Java Sweet and Hot

Coffee is good and good for you. Hallelujah! I am celebrating with a cup of Poor Richard's blend coffee from Reading Terminal Market. Life is good.

I was so happy to read this article today. How much do we love coffee? We love coffee so much that we write songs about coffee. Coffee songs below.

Good to know that our love for that first cup in the morning is not in vain. And that drinking another two or three cups may have health benefits.

Why Coffee Is Good for You
Kris Gunnars, Authority Nutrition

It is more than just dark-colored liquid with caffeine. Coffee actually contains hundreds of different compounds, some of which have important health benefits.

Several massive studies have now shown that the people who drink the most coffee live longer and have a reduced risk of diseases like Alzheimer’s and diabetes. Read more ...

The SCOTUS went SHAZAM! It is now like 1945.

Legislatures must not practice medicine. Practicing medicine without a license is a crime.

Rage. I have it. It's not a good thing for a bipolar person. Not good for me. Not good for others.


The Mother Compelled need not include you in her family or her home. She does not need to feed you or fuck you or befriend you.

Well, say you, "Feminazi, we will pass a law."

How much success did the government have the last time you criminalized abortion? Or drugs? We have checking accounts now. And we vote.


Abortion was advertised in newspapers in Colonial America before women could vote. No one thought childbirth was in anyone's charge but the pregnant person and the midwife. Now, we have put Justice Alito in charge of the American family. 

No more one and done, for ye may die. That cruelty is the Catholic way. Yes, I am a Roman Catholic. I give thanks to Uncle Joe Biden. This is the century in which the Roman Catholic Church will stop maiming and killing Women, Children, and other Odd Citizens. We sane Catholics are seeing to it.

Hemorrhage and sepsis in childbirth and illegal abortion are three major causes of maternal mortality worldwide. Abortion is safer than gestating to term. You could end up being the Mama, Lovebug.

This is not the 50s. Or even the 60s. Women will have sex with each other and help each other. You will be living in the modern equivalent of the Palace Flophouse and Grille. Your biggest Saturday night will be two quarts of beer and a $50.00 tumble at Dora's Bear Flag. *

Talk about suckers carrying "I am stupid" signs. They will put your kid, the one you do not know and you never lived with, to work at age twelve. Sarah Huckafuck has got the pilot program working.

Go ahead and insurrect, you "pussy ass bitches," ** on behalf of Don Con thug and a party who despise you. See what happens. Women will save The Democracy again. ***

Just throw money. No Quarters.

Trump in Hell

This DOG is one of a series of doggerel poems. The working title is Saga of Bonespurs the Brave.

POOR RATS

Trump has become a Republican fetish.

They defend him with such industry and relish.

Republicans seem to think

Ship GOP will sink

When we all grok their reign has been Hellish.

Truth is the Most Benevolent and Powerful Force in the Universe


“A man who lies to himself and believes his own lies becomes unable to recognize truth, either in himself or in anyone else, and he ends up losing respect for himself and for others. When he has no respect for anyone, he can no longer love, and in him, he yields to his impulses, indulges in the lowest form of pleasure, and behaves in the end like an animal in satisfying his vices. And it all comes from lying — to others and to yourself.”

― Fyodor Dostoyevsky

 Portrait by Vasily Perov c. 1872

This morning I woke up feeling compelled to share this thought. We currently have a powerful example of such a person in front of us.

Some Members of the Society of the Friends of Jesus (Quakers) are atheists or agnostics. Some refer to GOD as The Truth.

I never did give them hell. I just told the truth, and they thought it was hell.”

― Harry S. Truman
