I am both childless and a cat lady.
.
.
It’s probably not a good idea to piss us off…
.

And if politics offend you?
How about this…

🤣

I’m just going to leave these right here…

Whatever happened to aging gracefully?
.
I’m 59 years old and most definitely not as toned and tight as I once was. My hair is greying, my knee is shot… I have bunions FFS! But aging is a part of life and reflects who I am now, not the silly 20 year old I see in pictures and hardly recognize.
Much as I’d love to hook up a Hoover to my thighs and suction off a few doughnuts, I won’t. I also won’t be nipping and tucking anything on my face like these ladies… who in my opinion would’ve been better off with a few wrinkles.
Remember Melanie Griffith?
.
.
Working Girl? Milk Money?
.
.
Damn!
Remember perky little Meg Ryan? America’s sweetheart from When Harry Met Sally and You’ve Got Mail?
.
.
What’s with the lips? Why do they think bigger will make them look younger.
And then there’s Renee Zellwegger from Bridget Jones Diary.
.
.
She doesn’t even look like the same person and yet she swears she hasn’t had any work done. Her reason for the transformation? She’s happy.
Well so am, I but I still look like myself.
And finally there’s Madonna, to whom I can only say…
.
.
WTF?
.
.
This is truly frightening.
.
News you can’t use.
.
Because the world is full of it. In more ways than one…
.
.
The only appropriate response to this is…. why?
.
.
I was unaware of this beyond ridiculous law, but sadly it’s true. And once again it makes me wonder, why does America hate its women?
.
.
Finally, a workout routine I might be able to stick with.
.
.
You can run, but you can’t hide. Sorry Georgia and South Carolina.
.
.
I can’t confirm this particular news, but I really hope it’s true.
🤣
.
Cosmo-hell.
.
I received an email the other day telling me my gift subscription to Cosmopolitan would be ending soon and I can’t tell you how pleased I was to hear it. Never has a present been less well received. And while I thanked my friend for the thought, I also made it abundantly clear another year of this trashy rag would not be welcome.
.
.
Be honest men… did you even notice she was wearing a hat?
.
.
Decades of legitimate research? If you say so…
.
.
Even after a solid year of this crap, I’m still surprised this is what passes for a women’s magazine these days.
.
.
Is this even possible?
On second thought, don’t answer. I don’t want to know.
.
.
This entire publication lost me at hello. And in case you’re wondering, no… I don’t read the articles. I just flip through and photograph them for blog fodder. I didn’t meet Kristie and have no intention of ever doing so.
.
A definite change in perception.
.
The recent death of Betty White got me thinking about that popular old show The Golden Girls. To be honest I never watched it, but I caught glimpses now and then.
They were women of a certain age dealing with retirement, the loss of spouses and age related illnesses. They were witty and sarcastic yes, but let’s face it…. more than a little frumpy.
.
.
The show I did watch religiously? Sex and the City. Four women in the prime of their lives romping their way through midtown Manhattan boudoirs with unrestrained glee.
Frumpy? Not hardly…
.
.
And in case you’ve been living under a rock, SATC has returned to HBO under the new name “And Just Like That”. We catch up with 3 of the 4 women ten years later… and while they may be older? They’re still gleefully experimenting.
.
.
To recap:
Golden Girls in their early 50’s.
.
.
Sex and the City girls in their early 50’s.
.
.
My, how times .. not to mention the perceptions of age… change.
And if you think that was bad? Here’s some more food for thought….
.
.
Damn.
😳
.
I hate false advertising.
.
In a delightful break from the Ball Wash and testicle hammock ads, I’ve been seeing women’s fashion on my feed instead.
Not sure why since I never buy clothes I can’t try on first, but anything that replaces random male crotch shots is an improvement as far as I’m concerned.
I do however take issue with their product claims.
.
.
For every body?
Trust me, this suit is not made for any woman over a size 4 and is why young girls grow up hating their bodies.
.
.
Adore Me?
More like Obey Me or Else. Whip and handcuffs not included.
.
It (unfortunately) never disappoints.
.
Gather round boys and girls…. September’s Cosmo, aka the worst gift subscription ever, is here.
.
.
On first glance I thought maybe, just maybe…. I could flip through it without being stunned this month.
.
.
Yeah.
No such luck. And as I’ve said before, I’m no prude… but the in your face sexual content of this magazine never fails to surprise me.
.
.
Greatest sex position. Wouldn’t that be a personal choice?
.
.
Not according to Cosmopolitan.
.
.
And… apologies, but I’m not going to discuss the Venus butterfly technique. Cosmo did, so if you’re curious, get your own friend to give you a year’s worth of this trash.
.
Cosmopolitan Hell … part 2.
.
Because this month’s issue was extra horrible and requires two posts.
.
.
Sorry Cara, but I definitely don’t want to hear all about your sex toys.
.
.
Golden penis syndrome. If nothing else? Receiving this gift subscription has made me aware how utterly out of touch I am.
.
.
As if you men don’t think your wands have magic powers already. Geesh.
.
.
Interesting demographic there. All in the south except one town in Massachusetts. Wonder why…?
.
.
No, I didn’t tear that article out and I didn’t tuck it under my mattress. I did give brief thought to sending a copy to Monica Lewinsky… but alas, I think that ship has sailed.
.
Madison Avenue run amok.
.
Whatever happened to plop plop fizz fizz… or snap crackle and pop? These days it seems like it’s all ball wash or dead hoohaas.
.
.
My Whoopee is right where it needs to be thank you very much.
.
.
They did not just say that!
.
.
Good grief, do they even prescribe that anymore?
.
.
Here’s hoping your hoohaa is in good health and not in need of such products.
.
One mad mother chucker.
.
I’m not sure why…
.
.
But momma woodchuck always looks pissed off.
.
.
Is it because her children are always under foot?
.
.
Or because the pesky human woman keeps spraying all the tasty munchies with coyote urine?
.
.
Maybe it’s because her tatas are hanging so low they scrape the rock wall.
Tough call… but I’m going with gravity. That’s bound to make any woman cranky.

River's world.....
