Well for all of you in a relationship folk, I hope you enjoyed Valentine's Day and got all the lovin' you needed. I'd imagine the rest of us carried on like it was any other day, so a few teary-eyed wanks, eating too much and retro video games for me. Let's hope the chocolate is cheap today.
On the meme front though, Valentine's Day has provided a few as has Gina Carano's firing from the serialized Star Wars spin-off, "The Mandalorian". Carano's history of transphobic, anti-mask entirely questionable right wing rhetoric forced Disney's hand in dropping her like she was hot. This has consequently spawned a variety of memes on both sides of the poltical divide as to whether they were right to do this, whether she was a victim of "Cancel culture", or if she was as I believe, the recepient of "Consequence culture". Certainly, when you compare having conservative leanings to being born a member of the Jewish race or religion and thinking that being scrutinized for holding a beliefs which often promote racism and bigotry is the same as being forced into a concentration camp for your ethnic heritage are the same is at best ill-thought out and poorly constructed and at best down right fucking stupid. Either way, Carano has appeared to learn nothing from the experience, jumping into bed with political pundit, Ben "I'm not a Nazi because I'm a Jew, but Palestinians are savages who should be exterminated" Shapiro straight after being let go. I'll leave that left-wing-aligned, bashing the right stuff until the end. I'll start with a meme that I created, though to lampoon my constant ability to fall into online arguments.
Let's not forget the whole Trump Impeachment trial falling on its ass, the same week that (for a completely seperate unrealted trial) a lawyer on Zoom couldn't get rid of the cat face filter.
