It has to be somebody who wants American males to become French or something like that. I found this article titled Obsolete Man Skills You Should Ditch and it is a step by step on how to make sure you have people who will fold to anybody who grunts at them aggressively and be nice servants in a generation.

The article not only tells you what “obsolete male skills” you need to dispose off but it also gives you what you should substitute it with.

Old: Hunting – New: Learn How to Cook for Yourself.
Sweetheart, if you can kill your food, sure as hell you can cook it even if it is a piece of meat on a stick over a campfire. And hunters get the freshest most organic food in the world rather than having to go to Whole Foods and pay up the ass for a few ounces of crap raised in some farm.

Old: Fighting – New: Learn How to Mediate
I have to quote them “Problem-solving with an eye to compromise and healthy conflict resolution is something that, by and large, men just aren’t taught growing up.”  Listen Pajama Boy, if you are getting your head pounced into the pavement by some enraged asshole, your mediation skills are worth about as much as used toilet paper. Enjoy your stay in ICU.

Old: Repairing Your Car – New: Learn How to Code
Yes, cars nowadays are run by computer, but I doubt pretty much your nighttime class in coding is gonna fix whatever Check Engine light is trying to tell you or even if the car dies all of a sudden and you have not figured out how to clean the battery terminals.

Old: Fixing Things at Home – New: Learn How to Decorate.
I have to quote them again. “With most millennials having no real shot at home-ownership, there’s a good chance your landlord will be the one in charge of fixing anything that goes wrong in your place — or, more likely, paying someone else to.” Listen, I have rented and all of the places came with the condition of the manager being in charge of the repairs and maintenance. But here is the thing: shit breaks down after hours where getting the manager or the handyman on the phone is a bit difficult. And unfortunately, there is a good chance there are a few other apartments in need of fixing ahead of you. So, unless you don’t want to spend the weekend in the dark because you can’t figure out an electrical panel or hear the drip from the shower for a week or two, learn to fix things. In fact, the property manager will be happy as a lark to discount your expenses from the next rent payment because he won’t have to pay somebody $75 an hour plus parts to fix whatever little thing you had wrong in your rental.

Old: Being a Leader – New: Learn How to Collaborate
How about both? How about learning when to be a leader and when to be a helping hand? I understand why being a leader scares them: You are the sole responsible for failures that may happen while a group can dilute the blame among those presents. And that is where they are coming from and not from a concept of many minds applying to solve a problem.

Old: Being a Disciplinarian – New: Learn How to Communicate With Your Children.
OK, these people are a bad joke “For a long time, the most important aspect of being a father was simply providing for your family, and second, perhaps, was molding your sons into men. That meant being stern with them — even harsh. That meant toughening them up by teaching them how to shoot, how to fight, how to push through their pain, how to overcome their fears.”  If your kids screw up, of course you have to be stern. You would be doing them a disservice otherwise. You need to teach them to conquer their fears may them be sleeping without a light, jump from the board into the pool or get their first job. Sometimes is sink or swim, sometimes is experienced advice that they will learn the hard way because they chose to ignore you.

Old: Holding Your Emotions In – New: Learn How to Talk About Your Feelings
“Listen here dear son/daughter. You are the dumbest collection of human DNA in history and I feel embarrassed to have my name attached to your birth certificate. I am in almost physical pain for all the money wasted on you on what I thought it was “education” and I wish I could get a refund or sell you for parts.”  OK, I shared my feelings, Do you think they would feel better?

Sweet Lord.

The original Spirit of the Democrats is still here, it just come packaged differently nowaday .

Keep in mind that the 800,000 federal workers affected by the shutdown have so far missed a grand total of one paycheck, which would have arrived five days ago.

There’s no doubt that this is challenging for many workers, particularly those who don’t budget their money well. But Congress has already guaranteed they will be made whole once the shutdown ends.

This is an inconvenience, not a hardship.

Government Shutdown: Pampered Federal Workers Don’t Deserve Anyone’s Pity

I have a Facebook friend who went into a rant about the buddies celebrating the Shutdown and that we should know that those furloughed include people working for the security of the Nation.  There is a point made there, but also we know there is probably 3 times more people who are not essential to the nation other than picking up a check so they are not on welfare.

There are over 2 million Federal workers not including those in the postal service. Out of that many, even the wasteful Federal Government considers 800,000 unessential enough to be sent home. According to the own guidelines of the Federal Government, 40% of its workforce is non-essential.  Think about that.That is bad business practice in the private sector and any CEO keeping that many people sucking company income, would be taken to the desert outside Las Vegas, shot in the back of the head and  the corpse left in the open for the wildlife to feast and “Pour encourager les autres” in management.

And some people wonder why there is so much deficit coming out of DC?

And please, do not put the blame on me because I laugh at the shutdown. It was not me who deemed you unessential, it was your employer. And if this shit ends, you will get your money anyway, so spare me your woes of “suffering and starvation” as in real life you don’t get those cushions to land on.

According to the wife, the duck walking over her car is vandalism publishable by death.

She does not kid when it comes to her car.

If you thought that 2018 was bad, 2019 is shaping up to be so much worse.

Karen Pence is the wife of Vice President Mike Pence, Second Lady of the United States and former First Lady of Indiana.  She is also a school teacher.  She earned a BS and MS in elementary school education with a minor in art, from Butler University in Indianapolis.

Butler is a beautiful liberal arts school.  I’ve been there to watch the ballet school perform The Nutcracker.

Recently, Karen Pence announced that she would go back to teaching art at a school in the suburbs of Washington DC.

Pence will teach elementary art two days a week at Immanuel Christian School in northern Virginia, her office announced. She’ll be known as “Mrs. Pence” to her students, not as the second lady of the United States, per her office.

“I am excited to be back in the classroom and doing what I love to do, which is to teach art to elementary students,” Pence said in a statement.

“I have missed teaching art, and it’s great to return to the school where I taught art for 12 years,” she added

If Pence was not a Republican and a Christian, the Left and the media would probably be ecstatic about the Second Lady of the United States showing that woman can have a career and that it’s something down to earth, and yadda yadda yadda.

However, being a Republican and a Christian, this is how The Washington Post chose to break the news.

The school that hired Karen Pence requires applicants to disavow gay marriage, trans identity https://t.co/WIxxYKa0qN

Really?

Really.  Immanuel Christian School, is just that, a Christian school.  It, like many religious schools, has a morality clause that requires students, faculty, and family to adhere to the doctrine of the religion associated with the school.

If you attend a Orthodox Jewish school or a Madrassa, you don’t send your kid to school with a ham sandwich in his lunchbox.

It must come as a surprise to the Left that mainstream Christianity still considers homosexuality a sin, as well as teaches men are men and women are women, made that way in God’s image.

Forgetting the religious side of things, the idea of letting pre-pubescent children (this is an elementary school by the way) identify as trans and start to transition, is awful for so many other reasons that I’ve covered before.

Since the Left can’t let Christians be Christians – though you’d never seem them lose their minds at a Madrassa saying students and teachers can be gay – Karen Pence and the people at Immanuel Christian School must be tortured.

Karen Pence’s Anti-LGBTQ School To Receive 100 Copies Of LGBTQ Children’s Book

A year ago, Karen Pence did the art for a kids book about what the Vice President does, from the view point of the Pence family pet rabbit.  The book is called Marlon Bundo’s Day in the Life of the Vice President.  The profits of the book sales were donated to Tracy’s Kids, an art therapy program at the Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis.

I know, Karen Pence is an art teacher who helped write an anodyne children’s book about the job of the VP, and donated the profits to an art program for sick kids.  She really is an inhuman monster.

Unable to leave that kind of thing alone, John Oliver decided to write a parody book.  It is about the Pence family pet rabbit, falling in love with another boy bunny.  A stink bug that looks like the VP tries to stop them, and then the other animals vote him out.

This is how the Huffington Post tells that story.

A Day in the Life of Marlon Bundo debuted last year as comedian John Oliver’s response to Marlon Bundo’s Day in the Life of the Vice President, a book written by Pence’s daughter, Charlotte, and illustrated by Karen Pence that depicts the family’s pet rabbit, Marlon Bundo.

Mike Pence is notoriously hostile to LGBTQ rights, once opining that marriage equality could lead to “societal collapse.” Perhaps unsurprisingly, the queer version of the bunny book has sold much better. Proceeds benefit The Trevor Project, which works specifically to prevent suicide by LGBTQ youth, and AIDS United, which is dedicated to stopping AIDS in the U.S.

But sending a pro-gay book that is critical of the husband of the new art teacher to a Christian school isn’t where this story ends.

See, because our taxes pay for her Secret Service detail, and she teaches part time, privately, at a Christian school that abides by rather mainstream Christian morality, she must be stripped of her security detail, inviting any radical nut-job to attack her.

This is the extent that they are willing to go now.

“Believe what we want you to believe or we will open the door to have our thugs attack you.”

That is a very small step from “Believe what we want you to believe or we will shoot you.”

They are getting worse.

I know it is a compilation of extreme cases, but there is always somebody ready to heal his/her ego with fists, doesn’t it? In that sense I do miss shooting matches as nobody thinks they can apply violence to get his butt unhurt.

We had a in couple of occasions some strange visitors that did not inspire confidence (public range and all that)  and several club members were told to discretely load their guns and keep an eye on them. At least in one occasion, a group of four individuals came looking like they thought we were easy pickings only to be greeted by a bunch of guys with predatory smiles and guns on their hips. They left rather quickly.
