Tuesday Top of Mind 4/2/24-what fresh hell is there now?

The questionis what fresh hell is there now?

Well.

So much.

Republicans are still bitter that it is no longer the 1950s and women have rights and bank accounts and our own money. Therefore they are enacting laws to get us back there. When they mattered because money is power and women had none.

Apparently some women want to get back there. There is even a small movement around it. The Trad Wife. Or Stay At Home Girlfriend.

But do they really? Do they want to do all the chores without modern conveniences such as vacuum cleaners? Or dishwashers? And bake the bread from scratch. All the bread. And make all the dinners from scratch. And not have any other their own money in case the man in question no longer wants a stay at home wife/girlfriend because maybe a new little cutie has caught their eye. Maybe the new one would like to be a stay at home whatever.

No. I would hazard a guess that they want to be taken care of by a rich person. Where they don’t have to think about the money that is spent. Where they don’t have to pay X bill this month and hope that Y company does not cut off service for non-payment. Where they don’t have to wonder how to stretch the grocery budget this week for all the demands that the sugar person had. Where their only job is to look good.

Kind of hollow that life. It is kind of like the food that looks so appetizing in the store and tastes like sawdust.

Be careful what you wish for.

Don’t give up what control you have. Don’t let them take it away from you, no matter what they promise.

Instead of the gold ring, you might end up with a green finger.
