Mo & Mo en Route – Equivocation

Mass Equivocation

Truth is not ambiguous, though some pretend it is. Equivocation won’t change a thing, except your integrity.

Oh, this is bad! It’s spreading, getting worse. “Can you tell us what was said?” “I can’t recall.” “I cannot recall.” “I can’t recall.” It started with Jeff Sessions, and it’s spread throughout the GOP. Is it serious? They suffering from a bad case of “mass equivocation.” * “Did he use similar word?” “A lot of words were spoken.” Symptoms include the enabling and excusing of bad behavior, bigotry, greed, lying… “This is insane.” “I don’t recall?” All I can say, when this is over, the GOP is going to have a hangover that will last decades. A hangover “like you’ve never seen!”

Mo & Mo en Route – Failing

Falling

Are you keeping up? The environment, the political environment, a lot of change, a lot of things falling.

Did you see? Frozen falling iguanas from Florida. It’s the cold, the change, it’s a challenge for them. The iguanas appear dead, but they’re just dormant. Thud! Iguana? No. Steve Bannon. Falling. Don’t touch him! Don’t wake him. Who knows where it’s been.

Mo & Mo en Route – Forecast

Weather Forecast

What is worse these days, the weather or politics? Both could use some good work. How do we improve our forecast?

Epic cold around the country. Now, another blizzard. …Now, another tweet storm. Weather’s been wild, heat, hurricanes, rain, wind, fire, snow, cold. News has been wild… division, unrest, high crimes, misdemeanors, assault, chaos, fatigue. Could they be related? Weather, thinking? Nah… Well, maybe… Clear thinking couldn’t hurt though. Warmth and hot chocolate couldn’t hurt either. Hot chocolate’s your answer for everything. Yep.

Mo & Mo en Route – 2018

Backward & Forward

An awful lot of looking backward, not so good for going forward.

The Year in review, rehash, rerun, rewind, regurgitate …looking back. I’m kind of done with backward… I mean, why all the constant looking back? Well there is that whole learning thing. I suppose so... but I could use some forward. I’m embracing it. Yes you are. Here’s to looking forward… Here’s to going forward! Happy New Year!

Mo & Mo en Route – Gift

The Gift

Gifts tend to be the talk of the season, but the best gifts are simple and require a little thought and effort, like say… peace.

OK, what did you get me? An iPhone? A Pixel? No. A gift card? No. Not a tax break? No, this is a real Christmas gift. This gift is not really a thing though… It’s given, but requires giving, and when giving, it keeps on giving. WHOA! SWEET! ,PEACE. The perfect gift… After all, “Peace on Earth”, how better to celebrate “The Prince of Peace.” And a Merry Christmas to you!

Mo & Mo en Route – Gazing

Navel-gazing

No way to live, no way to vote, no way to lead.

Why are they all looking down? They’re not. They’re navel-gazing. … It’s a thing. But, what is it? “Navel-gazing - Self-indulgent or excessive contemplation of oneself or a single issue, at the expense of a wider view.” Hey, that means we got a navel-gazer-in-chief. Navel-gazing’s killin’ my neck though. ...And that’s not all it’s killing. Frankly I’m finding navel-gazing a bit boring, not a good use of my time. Or anyone else’s.

Mo & Mo en Route – UnPrez

The Un-President

Just being “un” and undoing everything is another way of accomplishing nothing.

What is that? It’s the Un-President Doll. What does it do? It doesn’t do anything… but it UN-does everything. It undoes, treaties, alliances, protections, norms, decency, morality… You pull the string, and you get an Unprecedented reaction… It becomes unjust, unthinking, unreal, unhinged. It’s certified UnAmerican. Who’s it for? It’s for those on the naughty list.

Mo & Mo en Route – Algorithm

Algorithms

Social Media algorithms are designed to serve you content that keeps you on their site. The more extreme the content, the stickier it is, and the more it divides.

Crazy… watch a Trump Rally and the suggestions take you down a dark racist hole. Watch a Bernie Rally, get served videos leading to left wing conspiracies… Can’t be too extreme for them, eh? It’s their algorithm, written to be sticky, so you stay on their site, so to serve you more ads. The sticky web, like a web. YouTube, Facebook feeding fears and desires, feeding the divide. So much for "Don't be evil".* Not liking the fear thing, or the feeding thing. *"Don't be evil" Google's corporate motto.

Mo & Mo en Route – Turkeys

Mo & Mo en Route – Turkeys

Is this the year of the turkey? It just might be.

Tis the season for turkeys… and there’ve been a lot of turkeys this year… Equifax loses half of America’s Social Security Numbers. And POTUS is in a twitter war with half of Americans. Almost half of Americans* failed to participate in the last election, while the fact is Russia did participate in the last election. *46.9% of voters didn’t vote Now what’s true is called fake, and what’s fake is called true. And “Fake News” was voted “Word of the Year”* *by Collins Dictionaries We could go on but what are you thankful for? I’m thankful, I am not a turkey today. I guess that’s a start…

Mo & Mo en Route – Redux

Morality Redux

The subject of morality has been cast as irrelevant. Though it kind of seems important lately.

Morality Redux POTIS’s speech in S. Korea… “the women’s U.S. Open was held this year at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey.” How do you plug the plug. “I don’t recall it.” “I did not recall.” “Can’t recall.” “Cannot recall”… What about a real recall? “More on Moore as more come forward…” Really? Please, no more Moore. I guess morality is passé until it’s not. “Attacking the victims…”
