do we need some facts about honey brook fiction?

People have asked why post about a little election in Honey Brook Township? Simple: what goes on out there is concerning.

No matter what your political persuasion residents in certain communities deserve more honest elections, and shall we say elections free of undue influence/interference? Aren’t we all past the election seasons of vote how we told you to? (And yes I really did hear someone say that years ago when walking an elderly woman into a polling place to vote in Ardmore years ago, and isn’t that nuts but everyone knows it happens right?)

Honey Brook has a political cabal and they have “turf” don’t they? And what is one of the biggest components of said turf? Isn’t it Tel Hai? Sort of Stepford meets Desperate Housewives? And the pecking order is someone there also controls the school board as well as the stupidvisors?

One of the first things of this election along with the constant parroting of saying Valerie Shultz is a Democrat because she is a Republican on the Democrat ballot was malarkey about trying to use a school for a polling place which is common practice. The talking hoodie is still beating that dead horse and does he even know it’s common practice to use schools for polling places AND most schools are closed on Election Day? Does he realize that it’s up to individual districts in PA and that school districts like Coatesville have already announced they are closing on Election Day?

How is voting in a closed school dangerous? The answer is it is not. It just doesn’t fit their contrived narrative.

Also not fitting a controlled contrived narrative? A very odd meet and greet right? Have you ever heard of a meet and greet where you were expected, no demanded to RSVP the same day the invitation edict was issued?

What even Chester County GOP candidates weren’t told is also interesting isn’t it? Isn’t this event happening to prop up the thug politics cabal’s candidate? He needs photo ops to increase his visibility and as cover for where he is shall we say lacking? This is not about county candidates at all is it?

And I wonder if these committee people and their handlers (because they are handled too right?) will recount their recent unsuccessful visit to the county GOP headquarters? Will they talk about why baseless accusations are called baseless accusations? Shall we guess, probably not? This event is a waste of time and gas for the county candidates but some are desperate enough that they will show up everywhere won’t they?

Oh poor talking hoodie doesn’t realize fact check is in fact either two words or a hyphenated fact-check situation? Depending on if it’s used as a noun or a verb? Is that too complicated a concept? Hey just fact-check me right?

And then there’s the handler of the hoodie. Just because he wants to play Tony Soprano running around with his little contribution checks doesn’t mean he owns a pork store does it?

This is all pretty simple out here when you break it down isn’t it power corrupt it’s time for change so every day there’s some new baseless, accusation or misrepresentation of facts isn’t there?

Like trying to say Valerie Shultz didn’t want to do her committee person job anymore and that’s why she resigned and that’s not true. Is it or factually accurate is it?

And can we talk how things get done out here? Is it a true and honest way or is it to keep haranguing people until you wear them down? And do these people understand the difference? Take another tired regurgitation and wow does he have acid reflux yet?

Apparently, someone has lost their drool cup again? And why is it they still don’t know how these open space referendums work and the subsequent taxes do they? Why is it this talking hoodie doesn’t understand the simple concept of these things have a sunset date and then they have to be reconsidered ? It’s not about cutting funding. It’s about doing things the right way. Just another giant fibber mcgee debunked. You are very welcome, Honey Brook.

And then below the next screenshot? I’ve been waiting for this all day. He doesn’t disappoint. Valerie Shultz did a lit drop overnight. It’s not about paying for stamps. It’s about making sure people get the literature. Sure, you can put stamps on them and buy a postal permit, but USPS is so bad these days and it’s Honey Brook Township so who knows if they would actually make it out of the back room of the post office right? And if you’re hand delivering them, you’re not supposed to put them in the mailbox because that breaks USPS rules, doesn’t it?

Mostly the big doofus is just probably annoyed because she beat him to the punch. but that’s what’s happens when you sit in the lawn chair on a random driveway with a drool cup, yes? And he just gave Valerie Shultz tons of free advertising because if he hadn’t said anything about the lit drop, it would’ve just been another day.

And one of the favorite terms, these people like to use is RINO even though most of the time they spell it RHINO right? They are totally derisive of most other Republican candidates end of the county except when they need them for photo for their candidate, right?

These people, if you say anything about the politics, they immediately try to parlay it into you’re speaking badly about the municipality in the area and that’s not it is it? It’s this thug politics cabal, who serve no one but themselves, isn’t it? I mean who else but desperate politicians trying to keep a hold on things would tell impressionable seniors that a candidate they didn’t choose, will raise their taxes in a retirement community that doesn’t pay those taxes?

It’s really not that difficult to see why people, including myself think that Honey Brook Township needs a political makeover.

It’s time to rotate the political crops, residents of Honey Brook Township. And a talking hoodie who beats his chest in frustration and fury and general lack of understanding on social media is not who you really want is it?

I mean, let’s get real, these people like to tell you how wonderful they are and what a good job they do but when you peel back the layers of that onion, what do you really get? Is it a soft rotten smelly center of a soft onion turning to rot? I think it is.

Be brave in November residents of Honey Brook Township. When you start to vote them out of office and different people in, you will notice a change in tone. And can we also hope that maybe those mysterious trucks that like to follow people around will take up delivering meals on wheels to seniors and more?

there’s a pipeline plan chester county? or another pipeline fairy tale?

I have to ask, and I’m allowed to ask this question, but did Chester County get pipeline propaganda money for some reason?

So when did they get a plan? And is it still run for your life for half of a mile uphill or downhill?

Am I being sarcastic? Why yes I am because in my opinion this is some kind of bulltwaddle. Here’s what Ginny Kerslake has to say (and I quote) :

“hosting three (3) pipeline preparedness workshops to support Chester County’s comprehensive plan to ensure readiness for, response to, and recovery from pipeline incidents.”

How are they going to ensure readiness when they’ve barely advertised these workshops and have not notified residents living in the blast zone at the very least? So how are you going to ensure readiness given the very nature of the product flowing through Mariner East and a densely populated area?

It will be interesting to see what 700,000+ tax dollars bought in this planning

And it’s very interesting that the link at the bottom of their notice is for the pipeline safety advisory board, which had almost no input on this emergency planning aside from vague updates at their quarterly meetings. Speaking of the pipeline safety advisory board, there are no minutes posted since 2023 because they have not had a quorum since 2023. Most members don’t show up for the quarterly meetings. On top of that most of the seats allotted to members of the public are kept vacant.

I mean seriously, Chester County, how long are we going to keep having this fake conversation?

Let’s review.

I like many, many others live in a blast zone. Thank you Ginny for commenting.

Many years ago now (July, 2018) when she and I had recently met, we had that meeting with a PR person from a particular pipeline company (not the usual suspects) in my living room. I remember when we asked safety questions then. I seem to recall the answer then she would have to ask and get back to us? Did we ever get an answer? I seem to recall polite crickets after that point.

And I also seem to recall a more recent thing with a plan in West Whiteland to essentially put assisted living on top of pipelines where this very safety issue came up, yes? And if I recall incorrectly, please correct me if incorrect, but wasn’t it in fact the truth that the county didn’t really have a plan? And a certain man who can’t seem to retire from things there who seems to be on this board didn’t really have a plan? And he was at those meetings over this plan, right?

So remember, West Whiteland denied this plan because of the lack of safety plan having to do with the pipelines correct?

It’s still in court it seems.

What I remember most from those meetings is nobody really had a safety plan including the county, so how can the county magically say they now have a plan? Because how are they going to work a notification system? How many first responders would it take to respond to a pipeline disaster in this area? How many first responders are we willing to lose along with everyday people if there’s a pipeline disaster in this area?

I mean, can we just get real about pipelines? If one of those goes kerpluey it’s game over isn’t it? This crap can literally kill us and is poisoning our water sources, wells, etc. And so why does no one talk anymore about how much of what these companies rape our land for goes literally to other countries?

Chester County has been playing the ultimate like shell game in my opinion in all the years I’ve been following the pipeline stories.

I’m just not expecting a credible plan. I think this is a whole lot of bulltwaddle and yeah, I am saying that out loud.

Allow me to share an old NBC 10 report :

That reality hasn’t changed in that video has it? Nothing has changed except for more sinkholes on occasion, right?

Chester County owes us more than lip service and so does the state. These upcoming meetings which nobody really knew about until this random post showed up from the county is lip service in my opinion.

It may be time for the pipeline activists in this region to dust off their protest signs once again. I mean, how many battles affecting our literal existence are we supposed to fight on a daily basis out here? If it’s not wanton unwelcome development, it’s a data center, or the threat of a data center, the threat of a hydrogen hub, or monster warehouses, or pipelines.

Chester County in my opinion is woefully lacking in truly supporting her residents in any of these areas. My last word is who comprises the board of this county pipeline whojamabobby. It’s hard to tell who’s on and who’s off below here are the names.

Sign me shaking my head once again over “pipeline safety preparedness.“

fake websites and the downingtown mayoral race

It is no secret that runs for something everything candidates on both side of aisle are individuals I find ridiculous. Usually in Chester County they are Republicans but this year it’s Erica Deuso out of Downingtown. A Democrat.

In 2021 she ran unsuccessfully for Downingtown Borough council (https://www.dailylocal.com/2015/05/19/jeff-thomas-wins-the-democrat-nomination-for-downingtown-council/ )

In 2023 she thought she was going to run for state rep against Danielle Friel Otten. (https://www.dailylocal.com/2023/12/15/downingtown-resident-hopes-to-make-election-history-twice/)

The 2023 article always amused me because it said (and I quote):

📌A Downingtown resident making her first foray in elective politics in Chester County is hoping to accomplish two challenging goals in the 2024 race for the Pennsylvania state House of Representatives.📌

But it wasn’t her first foray since she ran for Downingtown Borough Council unless a magic mulligan decreed it not to be trying to run for elected office?

So now she is running for mayor? Well good for her except is it just making her a runs for something / anything / everything candidate?

Her opponent is a guy named Rich Bryant whom I heard interviewed once and seems to have a neighbor who has beef with him for having security cameras?

I still have no horse in this race. Downingtown has some unpleasant politics rather regularly, and I haven’t paid attention to the mayoral race since Josh Maxwell was Mayor. I started paying attention then because I respected a younger guy stepping up for his community, which he now does on a county level.

But this race I heard was getting interesting and well I figured it out. SOMEONE put up a FAKE website MISrepresenting Rich Bryant.

https://downingtownmayor.com

This is the real website:

https://richbryantformayor.com/

So why is Erica Deuso sharing screenshots of a fake website that was taken down because it was fake??

Erica, Erica, Erica. Is this like desperate is as desperate does? Shame on you. You want people to think you are the better candidate? Then be better.

A postscript to all of this are first a handful of screenshots from the defunct website:

Next is a little more unpleasant in my humble opinion. Screenshots of his Twitter feed. This is where this candidate probably now loses me. Why put this on Twitter or X? And why didn’t he clean this up before he announced his candidacy for Downingtown Mayor?

I am glad I do not have to decide between these two candidates. And it’s sad because when I first heard Rich Bryant interviewed a few months ago he seemed like just a regular guy and very pleasant. He seemed real. And I’m not saying he can’t have his First Amendment rights to post however he chooses, but the message in the postings is not pleasant.

Well, we shall see what happens with this race. It ought to be interesting and I think it’s going to get dirtier and uglier before November.

the care and feeding of trolls.

Ahh yes you aren’t supposed to feed trolls on the Internet by reacting. But hey now, it’s your reputation so you can keep an eye out and react as needed. Part of the reason is these people are the types who lurk in the shadows. They want to live in your head rent free, because whomever you are, you live rent free in theirs. They hate being pulled out of the shadows.

Every now and again, I have one. I have had them in the past. Eventually they all reveal themselves. I can say that because the last one, who was spurned on by someone else’s gaslighting, ended up exposing themselves to law enforcement and was it actionable? Yes it was and they have a second chance to get on with life but there are certain things they agreed to in front of a judge to do so (which was my idea incidentally as a kindness they didn’t deserve.) Part of their agreement is no contact with me in any form, and the same goes for friends, relatives, internet acquaintances. I never knew this person to begin with, don’t care to now.

But that person? Shall we say inspired to act by the gaslighting of someone else? Yup, and it tracks. So careful what you read on the internet, eh?

You are only as good as your word in this life, and I act with that in mind. And the actual truth.

So the truth is, some don’t like me. That includes people who know me, but basically that’s life as we know it. I can’t be responsible for them, only myself.

A lot of the “haters” or trolls, feel they can just do whatever without impunity. Meh, that may or may not be true.

Now the latest one who is oddly obsessed with me is a woman. She’s a lurker on my blog and blog’s Facebook page. She has a warped view or perception on what reality is, and reading comprehension? Not so good as she seems to miss a lot.

She started a thread about how super horrible terrible I am. She’s not the first, she’s not the last. She thinks taking it out on me other than on Facebook protects her. It doesn’t. See she lurks on my blog’s Facebook page because if she posted on my page, I would just remove her. She knows that is what I do with trolls. And she knows I screenshot to expose bullying and trolling sometimes. Not all of the time, but I do actually do it because bullies don’t like attention upon them, no matter what their often feigned bravado is.

She first exposed herself when I made a public comment about who she might be. I knew she wasn’t that person because it is someone she comments on per her own comments among other things. And yes, I did block that person because they were freaks during COVID and just found a new personal and blocked that too. I ended up ridding myself of lots of people on both sides of the argument then and now.

You can block people on social media. You can remove them from your groups and pages. There is no law on earth that says you have to wear a social media hair shirt and take abuse. Or even mansplaining.

So yeah, I clean up my internet homes on occasion, so what? I choose not take abuse. As a woman, my latest “admirer” should understand that. But she doesn’t and she’s rather self righteous.

She exposed herself again in addition to the anti vaxxer type she hates. This time as a Chester County Democrat etc. and has done that twice so far. She’s all bothered that I don’t like Fauxmer Jawn. She’s also concerned about someone who posts on County Commissioner Josh Maxwell’s page and comments how she can’t believe that person doesn’t have a restraining order against them yet. I guess she doesn’t know in PA that only works with family members or former intimate partners? I am sure the comments are watched by law enforcement…just like honestly there is a lot of law enforcement who watch my socials.

Apparently this woman says her last straw is I posted about the man who killed his wife and injured his son in a one vehicle DUI related crash on Ship Road a couple of weeks ago now. Claims I callously posted photos of child. I did post a screen shot from the You Tube of the funeral that was posted with the Go Fund Me I shared for the now motherless child’s benefit because someone else commenting on my page kept saying two fatalities with the accident which was not true as per what police released. Then she defends her post saying I will probably take my post down because of her thread, but she has screenshots. i haven’t removed squat, and won’t. I did nothing wrong, except in her opinion which isn’t law.

Does she hear herself? I am not a public figure, I do not play one on Instagram or Facebook. Yes I blog, and blog’s are opinion based a lot of the time. So duh, Mrs. Drool Cup, lurk someplace else if I am so terrible. But she doesn’t because she suffers from social media FOMO (fear of missing out.)

Of course with her post comes the predictable clown circus of comments, plus quite a lot of comments this time asking her what her problem is.

Her problem is simple: I am not her, I probably don’t think, look, act, etc. like her. To the narrow minded social media puritans that is worse than being a Trump lover. And apparently they all categorize me as a cat mommy and gerbil owner. The mental gymnastics it took to come up with that must be something, right?

These people are utterly self righteous. Their narrow view of the world is the only one they are comfortable with. One of the commenters there is a probation officer somewhere. He gave himself away too. Others on that thread have as well, and they also lack reading comprehension based on what they have written.

So it is what it is. Do I keep screenshots of this stuff? Yes, not always, but yes I do and do I expose people bullying me online? Yes I do and yes I have.

These people feed on one and other and it is malicious gossip and mob mentality. They don’t have to like me, that’s just silly that anyone would expect that. I still think my biggest crime with a lot of these people is I choose not to know most of them. I mean why would I? When I first started on Facebook one of the first things I ever did was give myself peace by proactively blocking people I did not care for and those I knew who did not like me. My rationale was simple: I chose not to interact with them in the real world, so why do I need to know them in a virtual world?

So yes, dear readers, another troll. This one is a lurker because she is all keyboard warrior except to address me on my own page. Whatever. Take a ticket and stand in line. I don’t ever say why can’t we all get along, because quite simply put, I have never believed that.

Have a great day, mind the troll car.

unhappy cat tale: get the cat back, acct philly.

OK this all started with someone contacting my blog’s Facebook page. This woman’s friend’s daughter, whom I assume is of adult age has a cat and was fostering a cat. Long story short apparently, ACCT Philly was told to pick up the daughter’s foster cat when she was out of town on a family emergency and ACCT picked up the WRONG cat. They were supposed to take a cat that the woman was fostering named Garfield, but instead they took the woman’s few year-old cat Simba, who she has had for a few years.

It seems like there was a cat sitter involved as well ?

However, not to be judgmental but WHY would you leave responsibility for the right cat getting picked up with someone else? That is something that this young woman probably should’ve handled herself or waited until she got back home.

Nevertheless, the unthinkable seems to have happened, and we’ve heard of it happening before because cases like this have made the local news. ACCT Philly which I personally feel is a train wreck of an organization, took the woman’s cat by mistake and adopted it out and isn’t that horrible? And I have to ask they are a rescue and they know how to scan for microchips so why didn’t they, because this woman’s cat is chipped and the foster cat as well?

Now what is making this worse is I have found reference to this cat on social media posts and where the mother seems to be posting on Reddit, and there are no names so it seems like a scam/spam post.

I said to the woman who contacted me if we don’t know who the person is who lost their cat it’s not particularly helpful. And then the mother is posting from out of state and apparently lives in New England or something, and one of the posts I found is from a friend of hers on Facebook? I don’t get what they don’t get that they need to humanize this and put a face to the young woman suffering because of this, and why can’t this young woman step forward and say hey this rescue took my cat by accident instead of picking up the foster cat?

I am sharing all the screenshots I have found. I think ACCT Philly if they have to, needs to go to the house of the people who have the wrong cat with an animal control officer and get it back. And if these people who adopted the wrong cat purely because of the shelter, making a huge mistake, supposedly now know they were given someone’s pet in error, why haven’t they returned the cat yet?

Anyway, this is what I found and I think it really honestly is something that deserves a little media attention because if rescues tell people to get pets microchipped so they can easily be returned if lost, etc., etc. , why didn’t this work? Why didn’t they scan the cat they picked up when they got to the shelter to at least make sure they had checked back into the system, and the right cat prior to adoption?

ACCT Philly needs to get its act together or get out of the rescue business.

That young woman deserves her cat back. And if the people who adopted her cat won’t return it, should they really be allowed to adopt the foster cat when all is said and done?

Anyway, I’m throwing this out there. These are the screenshots I found I have maintained the message I received. I’m not making this up, I don’t think these people are making it up but again as I said at the opening of this post, the cat owner who was wronged needs to step forward. And I’m saying that because I think it will help.

And my last thought is the past few months there has been horror story after horror story of dumped animals, abandoned animals, problems with shelters, and so on. It’s heartbreaking.

they solicit live people…for death

Yeah I wonder how I got on the Join Us…..For The Last Supper mailing list.

I cannot tell a lie, my friend thought up the Join Us…..For The Last Supper of it all. It’s brilliant and apropos. I see a Saturday Night Skit…

Anyway, my new friends are from Logan Funeral Home and are in Broomall, Malvern, Philadelphia & Exton. Their website says they have an onsite crematorium too. They must be super fun at Halloween.

But the whole idea of breaking bread over funeral arrangements for the future is well…creepy.

I also got one in the past couple of months from Calvary Cemetery in Villanova/West Conshohocken now run by some company named Everstory Partners who keeps the cemetery like crap. Oh and I know that because my father is buried there. Twice in recent years when I’ve stopped by to visit his grave, there has been dirt from other graves being dug on his grave. And what was really offensive about their solicitation as it was a Dear Occupant letter. One would think they would cross reference their mailing list with families who have family interred there.

I get that businesses have to solicit, but soliciting about death is just really bizarre to get in your mailbox.

If anyone knows who’s mailing list, Logan Funeral Home gets their addresses from, let me know. Drop me a comment.

from squirrel time to secret squirrel in west goshen

Ahhh West Goshen Township, the I Spy Municipality.

Always it’s a secret something. Now it’s once again, their residents can’t know what their taxpayer dollars are for.

About a year ago in the land of jolly squirrel time, they meaning West Goshen hired a consultant for HR, Roseann McGrath. It was a name I knew well, because she was the HR Goddess at Lower Merion Township. (Ahh yes the good old days when her hubs was also the police superintendent.)

I always liked Roseann McGrath. Very nice lady, but it always was somewhat of a conundrum for me how she wasn’t a nepo wifey when her hubs became police superintendent? I actually couldn’t figure it all along but it was just one of those great mysteries of Lower Merion Township who still uses their classification of First Class Township to mean other than it should. After all, Caln is also a First Class Township, although I don’t find much first class about it in general, but I digress.

Anywhoooo, Roseann came to try to unsnarl I am sure a giant squirrel time mess in West Goshen. (She also was a consultant in East Whiteland at one time.) Here is what is on West Goshen’s website about her consultancy:

So, she charges $125 an hour, billed in 15 minute increments?

Anyway, the study is apparently complete yet although it is paid for by tax dollars, it’s a top secret thingymaboo. It’s a pay study. Employee current pay by categories. Only the public can’t see it.

Why can’t residents see this study? Why is West Goshen so secretive about salaries in general? Are salary dollars earned subjective? Do men make more than woman? Are there pay disparities residents and employees are unaware of? I hear that even employees don’t know what is in this magical study contains and wouldn’t you think employees should know? There are no unions in West Goshen except for police department so why not show their math work like you used to have to in math class?

West Goshen Sunshine asked about study results being available at a couple of meetings. It kind was treated as “NEXT.” And then she submitted a right to know. This is what came back:

Essentially everything was redacted like a classified CIA or FBI document…but they included Mrs. McGrath’s bill…but you can’t see anything else. J. Edgar Hoover where you at? (Kidding as he was a Washington DC horror show long ago.)

I am curious to know what they are hiding and so do residents and employees, right? If there is nothing bad, why can’t anyone see? My hypothesis is they are hiding stuff and what exactly? My hypothesis is squirrel time etc over the years may have been expensive yet there were pay disparities based upon who you were, your sex, etc., etc??? I mean if they aren’t that township any longer why are they still that township?

I mean Ghislaine Maxwell never visited so what’s the problem?

This website has lots of free info : https://govsalaries.com/state/PA However if you look up West Goshen they have not done much updating there since 2017 and why is that? What. Are. They. Hiding??? And why not use the tools PSATS offers municipalities? (https://www.psats.org/get-customizable-salary-insights-now-with-the-psats-salary-survey/)

West Goshen has not liked (I am sure) that they are on the Hello West Chester radar (it’s $24 a year to subscribe and ever edition is chock full of interesting.) And hell they have never like being on my radar ever since the days of residents should be werry werry qwiet.

West Goshen also had an issue this year with wanting to ditch meeting recordings, remember? That didn’t work out in their favor did it? Traditional media should do a deep dive into West Goshen and this salary study of it all in my opinion. And more residents should be submitting right to know requests. And going en masse to meetings demanding answers (politely.)

Taxpayer money paid for the consultant and the study. Taxpayers deserve answers. It’s pretty much that simple.

it’s philthadelphia freedom: good job mayor parker!

I saw the below collage floating on Facebook publicly. The above photo was shared by a friend of mine.

And Cherellle Parker? She is just the way I thought she would be. She be the Queen of PHILTHADELPHIA, hear her roar, and I am sure she has a dozen more pressers planned.

Big mouth do nothing PHILTHADELPHIA politician.

People in that city had the opportunity for better mayoral choices but no….and here we are….July 4th weekend….good job (again) Cherelle…you are trashy, indeed.

willistown is being ruined by the nutbag brigade.

In Willistown, the nutbag brigade is ruining this township. Even if this was a place that had a lot of media coverage, they literally wouldn’t have enough reporters to cover the nutbag brigade in Willistown.

If they’re not trying to shut down flower farms, they are seeking out conspiracy theories in haystacks.

Now let me set the stage here.

People criticize me and say that I’m hiding because I’m called Chester County Ramblings, even though every post here is signed with my name. But the biggest problem is on Facebook because my blog’s Facebook page is “Chester County Ramblings”. Hello village idiot collective? That’s the name of my blog. Duh.

Some of the biggest complainers are the nutbag brigade from Willistown. They know exactly who I am, and then they literally run around and are among the people that will contact anyone possible to say what a horrible terrible person I am. This does make me laugh because every once in a while somebody will say to me (paraphrasing here) “You know people think you’re a bully and thought you would want to know.

To them it’s a smile and the reply, thank you for telling me because I do appreciate that somebody cares enough to tell me that. But most don’t see the root of it. The root of it are these people that I don’t agree with or wish to interact with wherever they are, a lot of the time I choose just block them because I simply don’t feel like listening to them…which ironically and honestly they are in fact trying to bully me, malign me, defame me. But I can’t control their behavior. I can only control mine, remove myself from their crap, and look in the mirror every day. And back to the point of this post is the fact that some of the biggest offenders are from Willistown. Yes, beautiful, bucolic Willistown with the rotten underbelly of so many nasty residents. (Incidentally, I have many friends in Willistown who agree with me on this. )

These unpleasant people in Willistown literally live in one of the most beautiful municipalities in the entire county. But they can’t realize their good fortune, and they have to literally pick everything apart every day, 365 days a year. A lot of the people who do this are failed politicians, similar malcontents, or those who simply don’t have the balls to actually stand up and participate in their community. They view their “participation“ as this nonsense.

Lately their nonsense has formed into a bitch fest collective, and a new Facebook page. I find it amusing that their page is anonymous. I mean, it’s not really anonymous. You know who’s behind it and I have a pretty good idea who runs the profile that is not actually a page per se, and I don’t really care if they want to give themselves a cute little name like “Team Willistown.” It is of course their right to operate that way, but the hysterical irony is they’re doing worse than what they criticize me for doing.

So their latest target when they’re not submitting 10 million right to know requests (and do they do it now under “Team Willistown”?) is they are attacking Willistown and the way they have decided to get the public works building rebuilt or updated in a crazy economic environment. The whole process was transparent. It was discussed at multiple meetings and now they have decided it’s no bid and bad. Very, very bad.

So once again, they’re starting on one of their letter, writing campaigns and voluminous and constant Facebook posts, including polluting a community group which until them was pretty nice. Of course, if you disagree with them, then you are evil.

These people are consistently rude to township staff and supervisors. They have quite the elitist attitude towards all. and again the great irony here is, they don’t really know what living in a bad municipality is about. But then again they don’t get out much, they stay behind their keyboards most of the time. Oh, and let us not forget that the crap they pull constantly? This costs the taxpayers in the end. It doesn’t just cause serious turnover and turmoil of township staff.

If not some letter writing, lawn sign toting campaign, they drive up and down the roads of Willistown in their Teslas or similar complaining that some roads have the nerve to be old-fashioned unpaved roads. And some of the roads, paved or not, are in rough shape because there are stormwater issues. Some of the stormwater issues could perhaps be alleviated if some property owners were more cooperative with the township and why not do that?

And then I love when they start about sidewalks. And I’m not saying sidewalks aren’t important, but what I am still saying is not all roads will do well with sidewalks. Add the questions they can never ever answer when they rant on about sidewalks and it’s who will pay for what. Because everybody knows when sidewalks go in the property owner is responsible, even if the property owner didn’t want a sidewalk.

Let’s talk about some of the property owners that don’t want sidewalks. First and foremost, they know that some places are completely dangerous and it’s bad shit crazy to put sidewalks in those places.

Then there are the people who own and raise expensive horse flesh or cattle and so on, and that’s a HUGE liability for them. Are these big mouths who want sidewalks going to provide these land owners with the kind of coverage they would need and pay for it?

And then there are the people with properties that would need to be seriously graded in order to put in a sidewalk so how much land would be taken?

These people want to run everything, but at the end of the day do they really want to do anything besides bitch to Willistown about Willistown? You don’t see them moving though do you? It’s a horrible terrible place to live and why don’t they go where they’re happy?

Now look, do I think Willistown could see improvement? Let’s be honest, what municipality wouldn’t benefit from a little improvement? But it’s what these people are about that is the issue with me. They’re just offensive. And whatever good ideas they might have on occasion is lost in their unending barrage of brain farting verbal diarrhea.

Team Willistown is an individual profile on Facebook- it’s one person. But it’s the same old people attached to this person. Plus a couple of new additions who do not know about the Willistown dog who carries the bone and insecure enough to always spill the tea. So eventually everyone will figure it out. It’s literally the sewer rats with a couple of others, isn’t it?

Politics make strange bedfellows, and they come from both sides of the aisle in Willistown…and elsewhere. They are pretty much using the Republican candidate running. He’s young, a Trumper, and perhaps a patsy. And then she of peek-a-boo blouses and photo posing with John Fetterman? Rumor mill has it she’s going to perhaps try to run for supervisor again in a couple of years?

And it’s pretty obvious that they have as their next objective to get rid of Supervisor Bill Shoemaker. Now I will say the guy running as a Democrat this coming November is actually a good guy.

But the sewer rats by any other name? Are they motivated by anything other than revenge?

You don’t have to like my opinions, but I am entitled to them. And the reality is in cases like this if they didn’t put so much BS out there, there would be nothing for anyone to opine upon.

And the funny thing is, I’d actually rather listen to a rooster than listen to any of these people. I bet you never thought you’d hear me say that did you?

Rant over.
