Slack Slacker, Languishing in the Lame Lane

 

Slack Slacker, Languishing in the Lame Lane.

Although it's Sunday morning, with a sunny day, albeit somewhat overcast, I did not awaken with my usual "chipperness", ready and eager to swing my racket at the local court. Willingness to take a long walk was not even a consideration, because my mood for some reason is out of sync.

Oddly, I am at a deficit for energy and positive vibes that generally provide me with a cool spirit to start my day. I can only reason that I allowed myself to be overloaded by the negative news that has been broadcast on every media outlet and platform, from legacy to social media, yesterday, and it took a toll I wasn’t prepared to pay. So beware, this can happen to you, too, for no one is immune to overstimulation by external influences thriving off your attention.  

My advice to those willing to heed this warning is “Don’t feed that beast”.

So, to recover some semblance of spiritual balance that has always provided me with an attitude of I don't give a shit, I'm going to take a break today to recover from this dismal attitude that's preventing me from being me.

Bottom line: a word to the wise from a bona fide wise ass, it's a good idea to reduce consumption of external stimulus when the messages are consistently contrary to positive thinking. For the time being, the only thing I'm going to do for the foreseeable future is to give this some thought before I re-engage the real world. Until then, I bid you a fond ado and hope all is well with you and yours.  Adios**** ****!

Yours truly, Lee Bines (aka) Slack Slacker! 😎

BTW, yours truly is not going to drown himself in self-pity and Taqulia today. I’ve got a date with a few AI bots and agents to build a project that’ll help me escape the clutches of platforms with unrealistic terms and conditions. Yeah, I may have always been a Slacker, but never a Sucker. I’ll keep you updated on the progress later this week.

 

  

Slack Slacker Hired a Stand-In.

 

You may have noticed that this has been a hectic week for negative news. I've been busy avoiding the madness by concentrating on learning Mandarin Chinese for a planned trip to Shanghai, China. And quite frankly, my brain hurts. Hence, the AI assistant above is covering my ass this Friday.

Also, learning AI, video production, and Chinese is a lot of work for a bona fide slacker! No matter how much fun it is. Oh yeah, I'm still working on that syllabus for Cool School, and it should be ready for launch on Monday. But don't hold your breath because Tequila, Chips, and Salsa are on the menu this weekend. 

Yours Truly, Lee Bines (aka) Slack Slacker 😎

BTW, let me know if you like the assistant. If so, I'll give her a name. Or better yet, leave a recommendation in the comments. Hell, maybe I'll let her conduct Cool School. On second thought, I'll let AI write the damn syllabus too.

Slack Slacker: The Nightlife in CHINA is SHOCKING

Cool School is in session. Lesson One

Slack Slacker Asks: When Will America Be Great Again? 

No, this is a valid question because from this writer's point of view, a large portion of the American citizenry is suffering from delusions of grandeur. Suppose one takes the time to pay attention to the current shifting geopolitical landscape. China and its leader, Xi Jinping, have taken that nation to levels of peace and prosperity far beyond the so-called American Dream. China has a plan. And with discipline, determination, and sacrifice, the Chinese government and the Chinese people have stuck to that plan. And the results are nothing but astounding.

From high-speed rail systems, beautiful architecture, and a thriving, well-educated middle class, China has checked all the boxes to qualify as a nation to be recognized as a society to be praised and not demonized by an envious empire in decline. 

Actually, America was never all that great. After processing America's history, it's always been a little more than chaotic, angry, mean-spirited, hostile, selfish, and entitled. If one were to assign these descriptors to an actual person, would one want to associate with them on any level? Would one want them to be a neighbor, a colleague, or, god forbid, a business partner? Let's just cut to the chase. One can only conclude the answer is Hell No! 

That said, WTF is one to do when conversing with the thoroughly deluded when they ask, if you think America suck so much, why don’t you go to China? My answer is I’m booking a trip to explore Shanghai and Hong Kong. As I mentioned in Saturday evening’s blog post, Expedia offers extremely affordable packages for flights and room accommodations. My only concern is the flight time from JFK. 21 hours is a bitch, when I could barely tolerate the flight time to Paris, London, or Madrid. But Fuck It, after checking out the videos on YouTube, China is worth that minor inconvenience, even to a slacker like me.

Bottom line: I’ve stopped drinking America’s Kool-Aid long ago. So, I’m doing some reconnaissance for my daughters to give them my first-hand account of what they can expect when they get there. Thankfully, they inherited my rebellious and open-minded spirit, so convincing them to get the fuck out of Dodge won’t be difficult. I'm proud of them both. And they're too smart to waste their lives in this corrupt cesspool. And BTW, Europe ain’t all that either.

Ladies and Gentlemen Slack Slacker Cool School Is going to be delayed

 

A Great way to introduce myself for a new and fresh opening season of the Adventures of Slack Slacker & His Dog Doobie. So, without any further Bullshit, let's get this show on the road, shall we?

Okay, forget all that crap. The truth is, I'm chilling with a new brand of Tequila I've been sampling called Teremana small batch Tequila, made in Mexico. I'm also munching on Santitas Hot Salsa and chips of the same brand while supposedly working on the syllabus for Slack Slacker's first day of Cool School. Well, that ain't going to happen on time because slackers are easily distracted.

I found myself prepping for a trip to Shanghai this upcoming April and f-ing around with Google translator to learn a little of the Chinese language, so I won't seem like the arrogant, ignorant American they are used to interacting with. I got the coolest Chinese buffet and liquor store in my neighborhood, and they give me lessons on what to do and how to interact with the locals when I get there to keep me from looking like an asshole.

Yeah, I'm having fun this Saturday night. Unfortunately, Expedia reservations show the flight time from JFK is 21 hrs. And that sucks. But anything worth a damn is going to come with some form of sacrifice. Besides, I can't wait to get there. Shanghai looks seriously cool in YouTube videos.

Oh yeah, the prices for a package deal that included flight and room accommodations aren't that expensive. If I'm lucid, I'll post some relevant videos on Monday to whet your appetite for what's to come in the future of the world. Yo, just saying'

How to Handle Payroll Mess-Ups: The Veronika Way #corporate #animation

If it's Saturday evening, I'm posting trolling YouTube videos that get under the skin of corporate HR types with thin skin. As a lifelong bona fide SLACKER and advocate for the suckers forced to work hard for peanuts, I enjoy passively/aggressively offering employees ammunition to undermine the employer's goals and profits.

Eventually, corporate flunky monkeys will wake up and realize they're on the wrong side of what's right!

Slack Slacker's Syllabus is Late for the 1st Day of Cool School

As an officer slacker, I often used every opportunity to disrupt productivity to annoy the shit out of coworkers with sticks up their asses with double entendre nonsense like this. Playing the fool has its advantages. I do it regularly on this Blog. However, doing so too often takes a toll on getting shit done on time. Hence, I'm late for the first day of class.

Slack Slacker's Syllabus is Late for the 1st Day of Cool School.

Hey dudes and dudettes, in all honesty, I was working on something serious to enlighten readers of this Blog. But it was my addiction to horror movies, Tequila, salsa, chips, and Guacamole that captured my attention this weekend. That said, I'm reposting the YouTube video above as a diversion from my irresponsible behavior. And I promise to do better in the future. Well, NOT really, but that's what I've always told people in the past.

If it's Friday, I'm laughing my ass off at somebody. God Damn It!😂

C-Ya'll Monday

Who the Hell is Slack Slacker, Really?

 

Who the Hell is Slack Slacker, Really?

It's about time I introduced myself formally. Currently, I've taken on the moniker of Slack Slacker, formerly Lee “The Cool Guy”. I’ve been described as wickedly witty and profanely profound in my delivery of social and political commentary. But wait, there's more!

Slack Slacker going forward has committed to advising and mentoring up-and-coming generations lost in the muck and mire of this dog-eat-dog world. 

As a slick slacker, I’ve navigated successfully to a dignified retirement without spending a day of my life working hard to make a living, and I've done so without committing anything but petty crimes and telling white lies.

I, Slack Slacker, have lived far too many moons not to share my stories and experiences with those who could use a break from their mundane and monotonous lives. From here on out, I take an oath with “Your” God as my witness that any tales I tell to put a smile on your faces will be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. Well, give or take a lie or two! Haven’t you heard of poetic license?

Bottom line: If you’re still interested in following me, reading my blog post, and buying some of my books, perhaps we can become friends someday. Well, the part about becoming friends someday may be a bridge too far, but you can believe everything else. Scouts Honor!

Yours Truly, Slack Slacker Formally Lee "The Cool Guy" 😎

Slack Slacker Hanging' with “Thugs & Thots” in the Wild! 😎 (Labor Day Weekend)

Why I Abandoned the "Black Culture"...

Slack Slacker: All Blacks may have been Created Equally, but many evolved, while others devolved. Real Talk!

UNCIVILIZED BLACK PEOPLE make life HARD for the rest of us, and we're TIRED

Slack Slacker Hangin' with “Thugs & Thots” in the Wild

Story Time for Labor Day Weekend.

If you were invited to the backyard picnic, the brothers and sisters know straight up that the potential for some crazy shit going down is possible. And very probable if you haven't disassociated yourself from those carrying low-life, ghetto assed ratchet DNA in their bloodstreams. For those who are clueless, read on so you won’t be surprised.  

Expect Clap Trapping Thot Bots with BBLs that could be assigned their own zip codes, twerking for potential baby daddies as the house party host grills Costco ribs, cheap burger meat, and hot dogs, sipping a Rot-Gut version of Courvoisier cognac from a Hip (Hop) Flask. You’ll see loud “Shit-Chatters” slammin’ dominos down on card tables while others slap backs of the winning partners playing Spades for bragging rights. Yeah, the Dusty Dawgs & Devious Divas are in their element, and everybody's partying like it’s 1999. 

 

But wait, there’s more: The dusties are dressed for this auspicious occasion in their cleanest low-hanging “SAGGING” chinos proudly displaying a pair of dingy shit-stained skid-marked boxers. However, not to be outshone by the lusty, busty, and just as dusty loves of an ex-con’s wet dream is the bonnet brigade 304’s sporting laced front weaves with batwing eyelashes and yoga pants so tight even an innocent observer could count the pubic hairs on their camel toe crotches. No Bullshit!

I kid you not, there were “Scandalous Scanks” of every age, size, and levels of lewd and lascivious willingness. Backroom B.J.s and quick lap dances out of view of the unruly delinquent “niglets” and future jailbirds were available to anyone with a joint and fifty bucks to grind it up with a chick nicknamed “Chlamydia”.

But the future and current felons (Pookie & Ray Ray) waving Glocks and swiggin’ from a 40 oz of Colt 45 are the real threats to an evening of wholesome neighborhood fun and games. These are the hair-triggered niggas and two-time losers (looking for that 3rd strike) who’d graduated with honors from Hood Rat High that would open fire in a Neonatal unit as quickly as they’d squeeze off a few bursts from a TEC-9 in a crowded club to settle a beef over a twenty-buck bag of fentanyl lace crack cocaine. Yeah, these are some scary ass” MOFO’s”. 

And lastly, but not least, the pronouns must be addressed. Most self-respecting Thugs prefer the My Bro, Bruh, Cuz, or shall I be so bold as to utter obvious? The term of endearment: My Nigga. Go ahead, look it up in the Urban Dictionary. I won’t cancel you. But. I wouldn't recommend you use it lightly unless you’re strapped to the teeth, got a good health plan, and ready to run for your Fucking Life. 

Bottom line: When I was young and dumb, my plus one and I at the time attended events like this, so I’ll give any non-Hoodlum-types a heads up to (A) Be aware of the stares. (B) Dress flashy but cheaply. (C) No jewelry, authentic or fugazi. (D) Never share your real phone number with anyone. I always use a Google phone number. It’s called Google Voice. (E) And for God’s sake, drive your own car. Uber and Lyft drivers got more sense to respond. It’s a strong possibility you may want to leave early or make a hasty getaway if niggas start niggin': Yo, you might need to bust a serious move.

Yours Truly, Lee Bines (aka) Slack Slacker 😎

Post Script: If you want to be gracious and make an effort to speak in the vernacular of the other “Guest”, you might consider checking to see if Babbel has a crash course in Ebonics. Just sayin’ Cuz!

Slack Slacker is Worried About the Shidiots Behind Trump’s Tariff Frenzy

Two Shitheads Influencing Donald Trump’s Economic and Tariff Policies

Peter Navarro & Jarred Kushner. By the way, you’ll need to translate this page. It’s in Spanish. (Excelsior.com) Well-written article. It explains a lot.

And Who is Ron Vara? The World Needs to Know

Since I’m not an economist or financial advisor, I provided links to answer many questions that those who are exposed to the madcap way the Trump administration has been mismanaging the nation’s economy, finances, future, and image. In my humble opinion, it looks like a bona fide shit show, the likes of which this country has never seen before. Therefore, I used Copilot’s AI to answer a question. Yeah, I can be nervous Nelly too when it comes to my money.

Today

Hey Lee, what's up?

What should investors do in response to the market crash last week?

Hey! Investors should stay calm and not make hasty decisions. It's crucial to review personal financial goals and investment strategies, especially if you're near retirement or have short-term financial needs. Diversification and avoiding emotional reactions are key. Talking to a financial advisor can help navigate through the volatility.

Thank you.

That seems like a logical answer, but I’ve been told that before, and since I fit the profile of the Boomer retiree with an exposed financial investment portfolio, I started snooping around to get a clearer picture of what happened last week when the market lost over 6 trillion dollars in two days. Here’s what I found at The Motley Fool.

Usually, I’d be comforted by their historical perspective, but “We the People” have never been exposed to a near brain-dead, delusional, narcissistic magalomanic before. Dude is straight up screwy. Therefore, we’re in uncharted waters, and I’m still very much concerned!

Bottom line: The real deal is this. The dollar is declining, inflation is rising, the latest jobs reports are abysmal. Don’t be a sucker, and don’t be a slacker. Do your due diligence by getting financially literate. That said, have three fingers of Patron Tequila with two lime slices over ice, and chill. You might need it. And once again, I’m not a  Wall Street type. I’m just playing one on my blog today to soothe my nerves.

Side Note: Ask Copilot AI if legal political mechanisms are available to remove Donald J. Trump from office!

By the way, if the word Shidiot got past you, never fear, the Urban Dictionary definition is proudly provided below!

Share definition

A mixture of shithead and idiot. Often known for being an insult, definitely not a compliment, and NOT defined by the following person above/below/whatever, it was a common swear word my grandfather would say when driving on the road and running across a 'shidiot' who obviously didn't know what they were doing.

That stupid shidiot doesn't know how to drive! The light isn't going to get any greener, damnit!

I can't stand that asshole, he's a stupid shidiot.
