It’s been almost 6 months since Trump won and the liberal/Democratic investment in media has been zero.

Don’t say we didn’t warn you when it happens again but worse.

The body breaks down.
As the years stack onto it.
Acceptance is tough.

I feel that there's a decrease in celebrating competence and knowledge, and an increase in celebrating the metaphorical equivalent of a drunken frat bro saying they're going to do a flip right before injuring themselves and breaking furniture.

A celebration of reckless ignorance, basically.

High school is a place
A kind of Purgatory
An assembly line

Crushing and molding
A socialization tool
To create more cogs

Choose your persona
Find your clique or subculture
Or be an outcast

Navigate all this
As you wander through the zone
From child to adult

You can't change the past.
And even if you could go back:
A brand new timeline.

Does anyone know
Anything about themselves
What they really want?

Hidden subroutines
Dictate our course of action.
For better or worse.

Familiar patterns
Begin to repeat themselves
Until we notice.

Remember when the Asset said we were "rounding the corner" when it came to COVID? The weather was going to warm up and clear the virus. We didn't and it didn't. The Asset is a pure bullshit artist. Period.
