Nobody Cares How Boomers Dress

Leave a comment

Older adults follow the unspoken expectation that they should remain inconspicuous by wearing subdued colors, practical fabrics, and outdated fashions. The young and vibrant are at the forefront with their primary colors and wild styles and the old and decrepit disappear into the background with their beige hues and conservative attire.

Old biddies wonder if they can get away with wearing a short skirt, and old codgers wonder if people will make fun of them if they wear skinny jeans.

The Burger King cashier is not puzzled by your retro clothes, but rather because he wonders if you will last until your burger and fries are ready.  

Boomers should forget about societal expectations and just wear whatever makes them feel comfortable. People rarely pay attention to how older folks dress. You can wear pajamas with the fly open, a sombrero and combat boots, and nobody will bat an eye.

 The fashion police are trained to ignore everyone under thirty, you might as well be dead to these fashionistas. We do not have to show the fashion police no stinking designer labels; we are free to dress however we please.

Boomers can dress like a pimp from a blaxploitation flick from the 70’s, a flapper from the 1920’s, or a hillbilly extra from Hee Haw. Nobody gives a damn what we wear.

‘The Bible Says It, I Believe it, That Settles it’, Say What?

Evangelicals’ bumper sticker theology summarized: “God said it, I believe it, and that settles it.”

Or in the Trump era: “God said it through his orange messiah, I believe it, and his every pronouncement is the law of the land.”

In the 1950’s when more than 90 percent of American adults identified as Christians, if a sanctimonious fool muttered this trite phrase, most people would have responded with a hearty “Amen.”

But in the secular 21st century, when a Christian exclaims, “The Bible says it, I believe it”, it sets them apart as a religious fanatic with a fascist mindset.

When a MAGA fanatic quotes Scripture it is not a theological mic drop, rather it’s an awkward faux pas that stifles debate.

Religious extremists fail to recognize that, beyond their group, the Bible is not seen as an ultimate authority.  The mind-numbing catchphrase should never be uttered outside of a fundamentalist church. This shibboleth is anathema in a secular society, and evangelicals should have the humility, common sense, and sense of propriety to never utter it in public.

Whenever a fanatic prefaces his comments with this war cry, I know they are going to use the Bible to justify homophobia, misogyny, or xenophobia, or some other atrocity.

We need to resurrect the 1990’s slang phrase “Talk to the hand” and extend one’s palm toward extremists whenever they start to recite their favorite religious slogan.

To Hell with Evangelicals, their Jesus, their Bible and their Adopted State of Israel

White evangelicals proclaim that their devotion to their orange messiah is a religious duty centered on protecting Christian influence and advancing an eschatology that will culminate in the rapture of the church. Most Bible thumpers think Trump is without sin and without fault, although a few concede that he does not personally embody traditional Christian virtues. The MAGA cultists rationalize: the Almighty enacts his will through imperfect vessels.  

These religious extremists idolize their orange Jesus, and they hate real Christians who remain faithful to the loving and merciful Jesus of the New Testament.

When evangelicals worship the most corrupt, vain, incompetent, and fascist president in history, mainline Christians, Catholics, Muslims, Hindus, and the nonreligious naturally and intuitively deduce that evangelical Christianity is a demonic doctrine from the pit of hell.

It should not be surprising that cultists who adore a president who is a steaming pile of human shit, are also the biggest supporters of the evil and genocidal Zionist state of Israel.

When a religious sect reveres a sociopath and fascist president, and supports the apartheid and racist state of Israel, that is plenty of reason to give them a wide berth as they march straight to hell.

Fuck evangelicals. Fuck their orange Jesus. Fuck their adopted state of Israel. Fuck their twisted interpretation of the Bible.

Act Like a Boomer When Eating and Having Sex

.

Life moved at a leisurely pace when boomers were growing up. “Take time to smell the roses” wasn’t a hackneyed phrase for the analog generation; we appreciated simple pleasures unnoticed by the digital generation.

The Tinder generation treats sexual intercourse like a bodily function that is as quick and emotionless as shaking hands or taking a crap. It’s Wham Bam, Thank You Ma’am, Don’t Let the Door Hit You on Your Way Out. After an unhurried round of lovemaking, we relaxed, smoked a cigarette and basked in the afterglow.   

For boomers there was a time and a place for everything, and eating a meal required a table, silverware, napkins and most of all privacy. When we ate in restaurants, we maintained proper decorum, and never burped, talked loudly, or did anything to disturb the other patrons. Dining was so enjoyable a ritual that even nonreligious people sometimes said a blessing.

People today eat everywhere: on public transportation, while driving, talking on the phone, in public buildings (even libraries and churches) and while walking down the street. They’re oblivious to the grease and litter they leave behind, concerned only with stuffing their faces.

Eating and having sex are normal and healthy human functions, but for the love of God act like thinking and caring human beings and not like wild animals.

Democrats Must Boycott Trump’s SOTU Speech

The State of the Union Address (SOTU) is historically a time for a president to call for national unity, but Donald Trump’s SOTU speeches have been intensely partisan and divisive. For example, in his March 2025 diatribe, he referred to Democrats as “radical left lunatics” and derisively dismissed Senator Elizabeth Warren as “Pocahontas.”

Trump’s regime is turning our democracy into a White Nationalist Christian dictatorship, it’s incumbent upon Democrats to express their outrage by boycotting the speech. Desperate times call for desperate measures.

Trump’s State of the Union address is set for February 24, 2026, and at least 12 notable Democrats—five senators and seven House members—have announced plans to skip the event.  

These patriotic Democrats are hosting an alternative rally dubbed the “People’s State of the Union”. They intend to gather on the National Mall to protest Trump during his primetime event.  

As of early February 2026, there are 214 Democrats in the U.S. House of Representatives for the 119th Congress, and 45 Democrats and two Independents who caucus with them in the Senate. I hope that all Democratic colleagues will join the dozen prominent members who have announced they will not attend.

Shame on any Democrat who attends Trump’s harangue. They are legitimizing fascism, racism, misogyny, homophobia, and corruption. I will not watch Trump’s lunatic oration. I will express my outrage at Trump’s fascism by watching the People’s State of the Union instead.

The Trump Clown Show

Donald Trump is a steaming pile of human shit, and it is tempting to write off his regime as a shit show. It is impossible to cover the Trump administration without feeling like you fell into a septic tank, and you will never scrub off the stench of feces.

It is more accurate to describe the buffoon-in-chief and his court jesters as a clown show. How else can you refer to an administration that is chaotic, corrupt, clueless, cutthroat, and clownish.

Trump and his Cabinet are not serious, they lack the necessary skills for their respective offices, and they excel only in buffoonery.  The primary responsibility of these sycophants is to engage in insane performance art intended to earn the approval and satisfaction of their Dear Leader.

The Trump clowns bear no resemblance to beloved clowns like Bozo the Clown or Ronald McDonald; their antics do not leave a smile on your face or peace in your heart.     

Their racist, homophobic, misogynist, and fascist shenanigans render you troubled and alarmed. Pennywise and Art the Clown would flee from these MAGA clowns from the pit of hell.

We would be well-advised not to take these jokesters seriously, and to turn the tables on them and use mockery and ridicule to cut them down to size.

I Love Me Some Twinkies

Twinkies are as American as apple pie, Coke and hot dogs, and the heavenly treat is my favorite guilty pleasure.

Only a Martian, a member of a lost Amazon tribe or a hermit doesn’t know that a Twinkie a light, golden sponge cake made with enriched wheat flour, sugar, eggs, and leavening agents like baking powder.

What Twinkies lack in nutritional value they make up in emotional and spiritual worth. These are at the top of my food pyramid, indicating they ought to be consumed infrequently, much like premium caviar.

In the Bible, manna was a miraculous, edible substance provided daily by Jehovah to sustain the Israelites during their 40-year wandering in the wilderness after the Exodus from Egypt. I am not a bible scholar, nutritionist, or a historian, but I’m persuaded that the manna that fell from heaven was Twinkies. Who knew that the original CEO of Hostess Brands was God Himself?

As a child, I devoured Twinkies quickly, but now I savor them slowly as an adult.  

I am not concerned about Twinkies disappearing from the world, since they can last for decades on the shelf. Even if there is a nuclear apocalypse, the only survivors might be cockroaches feasting on Twinkies.

Curiosity is the Fountain of Youth

Too many senior citizens have the mindset that younger generations cannot compete with their decades of experience, education, and life experiences.

They close their minds to new experiences and dismiss the idea that they can learn anything from young whippersnappers.

Though I am from the boomer generation, I remain eager to learn from people of all ages, even those who are much younger than myself.

I welcome opportunities to explore topics unfamiliar to me, and that does not have to involve enrolling in an adult education program. Not all university courses and lectures on the information highway are behind a paywall; you can learn something about every subject under the sun without going broke in cyberspace.

Alternatively, you might show humility by saying to younger relatives, “I don’t know much about cryptocurrency, rideshares, or TikTok. Could you explain a bit about it to me?”  

Although a literal fountain of youth does not exist, maintaining a sense of curiosity can help preserve a youthful outlook throughout life.

Do not ever be too afraid or too proud to admit, “I do not know much about (fill in the blank) can you help me.  

Trump is the Comforter-in-Chief of Evangelicals

The President of the United States occupies several significant positions, including serving as commander-in-chief, Leader of the Free World, chief executive of the federal government, leader of their political party, and fulfilling the important informal duty of commander-in-chief.

If a president possesses the legislative skill of LBJ, the military expertise of Dwight D. Eisenhower, the diplomatic skills of FDR, but does not have the empathy to serve as “comforter-in-chief” to console a grieving nation during times of crisis, they are ill-suited for the presidency.

The president should remain calm and use reassuring language during natural disasters, mass shootings, war, or other national crises.

Donald Trump has the military skills Dudley-Do-Right, the diplomatic chops of Atilla the Hun, the legislative expertise of Tommy Tuberville, and the sociopath is lacking in empathy and incapable of serving as “comforter-in-chief.”

Trump’s inadequacy as comforter-in-chief was in full display when he threw paper towels at a crowd of Hurricane Maria survivors in San Juan, Puerto Rico.

Trump makes a half-hearted effort to be comforter-in-chief only when a natural disaster strikes a red state.

Trump is a vindictive tyrant and the antithesis of comforter-in-chief. He is the divider-in-chief, agitator-in-chief, and inciter-in-chief.

America is appalled at Trump’s abject failure at being comforter-in-chief, except for MAGA evangelicals who experience a spiritual orgasm whenever their orange Messiah rails against their common enemies: migrants, Muslims, Democrats, people of color and the LGBT community.

When evangelicals die and wake up in hell, they will have Trump as their comforter-in-chief for eternity.

Lackey Sen. Bill Cassidy Thanks Trump for Taking Down Racist Video

The video that President Donald Trump shared on Truth Social depicting former President Barack Obama and former First Lady Michelle Obama as chimps was so blatantly racist and disgusting that even a handful of Republican lawmakers objected.

Republican Sen. Susan Collins of Maine said it was “appalling.” Rep. Mike Lawler of New York called the post “wrong and incredibly offensive.” Sen. Roger Wicker, a Mississippi Republican, said it was “totally unacceptable.”

Even Uncle Tom Sen. Tim Scott pleaded with his master to delete the video and called it “the most racist thing I’ve seen out of this White House.” Scott’s tweet implies that he is aware that this is not the first time Trump has said or done something racist. Shame on the bootlicking sycophant for not speaking out against Trump’s racism before.

Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) faced heavy criticism for his mild remarks.

“Thank you to President Trump for taking down the post about the Obamas. He made significant inroads with his outreach in the African American community which we need to continue. His post sent the wrong message despite how it may have been originally intended.”

Are you freaking kidding me? The racist-in-chief waited 12 hours to take down the racist video. Instead of thanking Trump for belatedly taking down the video, Cassidy should have blasted him for posting the vile thing in the first place. Cassidy implies that Trump’s intentions were pure, but he unintentionally sent out the wrong message. Bullshit! Trump’s intention was always to mock the Obamas out of jealousy and racism.

We shouldn’t expect Cassidy to exercise good judgment, after all the physician by trade and Chairman of the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee, voted to confirm the reprehensible and unqualified Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as the Secretary of Health and Human Services.

Trump Posts Racist Video of Obamas as Apes

President Donald Trump is a depraved and demented dictator whose political career is a downward spiral of debauchery and deceit. On several occasions, he seemed to reach what we believed was rock bottom—situations that could have led to impeachment and removal from office. Despite insurrection, indictments, and other atrocities, his moral decline persists.  His MAGA evangelical base cheers his downfall as if he were an Olympian downhill skier, and they make excuses and justifications for his deplorable behavior.

If Trump acted like a chimp and reached his tiny had into his sagging diapers and flung feces at reporters, his supporters would cheer wildly.

During Black History Month the racist-in-chief re-posted a video to Truth Social that included an AI-generated depiction of Barack and Michelle Obama as chimps.

White House staffers reflexively defended the president’s post, and Chief propagandist Karoline Leavitt dismissed it as an internet meme portraying Trump as King of the Jungle. The video wasn’t taken down until hours later.

Black Senator Tim Scott expressed outrage:

“Praying it was fake because it’s the most racist thing I’ve seen out of this White House. The President should remove it.”

But most Republican leaders remain silent, and I haven’t heard any denunciations from any prominent evangelicals.

Trump hit rock bottom years ago, and he should have already been impeached and removed from office. This is the final straw, and anyone who still supports him is a racist, and I publicly rebuke them.

AI Models Must be Free of an Evangelical Bias

Depending on practical reasoning, scientific methods, and observable evidence stands in contrast to placing trust in faith, doctrine, and religious scriptures.

The laws of physics are universal and unchanging, reliably guiding us in understanding the physical world.

Religion on the other hand is not universal, and it is always changing, and depending on scripture to guide your life journey will lead you to bitter disappointment.

It takes a leap of faith to believe in the doctrines of the myriad religions, which contradict each other. A blind leap of faith into the abyss that ends in crushed dreams and shattered lives.

As someone who relies on science and human intelligence, I am predisposed to think of AI as a positive step in the evolution of humankind. Although AI will eventually supersede human intelligence it is not inevitable that the rise of AI will lead to the downfall and extinction of humanity.

I was bitterly disappointed to learn that a new report suggests that the answers that artificial intelligence chatbots, including ChatGPT, give to questions about the Bible are biased towards evangelical theology.

To infect AI with an evangelical bias is a crime against common sense, intelligence, and rationality.

Evangelicals have already ruined our democracy; God have mercy on us if we allow them to contaminate AI with their delusions.
