I am not puzzled by Elon's backing of Netanyahu's actions in Palestine and his troubling behavior at the Trump inauguration. Many anti semites backed the idea of a Jewish ethnostate as a means to get the Jews out of Europe during the turn of the twentieth century. He's just being a good lil Nazi.

Start a dialogue with someone. Find something in that person that's appealing in some way. Bring it to their attention. Give them a smile if they don't have one of their own. Watch their better angels manifest.

Once upon a time I told my father in law that if we had the same protectionist immigration policies that we have now, back in the early 20th century, him and I would not be talking as my whole family would have been wiped out in the programs of Eastern Europe. I still wonder if he understands.

Okay folks, remember that when you're dealing with disagreeable people this holiday season, kill them with kindness ... then quickly dispose of the body.

Spent an early thanksgiving dinner with the Missus. It consisted of a Pizza and two movies. Probably one of the nicer holidays I've had in my lifetime.

I worked on set design and videography for @parkinggarage.bsky.social's newest music video, "Meathead Olympics."

I've decided to cut down on my political consumption and focus on things that make me happy. Things that bring me joy include.

-Tech (Linux, Open Source Software)

-Music Production

-Movies (Horror, Sci-Fi)

-Cats

What brings you all joy?

I'm not afraid of Trump. If left to his own devices he will spout off unpopular opinions and engage in acts of ego masterbation. What scares the shit out of me are his handlers. The people whom he surrounds himself with.

So right now, my plan is to hunker down for the next four years and wait for this orange shit show to blow over. Hopefully there will still be good parts of the US left over so me and my community can rebuild afterwards.
