice."   She's the one who called me all sorts of names for helping the homeless.

You want to know why the Democrats control Colorado?  It's people like her. All they do is bitch and drive the real activists away.

She also compared me to, Gladys Kravitz, the lady who spied on Samantha in the old TV series Bewitched.

She was upset that my friends and I were trying to stop Lisby and the other Republicans from harassing and stealing the belongings of the homeless.  Sadly, Lisby and his Republican buddies bitched so much that CDOT stole all of the belongings of the homeless.

Yeah....maybe I should test a theory with another wish.  Let me explain.....

Little does this Republican mouthpiece know - I'm more like Endora - lol!  Well...except that I allegedly have 460 Djinn.  In the past, I doubted they were real....but now that I've been wearing one of the rings for the past three months, the irrational side of my psyche is wondering about that.

 Yes, it's probably just a coincidence.

I'll test the theory on Mr. Lisby.  Usually, I just wish for homes for the homeless.  That typically comes true - with a lot of work on the part of my friends.

Maybe I should be a little less kind?

Moving on.....


5. Educational Options for Students:  We are finally seeing schools embrace distance learning which will help families maximize the usage of their students' time and energy.  It will also save taxpayers money while keeping many kiddos safe from the bullying that permeates educational indoctrination centers.

Things are going crazy.

This is probably just a dream.  I'll wake up and find that we are still living in the same tax and spend drudgery.

Polis is spending so much money, that I'm sure he is going to have to lead a charge against TABOR to fund all his excess.

Soon I'll have to decide if I want to join the fight to save TABOR.

I may bow out if I have to deal with a ton of snarky Republican bitches who can't reason their way out of a box.

I guess, at the very least, Siegfred can cast a taxpayer protection spell.

Love ya,

S.

P.S.  The state house is looking at a bill to reign in abusive police officers.  I have a site dedicated to recalling the sponsor.  I put it up after she gutted Colorado's gun laws.

If she wins this fight and the bill has real teeth - I'll take the site down.

Edit 06/10/20 : Well, my irrational belief in the djinn was thwarted.  I don't think my wish for Lisby came true.  To my knowledge no one in Aurora has won an all expense 5-year trip to Tahiti.

At least I still have my sense of humor.

EDIT 06/11/20


This is the song I sing when I'm pissed off at idiots who have no clue how powerful average old ladies can be.  I'll post the Rhianna song I sing when the cops make me laugh when they threaten me with handcuffs below. 


Well, my joy over the Democrats fizzled.

Now, they're pushing more gun control.

They want to raise taxes (so the baggie tax stays) and now they're taxing people $200 for not wearing masks.  A fine is a fee is a tax.  The mask fine is nothing but a free-thinker tax.

Shit - am I the only person who studied immunology in grad school?  No, I can't be.  Why is everyone else staying silent?  I

Probably because of the asshat paid online trolls and protesters who harass everyone and try to humiliate them publicly to shut them down. 

Welcome to politics in 2020.....


Sigh....

The talk of defunding the police department has fizzled and the law that they put forth and passed with the intention of holding bad cops accountable was so watered down that it has absolutely no teeth.

The recall site stays up. There will be a day when I feel the need to publicize it. She'll do something stupid that'll warrant a recall.  That is the nature of idiots.

Last night, I got into an argument with an Aurora Paramedic who thinks I don't know shit about addiction because I'm not a medical doctor.  He defended their ability to shoot up compliant citizens with brown skin with Ketamine at the urging of a police officer.  They are using a fake diagnosis called "excited delirium" to justify sedating these people with a horse tranquilizer.  This particular drug is known to cause tachycardia and death.

He's not an MD.  He shouldn't be injecting people with a controlled substance.

It is unsafe.  Given that police officers are pretending to be psychiatrists in order medicate them for what I would consider a diagnosis of the criminal justice system, the practice needs stopped.

I wonder how many of the people of color Aurora cops have killed in the past two years were shot up with Special K?

How did this happen?

The idiotic state of Colorado gave Aurora a waiver so that they could flout the law disallowing the practice.  They started injecting citizens in January 2019 during contacts with the police.

I'm pissed.

That's the problem with city employed trolls - all it takes is one idiotic, nasty asshat to talk to someone with a barely familiar name to wake up a sleeping activist.

Right now, I'm thinking hard about starting another Political Action Committee.  Why allow the dolts to increase our taxes to fund these atrocities?

If harassing citizens is the only thinking the police and fire unions are going to do about stopping  the murder of people of color in my town - I'll take them on.

I really don't give a shit anymore.

I know the games.

I'm getting my lawn manicured in anticipation of seeing my code enforcement buddy again.  I'm not married or dating.  My kids are grown.  Who the hell are the police going to harass now to try to shut me down?

I'm thinking of acronyms. I liked CRAG (reminds me an angry, jagged rock) but I don't want to use that again.  Maybe if I ponder it, something better will come to mind.

The only issue is that if I start a PAC or run for office, I can't work in addiction counseling or as a psychotherapist anymore.  It's a conflict of interest....

Unless I can find someone else to deal with the press.

The Aurora police murdered someone else recently.

I've had about as much as I can stand.  It's easier to do something than to sit and stew (or cast black magick spells - lol).

Yeah - I probably should paint the images of the cops and ems that were present when Elijah Mcclain was murdered.  I've been thinking of painting them as demons encircling an angel.

Imagine my irritation when I learned that the Aurora Cops recently did the exact same thing to another man of color named Elijah.  They're all over the internet leaving comments justifying their bad behavior.

Enough is enough.

The problem is the blue wall of silence.  The majority of good cops sit around and protect the minority of narcissistic devils who cause the real problem.  I also blame these good ol' boys for the fact that domestic violence victims rarely get police reports.

That's another blog post for another day.

*****

Sorry for the typos - I found out that I need bifocals yesterday.  I pick up my new glasses tomorrow.

It'll be nice to be able to finally see what I'm typing.

*****

Oh, as promised:

I wonder how it really appears when an aging asexual tries to act sexy.  I'm sure it's comedic.  It caused one threatening cop to run away from me (or maybe it was the pink baseball bat I grabbed or the Latin curse I uttered).  Sometimes it pays to act like a lunatic when someone in uniform breaks into your home on an unofficial basis.     


Since most of the threatening cops I encounter are far much young than I, this song is effective because it grosses them out!

There was a poor Aurora cop who had the misfortune of violating my fourth amendment rights by entering my home without a warrant after I took a shower …well....he's probably blind now from the sight.   The city had me deposed for 8 hours the next day because my ex-husband was suing them 

That was fun.  Apparently, they're intimidated by covert hypnotists.

Who knew?

I was so amused that I actually put together a course on covert hypnosis to teach the skills to my fellow activists in this town.  Then, my ex-husband saw how much the harassment by the local cops bothered me and stepped up his stalking behavior.

The City of Aurora is corrupt as hell.  The last time I jumped into politics it was because they harassed my family and arrested a rape victim who was assaulted in police custody.  Her crime?  She said the word "cunt" and the city attorney wanted to intimidate her into not suing the city failing in their duty to care.

Verbal assault on an officer is not a thing.

Shit - I need to get back to work.  I betcha I still can't go to a real city council meeting to remind that I'm watching them.  I'm sure they've got everything shut down due to Covid.

Cowards!!  Make that uneducated cowards.  Immunity plays a role in the development of disease.  I don't hear the CDC or the ballless politicians talk about that.

Covid is just an excuse for the government to take more control over our lives.

That is another story for another day.

Politicians are like toddlers.  They can cause a lot of havoc if you turn your back on them for even a second. 

Ugh!!

Love ya,

S.
