Nicki Minaj Cousin's Friends Balls

As you have noticed dear reader, I am taking an extended hiatus from blogging here at Bierkergaard. 

Frankly, although I think I have something to say, most people don't give a rat's ass. So, I have to face the facts, I write for a relatively small group of regulars. Although, since its inception, this blog has garnered over a million views, it has never hit critical mass. So, it is a hard ground.

If I had put even 1/10th of the energy into my Beer Blog, it likely would have caught on. I opted for philosophy and theology  

When a tweet by Nicki Minaj cousin's friends balls allegedly swelling up after the COVID vaccine shot generates millions of views and words, the battle is lost.  Truth is American society is stocked with dumbasses. Maybe we should check our Chinese-made dinnerware for lead.  

I get in debates with seriously ill-informed individuals on social media at times. I find Trumpers to be particularly fucking stupid. Wrong about the facts, wrong about their take, who practice downright dirty insults when losing the argument.  And then they keep coming back for more after I have whipped their insolent little whiny punk asses. But, the Left has its shares of doofuses also.  

Since such discussions rarely result in any admission of wrongness, I typically have the good sense to stick to topics that I know a lot about, I am ready to give up on such endeavors. The morons win. I know it sounds harsh to call such types morons but that is what they are 100%. There are just too many of them.

I've kinda given up too. Legitimate disagreements turn into who is right and wrong, and most people turn stupid to keep their precious beliefs and views intact. The world is a complicated place with nuance and shades of gray, and it’s a lot easier to be binary. We have always been kinda stupid in this way, but now the stupidest and most binary people, that confirm people’s beliefs have the largest bullhorns (Social media), and drowns out more sensible perspectives.

Shake the Dust: Anis Mojgani

Pslam 90:2 "Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever thou hadst formed the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting, thou art God." I am not real certain where Anis Mojgani comes from belief-wise. Cats like him tend to be synchrestic spiritually rather than Christ-centered. Yet, this poem captures the spirit of Jesus. What this poem also needs is grace....we shake off sin and mortality and take on Christ and immortality. This is for the fat girls This is for the little brothers For the former prom queen And for the milk crate ball players This is for the school yard wimps And the childhood bullies that tormented them Shake the dust. This is for the benches and the people sitting upon them. This is for the bus drivers driving a million broken hymns And for the men who have to hold down 3 jobs, Simply to hold up their children. For the nighttime schoolers And for the midnight bike riders trying to fly Shake the dust. For the two year olds who cann

White Shoes, White Stones

Rev 2:17 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches. To him that overcometh, to him will I give of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, and upon the stone a new name written, which no one knoweth but he that receiveth it. (ASV) With the white stone mentioned above in the Scripture verse, "And will give him a white stone" it is "Supposed that by the white stone is meant pardon or acquittance, and the evidence of it; and that there is an allusion here to the custom observed by judges in ancient times, who were accustomed to give their suffrages by white and black pebbles; those who gave the former were for absolving the culprit, those who gave the latter were for his condemnation." (Clarke) What has brought about this essay was my purchasing the other day of some very white and new Nike jogging shoes. My old pair of Nike's have been worn down. I was developing serious pain in my feet which is a solid sign that it is t

Going Rogue: Dare, Risk, Dream

Image
I picked up a bumper sticker at a Pub recently from the Rogue Brewery . On it there are the words: DARE, RISK, DREAM. Typically, the word Rogue is a negative term. I will let you decide if Sarah Palin and her book has made the word less or more so. Initially, I taped the bumper sticker to my computer lap top with the backing still on it in case I wanted to remove it. Just a second ago, I committed fully, and pulled the backing off and affixed it to my Dell. No turning back. Is that not an illustration of how to accomplish great things? We have to stick and commit. If we go taping ourselves to the backs of things, it leads to easier removal but also to tepid efforts. Now, if I take this bumper sticker off the back of my lap top it is going to be a mess...I am all in. Consequences be damned. My summer vacation officially began today at noon (why else would I be blogging at 3:26 am?) and my creed for the summer is DARE, RISK, DREAM. A Kerouac quote to light the fireworks... "Great th
