This morning I’m reminded of a line from ‘Touch of Grey’…
I will get by, I will survive.
You will to.
I’m taking Cal Newport’s advice and going analog. More books, less media.
I need to work on myself before I can work on the world.
Be kind to each other and keeping fighting.
I will get by, I will survive.

Elon Musk plans to spend election night with Donald Trump, giving the former president direct access to the person controlling X, a key information platform, on what could be a chaotic evening.
Musk to Spend Election Night With Trump at Mar-a-Lago
Elon Musk has spent $119 million on a super PAC supporting Donald Trump and held events on his behalf. But his ownership of X is especially valuable.

I am voting for everyone but myself. I’ll be fine either way. Many won’t. Take the time and think about those who need your vote most🗽

Our son is very much in to politics (poor sweet child). So we are taking him to the polls. I haven’t voted in person for 2 decades. Since it will probably be raining, I have my “lots of people died so we can stand in the rain and vote so suck it up” speech ready.
