Mimosa, Bloody Mary, nice flute of champagne — or maybe a favorite tipple in your coffee. Make yourself one and, as Dorothy Parker once said, “If you don’t have anything nice to say, come sit by me.”
Gracious, dears, we are barely starting the second week of 2023 and I’m already tempted to throw up my hands in disbelief! From those who dabble in chaos to those who cannot escape vacuity, some hivemind decided to grease the skids at the top of the year for all manner of drink-inducing absurdities as to beat us normies about the head and shoulders.
So here, let me pass you a double-the-whiskey Irish coffee and let’s go for it. Cheers!

I mean, there must be nothing to do when one assigns law enforcement officers to duties such as this:
Someone in the UK has been threatened with arrest for criticising the Pride flag. Where does this end? Can I be jailed for criticising the Coca-Cola logo? Are "protected groups" above the law because any criticism would itself be illegal?

And let’s marvel together at this sentence … “I require you to contact me for a voluntary interview.” Kafka couldn’t have said it better.

Ever since Trump broke David French — True Conservative™ — the poor man has shed copious amounts of personal dignity and principles like a sheep dog with the mange, all in service of Cocktail Party Republicanism. And this self-defenestration has finally paid off.
The (New York) Times has announced that David French will transition from writing at the Dispatch (which he helped found) and the Atlantic to their opinion pages come January 30. French, declares the Times, “embodies factual and intellectual clarity, moral seriousness, and a spirit of generosity toward others and humility toward oneself.”
Say, what? The NYSlimes has all the clarity and moral seriousness of Michael here:
But hey, it’s not like Vichy David is the only one …
The Times needed their own Jennifer Ruben

The jokes, they write themselves …
Hillary Clinton is joining the Columbia faculty. https://t.co/B7NfekdSqw As a leading anti-free speech voice, she will fit in perfectly at a school where even the head of the Journalism School denounced "weaponizing free speech" and called for censorship. https://t.co/S786EZyqF8

Clinton has accepted a professorship at Columbia’s School of International and Public Affairs. Additionally, she has joined the Columbia World Projects program as a presidential fellow.
Oh friends, Hillary is as qualified as a “professor” as I am an F-18 pilot. Save yourself $58K/year expense and send your kids to a place that won’t neuter their ability to function within the real world.

El Paso rushes to remove illegal immigrants and migrant camps that are crowding downtown before Biden arrives.
Predictable.
Biden does not want America to see the chaos that he has caused on the border.
This is just a photo op and a game of pretend.https://t.co/4KJqorJjrP

Earlier this week we witnessed White House Bobble-head Karine Jean-Pierre yapping about how Pappy Joe has been on “border security since Day One”…
OUCH!! Excuse me, I just rolled my eyes so hard I cramped a muscle …
Biden’s handlers will push gaslighting to cover over the millions of illegals they’ve incentivized to invade the nation by using El Paso like a Hollywood backset. Attention plebes! Don’t believe you’re lyin’ eyes. Don’t worry. Be happy and, remember, shut up.

It may sound like heresy, but not all great meals come from Le Cordon Bleu-trained chefs.
LOVE the line that Southern biscuits and gravy are like a warm hug. And I’m particular to chicken-fried steak. Shall we wander down the street and have some for lunch?
And until next Sunday, bon appetite!

Carol Marks says: Having lived in the south for years and years now, that video of the Brits trying biscuits and gravy was awesome! Thank you for that.
Cameron says: From that bit about the Brit getting contacted by the local Stasi. “I require you to contact me to arrange a voluntary interview.”
I do hope that nice man’s response is “Fuck off” and then make the LGBTOMGWTFBBQ community cry more.
GWB says: French, declares the Times, “embodies factual and intellectual clarity, moral seriousness, and a spirit of generosity toward others and humility toward oneself.”
In the immortal words of Uhura: “Sorry, neither!”

Unfortunately, that list is getting shorter by the semester.
As to breakfasts? I do love me a sausage, egg, and chips breakfast, putting a little tea in my milk. It is particularly yummy when the eggs are over easy and you can dab the sausage in the yolk… mmm!
And, while I understand the “warm hug” analogy, it really seems… inadequate somehow for the level of goodness that good sawmill gravy over buttermilk biscuits can be. (And how about a fast food version? The pork chop and gravy biscuit from Hardee’s/Carl Jr’s. Yum, too.)
GWB says: After viewing the video, why is that gravy yellow?! Eeeewwwwwww.
(As to the country fried steak, “are there spices in there?” Well, yeah. Pepper. And some salt. That’s about it, usually. These people are British, so even pepper might be a bit more for them.)
And if they had only gone to some good diner, instead of a hipster joint, they would have been even more impressed.
