You Know What We’re Overdue For? Some Good Old Fashioned Ashley Judd Batcrappery.

I’m sorry, y’all.  I know there are people out there who genuinely believe that Ashley Judd is some sort of inspirational high priestess of do-goodery.  But no matter how many times she poses for photos with African children, and no matter how many times she loves on bonobos, and no matter how many times she promotes well-intentioned causes, she’s still (among other things) the radical liberal feminist seahag who said Bill Clinton “loves his bride” when introducing him at a Hillary campaign event.  Remember?

So yeah.  She’s batsh*t, and you’ll never convince me otherwise.

And her latest?  The longest bunch of over-the-top nonsense on IG EVER.  BEHOLD:

Thank y’all so much for the kind and thoughtful birthday wishes. I wanted to share with you the innocence and creativity that has marked my days of celebration. I dreamt riots over when to re-open the American economy killed folks and then woke up an equally valid and literal reality of colored construction paper, five little voices singing, and their hands clasping mine as they led me to my birthday art treasures. We live in polarizing times that require my best non-binary thinking: both//and are true. My circumstances are placid and dear, #shelteredinplace with my Love in safety and calm in an orderly country with stable leadership. Yet I feel emotional and spiritual anguish about the loss of millions of jobs, the intimate partner violence and child abuse that has hellishly escalated and from which there is neither relief nor help. I am thankful for my meditation practice, and teachers over the years from @seanecorn to @janetstoneyoga to my preachers and @klontzted who have taught me to hold complexity and multiple truths at once. I am happy. I am unhappy with the state of the world. I live in freedom. I am not free until all people are free. I have choices. I must rest and practice self care. I will not rest and I must work ceaselessly to expand choices for the oppressed, the poor, the voiceless. I am grateful to be here. Yet I wish I were with my friends in a red light district Kolkata in India, where they are starving, or in an orphanage in Kentucky where some child is lonely. Who are we to question God? Yet my God has always cherished my doubt. S/he loves my feistiness and zeal. So on my birthday I give thanks for all if it, what we call good, the unknowing, the unbecoming, and most especially the spiritual gift I perhaps most appreciate: mercy. Above all, may we be merciful to each other. That is my birthday wish. #switzerland 

Sorry, Ash. If mercy means I can’t shake my head at your post and wonder WTF and share it here, then I guess I’m merciless because WTF even was that ridiculous pointless diatribe.

Maybe it’s “siege-migraine” induced? Because even though that’s a made-up condition that only Ashley Judd suffers from, she’s got herself some more siege-migraines. And she’s curing herself with CHINESE MEDICINE, y’all.

Check out this post:

Hello, Friends. It’s been a while. Happy Spring, and blessings for the sacred days you consecrate. For me, it is #easter. Look at the sweet eggs! The herbs that follow are the Chinese medicines I am taking for alas another siege migraine. I am deeply thankful to my #tcm traditional Chinese doctor who has been able to mix formulas for me and send via mail during sheltering in place as of course my migraines respond to zero medications….in spite of, so much to be grateful for. I am doing 3 gratitude lists, of 20 items, each day as well as my morning journaling and reading and meditation….enjoying the 8 family members (5 of whom are small children) with whom I am sheltered….our room is in the basement (it does have a window that opens!) and all is well in the midst of the mess. One can only live #onedayatatime with international borders closed, and do dishes, sweep floors, and thank family for hosting us literally indefinitely. I hope you have moments of peace and equanimity in spite of this tremendous chaos and change and havoc. #switzerland #love

I can’t with her. The last thing anyone should be doing right now is ANYTHING WITH OR FROM OR BY OR BECAUSE OF CHINA.
