Dashing Downward

I haven’t been here for a while. I thought I’d check in.

So. How’s your end of the world going?

I’m conflicted. It’s shameful that it took the cold-blooded murders of a couple of white folks to wake some people up. But if that’s what it takes…

The “I did it so you can too” people bug the shit out of me. If I could have done it I would have.

I think about this way too much these days. I feel like I’m stuck in a mashup of “The Wall” and “Idiocracy”. youtu.be/196h-nUrNB4?...

I’m so tired of the nation becoming everything I was raised to oppose.

Democrats Condemn ICE For Murdering Without Proper Warrants https://theonion.com/democrats-condemn-ice-for-murdering-without-proper-warrants/

*sigh* I blew it on TwitX again.

Demoralized.

I seriously want to live someplace governed by sane people.

Impeach him already!

Thank god Chuck Schumer isn’t alive to see this.

Can we just dissolve the House and Senate? They’re useless. They have allowed us to become a dictatorship.

SOMEBODY IMPEACH THIS MOFO

OFFS! 😡

I don’t know why anybody is surprised by Jack Smith’s conclusions. The Senate concluded exactly the same things during DJT’s second impeachment hearings.

Every. Single. Time.

Whatever happens, folks, as far as I’m concerned you are who you say you are and you love who you love.

It is now far more cost-effective for me to pay out-of-pocket for a visit to my Doctor than to afford insurance.

*applause*

Okay, 2026. Whattya got?

Coming to the Trump/Kennedy Center in 2026

I got shut down over on TwitX for a fairly innocuous comment, so I’ll be hanging here for a while.

I know I’m not supposed to be frightened or demoralized, but I’m frightened and demoralized.

What does “transgender for everybody” mean?

These times are turning me into somebody I don’t want to be.

We are being controlled by people who were put in power by about a third of the US public. That’s not how this is supposed to work.

Just thought I’d take a break from Elmo’s place for some fresher air here. Y’all okay?

Y’all. I’m pissed-off.

U.S., you’re breaking my heart.

Stephen Colbert is going SCORCHED EARTH right now. To RFK Jr: “Fuck you, you roid-addled nepo carnie! Fuck you, you roadkill-munching Luddite human slim jim!”

If you’re wondering how ICE recruitment and training is going under Kristi Noem—South Park already nailed it.

me: *reaches for spoon* spoon: you doing ok? you look tired

I will never forgive anybody for not voting Harris where their vote would have made a difference. Come at me with blaming her and get blocked.

Wake me in January 2029.

I’m overwhelmed by The Great Firehose of Suck and have little hope we can recover. I’m not quite sure what to do about the despair. A sort of ironic detachment seems to be my default.

AI technology doesn’t excite me in the least.

I think I’m finally tired of social media. (scrolls some more)

Bored with the “Leftist” vs. “Liberal” shit. We’re all on the same fucking side even though many of our representatives are weak and venal. It’s creating a division among the ranks that we can’t afford.

Part of my education as a child was Tom Lehrer. Indeed a significant portion of my worldview was influenced by his work. He retired from music really early in his long life, but he cast a long and weird shadow. I’m grateful that he shared his talent and wit with us.

I find your lack of face disturbing.

I noticed the neutral/rightward shift on NPR and all along I was thinking this very thing - that it will not save them.

If Christians can decide they don’t have to do anything they don’t want to like take vaccines because it’s against their religion, I can decide that anything I don’t want to do is against MY religion. Right?
