Mo & Mo en Route

Fake News

Fake News is as good as any other fake stuff. It’s not. And is just bad for our national health.

We’re obsessed with food labels. What’s in it? Is it going to hurt you? Is it going to help? Yah’ put a fake label on stuff and you’d get in real trouble. > What food we consume, big concern. What news we consume, not so much. > 62% of Americans are getting news on social media* and of those engagements a majority of that was Fake News**. > We don‘t want to contaminate up our body, but contaminate our minds? We can’t get enough! Fake food and fake news like an angry bird are just bad for us. * “A majority of U.S. adults – 62% – get news on social media” - Pew Research Center Survey 2016 ** Facebook Data via Buzzsumo and Buzzfeed during the Election 8/16-11/16

Mo & Mo en Route – Cynicism

Cynicism v. Hope

Cynicism? Got to have Hope, but hope is active. No hiding in a hole, though it might be nice.

There is still a lot of fear, anger, frustration, suspicion and distrust out. And that’s why I’m in this hole, and not coming out. So who won again? Cynicism… Cynicism won. What happened to Hope? Hope seems to be too much work. Does that mean we’ll have to try harder? Yep. Well, maybe later. This hole kind of comfy.

Mo & Mo en Route – Postscript

Postscript 

Campaign 2016 is over, but it is the leftovers that are really not pretty.

Is it really over? No, no not really. There is the clean-up. And we are talking a real mess. Distrust, Bigotry, Fear, Hatred, Anger, Suspicion, Misogyny, Racism, Divisiveness

Mo & Mo en Route – Vote!

JUST VOTE!!!

Campaign 2016 has been really long, even longer given this race. And now, just vote!

Huff… Puff… Almost there. It’s down the stretch. I’m exhausted! I can’t take it anymore. This has been exasperating, and I’m in pain. Only one thing left to do… JUST VOTE!

Mo & Mo en Route – Electoral

Electoral Vote

It’s amazing that it still doesn’t matter who wins the popular vote. Crazy.

OK, the popular vote doesn’t really matter. It’s the electors who choose the U.S. president. ? Electors are picked by each state… Now, it’s basically 51 separate elections. That’s crazy. Crazy 8’s? Well not as crazy explaining our election to a foreigner. He's a Hedgehog. Hey. Well it’s not rigged, but it is cockamamie. Why not a popular vote? All those news folks with those electoral maps, would be out of work. They are really influential. I win!

Mo & Mo en Route – Rigged

Rigged?

A huckster declares it is all rigged. Think about it.

So, let me get this straight for the past 2 years “the media” has given unlimited air to "He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named".* Much to the detriment of the other candidates. And their commentary had been “Did you see that?... Want more?” So, when things are good, “the Media” is brilliant and he's a genius. Now their commentary to “Did you see that! OMG!” So, when things are bad, he's a victim and it’s all rigged. This whole rigged thing? Not buying it. Not working for me. Not working for me either.

Mo & Mo en Route – Debateable

Debatable 

The debates, not for the lack of trying, have pretty much been train wrecks.

Oh, I love that old Monty Python skit! The Argument Clinic. Yes it is… No it isn’t… It is… It isn’t… It’s not Monty Python it the debate… Sigh… No I didn’t… Yes you did… I didn’t… You did… And we have one more to go… That’s unfortunate. Donald saying it doesn’t make it true! Yes it does… No it doesn’t… It does… it doesn’t… Now mud… This is not good. This is insane… I know you are but what am I… Sigh… Unshackled? More like unhinged…

Mo & Mo en Route – Choose-Ye

Choose Ye

Choose ye, and know what you are actually getting with your choice.

I think I’ll have a… Be careful of what you choose. Wait a minute I didn’t order this… This is Election Diner. When you make a choice, you don’t always get what you thought you chose. Here at The Election you have to know the effects of the choice you make. Can I have them take it back? No, you’re stuck with your choice. Now you tell me.

Mo & Mo en Route -Disillusion

Disillusion

First debate is done and it doesn’t look like there are any fewer disillusioned voters.

Contentious campaign… Yuh think? No pulling punches here. Supporters tend to have rather strong feelings too… Ah yup. You know, this thing is so close and neither of them is likely to win over 50% of the vote… This all leads to one really big question. Forget baskets, how are they going to govern this Big “Bucket of Disillusion-ables”?

Mo & Mo en Route – Again…

Selfies again

I have been out for the past few days, so I have republished an old favorite that still rings true, especial during this campaign.

Is it a need for validation, narcissism, proof of life? What’s with this obsession with selfies? …but then again hasn’t it always been an obsession? I suppose it’s just a whole lot easier now. Unless of course you have short arms then it’s just pointless.
