Remember when a guy lost an election and then spent months making wild, baseless claims that it was stolen, leveraging the personality cult he’d built to try to get people to reject the results? And then thousands of his supporters rioted, injuring hundreds of cops?

Whatever happened to that guy?

I'm home now. This is where I spent my weekend. Sometimes good things come from bad. The ATI (Transient Aschemic Attack, "mini-stroke") likely saved my life. I wouldn't haven't survived what was coming. Grateful to be in my own bed.
Hope your weekend was good.
Happy Sunday.

A quiet, peaceful NYE. Up early and out for a morning walk.
My day will be spent tying loose ends, some housekeeping, and laundry. AKA; shit we gotta do.

I hope whatever you're doing, you have the day you need.

Happy January 1st.

And I wish the same for each of you.

Cheers.

I hope you give yourself a break today from this noise that weighs you down. Whatever it is, set it aside. Even if it's just 5 minutes, let yourself sit in the space where quiet takes over.

It's a fucking shitstorm out there.
Take a break. You not only deserve it, you need it.

Democrats: We have not yet begun to fight!

And by the way — where the fuck is Congress? Seriously. Every week it’s the same broken record: he can’t do that without Congress, that’s unconstitutional, that violates norms, that requires oversight. And then he does it anyway. And nothing happens. No emergency hearing. No subpoenas. No consequenc

Whatever you're doing.
Wherever you are.
Alone and quiet, or in a room full of noise and chatter.
I wish you peace, joy, comfort and hope.

Mostly hope.

All I want for Christmas is
"Breaking News", followed by an obituary, followed by the biggest fucking celebration this country (and the world) has ever had.

Holy fuck.
I know people like this.
There is no educating them.
They are too far gone.
Unwilling to listen. Unwilling to learn. Nothing more than what that fits their limited narrative.
Throw in a fundamentalist bias and it's hopeless.
And these folks support defunding education. 🤦🏽‍♂️

I hope you have the day you need. Be kind to yourself. It's a shitstorm out there.

I love this man.

I'm trying my best to not act how I feel.

Dutch resistance members celebrate at the moment they heard of Adolf Hitler's death over the radio, May 1945.

I can't even begin to imagine the celebration we'll have.

Walz: "It's very clear that the entire federal government is weaponized against Minnesota. They're threatening us. And this is what happens when you have a floundering presidency and it's about those ballrooms. Now we're back on transgender folks."

That's odd because I have yet to see a single consequence. This will be like every other time they've broken the law.
Zip. Zero. Nothing.
So tired of this shit.
Reps. Garcia and Raskin on the Trump DOJ not producing all of the Epstein files, as required by law:

"Courts around the country have repeatedly intervened when this Administration has broken the law. We are now examining all legal options in the face of this violation of federal law."

As we round the corner to Christmas, remember that if being with your family makes you wish you were alone, it's okay to dodge the expectations.
Sentimentality and tradition are no reason to set aside self-care.
If you don't want to do it, for ANY reason, don't.
No explanations required.

Within an hour of posting this, I was injured from a fall at work.
Until I realized that this would be a Workman's Comp issue, my first thought was not about my health, but how much this was going to cost.

Health insurance in the US is a scam.
My monthly premium increased 40%.
Office co-pays more than TRIPLED.
Covered services reduced.

I have a "Gold" level plan.

Insurance is a fucking scam.
Good morning and happy Thursday to everyone. Americans’ health care premiums are set to triple in the next few weeks. Meanwhile, Fat Satan declares war with Venezuela to try and hide the fact that he boinks little girls.
