Waking Dream (A Novella)

      The following is a novella which I helped write in 2010. The story was begun by my friends Jorge Wolfhouse and Matthew Johnson, with myself doing the typing. The first three-quarters of the story were written by Jorge Wolfhouse and Matthew Johnson. The last quarter was written by myself, Joe Kopsick.
     Included at the beginning are the authors' preferences as to whom should direct and star in the film version of this story, should it ever be turned into a screenplay.
     I would apologize for the gratuitous use of racial slurs, and insensitive sexual jokes, which are found in this story, but they are there for a reason. This story is, in part, a satire of films such as Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs, which have come to be known for including such controversial and provocative elements.
     Enjoy!

Part 1: Tom’s Story


Time: Who the Fuck Knows?


The fuck is this!? These fuckin’ eggs suck! Who cooked this bullshit?”

I poked at one of the yolks cautiously with a fork. It popped, oozing its yellow… goo and its white… reminded me of a sore I once squeezed the pus out of. “Looked like somebody came in this goddamn bullshit!”

Ah, life and breakfast. All in a day's work, I guess you could say.

Who came first; the chicken or the egg? We ask ourselves every day. It's the eternal question, really, if you think about it. Also, if you don't.

But the question bears repeating: Who came first? Who came first!?


The chef, ya fuckin’ moron!”

As she stared into my eyes, something was amiss…

Her tag flashed the name Scarla, if that really was her name.

I could sense the hostility in the air was thickening and I knew directly that this savage woman was about to take off her apron, her shirt, and her blouse, and beat me with what was left of her fifty-two-year-old breasts, so I sought better in the situation than to coax her into something more of a calmness. “Do you have any kids?”

Why?”

The tip I’m gonna leave you is only a buck a kid, and one of your kids just died in my eyes.”

The badge-wearing woman named Scarla, who gave me these shitty eggs, could not help but have a look of complacency in her eyes as she suddenly switched her tune to something more airy from one that suggested she wanted to gouge out my eyes with a hairbrush she’d fucked herself with that morning. “What do you do for a living?”

Why?”

You tell me how to do my job, I want to tell you how to do yours.”

I hesitated. “I’m a door-to-door salesman.”

What do you sell?”

Fans.”

What kind of fans?”

The good kind…” I sipped my coffee. “The kind that’d chop your finger clean off.”

The kind that… blows you at night?”

That’s our special model.”

At this point, the eggs were growing cold, and sterile. But that was all right, because so was my appetite. I decided it was time to hit the bar. This woman couldn’t understand me, even though I was speaking perfect English. The scene was getting ugly and I was the only one in the damn place.

Down the aisle, I could see the little folded napkins. Quickly, I said, “Do you need help with those?” Then she turned her head to the side, and gave me a condescending look as she turned back.

Are you telling me how to do my job again?”

Check, please!”

I paid with credit, and I left no tip that day. Food costed me nine damn dollars, which I never ate a single bite of. I could have bought a liter of vodka with that. But instead, I chose to order these overcooked, overlooked, over-easy ovaries from that overly-dilapidated woman.

This lack of sleep is really starting to freak me out.

Shit, I need a drink.




Time: 1:30 A.M.


The main drag was poppin’. Prostitutes on the corner were howling at me, but I’d wasted enough money on these whores. It was time to get down to business. It’s almost 2 A.M., and I have to get to the liquor store. Somewhere there’s a bottle of Fleischmann’s with my name on it.

I don’t think I’ve slept in about two days… but who’s really keeping track? Not me.

The bum on the corner shook his cup at me. He smelled of scraped uteri and decaying fruit, like a rotten mixed-berry cocktail salad made in the back of an abortion clinic.

But he had friendly eyes, the kind of eyes that told me he was good, upstanding. So I throw in two bucks for him, and I thought… maybe this guy could use a shower.

I think I’ve found myself a drinking partner for the night.

The man was visibly shocked. Said his name was Bill and he was a Gulf War vet. He served at… well, he served, anyway… and he’d just been released. I figured, why not? The man deserves a medal. God knows I’m too lazy to get out there and defend this country.

So what the hell? Might as well throw a guy a bone once in a while.

Bill took his prosthetic leg out of his guitar case, put it on, and picked up his traveling pack.

I could tell this fuckin’ bum’d had a hard life. A bathe and a shave shouldn’t do him any harm. I think I got some leftover clothes he could put on. I’m definitely throwing out his laundry, though.

So Bill asked me, “What do you do for a living?”

I’m a door-to-door fan salesman.”

He looked around the room at my inventory. “Are these fans any good?”

I wouldn’t stick my dick in one… But we have had a few occasions… when that’s happened… So few in fact, they even made us put stickers on the things that say, ‘Do not place any appendages of corporeal extremities into the fan’… Didn’t stop anybody… Kind of guy who’d think even once about stickin’ somethin’ in there wouldn’t stop to read the damn thing, much less look up half the words on it… But at least we can’t get held responsible anymore.”

Bill turns to me with an incredulous look in his eyes, and then he smirks at me. I think he thought I was joking. I go, “Seriously… don’t stick your dick in the fans.”

I twist my head to the side. “How ‘bout a drink and a shower?... I’m not a faggot or anything, I’m just too lazy to defend this country…” I paused as I realized Bill probably had no idea what I was talking about. “What do you say we get shitfaced?”






Time: 2:00 A.M.


The woman in the liquor store was looking at Bill like he was a shoplifter. This is good for me, because she wasn’t paying any attention to my well-dressed ass. I was gonna pay for something, but the bottle of vodka in my pocket screamed at me to get out of the store. I slapped the bottle at my side to try to shut it up.

It was time for me to blow this joint. My pretentiousness had reached its peak. The woman never took her eyes off Bill; I even laughed as I walked out of the liquor store.

Bill met me at the corner and asked me why I didn’t buy anything. I told him I didn’t have to. He was still so filthy that the woman never took her eyes off of him.

I had six grand in my bank account and I was shoplifting for the hell of it.




Time: 2:30 A.M.


The apartment was bare and empty. I can’t remember the last time I was able to stomach food. I think the only thing I’ve paid for lately was booze and cat food. Bill complained about the smell of Henry’s pee. I don’t think I’d changed the litter box in a month.

I tell him to sit down, to take off his boots and relax for a moment. Then I looked through my closet for some clean clothes and a towel; something that would fit his malnourished ass.

He looked around my apartment, checking out what kind of life I live. But in the corner of my eye, I could see that he was pondering why I had nothing in my apartment but one mattress, three chairs, ten fans, and a pile of vodka bottles reaching to the top corner of the apartment ceiling.

I found the clothes and towel easily enough. While he was showering, I took five pulls off the Fleischmann’s bottle, thinking of how I was going to explain to him why I’m out at 3 in the morning looking for a homeless guy to drink with.

He probably thinks I’m a fag… or a wingnut.

But the simple matter of the truth is, I’m a whimsical kind of fellow and I do these things on the fly.

Bill was quick in the shower. Took him no more than ten minutes to finish. I believed he’d been going through some kind of withdrawal; it looked like he needed a drink. I offered him a mixer of orange juice and vodka, what most people would call a Screwdriver. I just call it a Screwed in the Head. He accepted graciously and offered me a bowl of weed. I hadn’t smoked in years but it seemed like a good enough opportunity.


Old habits die hard.


The thickness of the smoke enveloped my throat. I could feel the harsh, acidic taste rising from the bowels of my stomach. I had obviously been drinking too fast and too hard.

I put one finger up, telling Bill to hold on for a moment.

Stumbling aside, once, twice, I fell to the floor, embraced the toilet, and suddenly there was a gorgeous, violent explosion.

I set my head on top of the porcelain goddess for a moment. I counted to three, then to ten. Then I said, “Fuck it. It’s time to go.” Putting both my arms down on the ground, I pushed myself up, straightened up, returned to the living room, and proceeded to drink the vodka straight.

As soon as I sat back down in the chair, Bill looked at me quizzically. He asked if everything was alright. “Couldn’t be better.” I poured myself a half-and-half drink of orange juice and vodka. This orange juice was giving me mad heartburn.

I asked Bill if he had any more of that green stuff he was smoking. He said, “A bit.” I looked him up and down for a second, figuring out how to propose what I was about to propose.

Tell you what, guy. I’ll let you keep a fourth of that vodka for yourself if you give me what’s left of that weed… and find me someone who can get me some heavier shit.”

Bill took a whole three seconds to silently say yes.

Then we toasted.




Time: 4:00 A.M.


Bill said he knew a porch monkey who had some good cocaine, but we had to go back down to the strip to see this monkey and participate in his monkey business.

We went down to the main drag. Hardly anybody was out. The only people out at this time were wingnuts and freaks.

The Dirty Pillows was a sleazy joint, but the strippers had nice tits. Just don’t look into their faces; you might see someone you know from high school who’ll sling pussy for five bucks a hit.

I approached the bar with Bill to drown ourselves in some liquid courage. Need to find an ATM. Crack is expensive, might need to find a whole 8-ball.

Scotch on the rocks, no ice.”

The huge ape behind the counter said, “What the fuck… Are you fucking with me or are you serious?”

Totally fuckin’ serious… Hey, I need to pay cash for this piss-water. Is there an ATM in this shit-hole?”

The gigantic simian’s glazed eyes shifted over to the side of him, looking down the aisle past the dancer’s ass. “Other side of the stage, asshole.”

I thanked the gargantuan anthropoid with a nod of my head. I approached the ATM machine and punched in my PIN number. Two of the dancers’ asses were riding my sides. This piece of machinery was obviously strategically placed for getting money into panties. So I asked the lady to my right, and she looked down on me, and she said, “What do you want, sugar?”

I want this fuckin’ ATM to work.” Fumbling with my card, I slyly glanced at her as I asked her, “So how do you like it? Like…” I inserted the card forcefully, then gently, then forcefully, then… well, you get the picture… “…this?”

Wet and yellow.”

I paused. “What the fuck does that mean?”

It means…you can piss on me and fuck me in the ass for fifty bucks.”

The thought of pissing in her hair was appealing. “Do you accept crack?”

She smiled and nodded, and I told her to meet me in the alley in a half hour, and I would gladly oblige her.




Time: 4:45 A.M.


As she shook me off in the alley, I said to Calico, “There’s nothing more glorious than taking a nice piss after busting a nut… Want to come home, bitch?”

Bill approached me from behind while my cock was still out. I half-thought he was going to run off with my money. It was a good thing he showed up, because this whore was expecting payment.

Unfortunately, I had no pipe, but Bill was prepared with a car antenna he’d ripped off a Cadillac.

This was some good fuckin’ coke. I don’t think I’ve tweeked this hard for a while. But it was getting late. It was time to go back to the liquor store for a bottle of Calico Jack. I found it humorous… Calico did not.

Once again, the lady behind the counter was following Bill with her eyes, and paying no attention to me.

Stealing felt good. Made me feel like I was stepping out of the empty box that was my life.




Time: 5:30 A.M.


The crack whore had made herself right at home. She’d even emptied the litter box.

The Calico Jack and the cocaine were kicking my ass.

The crack whore took it upon herself to give Bill a patriotic blowjob. He seemed grateful. Bill gave Calico a twenty-one-cum salute, and she used one of my dirty socks to wipe it off her face. The flagpole in my pants was speaking to me, screaming for an orgy something along the lines of Ye Olde Faithful.

I asked Calico if she’d ever been gangbanged. She was compliant, if not more than willing. She blew me while Bill fucked her in the ass.

Unlike Bill, I’m a firm believer that it melts in your mouth, not in your hand, so I shot my wad as deep down her throat as possible. After it was all said and done, my Calico Jack was gone, and so was my will to live.

I needed to get fucked up again.

Bill was obviously tweeking his ass off. The fan had become an enticement by this point. I shouldn’t have tempted him. I shook my head ‘no,’ but said nothing as Bill stuck his finger within reach of the fan blades.

Bill did not scream or cry, in fact, he smiled and said to me, “This is one quality piece of machinery… We should probably hit the liquor store… and then the hospital… I lost the finger, I don’t think they’ll be able to reattach it… Well, you win some, you lose some… and I guess the fan won this time.”

As the blood sprayed onto Calico’s face, I said, “It was a pointless battle, but a fantastic idea. That was the coolest shit I’ve seen in a while. Told you that fan’d lop your finger off… We should probably go to the hospital first.”

Nah, liquor first,” said Bill, as I pulled a rubber band around his bleeding finger. He shook it at me and said, “Priorities! Goddammit, man, priorities!”

A brief silence passed. “Hey Bill... let me show you something.”

I led him into a room in my apartment that he'd never seen before. In it sat a giant fan, the size of an entire wall. On the floor, nothing but a few blooming ashtrays, falling apart slowly in a whirling dervish of smog and death.

Bill said, “Uh... I don't get it.”

I struggled for a whole five minutes to light my cigarette, seeing as the huge goddamn fan was putting out my Bic lighter every chance I took.

The cigarette caught. I exhaled. “...This is my biggest fan.”




Time: 5:46 A.M.


As me and Bill entered the liquor store, the bitch behind the counter was still watching Bill with her eyes. Needless to say, I had no problem simply stuffin’ a vodka bottle in my pocket and walking out the door. By this time I was running low on cash again, and needed to find another ATM.

So we swung by the main drag again, and past Dirty Pillows, between the fruit cocktail place and the abortion clinic or whatever, there was another ATM. I made the transaction quickly. It gave me a receipt showing my remaining balance. What convenience!

A street peddler approached us. “’Choo need, mah niggas?”

I need a raging erection,” I said through clenched teeth.

You want some Molly?”

I don’t give a fuck what her name is, what she looks like, I’ll take anybody at this point.”

At this, the peddler hoarsely croaked a cheap imitation of laughter. “I got your shit right here.” He looks back and forth, then looked straight into my eyes, tipped his head back, opened his mouth, and said “ah.” He asked for eighty.

I gave him sixty, but he never counted the money.

As we walked to the apartment, I began to flip my fucking balls off.

This shit was definitely the real deal. Bill nudged me in the side and said, “We should probably get back. Granted, you got nothin' to steal, but she is a crack whore, there’s no telling what she might pocket… Goddamn impatient bitches.”




Time: 6:30 A.M.


The sun was peeking through my blinds and the walls were breathing deeply, seemingly breathing at me, even. I suspected the Molly was spiked. This was some seriously heavy shit. I could feel my brain glazing over.

The cat was a comfort. His fur felt like silk strands between my fingers. Calico and Bill were in the corner, handling their business. I decided it was a good time to go out and get some air.


What the fuck do you do at 6 A.M. in the morning? What is there to see?


I dropped by the diner. Scarla was standing outside after her shift had ended. She looked beat. The bags under her eyes did not look polite to her. Didn’t flatter her features, to say the least. I could tell she could use a friend.

Wanna go get some coffee, bitch?”

It’s gonna take more than a cup of coffee to get in my pants.”

Why the fuck would I get into your pants?”

If the shoe fits, wear it… but in this case, it’d be the condom in my back pocket.”

How ‘bout fuck the coffee and let’s hit the bar instead?” She smiled and agreed.




Time: 7:00 A.M.


The bar was practically deserted.

The bartender was an asshole… but I like it that way. Service with a smile is phony. At least if you’re dealing with a dick, you know you’re dealing with a dick and not a dick with a smile. Call it simplicity, I call it natural.

I asked the bartender where the bathroom was. He pointed to a door that led to the alley.

The side of the dumpster was a suitable-enough urinal.

Scarla came from around the corner to offer me a helping hand, to hold my cock while I piss. There’s something satisfying in this. My prick was already getting hard as the last few drops leaked out.

I lifted up her apron and skirt and fucked her from behind by the dumpster. It was quick business, no complaints, no noise. She left directly afterwards.

When I re-entered the bar, I saw that her drink was gone. I needed to find a pick-me-up before I crashed. Crashed and burned, that is.

I decided it was time to stop pussying around, get down to the brass tacks, and get seriously fucked up.

The meth whore on the corner directed me to her dealer.

My lack of sleep was making me delusional. I needed to get to the liquor store and pick up another bottle. I’d probably pay for it this once, what without Bill with me to serve as a decoy. A half-gallon of Southern Comfort sounded perfect at this time.

I decided to walk back to my place, where obviously, Bill and Calico were passed the fuck out. Those fuckers’ve got it easy.

As for me, I didn’t have time for sleep. I have shit to do. At all hours of the night.

As I walked in the door, I noticed the smell right away. Bill had passed out and pissed himself. So much for the clean clothes I’d given him.

I kicked at his feet, trying to wake him up. He was non-responsive, but Calico stirred and gave me the finger. I mentioned the crank in my pocket and she perked right up.

Why didn’t you come back earlier?”, she asked, rubbing the cum out of her eyes.

As I cracked the bottle of Southern Comfort, Bill hoisted himself up and removed his

piss-stained clothing. I laughed as I asked Bill if he was going to stick his dick in one of the fans next. He flashed me the chopped middle finger and said, “Don’t tempt me.”

He hobbled up onto his fake leg and went to the kitchen for a few glasses, some ice, and a meth pipe.

Calico sat behind in the easy chair to the left of me. “You know some very bad people are after me at the moment, don’t you?”

I rubbed my head, feeling the creases in my skull. I never felt older in a while after being told that. “Okay… I take it you have some nigger who has a chain on you, huh?”

Tilting her head back, Calico considered me with a serious look that I’d not seen since I first met her. “So the fuck you gonna do about it? You gonna kick me out?... Perfectly understandable… Either way, some time within today or tomorrow, a Mr. Albert Dreyfuss will come by here with a very large, angry Russian.”

Russian? Like some kind of Rocky bullshit?”

Yeah, something like that. The guy would piss on his own grandma’s grave.”

At this I smiled. “Well, if this scary motherfucker does come by, we’ll see what happens. He might just go away for some money.”

You would do that for me?”

Who says I’m doing it for you?”

That’s when our eyes met. Something was dead in both sets. In that moment, we understood each other’s innate greed. She turned away and I grinned.

Bill lurched into the room with glasses and ice in his hand and a twat-eating grin on his face. He tossed me the pipe as he said, “Hey, I just thought of something really fucked up. I think you’re going to like this, man… So I stayed at my parents’ place for a week, and after a while I noticed my dad begin to rub off on me… so I said ‘get that thing out of my face’ and called child protective services!’”

Calico stood up and said, “That’s not funny, I was molested as a child.” I told her, “You were molested two hours ago… Looks like you didn’t learn a goddamn thing, now, doesn’t it?”

Fuck off, freak… I gotta go take a piss. When I get back, we better find something to do or my victimized ass is out the door.”

The bathroom door slammed as I put my lighter to the pipe. “Fuckin’ cunt can’t take a joke.”

Yeah, but she sure can take a dick.” We both laughed.

Touché.”

Calico came out of the bathroom, visibly pissed. Her bottom lip twisted downwards into a sort of sneer as she looked at Bill and me.

Bill looked at her directly in the eyes, and, with a big grin on his face, said, “Hey, Calico… so how many girls have you slept with?”

She walked towards me, and, ignoring Bill’s question, with a quick, light jab to my gut with her fourth finger and middle finger, grabbed the pipe out of my hand.

She looked into the bowl of the pipe, flicked the lighter, said through clenched teeth.

Fuck of a lot more than you have,” and took a giant blast.

CRACK!

Get on the fucking ground, you faggots!” The gun told me I should probably listen to this giant fucking asshole, so I lied on the ground.

Bill did not.

Who the fuck are you!?,” said Bill. I had a pretty good guess of who it was.

We should have seen this coming.

In a situation like this, it’s best not to care about what’s going to happen next. That’s

how you panic and get your ass killed. No, best not to think about it.

Bill, shut the fuck up.” Bill sneered and spit in the face of the fucking huge gook in front of us.

Naw, piss on that zipperhead! Bustin’ into my good friend’s apartment, acting like

we were fucking niggers… I don’t think so!”

The gook wipes the spit off his fishy-headed mug, steps forward, and, pushing his right leg out, another CRACK!, followed by a third. Bill wobbles to the right, hissing and spitting, screeching, “Fucking chink motherfucker, you’re dead!”

I sighed, wondering when Calico was going to say something. Then I realized that she isn’t gonna say shit, ‘cause she was gone to the bathroom as soon as the first crack happened on the door, the meth pipe with her, the selfish bitch.

I looked to the door, and there was the gook and her… What the fuck? Asshole has to be over eighty!... Goddamn, man, some guys just don’t know when they’re too useless to the point where they’ve become fixtures in this shit-hole world.

Get my bitch out here now!” His voice, acidic and putrid, the kind of voice that, when you first hear it, it reminds you there are some people in this world you’d just rather either get away from, or else go after first. Either instance, you need to remain calm, collected, and tell yourself that when this evil fuck turns his back, you can’t let down your guard, because that’s what they want. They want you to trust them, so then you’re easier to extort, swindle, and control.

Bottom line, it’s easier for them to stick their knife in when you turn your back. Fucking bitch would have been useless. She’d freak, get pissed, or comply, and reason dictates to me that she wasn’t gonna have any of that shit.

Good girl.

How ‘bout you take your bitch off my guy, and I’ll explain that your actions will either A, end ugly, B, end ugly with someone hurt, or C, it’ll be fucking peaches and candy canes for all of us. So you can get the fuck out of my apartment, and I can continue to fuck your bitch, who I want to buy permanently.

Every man needs a hole to fuck… Circle-‘a-life shit.”

I opted my hand into the air, signaling that everything was fine and dandy, even though that was far from the truth at this moment. But, at a time like this, I wasn’t going to take chances with formalities.

In what seemed to be three quick strides, the gook was beside me with his foot raised back. The pain in my ribs was instantaneous and blinding.

The kick was hard enough to throw me onto my side… but out of the corner of my eye, I saw the most badass shit I ever witnessed in my whole life.

In a matter of seconds, Bill was across the room, knife in hand. The gook must have seen me look, but, as he turned around, Bill shoved his knife directly through his elbow, snatched the gun out of his hand, and blew his fucking brains out. Unfortunately for all of us, there was a fan directly behind him.

Needless to say, my apartment was fucked.

Leaning on his cane, the evil old fuck slowly placed his hand into his pocket, pulled out a silk handkerchief, wiped off his forehead, and looked around the room. “I think we can come to some sort of agreement… perhaps we should sit down for this.” The pimp gave himself the pleasure of finding his own chair, which he sat down on cross-legged, and gestured to us to take our seats.

Bill remained standing with the gun still in his hand. Bill’s face showed fifty kinds of pissed-off. He was obviously not the one to fuck with right now, so I ignored him for the time being. I thought he could use some space.

I slowly stood up, walked towards the couch, and carefully sat down. The ancient asshole looks at me calmly, contemplating what kind of character I am. Without blinking or giving any sign of emotion, I looked him straight in the eye and said, “Five hundred.”

In a toneless voice, he replied, “That won’t even replace my fucking slant-eyed freak-of-

nature you just shot dead… Good help is hard to come by these days. Chinamen aren’t cheap. You must understand this, right?”

My landlord’s gonna shit backwards when she sees the door to my fucking apartment… not to mention the dead chink and the red wall I’ve got to deal with in my living room. It seems we both have our messes… I’ll give you a grand and you can leave my apartment with your face still attached.”

The wicked bastard nodded slightly, saying “Done.”

I looked to where Bill was standing. “Bill, if this asshole moves, blow his fucking face off. Don’t take your eyes away from this guy. If he moves one fucking step, shoot him right there.”

In my room, there’s a slight amount of cash that I’ve stashed away. Not for any particular reason other than having it handy. I counted out ten Bens from a stack in my shoebox and neatly placed the box back on the shelf in my closet.

Tossing the money on the table, I said, “Now get out.”

Rolling the money in his hands, he places it in his pocket, stands up, and walks to the door without a sound. Looking at Bill, I said, “Hey…” Bill lowered the gun. “We need to get this fuck out of here. And lock the goddamn door for fuck’s sake.”




Time: 11:00 A.M.


As I rummaged through my closet, I realized that I had nothing but my suits left. That was fine by me because it seemed like appropriate attire for the situation.

I put the suit on in front of my full-length mirror.

Oh, shit… when was the last time I fed the cat?” I whispered to myself.

I walked into the living room, my hands down to my cufflinks. These damn things will never click right. That’s when I heard a faint licking sound.

It took me a second to realize what it was after putting two and two together.

There was Henry, stoically lapping up brain matter from the gaping canyon in fatass’s face.

Huh… I guess there’s some things in life that just take care of themselves.”

Calico emerged from the bathroom with a look of disgust on her face. She steps back and then giggles. “You guys are sweethearts. I don’t know how many ass-whoopin’s I took from this guy.”

Good. You won’t have any problem shoving him into the trunk of my car then, will you?”

No problem. It would be a pleasure. So… where’s the plastic bags and some bedsheets?”




Time: 1:00 P.M.


The methamphetamine had given me Superman-strength. Pushing the relatively empty dumpster to underneath my window was a breeze. I said softly to myself, “I could spin this shit on my penis,” and gave Bill the thumbs-up and a big smile.

The Asian’s already cavernous face collided with the corner of the dumpster, creating a large thump, a crack, and a splat. It was kind of like dropping a melon off a parking garage.

Bill grinned energetically as he gave me the thumbs-up back. I have him the thumbs back down.

His aim was way off.

Getting the Asian’s body out of the trash was not an easy task, seeing as Calico was doing all the heavy lifting. I mean, I’m not about to ruin a perfectly good suit over this bullshit.

Thankfully, I live in the type of neighborhood where people mind their own fucking business. Everybody knows snitches get stitches.

After Calico rolled the body out of the dumpster, I helped her carry it to the trunk.

Pushing that dumpster was easier than lifting this fat piece of shit.

Concerning the bullshit involving the gross, sticky mess in the living room, considering the circumstances, I’m gonna let the cat take care of it.

I slammed the trunk shut as I began to toy with the idea of getting a motel.

So…” plodded Calico, her eyes darting back and forth from my face, to the trunk, to the thin trail of slope-blood leading from the dumpster to my car, “where are we gonna dump this chink-headed fuck?”

I paused and looked into her eyes. “Who said anything about dumping him?”




Time: 1:15 P.M.


Calico and I went back up to my room. I shoved my key in the lock and the door swung open. I forgot it was broken.

Jesus Christ, this place looks like someone made a fruit cocktail salad in the back of an abortion clinic and forgot to put the lid on the blender.”

Bill sat against the wall between the pile of vodka bottles and the boxes of fans, glancing at me out of the corner of his eye. He pet Henry, who was nonchalantly lapping up pieces of gray matter. “Yeah… well… so you guys get the body into the trunk all right?”

Yeah,” I said as I lit up the meth pipe. “We got to go do something, though.” I exhaled. “We’ll just be back in a few minutes… just chill here for a while, make yourself at home… And for God’s sakes, put a fucking chair against the door or something. Jesus.”

I tossed him the pipe. “Sure thing, man.”

Come on, Calico, blast that fucker and let’s get out of here… This’ll only take a second.”




Time: 1:30 P.M.


I started up the car. Calico sat in the back.

The lazy cunt.

I drove a couple blocks away and parked the car. Get it out of sight, in case anybody recognized it.

After parking, some errant bastard almost hit me with his piece of shit Chevette. “Hey, I'm Walken here!”

We headed back to the apartment on foot. I picked up a bottle of water at a gas station while Calico stood outside and smoked.




Time: 1:40 P.M.


Calico finished her cigarette as she leaned against the dumpster in the parking lot of my

complex. I stood over the trail of blood and poured the bottle of water over it.

Just then, a black-and-white rolled up. “What’cha doin’ there, sir?”

Shit!”, I thought. “We’re sure fucked now!”

As Calico walked towards me and faced the pig, she put on the shifty eyes and an embarrassed look. “Uh… I’m on my period, officer… M-my boyfriend here was just cleaning it up.”

The hammer arched his eyebrow and looked at me and Calico quizzically.

Thinking quickly, Calico squinched up her cunt muscles and shot a bright red tampon at the asphalt underneath her from up inside her skirt.

The cop’s eyes bugged out as if the sight of the tampon on the ground gave him a flashback to decades of beating coons to a bloody pulp in alleys all over the city.

All, right, folks, you have a nice day, now.” He sped off.

I could barely contain my laughter as I waited for the donut-munchin’ motherfucker to get out of earshot. I belted out heartily.

Shut up,” she snipped.

I didn’t know you were on your period!”

Shut up.”

Oh, so I’m your boyfriend now?”

Shut the fuck up!”

You didn’t tell me you weren’t wearing any panties!”

Jesus Christ, let’s just go inside, okay?”

No, I want to know what else you’re hiding from me, Calico!”

God, you’re so immature.”

Did you fuck that dead gook while I bought that water?” I chucked the empty water bottle into the bloody dumpster as Calico punched me in the shoulder. I laughed. “Hold on a second, I gotta move this dumpster back where it was real quick…”





Time: 1:50 P.M.


I bet you’re achin’ to get into that bathroom,” I said to Calico as we stood at the door to my apartment.

You’re such an asshole.”

I stood there silently and looked at her. “Drip… drip… drip…”

Open the fucking door already!”

I unlocked the door and pushed it.

THUNK!

Oh, yeah… BILL!... Bill, get this goddamn chair out of the way, post-haste! We got a bleeder out here!” Calico sighed and rolled her eyes.

A rustling of wood and carpet, then a creaking sound. “What’s up?” Calico shoved her way past him and into the bathroom. Bill’s eyes widened. He regained his composure as I chuckled silently to myself. “What?”, he asked.

Nothing.” I sat down on the couch and lit up the crank again. The faucet came on in the bathroom as I noticed Henry, bloody as all hell, continuing to do what he does best.

I passed the pipe to Bill as Calico walked in with her hands on her hips. She looked around at the mess and sighed.

Yeah,” I said as Bill handed the pipe back, “I know how you feel. Can’t earn your keep…” I lit and inhaled. “The bloody pussy’s handling the clean-up… He’s sure givin’ your bloody pussy a run for its bloody money.” I laughed a cloud of meth smoke at Calico’s face.

She snatched the pipe from my hand and sparked it up casually.

Quite the feisty one today, aren’t we?”

I told you, I’m on my period.”

Told, my ass!”

Calico tossed the pipe underhand towards the wall over Bill’s head. As he fumbled to catch it without burning himself, Calico exhaled and said, “You still haven’t told me what we’re gonna do with the body.”

Yeah, what gives?”, Bill said.

I held up my hand. “Hey, hey, chill… all right?” I let the room settle, to let them know everything was under control.

In about three hours, we’re gonna pay a visit to a friend of mine downtown, and he’s gonna take care of it… So don’t you two worry about a thing.”

Calico paused and leaned in. “What… what are we gonna do ‘til then?”

I heaved a sigh of “I don’t fuckin’ know” as I stood up. I walked into the kitchen, opened the liquor cabinet, pulled out a bottle of red wine, uncorked it, and went to the window.

Bill looked eager. “Hey, what year is that?”

I leaned out the window and chucked the bottle into the dumpster. It shattered loudly.

When covering your tracks, it’s most diligent to do so nonchalantly, gradually, and through the use of subterfuge.

I pulled another bottle out of the cabinet. “Fuck if I know, but this one’s a sixty-nine.”

As Bill opened his mouth, Calico elbowed him in the gut, snatching the pipe and lighter out of his hands. Bill let out an agonized groan, instead of whatever stupid fucking innuendo he was about to use to demean Calico. “Good girl,” I said.

She tossed me the pipe. “Bill, do you think you can get us some acid this time of day?” I flicked the lighter.

Bill grimaced as he held his stomach, his face and chest lurched forward, and expelled a groan of, “Uh, I can make some calls.” He coughed heavily.

You do that, buddy… you do that.” I tossed the still-hot pipe at the floor by his feet as he collapsed on top of it. Bill belted out an agitated scream as Calico leapt up, gave his fat backside a rolling shove, and reached for the pipe as he coughed and rolled back over the spot onto Henry’s tail.

Henry let out a disturbed wail and went back to gobbling up tiny bits of flesh from off the wall. I went to the toolbox to look for a Phillips-head.

Turning one of the fans into a high-powered fuck robot seemed like a perfect way to pass the time while Bill tried to find us some doses.




Time: 2:45 P.M.


I yanked a length of duct tape as Calico held the dildo perpendicular to the center of the fan.

I glanced at Bill, talking to his connection over my phone. In my mind, I heard him say, “More like perpen-dick-ular.”

I chuckled. “What?”, Bill asked.

Nothing… Hey, so we need to figure out a way to cut the blades off of this thing. That shit’ll chop your pussy clean off, y’know.”

I know, you’ve told me like a hundred times.”

You do… Oh, perfect… Uh, hold on a sec, I’ll check. Hey, how much did you guys want?”

For fuck’s sake, Bill, we’re bus-… Oh, you found some… Cool… Uh… I don’t know… Ten-strip oughta do it, I guess.”

Ten… yeah.” I instructed Calico to hold the dick more firmly.

Ah, memories.

Is fifty bucks cool?”

I was absorbed in trying to tape the dildo down more sturdy. “Uh, yeah, sure, man… whatever.”

Yeah… Okay, I’ll be around soon… Thanks, man… Later.” He hung up the phone. “Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding!”

Calico and I held onto the dildo and looked at each other. “Jackass,” I was certain we both were thinking.

Hey, Bill, why don’t ya make yourself useful, and go over by the toolbox and bring me some more duct tape, will ya?”




Time: 4:30 P.M.


Calico sat up and down onto the oily, spinning cock mounted to the center of one of my biggest fans. I sat in the chair, leaning against the door, watching her, and beating my meat.

A rapid pounding two inches behind my head made my body jerk forward, causing the chair to fall onto all fours as I shot my load onto my face and chest. Calico nearly killed herself throwing her bloody pussy off the whirring dick.

I stood up, moved the chair out of the way, and opened the door for Bill. “What the fuck took you so long?”

Bill looked at me with wide-open eyes, and slowly said, “I don’t know, maaan… why are you covered in cum?”

Ah, ol’ twat-face over here was fuckin’ herself and I nutted everywhere… Are you trippin’ already? You motherfucker.”

It’s okay, man, I only took three.” He plopped down on the couch and held out the bag of doses as I wiped off. Bill glanced around the room with a child-like look of wonder and over-stimulation as I put my pants on.

Calico panted heavily as her quivering pussy straddled the greased-up tornado of cock.

I looked at my watch. 4:35 P.M..

Fuck!”

Calico fell, her whore ass hitting the edge of the grill of the fan. “Goddammit!... Don’t fucking do that again!”

Sorry, bitch… Hey, we need to get out of here. It’s time to pay a visit to my Russian friend across town.”

Can I come?”, Calico asked.

Well, judging by your record over the last hour and a half…”

Bill, shut the fuck up,” Calico and I said in unison.

Sure, Calico. Powder up, and… get your twat on straight, or whatever… we gotta get there at 5:00 on the dot.”

More like 5:00 on the period.”




Time: 4:55 P.M.


Calico and I began to balls as I parked in the lot of Slavic Vaclav’s Pan-Eurasian Ethnic Specialty Meatery. Bill was peaking.

The last customer of the day was exiting with a fresh pack of dried cured echidna pussies as Vaclav locked up for the night.

I rapped at the window of the door. Vaclav looked up. “Tom!” He quickly unlocked the door and ushered the three of us inside.

He locked the door behind us. “Has been ages, good friend!” He greeted me excitedly with a friendly kiss on each cheek.

And here I thought you weren’t a fag,” said Bill.

Jeez, Tom, why didn’t you tell me you were bisexual?”

Vaclav looked at Calico sternly for a brief moment, and smacked her right across the face. She looked at him timidly as tears began to well up in her eyes.

Vaclav stared back at her. He glanced at me. I sighed nervously. “Wha’s matter, you no like getting slept in face?” Without missing a beat, Vaclav grabbed a few items off the shelf. “Is okay. No cry, pretty whore girl. Is begin of sexy time!” Calico began to calm down as he shoved the items at her tits and said, “Here sausage and olive oil. We go into meat freezer, you put oil on sausage… You fuck esshole with sausage, eh!?” He slapped her across the face again, only much harder this time.

Calico perked right back up, her face beaming. She snarled a deviant, brazen smile that was rife with signs of the kind of sexual repression that only half an hour away from the spinning cock-fan robot could possibly instill in a human being. “Can I… can I have some scissors to cut the edge off the plastic wrap?”

Oh, no… no, silly whore girl…” he waved his finger in her face. “You fuck through pain, eh? Is good!” She squeezed him tightly, putting the sausage and the bottle of olive oil around his back. He put his hand on her shoulder blade as he winked at me. I winked back.

Women are put off by only a certain level of degradation. Knowing exactly how much abuse turns them back on again is a subtle art. An art of which Vaclav was the Picasso.

Come, come! We go to meat freezer! Is party!”




Time: 5:05 P.M.


Bill sat on a crate in the freezer while he moved the oiled-up sausage in and out of Calico’s ass. Vaclav and I stood and chatted, our breath hanging in the air.

So, Vinny, the reason why I came here today is because I’ve got some of that,” I leaned in, “rare Vietnamese monkey meat…,” I stood erect and arched my eyebrows, “that you’re always looking for?”

Vaclav paused. “Ah, yes, my friend. Always looking for… rare Vietnamese monkey meat… Hey, why you use code? Nobody here get suspicious. War man and pussy girl know what’s go on, is good?”

Oh, yeah…” I scratched my head. “Shit, Vinny, I guess I’m being a bit too cautious.”

Bill used both hands to spin the sausage around inside Calico’s ass as she moaned and adjusted to feeling of the cold, wet floor against her knees, toes, and forearms. “Hey, why’d you call him Vinny? The sign outside says ‘Slavic Vaclav’.”

Ah, yes, war man… Is come from Vaclav, I change name to Wenceslas, Tom here shorten ‘Wenceslas’ to Vinny. Is good?”

Bill continued to thrust the meat as he threw Vaclav the kind of empty, bewildered stare you could only get from a guy peaking on some classic sunshine acid. “Yeah… I remember this one time… ‘s fuckin’ this Russian girl?… in this alley once, and it was like… oh, man… I’m all, ‘take it, bitch!’, and she’s all, ‘Oh, yeah, I don’t even know what the fuck you’re sayin’ to me, ‘cause I talk all, like, Cyrillic and whatever?... and I’m like, ‘yeah, you like that dick, don’t ya, whore?’, and she’s all, ‘hammer my sickle’ and junk…” Bill chuckled. “It was awesome.”

Vinny and I looked at each other, feeling robbed of the last thirty seconds of our lives. “Your friend butcher story… in Soviet Russia, story butchers you.”

I laughed. “In-deed.”

Soap and Mirrors (A Short Story)

 “Soap and Mirrors"

(or "Espuma y Espejos ["Foam and Mirrors"])

or "Foam" or “The Eve of St. George”


by Joseph W. Kopsick







     A warm, lively wind swept across the plains. It was a lonely Thursday evening, in the middle of January in 1935 – before the Great Trouble – in the sleepy hamlet of Almohada. The Feast of St. Agnes was fast approaching.

     In the rectory of the local Catholic parish high school, Padre Salvatore Sábado sat preparing his plans for the remainder of his teaching semester. These included lessons on the liturgy, and the skills and values necessary to start a family.

     Naturally - with some of the students planning to join the priesthood, and others wishing to remain laymen and marry - their interest in the reading material often had to compete for attention against their interest in one another.

     Father Sábado needed to find a way to get his studying nuns and priests, and his overly talkative students aspiring to marry, to focus on both sets of material. He also needed to plan the class's field trip for St. George's Day, in April, just two weeks before the seniors would graduate and come into the adult world.

     He resolved to make it unforgettable.

_________________________

     The next morning, before his students began their weekend, Padre Sábado asked the class, “Who can tell me the significance of the Feast of St. Agnes, coming up this weekend?”

     The arm of Maria Elena, studying to become a nun, darted high into the air. He called on her. “It is a feast to honor the life and sacrifice of the martyr St. Agnes of Rome.” She adjusted her large, thick-rimmed glasses with a single forefinger.

     “Very good, Sister Maria. And can anyone tell me the meaning of the Eve of St. Agnes, celebrated on the previous evening?” No answer came. “Nobody?”

     Finally he explained. “St. Agnes of Rome is celebrated as a patron saint of women, and of children, and of their protection. She is also a 'Heavenly Match-Maker' of sorts!”

     He leaned in, towards where most of the girls sat, and began to whisper: “Young ladies who pray to God through St. Agnes, on the evening before her feast, will meet their soul mate. All you have to do is stand at your mirror and say his name, while reciting the rosary, and offering an oblation to St. Agnes.”

     The students, especially the girls, were astonished and enthralled. Each sought out immediately, prattling on with one another about for whom they would pray. The studying nuns, even, were scandalized, but fascinated! A heavenly matchmaker? And the Holy Mother Church approved? Who could have known!?

_________________________

     Father Sábado's plan worked perfectly.

     The girls returned from the Feast of St. Agnes weekend, better friends with one another than ever before. And the laity and the studying priests began to socialize with one another more often, as all of the students had something to talk about.

     The subjects of love and religion were finally being taught in conjunction with one another, as Christ intended.

     This enabled the laymen to see a purpose for their religious studies, while the studying nuns and priests came to see the purpose for some students to refrain from entering the clergy. For if all men were priests, as Brother Francis noted, the human race could not continue.

_________________________

     “Who can tell me the significance of the Feast of St. George?”

     Maria Elena's hand shot upwards. “Someone else, this time”, said Father Sábado. “Come on!”

     Roberto hesitantly lifted his hand into the air. “Was he the dragon dude?” The class snickered.

     “Alright, none of that”, snipped the priest. He paused and began to pace the room. “St. George is a patron saint of the military, and one of the Fourteen Holy Helpers. He is also the patron saint of Catalonia and Aragon. And yes, Roberto, he is often depicted slaying a dragon.”

     He took a long breath and sighed. “...Sister Maria, would you mind telling us the meaning of the Feast of St. George?”

     “Um... it's a holiday in April when men and women exchange gifts of books and flowers... to commemorate St. George?”

     “Good, good. And class, do you know how we celebrate the Eve of St. George?” A hush filled the room.

     “With a field trip to Barcelona!” The students cheered.

     “Now, now-”, he said, calming the class down, “This will be a studying field trip, almost a pilgrimage of sorts. By day we will be visiting cathedrals, learning history, and assisting local charities to give alms from the Church. At night you'll all be staying at a hotel.”

     The students were thrilled. Roberto lifted his hand and piped up: “But what about the Eve of St. George? Is there a ceremony? Do we have to give an offering?”

     “You'll all be filled-in when we get there. As for now, the priests and nuns are dismissed for lunch. Everyone else please stay for one extra minute; I just need one simple question answered. None of you are in trouble.”

     The students laughed. The priests and nuns chatted as they shuffled out.

     “Remember that this field trip is from Saturday morning to Sunday afternoon. Please remember to save your Saturday!

     The door slammed closed. The priest grabbed a pen and paper from off his desk.

     “And also, please, boys, remember to bring a rose for your love. Girls, again, you will bring the gift of a book for the one you admire.” Some of them took a note down, others merely nodded.

     “I know that some of you have already begun dating-” Some students gasped. “I repeat, you are not in trouble. Remember what I taught you about St. Agnes and St. Frances.” The class calmed down.

     “I need you to tell me - in confidence, as your teacher - whether any of you are planning to marry. Or, if you are not yet, I need to know if there is anyone in the class whom you like.” His students giggled.

     “Please write your name and theirs onto a small sheet of paper, and place it face-down on your desk. Ask me to be excused, individually, when you are done, and I will collect it and allow you go to lunch.”

     The students complied.

_________________________

     That Friday night, at his home, on the outskirts of town, Father Salvatore Sábado sat, smoking a pipe, laughing quietly to himself, as he meticulously planned the hotel accommodations and lodging arrangements for his students.

     “I'm going to need a lot more shaving cream.”

_________________________

     The Feast of St. George weekend finally arrived.

     After parting with their suitcases in the hotel lobby that Saturday afternoon, the students toured cathedrals and gave alms. They arrived back at the hotel that evening, tired, to a curious sight: the mirrors in their bathrooms were not only so large that they covered the entire walls; they were also covered with white foam!

     While setting up her beauty accessories at the bathroom vanity, Sister Maria Elena's hand came close to a corner of the mirror that had no lather upon it (which she supposed was shaving lather).
     When her pinky finger errantly touched upon the mirror, she noticed that there was no gap between her finger and its reflection. 
Maria Elena thought this quite strange; where there would usually be a pane of glass, between the reflective part of the mirror and its surface, there was nothing.
     And 
so, she mentioned it to the other nuns, who were all sleeping together in the same room. They thought nothing of it, however, and instead they flocked around the letter which Father Sábado had left for them on the bathroom counter (of which he had left a copy in each and every room):


     “Before midnight, stand at the mirror, and pray to God through St. George.

     Right before the stroke of midnight, make yourself as naked as the day God made you.

     Then light two candles, place them near the mirror, and then brush away the foam.

     Then - if you are pure of heart - the one who loves you the most will appear to you."


     As instructed, so each student did.

     And they were so excited, at the chance of meeting their soul mate (or their Creator) that, by the time Sunday arrived, some of them scarcely noticed - through the wall of thick foam - that what was in front of them was no mirror at all, but a simple pane of glass.


     And that is why, directly after the stroke of midnight, on the Feast of St. George, in April 1935, a thunderous, shattering applause was heard all throughout that hotel in Barcelona, though not a single cloud was in the sky.

     The sound was of crackling glass.

     For, to each student, the sight of their true lover through the mirror, was too overwhelming and heavenly, to greet with anything other than that thunder.

     And then, the sound that came next: “Oh, God! Oh, God!, Oh, God!”

_________________________

     And while all this was going on, Padre Salvatore Sábado reclined innocently on the sofa, in the room opposite Maria Elena and the other nuns.

     While he innocently chomped on his cigar and downed his whiskey, Father Sábado gazed upon Maria's beauty unespied.

     
Standing there, with all the others, they shed their clothes, their faith in God, and their innocence, all at once.


     As a peace overcame Father Sábado, Father Sábado overcame himself. Finally, there was some foam on his side of the mirror.


     He bolted upwards, spilling some of his drink.

     “Oh fuck, parent-teacher conferences!”


The End

Which States Want to Hold an Article V Constitutional Convention?

     The map below shows which states have passed resolutions applying for a convention of states to address needed changes to the Constitution. Such action is allowed, and regulated by, Article V of the Constitution for the United States.



   In my opinion, volunteers wishing to support a convention should call state legislators in those states, in that order, because that will make it easier to get a larger number of states faster and earlier. Rapid spread of pro-convention sentiment could create a snowball effect and increase the chances of getting the 34 states required (2/3 of the states) to invoke a constitutional convention.

     To ensure maximum success and efficiency, I would recommend that states be courted for support in three stages:
     1. Stage 1 (Wyoming, West Virginia, Idaho, South Dakota, Kentucky, Nebraska, and Montana)
     2. Stage 2 (Kansas, South Carolina, Iowa, Ohio, North Carolina, and Wisconsin)
     3. Stage 3 (Pennsylvania, Nevada, Michigan, Minnesota, New Hampshire, Maine, and Virginia).
     That is the order in which Trump was supported by the states likely to support a constitutional convention, but have not passed resolutions indicating interest in holding a convention.

     I have assumed that the states that didn't go for Biden, would be the states most likely to support a convention, because there would be no reward for the most strongly pro-Biden states to hold such a convention, as it would challenge the power of incoming President Biden.

Joe Biden's Son Hunter Does Drugs Next to a Little Girl and a Stripper Pole

      The photograph you see below was obtained through a Twitter user whom the author of this blog wishes to keep anonymous, for the sake of that person's safety.
     The photo - which I found out about in the late evening of January 14th, 2021 - depicts Hunter Biden, the son of president-elect Joe Biden.
     Hunter Biden appears to have a stripper pole, a table which likely has drugs on it, and what appears to be a little girl, in front of him.




     The text on the top of this image is probably a bar that someone's iPhone attached to the image while they were taking a screenshot of the photo of Biden.
     It is probably fair to assume, from that text, that the original photo of Biden and the girl, were taken no later than July 13th, 2018 (unless the person's iPhone calendar and/or clock were set incorrectly).

     Some Twitter users have commented on this photo, and insisted that it is fake, or that it is a Photoshop. However, they have supplied no evidence that that is the case; only conjecture. Furthermore, the shadows and light sources all seem to be facing in the same direction, which would indicate it's probably not edited.
     Some have even claimed that this is not a picture of Hunter Biden. They have probably forgotten that if Hunter Biden ever goes a day or two without shaving, he will not look like the heavily made-up puppet that he looked in late 2020 like when he was stumping for his father.
     For reference, here are pictures of Hunter Biden in full makeup, and with a day or two's growth of beard.






     Hunter Biden can look very different from himself on a different day. Furthermore, this is not the first time that scandalous photos of Hunter Biden have leaked, which make him look like the drug addict he is.







     Don't forget who we are talking about here! Hunter Biden was discharged from the Navy for his cocaine addiction.
     Democrats defend him by saying "Everyone has problems, he's admitted to it." Well it would seem that he's done cocaine while letting a little girl press her head to his shirtless chest! Doing cocaine around children and a stripper pole is not just "a private citizen having some fun". A child is involved and she needs to be protected, because she couldn't have consented to be in that situation.

     We are also talking about a man who had an affair with his dead brother's wife, and then left her and her children. 

     And he had a secret illegitimate daughter, and initially refused to get a paternity test and had to be sued.
     And a mysterious job on the board of the "Ukrainian" energy company Burisma. And a mysterious connection with China.
     Are we really supposed to believe that this adulterous cocaine addict who got discharged from the military - who told his nieces and nephews "Hey kids, I'm not your uncle anymore, I'm your father now" and then left his sister-in-law - is incapable of coercing a minor into sexual activity?


     Additionally, there were rumblings in the press in the fall of 2020, about six weeks before the election, that Hunter Biden had been tied to human trafficking rings in Ukraine. According to the following article, a Senate report stated that Hunter Biden paid non-resident Russian and/or Eastern European women for sex; women who appeared connected to prostitution rings.
     Well, maybe now, we know what that was about! Could the girl in the photo at the top of this article, be an "underage Ukrainian prostitute" (a/k/a child sex trafficking victim)? Has Hunter Biden used his six-figure salary from Burisma to buy the children of poor couples in Ukraine?

     But let's not jump the gun. How do we even know that any of this is happened Ukraine, anyway? Burisma's headquarters are in Cyprus. This could have happened in any country. The girl looks either white or Hispanic, or perhaps Asian, so it's hard to determine the girl's country of origin solely by looking at this photo.


     Other Biden defenders have pointed to the girl's hand, and her "gray hair", to claim that the girl is actually an old woman. That reminds me of Alan Dershowitz's story; that he didn't have sex with any underage girls, he just "got massages from an old Russian woman".

     First off, the girl's hair is not "gray". There are certain portions of her black hair, which are reflecting the white light that is coming from the left side of the photo. White light on black hair will often produce gray tones in certain areas, some more than others. What you are seeing is the light reflecting off of her black hair.


     Biden's defenders have pointed to the girl's long fingers, saying that it looks like an old woman's hand. Well, if that's true, then where is the rest of the old woman's body? Are we to believe that this girl, with the soft features on her face and her small body, is actually an old woman?
     Maybe she has long fingers because she's emaciated. Maybe her family is so poor and hungry that they chose to sell her to Hunter Biden for sex. Maybe the fake fingernails she's wearing, make her fingers look longer than they normally would.
     It is not my job to explain to you why a little girl's hands don't look like a little girl's hands should! Some girls are thinner than others. Some live in war-torn regions that experience hunger and poverty.
     Furthermore, it is not a little girl's job to prove that she is not of age, for you to stop defending her rapist. If you say that a little girl must be an old woman, because part of her looks old, or because she is wearing the kind of press-on fingernails or acrylics that an adult might wear, then you are blaming a child for getting raped based on what she was wearing when it happened.



     Anyone who has ever seen a child before, should be able to recognize that there is no way this girl is older than 15. She might even be as young as nine or ten. If she is an adult, then she is severely emaciated, and her condition should be a concern, as well as how Hunter Biden got a hold of her. Either way, a crime has been committed.
     Hunter Biden is handling girls who are not his daughters, holding them close to his shirtless chest, and doing drugs in their presence. What the stripper pole is doing there, and whether it's really a stripper pole, we can't be sure. But something is obviously up.


     This latest photograph may also explain what Hunter Biden was talking about, in the audio that was leaked last fall. In that audio, Biden said something about his estranged ex-wife's complaints about him. His comments included complaints that his ex-wife was concerned that he appeared shirtless in a photograph with his daughter.
     Hunter Biden's daughters are named Naomi and Maisy. Naomi was born in 1993, and is 28 years old now. Maisy was born in 2001, and is 20 years old now. If we assume that the photo of Hunter Biden and the girl was taken no later than July 2018, then Maisy was no older than 17, and Naomi was no older than 25.
     This means it's extremely unlikely that the girl in the photo is Hunter Biden's daughter Naomi, because she would have been older and larger than the girl in the photo at the time. It's possible, because of the girl's size, that it's Maisy, somewhere between the age of 12 and 17. But does this girl really look like Maisy Biden?



     The girl in the photo is not one of Hunter Biden's daughters. At least it's not one of the ones he knows about!
     But in all seriousness, it's probably not his secret daughter in Arkansas either. How he would have been allowed near her in 2018 or earlier, cannot be easily explained. Additionally, that daughter was born in 2018, the same year (probably) that the photo of Biden and the black-haired girl was taken.

     The black-haired girl is definitely not one of Hunter Biden's daughters. The soft features of her face, and her small size - including her thin fingers - shows that she is not an old woman, but a child, who (in my opinion) appears to be somewhere between 8 and 13 years old.


     Now what about those drugs on the table? There is clear evidence that Biden had been smoking cigarettes, which is not illegal. But there may also be a marijuana joint, and a syringe, on the table in front of Biden and the girl. And the stripper pole.



     The appearance of a stripper pole, and drugs on the table - and the fact that Biden is shirtless, pressing the face of a girl who is not his daughter, to his naked chest - should make it clear what is going on here.

     Hunter Biden is either a kidnapper who does drugs near children and doesn't have sex with them, or else he is a full-on child rapist.

     In all likelihood, he is probably using his power and money to pay poor people in Eastern Europe to let him rape their daughters.



     We should also bear in mind that this is not the first time that one of the Biden men has been caught red-handed touching children inappropriately.

     I have documented - through numerous articles, images, and videos - that Hunter Biden's father Joe, the president-elect of the United States, pinched a little girl's nipple live on C-SPAN during a congressional swearing-in ceremony on January 3rd, 2015.
