Kansas City blogging perspective on a fashion trend in a crazy world . . .
Uncommon Courage: Mindfulness and Crocheting - In These Turbulent Times
Best line on a new hobby:
"I am the sort of person who needs to achieve a meditative state. Especially while children are being ripped from their asylum-seeking parents. That makes me crazy. Especially in these crazy times I have to calm down. I resumed crocheting in October. Since then, I have created seven Afghans, and I am working on my eighth. I have crocheted at least ten scarves and two hats. I can’t sit down in the evening without a project in my hands. I read and listen to the sad news, and I just crochet more."
Actually, the pastime is enjoying a renaissance. Checkit:

Open Border Policies are antithetical to what any reasonable, intellectually honest citizen of ANY country would consider beneficial to his/her country. (Sorry about using gender specific pronouns Lynne, you can beat us clingers to guns and bibles with that faux pas in your next Pulitzer worthy pearl, lain before we swine.)
ReplyDeleteIn Germany, Italy, Hungary and here in America, the Globalist, no borders, "come on in and we will pay for everything while you rape us up the ass to the sound of Adhan and Mariachi" is fuckin over.
Instead of sowing an Afghan, walk the walk and go live in Afghanistan, where your radical views support the religion of Female Mutilation, Stoning and the creation of millions of catamites.
Chuck, I support open borders. But then, I'm not a complete asshole like you.
ReplyDeleteTony, if Lynne is your friend than why do you invite people to hate on her like this?
Thanks 8:35. Your eviscerating, spot on comment that Chuck is an "asshole" completely refutes Chuck's argument and places you on the high ground where Open Borders Progressives live. At least until the unwashed masses get here and run us off, like they did to George Clooney in Italy.

Hey, 8:35, we can leave to and go live in Malibu after they get here, right?
Chuck didn't make an argument, he just attacked Lynne.
ReplyDeleteChuck is an asshole. I know it, you know it, he knows it.
"Especially while children are being ripped from their asylum-seeking parents. That makes me crazy."
ReplyDeleteApparently having American citizens separated from their children when they are incarcerated is acceptable to Lynne?
Amazing how we only hear about the kids being separated recently on the news when it’s been going on for years ever since the ACLU sued and won a court suit to keep the kids out of jails with the parents
ReplyDeleteSo as usual, an issue only becomes an issue when it becomes a useful tool for political gain
Crocheting and knitting is especially helpful for liberals but it has a negative effect on their mutual masturbation. Instead of jacking off 5 times per day, they now only have time to whack it 3 times.
ReplyDeleteNone of the liberals were whining about separating immigrant families when Obama was doing it.
This blame for the children being seperated from the parents is due to bad parents in not following the laws where they want to live while mooching off of the country but not becoming legal citizens and supporting it. If it is such an upsetting thing for Lynne to see happening one would think she would stop chasing her sex discrimination cases and be doing nothing but pro bono work representing these so called torn apart families. Her mouth does a lot of crying out while her pocketbook doesn't do a damn thing.
ReplyDeleteChuck just stated reality he didn't attack, he responded, but the butthurt crew never sees it that way because they want to yell insults back at those who speak and write the truth.
ReplyDeleteThe truth doesn't matter. It only matters what the people believe to be the truth.
I also agree that chuck is an asshole. He is also delusional, racist, short, paranoid, idiotic, pathetic, stupid, moronic, lazy, no fun,ugly, a dim-wit, broke, backwards, churlish, childish, and lacks a sense of humor and self-awareness.
ReplyDeleteMaybe he is all those things. But at least he isn’t a homosexual liberal faggot. There isn’t anything worse than a homosexual liberal faggot.
Delete↑You don't have to be so bitchy just because you ran out of pink yarn.
Delete9:52 is intended for 9:31 (Bratcher)!
Delete↑Thin-skinned,Lynne@8:35? Such pettiness to call someone an asshole when you're weak on counters to valid points.Make like a dignified professional, and simply agree to disagree.
ReplyDeleteSay, if you're really for open borders, how about you keep your car-home-office doors unlocked at all times? And, don't lock your windows.
Just take the happy pills and everything will be fine.
ReplyDeleteOh, so that's the real shit to get meditative, huh? All that crotchet talk was b.s. then. Hmmmm
DeleteTony, why do you hate Lynne so much?
ReplyDeleteWhat I learned from attorney Lynne Bratcher:
ReplyDeleteShe opens her article stating that "Lawyers are stressed.." This indicates a preoccupation with self.
She then immediately follows with "I have practiced yoga…I learned to meditate…I've exercised…But lately I have not been practicing yoga much, or exercising much, nor do I meditate daily." So she's a quitter, right? Or at least she just seemed to confess to being an attention deficit short-term trend follower.
In the midst of confessing her shortcomings, out-of-the-blue comes "children are being ripped from their asylum-seeking parents. That makes me crazy." Frankly, that last sentence is a confession from Lynne Bratcher which doesn't surprise me in the least! I've known for some time that she's crazy. I suppose that her own realization of that fact should be applauded, for one must hit bottom before they can begin to recover their sanity.
Let's try to end on a humorous note. Did you laugh when Lynne Bratcher wrote "I have created seven Afghans"?
An afghan is a woollen blanket or shawl, usually knitted or crocheted. But an Afghan refers to someone or something from Afghanistan. So, was Bratcher confessing to another personal indiscretion or seven of them? This is the problem with the politically liberal mind. In a word...CRAZY!
Well said. Hopefully, her paralegal has much better attention to detail abilities.
Delete9:32 I made that comment, & I'm not Lynne.
ReplyDelete10:11 all liberals are crazy?
ReplyDeleteThat's fucking crazy.
Macho
ReplyDeleteLynne
Knits
why has not anyone been complaining about US policies that CAUSE folks to flee mexico or their central american country, that drives me nuts. None of these folks should have to pack up their shit, their kids, and leave a more temperate climate to play fuck you with ICE or border patrol or US politics or US citizens who are suddenly concerned for children. To say you are pro open borders is complete bullshit, admits you do not give a shit how the US fucks with folks in their own country, just when they are on your doorstep, makes no sense.
ReplyDeletePeople have been complaining for years.
ReplyDeleteNow shut up, & do another line of coke.
@9:50 is wrong, there are people worse than homosexual liberal faggots - Chuck and his @9:50 rimjob boyfriend are far worse!
ReplyDeletefuck no have they been complaining and certainly not on MSM which in 3 days can very easily generate national outrage preying on maternal feelings. When was the last time mainstream Media created national outrage about US policies towards mexico and Central America that cause immigration, the fight has always been about nothing deeper than 'those wetbacks sure do like america, better build a wall." or "those poor migrants, better give them healthcare."
ReplyDeleteNow go stick your head back up your mother's ass.
@9:50AM-you are dead wrong about chuck not being a faggot. Ask stupid dave about that!
ReplyDeleteKnit a wall.
ReplyDeleteImpeach a President.
ReplyDeleteHillary lost ! Baahahahahahahaha
ReplyDeleteThe Trump Foundation got indicted! Bwaahahahahahahahahah
