Eye-Popping Book and Reading Statistics [2022]

Werd up? Words. Books. Knowledge. Information. Education. Inculcation. Matriculation. Autodidacticism. It's refreshing and encouraging to see that the sale of books has not died. We need more people reading, and less people watching Cable News, and TV in general. A good example of someone that read a great deal? Abraham Lincoln was self-educated. His formal schooling was intermittent, the aggregate of which may have amounted to less than twelve months. He never attended college, and was mostly self-taught, even as a lawyer.  :) 

Ah yes, the USA, solidly in...23rd place.  :)

Speaking of people who don't read, and brag about it...lol, Palin, Bush, Trump, Green and a plethora of GOP politicians and voters. And you know what? It shows!  :) 

MTG also confused "Gazpacho" with "Gestapo" and "Peach Tree Dish" with "Petri Dish". 

#MAGA!!!!  :) 

You know these people that say we need more women in politics? Women in general. Any woman, just as long as said person has a vagina, she's automatically worth voting for. Yea...fuck those people. :) 

 Harriet Hageman, Liz Cheney, Sarah Palin

Three GOP Lunatics.

This dude is nuts. This notion that men can't find dates, and that women have unrealistic standards which are making men into Incels, ignores the millions of single and lonely women, just normal average women, that are sitting at home alone, running ads on Tinder, Fetlife, Discords, Dating Apps, the kinky ones are going to munches, all with the effort of finding a partner...and failing. 

Sure, the dating dynamic has changed over the years. But Covid has affected people's willingness to go out in public, and especially to meet a stranger. Plus, there has been a negative economic effect on the lives of so many people, male and female alike. That can cause stress, realigns priorities, reduces discretionary spending for things like dating, so there are a myriad of reasons why it's more challenging for single people to meet, and it can't be "dialed down" into some silly little "shrink" viewpoint on where men are blamed for this. 

According to a survey of adults in the U.S. using online dating services, 59 percent of women and 50 percent of men have used dating apps and websites to find an exclusive romantic partner.

Has it occured to "Mr. Shrink" (and others) that perhaps men are passing on the women that they meet, instead of the other way around? I mean, maybe the guys view the single women they're encountering as not meeting their standards. A lot of guys really don't want to date a woman who has 3 kids, a mountain of debt, is out of shape, with a ton of baggage and issues. It's not easy from either side. I mean holy hell, I'm not the ugliest chick on the planet, and I can't find no dick so, whatever. And anyone suggesting I have a ton of baggage will receive, from me, telepathic Atomic Wedgies...all fucking week, lol.  :) 

Psychologist Reveals Why More Men Are Ending Up Single. 

Backlash is well deserved. I don't have a high opinion of Pychologists and Psychiatrists to begin with, I prefer "medicine" that is based on science, tests and facts, not pseudoscience.  :)

Psychologist receives hate mail after saying men are more 'lonely'.

Maxwell Thorpe's rendition of Luciano Pavarotti's 'Caruso'. Fantastic voice, truly, serious talent, but with a horrible followup song after he's done singing. 

The Weather Girls - It's Raining Men. 

Why did I post this? It's happy, fun, lighthearted, intentionally cheesy, they're not taking themselves seriously and lastly, I'm in the middle of a fucking "Dick Drought" over here, lol.  :) 

Safety First!  :)
