It’s the Ides* of Quintillis (or “15th of July” for those using the Gregorian Calendar) and that’s just as good an excuse as any to publish a whole bunch of new memes.
Unlike other websites who compile and publish memes created by other people in order to drive traffic add a touch of humor to their site I create almost all the memes I publish and only occasionally publish a meme from someone else. |

Soapbox Time: In my worldview there are two biological genders: Male and Female. Anything else is simply someone’s opinion. For example just because I feel I’ve won the Lottery doesn’t mean I can demand everyone believe that’s true and pay me a jackpot. Don’t kid yourselves: Archeologists digging up your bones 500 years from now won’t know your opinions but will know your gender. Why? Because of the Science of Biology.
Some Context: Apparently someone left a bag of cocaine somewhere in the White House, and the FBI and White House Security can’t determine who it was despite visitors having to submit to security checks, visitors logs, personal searches, magnetometers, video surveillance, pressure pads in the floors, and storing their personal belongings in individually numbered and keyed lockers before entering and while moving through one of the most secure buildings on the planet. Maybe this quiz might help identify the culprit.
FYI: They may spit because they’re annoyed, securing their position in a social hierarchy, trying to establish dominance, feeling threatened, don’t like the taste of what they ate, or have an upset stomach. Whatever the cause be sure to stand well back and don’t get too friendly with them!
BTW: The person in the photo is Dylan Mulvaney, former Price Is Right™ contestant and brand-destroying influencer who feels they are a woman.
Some Context: On the 4th of July Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield of “Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream” celebrated America’s independence by reminding Americans we stole land from the Native American Indians and called for the return of Mount Rushmore and the Black Hills to the Lakota Tribe, writing “The faces on Mount Rushmore are the faces of men who actively worked to destroy Indigenous cultures and ways of life.” The Co’wasuck Abenaki Nation then pointed out Ben & Jerry’s corporate headquarters in South Burlington, Vt. sits on Native American land. As of July 7th Ben & Jerry’s parent company, Unilever, has lost $2,600,000,000 in value. My suggestion to Ben & Jerry? Why not work to give Israeli land back to the Palestinians? Just saying. (BTW, here’s 23 reasons why you shouldn’t.)
Some Context: Perhaps the FBI couldn’t put too much effort into it because they’re too busy tracking down all the J6 Protesters, investigating conservative parents labeled “Domestic Terrorists” by the National School Boards Association, and failing to release private island. Or, maybe it’s because if it belongs to Hunter Biden and was placed there after he signed a sweetheart deal with the Department of Justice he would go to federal prison for violating his agreement?
Some Background: If you’ve read the book “1984” – about a person trying to maintain their individuality in a dictatorial Socialist State where everything is rationed, war is permanent, families don’t exist, the Leader is worshiped, and the past is re-written to make Government perfect – then you’ll appreciate this tongue-in-cheek meme. If you haven’t read the book I strongly recommend it as the ultimate warning of the dangers of centralized, dictatorial Socialism.
Some Context: Funny how the Department of Justice under President Joe Biden hasn’t jailed his son Hunter Biden for buying and using illegal drugs, hiring women for bedroom fun, illegally obtaining a gun, evading millions of dollars in taxes, engaging in allegedly improper business dealings (including possible extortion and money laundering), and even allegedly profiting from human trafficking, and yet President Trump – Joe Biden’s political opponent – can be investigated and prosecuted for years non-stop (and, impeached twice) by Democrats, Congress, the Liberal Media, FBI, and DOJ if he even so much as blinks. Or, maybe it’s not funny, maybe it’s just a Two-Tiered Justice System.
Some Context: The US Supreme Court has ruled a business owner doesn’t have to provide a product (such as a cake) or service (such as designing a website) which conflicts with or contradicts their personal religious beliefs. Non-heterosexuals may complain it’s a blow to “Gay Rights” but it actually helps preserve the First Amendment, a right granted to everyone including non-heterosexuals. And, it’s the same First Amendment which allows me to post this outrageous meme.
While visiting a website I saw the little ad on the left. The headline is obviously clickbait and that got me to thinking what the “SHOCKING” discovery actually might be.
Did you know? In a 31-day month (or “Martius”) of Ancient Rome’s Republican Calendar Day 1 was the Kalends (short for “Kalendaria”, it was the day when bills were due), Days 2–6 were “before the Nones”, Day 7 was the Nones (when the Moon is in its’ First Quarter), Days 8–14 were “before the Ides” and Day 15 was the Ides (when the Moon was Full). The remaining days of the month were “before the Kalends” of the next month. For months with less than 31 days the Nones was the 5th Day and the Ides was the 13th Day, and the other days were adjusted accordingly. In our modern Gregorian Calendar the names of the months come from the Roman calendar while the days of the week come from the Anglo-Saxon and Viking calendars.
Thanks for Reading!
