2.10.21 Bee-otch of the Day: Mike Shirkey

Bee-otched for: wearing the tinfoil with pride
--

January 6th, 2021 will be a day that will live in infamy.

Yesterday began the Senate trial of Drumpf's second impeachment. As the trial began, the world was greeted with a repeat of the shocking footage taken inside the Capitol during the insurrection. Seven people died and hundreds more were injured in the melee, which started as a protest against certifying Joe Biden as the President of the United States. In the end, it turned into a hellhole of pushing, shoving, pillaging and pure destruction.

Just today, more footage of the attack was shown on TV, showing police and guards escorting everybody to safety. The terrorists were only feet away from attacking vice president Pence, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and others.

If you have an IQ higher than average, you know that the terrorist attack was caused by lies caused by Drumpf. For the longest time, he was telling his minions that no matter what, he was going to win the 2020 election. He did not, and now, he has hell to pay.

The terrorists who unleashed their wrath on Washington were all brainwashed by the likes of Drumpf, Rush Limbaugh, Alex Jones, OANN and the MyPillow guy. They all believed in everything from faulty voting machines to President John F. Kennedy still being alive and well and working as an easy listening DJ in northern Michigan.

Sadly, one person who is wearing his tinfoil hat with pride is Michigan house speaker Mike Shirkey. In a secretly-taped interview at what appears to be a restaurant, Shirkey told the interviewer that the terrorists were "not Drumpf people" and that the insurrection at the Capitol was a hoax.

After the video surfaced, Shirkey apologized, but while talking with Michigan Lieutenant Governor Garlin Gilchrist Wednesday, he was captured on a hot mic, backtracking on his comments. He told Gilchrist that he didn't take back any of the points he was making in the video, but that the words he chose were not the right ones.

Michigan's leading Democrat, Sen. Jim Ananich stated, "Today I am more sad than I am angry. I am more disappointed than I am surprised. I’m not going to address any of the specific comments made recently by the senator from the 16th District because I just don’t have the words. But I am going to ask all of, but especially the senator from the 16th District, to reflect on the opening prayer that he gave just this morning. This isn’t the first time that you’ve asked for grace and Lord knows you’ve been given it. I would ask that you please accept it and learn from it. This is a chance for all of us to do some self-reflecting, but especially you, Mike."

Shirkey, a Republican has been critical of Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer for her stay-at-home order. He, along with now-former Michigan house speaker Lee Chatfield apparently worked together to try to help overturn the results of the 2020 election. Chatfield was term-limited out of office (sadly, his replacement, John Damoose is also a Repuke and a former producer of The 700 Club). Thankfully, Shirkey is also going to be term-limited, too. Hopefully, the people of his district will grow a brain and find somebody who doesn't believe in fake theories.

What's next? The terrorists were all CGI?

2.9.21 Bee-otch of the Day: World Wrestling Entertainment

Hulk Hogan beating Andre the Giant at Wrestlemania inside the Pontiac Silverdome.

"Mankind" Mick Foley and Kane's bloody smackdown at Hell in a Cell.

"Stone Cold" Steve Austin proclaiming that "Austin 3:16" reads "I just whipped yer ass!"

The list of greatest moments in wrestling history just go on and on. But, on Monday Night, it was a female wrestler's turn to create history with just two words.

And it ain't "suck it".

During a tables match with Lana, six-foot, 270-lb. wrestler Nia Jax was about to slam her leg onto her. However, Lana rolled over and Jax ended up slamming her butt onto the apron part of the ring, which is one of the hardest. Upon landing, Jax was in fake severe pain and started screaming in agony. While screaming, she uttered a line that ended up entering the lexicon of wrestling fans around the world.

Those two words: "my hole".

Even though Jax lost the bout, she has now gained millions of fans around the world and yes, a lot of memes. The aforementioned Mick Foley tweeted that "my hole" should be the next "Austin 3:16" and that the WWE should put the phrase on t-shirts. A bidet company called Tushy is offering to send her a free toilet.

Early today, Jax, a cousin of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and the Uso family, tweeted, "I’ve been receiving a HOLE lotta love, much obliged #myhole" After the match and well into today, #MyHole was trending on Twitter.

However, despite "my hole" now being one of the best-known catchphrases of the moment, the brass at the WWE now think that it's too hot for TV.

Apparently, the company has officially reedited the clip for future reairings and has "my hole" bleeped out. Yes, the company whose leader once uttered the n-word and had wrestlers stereotyping people of color wasn't too happy about one of its wrestlers uttering "my hole" on live TV. Of course, the company has long reinvented itself as a family friendly company in the past several years, However, those who grew up with John Cena are now much older and USA is pressuring the WWE to allow more "adult content" in their shows.

True, audiences were quite happy seeing an obese Samoan woman pretend that she hurt her fat ass. However, this is the WWE we're talking about here. Bear in mind that the McMahons are Drumpf ass-kissers and for them, it's all about the money and the sweet cash they're getting from corporate America. AEW, sadly, is also Republican-owned, though goofy-mustached Pakistani owner Shahid Khan - who's also Muslim - has spoken out against Drumpf's policies against foreigners.

Look, "my hole" really isn't all that offensive. To me, it just shows how unfunny the WWE wants to be. As much as I loved the Attitude era, it ain't coming back. Simply put, Vince McMahon is probably just old and tired, like most of the WWE's storylines and matches.

After all, they did rehire Hulk Hogan AFTER his n-word rant.

2.8.21 Bee-otch of the Day: conservatives in general

Bee-otch of the Day honors are awarded Monday through Thursday; Bee-otch of the Week is awarded Sunday morning on Chuck69.com's socials.

Name: The Republican Party

Bee-otched for: getting their asses handed to them
--

Last week, we reported on the downfall of Morgan Wallen, the country music superstar who was canceled out by the media and even his label after he uttered the n-word on camera.

Boy, oh, boy, guess who canceled out the media? His fans.

Since Wallen's so-called fall from grace, his fans all gathered into their pickup trucks and headed out to their local Walmart to buy up all his albums. After the news broke regarding Wallen, his album sales skyrocketed up 339% from the week before. Then again, when country stations dumped The (Dixie) Chicks, the same thing happened: their sales went up and they even won several Grammys.

Of course, we also reported on Marilyn Manson's situation regarding him abusing his lovers and all the celebs who have now turned their backs on him, like former mentor and label boss Trent Reznor. He's still played on rock stations everywhere, including those whose sister stations dumped Wallen. I just checked the Billboard 200 album chart and Manson is nowhere to be seen.

Granted, abusing women should never be defended. Neither should some 27-year-old yokel who doesn't wear a mask, frenches female strangers in a pandemic and uses racial slurs while inebriated. If he didn't look like the type who slept through history class in school - IF he had a history class in his school - he'd probably know why it's not cool to use that word, especially in 2021.

The lesson here is that the media will punish somebody. But, in the real world, if We the People have the money, we'll use it to tell them to fuck off and not to tell us what we can or can't buy. It all depends on the crime. Yes, Wallen's fans have seemed to vastly forgive him, but if I were an African American, I'd be pissed.

Thankfully, I feel that most Americans don't think the same way with Drumpf. With his Senate impeachment trial quickly approaching, it sucks that he might not be attending it at all. Not only that, his fellow Repuke senators won't vote him out, either, clearing him for a possible redux in 2024. He's probably hoping by then, he can get back into the White House and not have to worry about getting the boot from Mar-A-Lago. But, he had his day in the sun and he brought nothing but tornadoes and hurricanes to America.

It seems that the travesty Drumpf gave himself and his supporters only hurt them all. Just look at Mike Lindell, the MyPillow guy. Last weekend, he paid ultra-conservative cable network OANN to air a three-hour documentary loaded with false info regarding the 2020 election. Meanwhile, another retailer, JCPenney has announced that they are yanking MyPillow off their shelves, along with Kohl's and Bed, Bath and Beyond. To add more insult to injury, one of Lindell's biggest critics, Parkland shooting survivor David Hogg, just announced that he's starting his own pillow company with a group of investors.

Another wacko, Marjorie Taylor-Greene saw herself stripped of her committee assignments last week because of her ties with QAnon and other far-right groups. However, one sane Republican, Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney was censured by her state's GOP for voting to impeach Drumpf.

The reality is that the people have spoken and money is power. When people give you money, you've won, even if your ideas aren't the best. Walmart's owners are billionaires and they treat their workers like shit. Yet, people shop there for their low prices. Chick-fil-A alienated their LGBTQ+ customers for giving to anti-gay groups years ago. Yet, people go crazy over their burned-out shit. It goes on. All we can do is not go there if your beliefs don't match theirs.

The reality is that right-wing BS in America is dying. In thirty years, only one Republican won the popular vote for president and it was BusHitler's second term. He won his first term because of the snafu in Florida and the fact that Al Gore chose an anti-First Amendment assclown, Joe Lieberman to run with him. Drumpf won because of the screwjob the DNC did to Bernie Sanders. Conservatives who have a (D) after their names are wolves in sheep's clothing. And guess what happens when they run for the highest office? CHAOS!

As long as Biden channels FDR, God bless him. I hope by the time he's up with his 1st term. America will be back in order. But, sadly, some people won't change. And in the case of Lindell and others, it will cost them money.

There's not enough ton foil in this world to make a hat good enough for the world's losers.

2.3.21 Bee-otch of the Day: Morgan Wallen

Bee-otch of the Day honors are awarded Monday through Thursday; Bee-otch of the Week is awarded Sunday morning on Chuck69.com's socials.

Name: Morgan Wallen
Age: 27
Occupation: shitty country singer
Last Seen: Nashville, TN
Bee-otched for: being a drunk, racist loser
--

When it comes to the world of music, I can withstand just about everything.

Except most country music.

When I think of country music, I think of white trash losers with five teeth, don't shower and live in a trailer in the middle of nowhere in front of another trailer with its roof caved in. And yes, I view them as racist, Confederate flag-waving assholes who think that Drumpf was robbed in the 2020 presidential election.

And I wonder why women love Morgan Wallen.

I'll admit that the first time I've heard of him, he made headlines when he got kicked off Saturday Night Live for going to a bar during the pandemic. He was seen Frenching women and other things that might have gotten him and others the 'rona. Well, they did welcome him back a few weeks later. Now, it looks like his career is coming to an end.

The "Seven Glasses" singer was seen outside his home in Nashville after a night out with friends Sunday night. They were honking their horns and screaming loudly, angering neighbors. One of them decided to tape Wallen & Co.'s interaction when he uttered the words "pussy ass nigger".

Needless to say, the neighbor sent his video to TMZ, who exposed the country star as a drunk-ass racist asshole. In a statement, Wallen proclaimed "I’m embarrassed and sorry. I used an unacceptable and inappropriate racial slur that I wish I could take back. There are no excuses to use this type of language, ever. I want to sincerely apologize for using the word. I promise to do better."

Well, it was too little, too late.

Early today, Wallen's record labels, Big Loud and Republic, have suspended him despite his current LP, "Dangerous: The Double Album" being #1 on the Billboard Album Charts. Cable channel CMT has dropped his videos and to add insult to injury, America's three largest radio groups - iHeartMedia, Entercom and Cumulus - along with streaming services and SiriusXM have pulled the plug on his music indefinitely.

Coincidentally, one of the companies, Cumulus made headlines in the 2000s when they banned The Dixie Chicks from their stations when lead singer Natalie Maines blasted then-president BusHitler. Since then, the two brothers who ran the company, the Dickeys have since been fired for bankrupting them and The Chicks have returned to their stations. The company has even told their conservative hosts to 'tone it down', which might have been a reason why Mancow Muller left WLS-AM Chicago not long ago.

Ironically, Wallen's fall from grace comes at the same time several women - including actress Evan Rachel Wood - have all accused shock rocker Marilyn Manson for raping and abusing them. Manson was dropped by his label, but radio stations all over still play his music. Just today, Manson's former guitarist and Limp Bizkit member Wes Borland admitted that he knows that Manson was an abuser. This evening, Manson's former friend and producer Trent Reznor - who owned his old label, Nothing Records - denounced him, especially when in Manson's 1998 autobiography "The Long Hard Road Out Of Hell", he claimed that the two physically and sexually assaulted a drunk woman. Reznor - who claims that he has not talked to Manson in 25 years - called the passage a "complete fabrication". Nonetheless, Manson has posted that he is innocent and that the sex he had with his partners was "consensual".

True, some will cry that all Wallen did was say a word that offends many while many rock stations still play Manson's music. Well, there's a difference, and it's the fact that there's no concrete evidence of Manson's abuse so far. However, Wallen uttering the n-word was captured on camera and now, he has to pay the price.

I know, it's also hypocritical that some of these stations that banned Wallen also play music from artists who have done worse things. Hell, the WWE fired Hulk Hogan when he uttered that word on a leaked recording. However, wrestling fans pointed out that WWE head Vince McMahon uttered that word on an episode of Monday Night Raw years ago. Well, the Hulkster was rehired not long after.

If Morgan Wallen's idiot fans want him back, it's up to them. But seriously, he's a fucking drunk asshole who doesn't care about the safety of his fans, and judging by that video, black people. This is why I'm a bigger rap fan than country, even though rappers have their issues, too. But seriously, if this limp dick asshole wants to make a comeback, he's got some work to do.

For starters, he needs to stay home.

2.2.21 Bee-otch of the Day: the hypocrisy surrounding cancel culture

Bee-otch of the Day honors are awarded Monday through Thursday; Bee-otch of the Week is awarded Sunday morning on Chuck69.com's socials.

Name: cancel culture
Age: ageless
Occupation: cutting out the good things in life
Last Seen: everywhere
Bee-otched for: screwing over Marilyn Manson before he can speak
--

He was one of the biggest rock stars of the 1990s.

When Marilyn Manson's 1996 album "Antichrist Superstar" was released, it was groundbreaking in terms of the fact that a lanky kid from Ohio named Brian Warner could shock the world with his music and image. His industrial metal cover of Eurythmics' synth-pop classic "Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)" from "Smells Like Children" was a radio hit and songs like "The Beautiful People" and "The Dope Show" made him an active rock radio mainstay.

Twenty-five years ago, Manson was your parents' worst nightmare. As time marched on and as pop and hip-hop overtook rock in popularity, Manson's album sales did take a hit. "Antichrist Superstar" sold over seven million copies. His latest LP, the critically-acclaimed "We Are Chaos" has sold only over 30,000 copies so far.

Over the years, Manson's career has faced challenges, notably his critics blaming him for the 1999 Columbine massacre. However, Dylan Klebold and Kyle Harris weren't big fans of Manson's music, but rather were allegedly into techno. Because of this, Manson recorded "The Nobodies" from his 2001 album "Holy Wood".

But now, Manson has a new challenge: saving his career.

Yesterday, the 52-year-old rocker was dropped from his label, Loma Vista,after allegations surfaced regarding abuse from several women, including actress Evan Rachel Wood. In 2018, Wood testified in front of Congress in support of the Sexual Assault Survivors' Bill of Rights Act, claiming that a "significant other" had been physically, mentally and sexually abusing her, leading to her having PTSD. However, she had to remain moot on those charges because the statute of limitations had passed, fearing that her accuser would sue her.

According to Wood, she started dating Manson when "she was 18 and he was 38". However, when she was 18 in 2005, Manson was 36. Whatever.

Wood publicly announced that she was abused by Manson on her Instagram account on Monday. The post read, "The name of my abuser is Brian Warner, also known to the world as Marilyn Manson. He started grooming me when I was a teenager and horrifically abused me for years. I was brainwashed and manipulated into submission. I am done living in fear of retaliation, slander, or blackmail. I am here to expose this dangerous man and call out the many industries that have enabled him, before he ruins any more lives. I stand with the many victims who will no longer be silent."

Last night, Manson responded to Wood's accusations, posting "Obviously, my life and my art have long been magnets for controversy, but these recent claims about me are horrible distortions of reality. My intimate relationships have always been entirely consensual with like-minded partners. Regardless of how — and why — others are now choosing to misrepresent the past, that is the truth."

Just today alone, two TV shows that he was going to appear in canceled his appearances. His talent agency, CAA also dropped him.

Despite the cancel culture represented by Loma Vista, it appears that he's still getting airplay on radio stations everywhere. On Monday, legendary rocker WRIF Detroit played "Sweet Dreams" at around 5:30. SiriusXM still plays Manson's music on all their 1990s-onward rock channels.

The funny thing is that Ms. Wood is talking about the alleged pain and suffering she received from Manson over the years. However, it wouldn't shock me if some who hate Manson also embrace Chris Brown.

We all remembered what happened twelve years ago: Brown beat the shit out of his then-girlfriend, Rihanna. Not only that, he's been arrested multiple times and threatened several more girlfriends. Many had hoped that his career would have been dead and gone by now, but nope! As a matter of fact, his latest single, "Go Crazy" is currently a top ten smash and has gone platinum twice.

Meanwhile, the #1 song on rock radio is Five Finger Death Punch's "Living The Dream", whose video depicts a large group of people going into war with a woman who resembles House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. And yes, the video was shot long before the 1/6 insurrection.

Chances are that your local radio stations will have played everything from Ted Nugent (had an affair with a 16-year-old when he was in his 30s) to Elvis (raped Priscilla and was an alleged racist), Pantera (lead singer Phil Anselmo once screamed "white power" at a concert and often spoke about white privilege) to Creed (lead singer Scott Stapp threatened to kill Obama). Yesterday while I was taking my mom's car to get gas, her radio landed on Grand Rapids' recently-launched classic country outlet Jethro FM 94.9. They were playing "Great Balls of Fire" by Jerry Lee Lewis, who married his 13-year-old cousin in the 1950s.

There's no doubt that cancel culture has been around forever. In the 1890s, there was a movie called "The Kiss", which showed a middle-aged couple kissing. Many religious groups even wanted the projectors that showed the film destroyed for showing a PDA. In the 60s, there was the hit song "They're Coming to Take Me Away, Ha-Haaa!"by Napoleon XIV, which was yanked off many radio stations because of complaints from mental health organizations. In 1968, Transamerica Insurance, which then-owned the pre-1948 Warner Bros. film library, yanked eleven Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies from television in response to the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr. Even today, cancel culture is alive and well on TV in Utah; Salt Lake City's NBC affiliate, KSL-TV does not air the daytime soap opera Days of Our Lives until 1:05 a.m. because the show has a gay couple. KSL is owned by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, which preaches against homosexuality.

What's sad is that so often, when both sides preach about cancel culture, karma will put the smackdown on their candy ass. In the 1990s, the same religious assholes who wanted Marilyn Manson gone also wanted the same for Howard Stern, especially here in Grand Rapids. I find it funny that some of those same assholes also supported 91.3 WCSG, whose morning host is now in prison for decades for raping two 12-year-old boys in a hotel room. True, those assholes got their wish, only after the Janet Jackson Super Bowl nip slip, which persuaded Stern to move to Sirius. Let's also remember that many of Stern's haters also love pill-poppin', prostitute-fucking and cancer-stricken Rush Limbaugh.

Sometimes, when I think of cancel culture, I think of two episodes of The Simpsons. One was when Sideshow Bob dressed as Krusty the Klown and robbed the Kwik-E-Mart. Because Krusty was now evil, Homer went into Bart's room, took all of his Krusty paraphernalia and tossed it into a massive, burning pile of other people's Krusty items. Of course, Krusty was framed, and he was a free man. The other was the one where Marge called for a boycott of Itchy and Scratchy because Maggie smacked Homer with a hammer. However, her group also called for the boycott of Michelangelo's David statue because of its exposed genitalia. Marge veered away from her fellow *ahem* members because she didn't find it offensive at all.

You see, when you program a music-based radio station, you have to realize that there's fans on both sides of the aisle. You have liberals and conservatives, but you also have artists that people simply don't like because they're fuck-ups. In twenty years, I can only think of two artists that got banned from certain radio stations: The Dixie Chicks (Cumulus banned them because lead singer Natalie Maines told a crowd that they were ashamed for being from the same state as George W. Bush) and Madonna (who got banned from a Texas oldies station for telling a crowd that she wanted to "bomb the White House" because of Drumpf). There *might* be some liberal-minded radio station owners and programmers out there who would want to ban the likes of Ted Nugent and Creed, but it's not in their nature because of the First Amendment and a fear of reduced ratings from conservative listeners.

Look, I've never met Marilyn Manson, nor have I ever visited his house. Hell, I've never went to any of his concerts. I simply enjoy his music. Do I think he raped and tortured his girlfriends? Right now, who knows? If he did, God damn him. If he didn't, I hope he can rebuild and move on with his career. Not only that, but shame on those women for trying to derail his career and trying to take him down like Kobe.

So, IF Marilyn Manson is found guilty of rape, whether or not radio stations will still want to play his music is up to them. Remember that in England, many old episodes of Top of the Pops are forever shelved because they were hosted by serial rapist Jimmy Savile. On the other hand, here in America, Bill Cosby is rotting away in jail for rape, but there's a black-owned TV network, TVOne, that still airs The Cosby Show.

I guess it's all up to us as individuals to decide what to watch or hear. We DO have the remote.

Most civilized people have responsibilities in life.

People need to work, take care of their children and pets and homes. We need to eat, shower and take out the trash.

And yes, do the laundry.

On Saturday, I do what I normally do: run two loads of laundry in my apartment's laundry room. There wasn't much in the way of problems and was able to complete it in about two hours. However, the week before was hell.

I walk into the laundry room - where there's four washers and four dryers - and all four washers are running at once. So, I decided to wait maybe a 1/2 hour. Finally, two washers were free, so I started my wash. After my first two loads were done, I walk in, and a couple was in there loading two dryers while the other two dryers just sat there, not running, full of laundry. So, out of courtesy, I waited for whomever to empty those two dryers.

An hour went by, and those two dryers remained full. The other couple came in and emptied their laundry, so I used the dryers they used.

For shits 'n giggles, I monitored the laundry room - which was close to me - like a hawk. I saw that an Asian couple were using three washers. My laundry was finally done a short time later and was pissed at what I saw: the Asians were nice enough to take my jeans and threw them onto a table in the laundry room. Who knows what could have been on that table, and who knows how clean their hands were. Thankfully, my other load wasn't touched. So, I took that out, took it to my apartment and left those nasty Asians a nice surprise: I opened their dryers, stopping them for touching my shit.

And the funny thing is that a week before, the police came to that very laundry room.

What happened was that the four washers once again were all in use. The woman using them was an African immigrant. A black woman came in and wanted to use two of the washers, so she pulled out her clothes and dumped them onto the aforementioned table. The African woman came in with her baby attached to her back and was PISSED. She screamed at the lady that she was going to get COVID all over her clothes and threatened to punch her. I heard the screaming and shouting, so I kept my distance. The black woman called the cops and they came to talk to the African woman. I wanted to do my laundry, too, but since I lived by the laundry room, one of them decided to talk to me. He asked me if I knew about any punches thrown, and I said no. I told them that I stayed in my apartment the whole time, but heard a lot of screaming. That was all. Well, I got to do my laundry, though somebody - probably the African woman - opened my dryer doors. Thankfully, I was able to restart it ASAP.

It's an understandable fact that since the pandemic started, it's brought out the best in some people and the worst in others. A few weeks ago, I took my mother to get cataract surgery. The place I took her didn't have many places to sit, and some old farts ended up sitting next to me without even asking. I had almost half a mind to sit elsewhere, but I didn't want to cause a scene. Thankfully, my mom's surgeries are done, so I don't have to worry about being in crowded waiting rooms anymore.

You see, one of the lessons I've learned about life is that one person's idea of hygiene is a lot different than others. We've all been told to wash our hands after using the bathroom. Some don't do it after they pee. Hell, I've encountered some who don't do it after they shit, either! Many of them are unfortunately women who cry that soap dries out their hands. True, but I don't want their fucking germs, either! And yes, women do carry germs and can make people sick.

I know. I'm pushing 40 and should be in a house or condo by now. But, this is Grand Rapids, MI, where the cost of living is skyrocketing. Until then, I'm stuck renting and having to pay $3 to wash and dry my clothes. I work long hours at times during the week, so doing laundry then is not an option. Sadly, it's pathetic that I have to share my laundry facilities with self-centered assholes who are forgetful and don't think of others. The same goes with all of the jerks I've met who don't wear a mask or even want to stay away from you.

Folks, I don't fucking understand why it's been a year since the word "coronavirus" entered our vocabulary and people think it's still a hoax. OK, so where did you hear that it was a lie? Alex Jones? QAnon? Sorry, but that answer isn't good enough. My mother got it, and so did my cousin and one of his daughters, plus another one of my second cousins. Because of my mother getting it, I had to stay out of work for over a week, eating up most of my vacation time.

The good news is that there's a light at the end of the tunnel. People are getting vaccinated and more and more companies are coming out with new vaccines every week. I hope that by the end of the year, we won't have to worry about COVID and we can all move on with our lives.

But, until then, fucking clean your ass.
