A Picture Is Worth A Thousand Turds
April 1, 2024
We
have spoken previously about our respect and great affection for the majestic elephant. One of the most intelligent, civilized and
caring creatures on this miraculous planet. A planet that a large group of
people – we will call them people due to the limitations of our language and
this being a fucking family show – who have undeserved decision-making power,
and who could hardly have shown more disregard and disrespect for our entire
planet. This group of individuals at some point in this nation’s history
decided that their symbol would be the elephant. Don’t know why. Don’t care to
bother looking it up.
From The Economist
All I
know is that they do not deserve, nor should they any longer be permitted to
insult the mighty and noble elephant by disgracing its image as their logo.
Just as we have almost rid ourselves of all the disrespectful utilization of Native
American imagery, and insulting phraseology as name, mascot and/or logo for
groups of local sports mercenaries (still looking at you Atlanta Assholes and
Kansas City Chumps).
It is
time to disallow the hateful, fascist Trump-infested political party formerly
known as Republican – now a wholly-owned/soon-to-be-bankrupt subsidiary of Donald
Trump – to use the elephant for their nefarious purposes.
Speaking
of nefarious, the Republicans have another, newer, likely more temporary mascot
– an orangey-diaper-stain-of-a-man with make-believe (it could never make me
believe) “hair” with tiny hands and over-sized clothes – probably to camouflage
his diameter – who has completed a hostile takeover of the GQP. Unfortunately,
this pathetic puppet has not replaced the vaunted elephant, just humiliated it
as he drags it around by the trunk.

We
here at Paying Attention™ have come up with what we believe is an excellent and
infinitely more appropriate creature to represent the Fascist/Trump party,
seeing as they are a bunch of skeevy blood-suckers, who are unfortunately
certain to be darkening our doors for many years to come. These creatures,
along with poison ivy and mosquitoes are some of the few to benefit from the burgeoning
climate crisis.
Bid a
long-overdue farewell to the Republican Elephant and give a rousing welcome to
Meanwhile,
Democrats had better watch their ass.

*Oops. I’m being told that this is actually
Gritty the mascot for the Philadelphia Flyers hockey team. It must have been
the skin color and fake hair that threw me off. In my defense, Gritty is much
more realistic-looking.
