Poor baby ...... you do care a lot about what people think of you, or you wouldn't have bothered to write the article.
Word of advice from an ordinary Joe/Jane just like you .... Focus on the people who love, like or are okay with your articles and tune out the negative shit.
That's what all great achievers have done in every field.
The very same people who are outraged today will give you accolades tomorrow.
I like you so much already, this one and I haven't even read it yet. Sounds like you're on the same timetable as I am. Today, I just told two Jewish institutions' "gatekeepers" where I'd been violated pretty much the same way, that I wasn't taking it any more and what it was I wasn't, and to get put of my life if they can't use our being at a time of maximized collective Jewish pain as anything other than an effective opportunity for a power-grab. I told another "gatekeeper" of a third institution, too, ditto, also in detail, last night. Next will be Yelp reviews and I don't want to hear about how I spuldn't have said it in public or at all, just send money and tolerate the abuse, when I'm now in ENOUGH pain that I don't want to keep "our little secret" any more.
WOW. what or who the hell passed you off. Never mind-- I don't need another profanity laced session. I'm happy you know how to vent. It's not healthy to keep it in. You do need to learn not to become unhinged by all the butt heads in the world today. Also, you should let your kids know who is in charge. Life is a bitch if you let it get to you. Carry on. Tomorrow is another f-ckin' day.
“There is no two.” - this! Entertaining and relatable: I think we’ve all been round this block at some point.
Also, people who start sentences with “egads” and “methinks” are (in my rambling and irrelevant experience) usually having a lot more fun writing their post than anyone reading it ever will. Let’s be honest, monks in a medieval scriptorium probably thought people using that turn of phrase were giant throbbing knobs: it really has no place in 2025.
Keep on: I’m enjoying your blog (and it looks like most other people are too).
Which is why I no longer appear on Linkedin.
I feel better...
I’m sorry
All good now Sally.
I adore you! ❤️😂
Reading this was cathartic to say the least. Thank you for making it clear and might I add ditto to all the “fucks” you gave!
Helped me out. Thanks Nikki!
You’re a good man and I feel your frustration. I enjoy your writing and those you give voice to. Keep up the good work and fuck the rest. 😉
Heck yeah! You keep being you!
Always.
ahahahahahahahahaha 🔥🙏🏼❗️

Great advice Jerry. I've managed to keep the ranting down to a minimum so far...this year...small steps.
A big deep breathe and continue being yourself. Your blog is a favorite.
Thanks RC.
I love how you write
All your words are right.
Did I mention...
I really love your words.
Thanks Liv

Thank you. Some days...

Indeed it is!
In paragraph three, sentence two you ... ah, never mind.... have a good effing day and ignore the effers, OK?
Lol...thanks Charles.
Is "egads" going to make a comeback?😉
I hope so.
Best one yet! Woohoo!
Wait to read my John Cena piece.
Yay! Can’t wait for more made up, random stuff!

Lol...I've been called a 'nincompoop' quite a bit lately. And 'imbecile'. It's as if we are all living in the 1940s.
My God - they’ll be calling you a “mountebank” and a “canting popinjay” next 😆 Facilitates not taking it too seriously, I suppose.
Love it!
Thanks Dena! Loved your recent post in the FOJ. Restacked.
Thanks!
