This mousepad is based on a shot across the bow from Senator Marie Alvarado Gil, a former Democrat in the CA Senate who switched to the Republicans.  Her tweet is as follows: 

We are on day 1 of the new session and Grand Wizard Gonzalez of the Latino Caucus is already in my face.  She tried to kick me out of the Senate break room so she could have “privacy”. Uhhh nope. I am a CA State Senator just….like….you…ni que fuera tu pendeja #PowerTakeBack

This has started a bit of a controversy for her in the Latino Caucus, it is a new session so I guess she was allowed back in for the first day after being kicked out for switching political parties.  The controversay stems from the KKK reference.

But I m more concerned with the spanish trash talking, specifically how the gender of this word changes its meaning in some way.

The phrase means I ts not like I am your…

then things get a little tricky as to what the meaning of the word Pendeja is and is not.

The direct translation of the word means pubic hair, but i don t think anyone ever uses it to mean that, the latin root of the word in spanish comes from the latin word for pubic, and in the 1600 s in spain it was a word used to decscribe teenagers. 

If there was an o at the end of it with a masculine ending everyboyd knows that means asshole among other things, but since it is a little weird to call a female an asshole and this has a feminine ending then the slang curse word becomes a word of several meanings. 

On some websites there are as much as 46 different meanings of the word pendeja, but the gist of it is that it is a derogoty word for another female and an insult.  It can mean anything from stupid, to cowardly, weak minded, schemer, or stupid ass.

essentially the word is a little like beavis and buthead calling each other dumb ass every other sentence. 

This confrontation apparently led to someone challenging Senator Alvarado Gil to a fight outside, hence the Mexican standoff design I created with A.I.

The point being, Nobody in California is winning from this kind of immaturity.
