The Renegade Writer's Mouthy Musings

Man, it’s been a hell of a year for Mooch. Her health has been in jeopardy for most of the past 12 months. She’d never had much going on during the first 13 years of her life.

My, how that has changed. And it’s cost us a small fortune. But at least we’re getting some answers.

I’m going to do everything possible for our beloved dog. Mooch is so much more than just a family pet. I have ten photos in my phone for every one of my children. She’s an equal member of this family. The kids know that and accept it.

I received a detailed email from the vet regarding Mooch’s prognosis. We have one of two roads we can go down regarding her probable Cushing’s disease diagnosis. Decisions have to be made, and treatment or surgery scheduled. Both our daughter and Mai agree with me on the course of action we’ll take.

I’ll share this with you in today’s podcast episode. I read the email from the vet word for word in this. I hope you all appreciate the update about Mooch and what’s coming next for our little old lady dog.

Thank you for caring about what happens to her. It means the world to us.

I’m starting to think that Donald J.(agoff) Trump is into dudes.

And that would be fine if he wasn’t so angry and self-loathing about it. He’s a mean-spirited prick. And I feel that he takes that anger and hatred out on anyone he perceives as his enemy.

Which is pretty much the whole damn world. He’s not kind toward anyone other than other mean-spirited, power-hungry, soulless billionaires. The ones who compliment him. Some pay him for presidential pardons.

One of the many illegal activities that Pedolf Shitler participates in. He should have been removed from power long ago.

I talk about this in today’s episode of our podcast. I’m having a rough day today, and talking myself through it a bit helps. No matter how difficult life gets, at least I’m not as bad off as millions of people. The ones who think Prick Spacy is some sort of tough guy or a good leader.

Wake the fuck up, Shitiots. Your guy here has lost his mind. And the things he’s saying during speeches prove it.

“I love it when a plan comes together.”

That’s a famous quote from the 80s TV show “The A-Team,” spoken by George Peppard, who played Hannibal Smith. He’d light up his celebratory stogie, and the team would claim another victory.

Just as Ukraine has in the past couple of days. Viva La Resistance."

They blew up Russian bot factories in the latest attack against the warmongering Russians. You know, the country whose leader, Traitor Trump, blows on a regular basis. Speaking figuratively, though, I would believe it if I heard that the Fanta Menace put on actual knee pads and got to work on Putin.

He sure loves those evil, authoritarian dictators. He wants that kind of power for himself.

Well, we’re not going to allow that to happen. I talk about this recent badass development in today’s podcast episode. I also stress the importance of checking on your voter registration and discuss some strategies that you can implement before Election Day.

We have too much to lose to sit on our asses and be complacent. Thank you for lending me your ears on this one. We have important work to achieve. And it will require the full participation of REAL patriots all over the United States.

Who’s up for it? Will you all join me in being Mouthy and vocal? I hope so.

I’ve figured a few things out during my 52 laps around the sun.

Most of the things I’ve learned have come with lessons. Some, harder to endure than others. But all of them have made me who I am today. And I’m pretty proud of that guy.

Even if he’s pretty mouthy and vocal. There have been many fucks thrown around, too.

But that’s ok. I like me. Most of my family members do, too. A fair amount of online friends, followers, and subscribers as well. The only crowd I don’t do that well with is MAGA dipshits.

And I’m cool with that. To hell with what they think, anyway. The only people who I care about are those who I like and respect.

And that’s certainly not deplorables who are racist, bigoted, sexist, and homophobic. Fuck their feelings. I’ve learned how to deal with those dipshits and several other important life lessons during the time I’ve been around. And I’ll share a few of those things with Y’all right now.

Happy birthday to me. And thank you to those who are leaving kind wishes in the comments of my articles and podcast episodes. I couldn’t do this without you, nor would I want to.

MAGA has certainly lived up to Hillary Clinton’s description of them as being “Deplorables.”

It’s evident in all that they say and do. The most recent MAGAstani fuckery involves an upcoming public execution. One that the Pentagon plans to livestream. Captain Morgain, Pete Kegsbreath, has decided that this is a good thing.

It’s not lost on me that the first person in line for this is of Middle Eastern descent.

Yes, the man is guilty as fuck. Of course, mass murder is wrong, vile, and reprehensible. Like livestreaming a firing-squad execution. The Trump criminal regime is doing a test run of their cruelty. They want you to be afraid to dissent.

They’re trying to silence critics of their administration. Good luck with that. Fuck no, I won’t do what you tell me. You won’t stop my Mouthy, vocal protesting of these criminal asswipes.

I talk about this in today’s podcast episode. I appreciate you lending me your ears. Your support means the world to me. Keep fighting fascism. We can’t let these traitors win.

Pete Kegsbreath wants to livestream a firing squad execution.

Drunky the Clown should really rethink that. If they execute the Fort Hood mass shooter on national TV, it could send a clear, chilling message to the world: That barbaric murder for entertainment is now on the table.

And Captain Morgan could be next. I’ll bet his wife and children wouldn’t want that viewed by millions.

After all, he’s responsible for the murders of dozens of Venezuelan fishermen. And the killing of over 160 Iranian schoolgirls. This fucking maniac would be the first in line if justice is actually served at some point here in America.

Perhaps second, after Pedolf Shitler.

I talk about the lunacy of this idea in today’s podcast episode. The chances of this happening are slim, but so are many other things the criminal regime has done in the past two years. Who knew that we’d witness so many idiotic, barbaric things in less than two years?

I did, actually. Some of you did, too. Let’s chat about it in the comments section. Thank you for lending me your ears, as always. You’re all valued and appreciated greatly.

I heard from an old friend the other day. She sent me a brief video of a fella stating something powerful. It moved me to tears. It hit me right where I live.

His message? “Some people don’t realize how much light they bring into others’ lives by just existing.”

That hit me hard. Mainly because the lady who sent it to me is one of those wonderful people. She’s been a friend for about two dozen years. We worked together originally, and she was one of my favorite people there at Dillard’s. I even visited her years later with my daughters once, at her home.

We’ve been saying how we need to get together soon. For years. I haven’t made that happen. And I feel bad about it.

We get so involved in our own lives and various pursuits. We don’t always make time for the ones who deserve our presence, and vice versa. So many justify it as being busy raising families, working hard in our careers, and needing downtime for ourselves. I get it.

But we could do better if we gave a better effort. I feel that I certainly could.

So let me tell you about my new idea to fix it. And how it could relate to my Substack page. I feel that I could create something you’d all enjoy and give a platform to the wonderful people in my life. I’d love to know what you think about this new pivot I’m considering. I’m always trying to improve my Substack so more folks can enjoy it.

Thank you for being a big part of that. It means the world to have your support. I look forward to hearing what you think of this idea in the comments section. I appreciate you all, always.

Good Christ, I can’t believe this shit.

The topic I’m podcasting about? Yes. But not just that. I recorded today’s podcast, lost it on my laptop, and didn’t even see it in the recycle bin. So I re-recorded it just now and was pretty pissed that it wasn’t as good as the first take.

Then I found the first take, which is what you’ll hear. Thank fuck.

Apologies for this being about 30 minutes late because of this BS. I still have no idea how I found the original, but I’m glad I did. Mainly because I had some shit to say about a local controversy that is very much like the Cornell 7 gang rapists’ group chat. And my first version was quite a bit more fiery and mouthy.

I’m sure you’ll agree, now that you get to hear it. I appreciate you all hanging in with me and pardoning my tardiness. My mood is improving, my blood pressure, coming back down from the red into the yellow. What a goddamn day.

Thank you for lending me your ears. Especially on difficult days. Your kind generosity and support are very appreciated. I couldn’t do this without Y’all. You’re the best.

I am so goddamn sick of Traitor Trump’s always-open shit factory located on his orange, bloated face.

The Leaning Tower of Feces needs to shut the fuck up and be removed from power immediately. If any other president had suggested that another country drop nukes on ANY American city, it would be considered treason. I’m so fed up with his fucking domestic terrorism against people who want him removed from power.

His many crimes and sins must be prosecuted. We cannot allow him to get away with “Well, that’s just Donald…” type of bullshit logic.

I talk about what a vile, repugnant fuck-stain Pedolf Shitler is. We are in this mess because many Americans are too stupid and lazy to have voted for what was right back in 2024. We’d better not make that same mistake again in less than a month.

Thank you for listening to this one. I appreciate you lending me your ears. The future of this nation hangs in the balance. I need everyone to join me in fighting like hell to save it.

Christ Almighty, things are really rough right now. Fuck Mondays. At least this one, right now.

I’m trying my hardest to handle it all. But it’s not going well. My mental health is not in a good place. I received a phone call from my father’s assisted living facility in the middle of recording this episode. I always answer the phone when they call.

Especially with his health so touch-and-go since he was diagnosed with COVID. It’s really changed his outlook, attitude, and actions for the worse.

On top of everything relating to him and the time left he has, Mooch is going through health problems. The vet thinks she has Cushing's disease. I scheduled the first of several visits for tests for Friday. I hope we get better news regarding her prognosis than we’re currently getting for my dad.

I don’t want to lose either of them. And certainly not both. I realized, though, that I’m going to handle Mooch’s passing far worse than I will my father’s. And that’s not a good feeling, but it’s me being honest.

I talk about this in today’s podcast episode. Things are rough in our household. I could certainly use a pep talk if anyone feels like leaving a comment. And if you’ve considered becoming a paid subscriber for 50% off, just $2 monthly, today would sure be a good day for it.

I need something that lifts my spirits. Thank you for considering it. I appreciate you all and your kind, generous support more than you know. Mooch does, too. &:^)
