My Corner of the Universe

YOU WILL BE BLOCKED IF:

Your blog is BLANK/EMPTY

Your blog is old/you haven't posted in more than 2 months

You are pro-Trump/MAGA/Elon Musk/anti-DEI or any other right-wing BS

You are shilling something or some service

You claim to be a lottery winner who wants to share their winnings

You try to get me to invest money or join some financial scheme

You try to proselytize your particular religious/spiritual beliefs

You deny: the Holocaust; that Trump lost in 2020; that January 6 was an insurrection

You are anti-LGBTQIA+

You are looking for a "relationship"

You want to "hook up"

You are selling "content"

I REPEAT: YOU WILL BE BLOCKED!

PLEASE GO AWAY!

Other criteria will be added if and/or when it becomes necessary to do so.

My blog, so my rules.

If you don't like it, don't bother telling me. Just go somewhere else; Tumblr's a big place

Thank you for your attention to this matter. We now resume our regularly scheduled blog.

Inspired by the great blog @epicallyepicnerdery. Check him out!

I dunno about you, but that eye-patch is giving him more than a passing resemblance to Tiger Joe from Kaiketsu Lion-Maru and Fuun Lion-Maru.

ADDENDUM: Of course, Tumblr immediately slapped this post with a "potentially mature content" label.

"Uh oh!"

Guiron blowed up real good!

I would've been thrilled to see this as a kid!

Some states (e.g. New York) only permit voters registered in a party to vote in the primary for that party's candidate(s).

In California, everyone can vote in the primary, regardless of party affiliation (or lack thereof). The top two vote getters for a position in the primary then face off against each other in the general election in November.

This is a photo of my actual ballot. Among the 400 primary candidates for governor - okay, there's really only 60 (!!!) - are some imaginatively named, but nonetheless real, people: Barack Obama Shaw, Thunder Parley, and Livingforgod Andcountry Demott.
