From the beginning, the danger hasn't been Trump. He is constitutionally lazy, ignorant, unambitious and just generally not good at things. The danger is from people supposedly in opposition doing fuck all to stop the rest of his coterie, categorically more evil, ambitious and skilled than him.
I have an entire rant with several key points, but the gist is: Send Donald Trump to jail nothing bad will happen. There will be no riots, no demonstrations, nothing that can be done by the system or police or FBI or anyone to stop it. And once it happens, we’ll realize it was never scary.

He’s just an old man falling asleep and farting. He’s not a diabolical mastermind. He has no supernatural powers. He’s been yelling for his red caps to come overthrow the courthouse for weeks and three people wrapped in tinfoil have showed up. If we send Donald Trump to jail, he will go there.

The problem with the argument around "vote for Biden because Trump will make Gaza worse" vs "do not vote for Biden because he's assisting genocide" is that *both* of them do not work. It's like arguing about whether the best way to travel to the moon is a ladder or a submarine.

There's probably no contemporary band I've spent more time listening to than Dead Meadow. They slow my mind and make me marvel with gigantic psychedelic lines that spiral beyond the frame. Requiescat Steve Kille.

I don't have any insight on relationships, monogamy, all that. But the thing is, neither does anybody else. People who think they have it all figured out, the spreadsheet people, are the absolute last fucking place I'd look to for advice. I'd rather stare at a pond.
