AGING DISGRACEFULLY

I'M BAAAACK

Honestly! You take a little vacation from the internet, and people start writing your obituary. The truth is, I decided that, as a diva of a certain age, it was time to step away from Social Media Society and explore the mythical "World Outside." Though my dance card was always full while I was attending the grand galas on Twitter/X, Instagram, and Threads, I found something was missing in my life. The medical community refers to it as "fresh air." So, as I inhale, let me regale you with wondrous tales of Life Beyond the Valley of the Smart Phones.  

Until we meet again, my love.

THE FUNNY PAPERS: The Week In Memes: November 11-17 Edition

This was a week of  drops - dropping gas prices, dropping inflation rates, dropping travel delays, and dropping ethics in Congress. War continues in the Middle East; Joe Manchin will not run again for his Senate seat; some Trump or other took the witness stand; and Marjory Taylor Green said something stupid. Naturally, the internet was noisy about all the goings on. Let’s check it out!

I take a two week vacation, and the world goes crazy! The Hamas/Israel clash continues, the Republicans are in disarray, Trump has been gagged, and Taylor and Travis are adorable. Sadly, we lost the lovely Suzanne Somers to breast cancer. Join me as we discover what the social medias were up to this week. 

THE FUNNY PAPERS: The Week In Memes: September 23-29 Edition

 This week, we are sad at the passing of the  oldest sitting member of the Senate,  Dianne Feinstein.  She was 90 years old and still performing her Congressional duties just the day before. Meanwhile, McCarthy & Co are threatening to shut down the US government while also trying to draw up articles of impeachment against President Biden.  New York is victim to the latest weather disaster. There was lots of sports ball. And we say goodbye to September. Let’s see what the internet was up to. 

THE FUNNY PAPERS: The Week In Memes: September 9-15 Edition

This week brought some crazy football shenanigans with Cincinnati Bengals quarterback, Joe Burrows, not living up to his “highest paid contract in history” with a loss to the beleaguered Cleveland Browns. The oft-dismissed Detroit Lions beat the reigning Super Bowl champions, the Kansas City Chiefs. Then, the anticipated arrival of Aaron Rogers on the NY Jets was a bust - literally. More climate disaster as floods roared through Libya, killing tens of thousands of people. In the US, we commemorated 9/11, still grateful it hasn’t turned into a day of mattress sales. The internet was out in full force with all the news. Let’s check in.
