Bras, Kardashians, Estela Carrillo, Trump, Afterlife

How do men survive without bras? Fio stores her glasses, credit card, car keys, lipstick, and a couple of Kleenexes in her bra while she's out gadding about. Good thing she doesn't have go through any metal detectors.
*
Fiorella is tired of the stupid Trump family. She wants everything back to normal--you know, with the Kardashians being the dopiest family on television.
*
Fio will admit she herself has been around long enough to know it's true that what goes around comes around, like names, fashion, politics, and philosophies. Nothing new under the sun, as they say. Hey--maybe that will apply to people too. See you in your next life!
*
La Doble Vida de Estela Carrillo is drawing to its inevitable close, but it's still spitting out screwball drama. Danilo knocked out Estela with an anesthetic for horses so he could rape her, but she doesn't know it yet because she was--well--knocked out. That boy's getting more and more vicious--remember that he strangled Tommy to death last week--and there's not much further he can go, though it might be a good idea if, on his way out, he took down Mr. Green, the evil Americano politician who held Estela and her daughter captive for a week or so.

What if Trump once upon a time had a brain of his own which was replaced by a Russian model installed by Putin and is operated by Melania?

Memo to Google News

Dear Google News: Fio wants to make it clear that she has no interest in Jennifer Aniston's uterus or whatever is going on with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie or anything having to do with the Kardashians or the latest scheme the Duggars have cooked up to sustain their faltering brand. Nor is Fiorella interested in political speculation--once burned, twice shy. What she wants to read is news, real news, not fake news, what is actually happening in this country and around the world, with a few uplifting side stories thrown in.

TV People

Maybe Trump's opponents should plant someone in the audience to yell "Donald is a poopy pants," then encourage the crowd to echo it.
*
Again, Fio asks--has any Kardashian ever held a real job?
*
Speaking of TV, "Lucifer" would have a great time with the Duggars--but maybe he already has.

Duggars and Kardashians

When you come right down to it, there isn't that much difference between the Duggars and the Kardashians.  Both families are large, loyal, unemployed, woefully under-educated, governed by a control freak, and have money coming out their ears.

And both families are sexually oriented, The women are skilled with make-up, wear cute clothes, sport the latest hair styles, and aren't averse to a few nips and tucks, but the Duggars groom their girls to be as sexually submissive as FLDS Mormons, while the Kardashians groom their girls to be as lecherous as Saturday night--uh--girlfriends.

The big difference between the two families is that the Duggars try to smooth over any cracks in their facade, while the Kardashians base episodes around them.

Whatever.  The Kardashians are boring, and the Duggars give Fio sugar diabetes.

Snippets in Progress

Fiorella doesn't like the concept of competitive eating.  It's gross and disrespects food.  She doesn't like the Kardashians either--they're gross and disrespect decency.
*
How about somebody manufacturing a laptop with a handle on it so Fio can carry it like a briefcase? And has she told you she wants a laptop that, like her new printer, doesn't feed itself through cords trailing across the floor?
*.
Fio has just discovered she misused the word "importunate."  Too bad.  Wasn't the first, won't be the last.

Celebrity Snippets

Jennifer vs. Angelina.  Forget about Brad Pitt--it's the belly vs. the breasts to determine who can generate the most publicity,  Jennifer Aniston's supposed pregnancy or Angelina Jolie's mastectomy.
Right now, Jennifer's winning.  If she wears anything other than skin-tight, she's supposedly proved the tabloids right.
*
Now that Lindsay Lohan is locked away for a couple of months, there's a new loony tune in Hollywood, and her name is Amanda Bynes.  What is it about child stars when they grow up?
 *
Meanwhile the Kardashians are dashian from spotlight to spotlight, still with no visible talent whatsoever except being able to have sex in the spotlight.
*
And if the ladies, aren't enough, Michael Douglas has told us more about his sexual habits than we really wanted to know.  Um--keep your mouth shut, Mike.
