Yes, it’s Bjork
It’s a freezing cold day, and it’s going to snow again tonight. I don’t want to go out, and I probably won’t. Next week I have to catch the train into NYC to get some paperwork done, but I probably won’t hang around. The city can be exhausting, and unless I have something I really want to do, I avoid the place. Before the scamdemic I was going in once a week to do a comedy workshop. We were all going to perform at some comedy joint somewhere at the conclusion of the course. The “covid” scare came along and everyone ran away and hid. I never got to go and perform my act. I’ve done stand up before in a previous class, so I know what it’s like. I kind of enjoyed it, but I don’t think it’s me.

Stand up comedy is just memorizing your jokes and delivering them to an audience like they just came off the top of your head. It’s that simple. It’s writing funny things to say, remembering it, and speaking it out loud. There’s a lot of polishing, and that’s where the comedy school comes in handy. You can work on your act in front of other budding comedians, and see what works and what doesn’t. Having an audience laugh at one of your jokes is a real trip. It never gets old.
Somewhere I have an image of me doing stand up in NYC. Do you think I can find it?
My current go-to for comedy is MSNBC. All day long they are screaming about what Trump and Musk are doing. It’s unconstitutional, it’s immoral, and it’s against the law etc, etc. You’ve never seen a more inappropriate bunch of people rallying around to defend the constitution like it was a matter of life of death.
These are the same people who twisted and distorted the US Constitution into whatever it took to get rid of their opposition, if they ever cared about it in the first place. These are the people who stole an election, and then threw everyone in jail who protested the fact. The Constitution means nothing to them. They are selective users and abusers of it. Let’s take birthright citizenship, which Trump says he wants to get rid of.
Some half assed liberal activist judge has issued a temporary restraining order blocking its implementation, calling it “blatantly unconstitutional.” Trump’s executive order argues that ‘the Fourteenth Amendment has never been interpreted to extend citizenship universally to everyone born within the United States.
The Fourteenth Amendment has always excluded from birthright citizenship persons who were born in the United States but not ‘subject to the jurisdiction thereof.’” I believe that’s what the rest of the 14th amendment states in detail but we never get to see that, the progressives always leave that part out. Trying to find out what it actually using any search engine is almost impossible today, given that almost all of the results are AI generated slop. It’s a good job we have the original encased in a secure location where people can read it.
