Land of the Free... but Only if You're White

Dear white people,

Stop being assholes.

Sincerely, me


I know not ALL white people are to blame because not all are pieces of shit but it's easier to generalize in this case. With all this unnecessary controversy about athletes kneeling during the National Anthem, I felt the need to voice my opinion sans Twitter and what better place to do so than my own blog.

I may not agree with your opinion about what these athletes are doing and I don't really care. I will respect your right to have that idiotic opinion but I'm not going to get all pissy because you're not doing what I think you should be doing. So go ahead and boycott the NFL because players are exercising their rights to protest all the bullshit that is going on in America. Bullshit that by the way, should have been dead and gone a LONG time ago. In boycotting, you're essentially doing what you don't want these players to do, exercising their rights. Hypocritical much??

Personally, I don't care whether you stand, kneel, sit, scratch your balls, suck a dick or pick your ass during the National Anthem. It's your choice, you do you. Ok, maybe the sucking dick one shouldn't be done... in public at least. My point being, whatever you decide to do has no affect on me and what others do should have no affect on you. If it does, you need help. The world doesn't revolve around you. You are not God's gift to the human race. You are simply a regular person who lacks an abundance of melanin. I know there's plenty of you who love being tan. Guess what, that's melanin. I truly wonder how many people would stop tanning and be their true pasty selves if they knew melanin is literally, the only thing that differentiates them from any other race.

And can I just say how unbelievably stupid that Jessie James Decker chicks comment was about her husband being "tricked" into staying in the locker room during the National Anthem?! Come on dude, you've been a football player for how long and STILL don't know what time your games start?! I'm gonna go ahead and suggest you get your brain scanned because you must be experiencing some symptoms of CTE already if you don't know when your game starts after all this time. Or better yet, just quit playing to save your already fragile brain from further damage and stay out of the spotlight so your wife can't make idiotic comments like that again. Sure her reasoning for "respecting" the National Anthem was family members in the military. Well, I also had family members in the military and I know damn well, that they didn't fight for a flag, they fought for our freedom. Not standing for a song isn't disrespecting those in the military, it's exercising a right that they fought for us to have and to keep.

So stop with this KKK, white supremacy and all this other "I'm better than you" bullshit. It is 2017 for fucks sake. Get over yourselves.

Have You Done a Good Deed Lately?

As we all know the world is losing its mind. We have an orange clown for a President who makes me incredibly sad that the country hasn't evolved in hundreds of years, North Korea is trying to shoot off missiles and shit, there's a handful of hurricanes and fires happening at once and giant ass earthquakes too. Despite all the craziness that is going on, I'm trying to find and remember the happiness that once was. With all the Nazi and white supremacy shit going on I had found myself trying to remind people there is still good in the world by posting puppy gifs on Twitter every day for the first week or so after the whole tiki torch racist bullshit. It might not be much but it's enough to make you forget for a split second that there are terrible humans in this world.

Now to the point of this post. A few nights ago I went to a Padres game and as I was walking back to my car I was excited to see this homeless man sitting with his little dog outside of the parking structure. I know it's weird to say I was excited to see a homeless person but I really was. I had seen him many times before on my way back to my car. He isn't vocal and sits there with a sign that asks for food. The first few times I would pass him I did what the majority of people would do, walk past and not make eye contact because I didn't want to feel like a terrible person for catching his gaze and giving false hope that I'd be able to help. Almost every time I got in my car and I was already on my way home I would remember that I had food in my purse that I knew I wasn't going to eat anytime soon. Last weekend, I went to the doubleheader and each time I went back to my car I looked to see if he was out there because I finally remembered ahead of time that I had food I could give him. He wasn't there. Well on Thursday night, he was there and like I said, I was excited to see him. I purposely walked up to him, probably getting in others ways, and pulled out some graham crackers I had in my purse and handed it to him. I told him I also had some water too and handed that to him as well. He was so grateful for the little food and water I had to give him that it made me so happy that I was able to do that for him.

I wasn't planning on writing about this because I'm a firm believer of not needing to let the world know you did a good deed. So I'm not telling this to humble brag about my kindness that night but to hopefully encourage others to do something nice for someone who needs it the most. I'm not the most empathetic or sympathetic person, I'm kind of a robot actually, but for some reason that man had been on my mind and I knew that I needed to do what I could for him. With all this craziness going on in the world I must be feeling the need to try and makeup for all the assholes. Unfortunately I will never be able to make up for all of them on my own so can the non assholes step up and help a girl out?!

New Blog. Who This??

I've decided recently that I wanted to start blogging again. I have one blog already that I haven't touched in years due to lack of motivation. So why would I want to start another that would basically be the same as the first?? Because I came up with the most perfect name that describes me. Baseball and Bikinis, as you can see. The only way the name could be more me is if it referenced animals and medicine too. That would be a mouthful though. "Baseball, Bikinis, Lions and Medicine: Oh, My!!" that would make an interesting post name though, hmm. Now that I've successfully gotten off topic...

I was planning on this being dedicated to my love of baseball. As you can see, I can't stick to one thought. Some days this might be about baseball and others might be about my adventures around town or basically whatever I feel like writing about when I feel the urge to write. Hopefully, I can keep the topics somewhat consistent but it is me so that probably won't happen. With all that being said, I'll try to post more than once every blue moon. Here's hoping.
