Home Life

I was so close to cumming.

I guess I misunderstood when Pop said he would be going to Kay's for the day and night to get her groceries. I turned today into a wank day and was quite enjoying myself, until I was surprised by Pop's return home.

Oh, I cleared up everything in time. This domestic episode wasn't that humiliating. True, I was unaccountably sweaty and out of sorts, as though I had been running a marathon, but nothing too bad.

It's just that I didn't get my release, and I was in the middle of a particularly scorching video. And I have to live with the fact that I am 52 years old and still live this shit, like a high school teenager who still cannot get dates. Of course, this is never going to change. It's too late to hope that I might just be a late bloomer. No more blooming. It's just the fact that I never did get to bloom.

Ann Coulter

Trump's proposes to put an end to making immigration a lottery. Ann Coulter tweets, mocking the old policy, "Isn't that how Kate Upton picks her boyfriends? She has a LOTTERY! Why shouldn't losers have as much of a chance as a professional athlete?

GOP

Bill Kristol tweets, "We will fight Bannon for control of the Republican Party. And if we lose the party, we will fight for the country."

I'm thinking: the party of Bannon & Trump and the party of Reagan? ... it's kind of a subtle difference really. Bannon and Trump are just more out front about white supremacy. The most significant difference, I suppose, is that Reagan had more respect for expertise and professional competence, and the Republicans of the Reagan and Bush stripe were more wary of stirring up controversy. Operationally, I guess it is a significant difference, but it is more in terms of means than ends.

One interesting issue, though, is how seriously should we take Bannon's economic populism. If he is serious about securing the economic interests of common white folks, then that would be a big difference with Reaganesque mainstream Republicanism, which is more of a Wall Street party. However, even if Bannon is serious about economic populism, it seems fairly clear that Trump is not. In terms of class interests, Trump is apparently playing the same old con that the Republicans have been playing since the 80s - faking the depth and breadth of their populism to further enrich the top one or two percent.
