In more positive news for me, when my coworker said, "yeah nothing about suicide is happy" I was able to refrain myself from saying, "depends what side you're on - fuuuck this plaaaace".

So, there's that.

In news related to nothing, I've been saving B&N gift cards for about 20 years and today I spent them totaling $93.59!

You better believe I threw in a book for myself as well.

I was on the phone at work & Doctor asked if we had any princess stickers. Trying to multitask I found a container of Frozen stickers & the Dr complained they were all boy stickers. Put my person on hold to tell Dr it's 2025 - stickers don't have gender. Only Kristoff & Olaf were left in the box. 🤦😳

If I were reading a story that mimicked the US these days, I'd say destroy the country. We deserve to die. I'm not saying I want to die or I want you to die, but looking at things from an outside perspective we deserve it. The world would be a better place without us. I'm so sick of this shit/Trump.

My new hobby is opening a video, deciding I'd rather listen with headphones. Get headphones, put them on and press play. All without putting Bluetooth on. I highly recommend with bone conducting ones because you can't even tell if you hear it through headphones or just hear it like everyone else.

I have an affinity for stepping in cat puke. I heard three but can only find one. Please send your thoughts and prayers as I navigate through this tough time.

* This was typical of the Whitehouse under Trump. When people resisted their authority, they never asked whether there were legitimate reasons, but always looked for-or invented -malign motives.

*The Kremlin under Brezhnev

Hey, as a librarian I need to tell you:

Our funding depends on usage.

So go ahead and check out that book even if you don't think you'll finish it. No one will know. Check out that DVD even though you might not like it. Get ambitious in your quest for knowledge.

Another reminder, and I'll keep reminding you. Hang onto your hard copies. The words inside can't be manipulated. And I predict real books, unabridged, will become increasingly valuable as they disappear from schools and libraries.

* Trump used the power of presidency to help his friends. He also attacked his enemies, directing tax audits and other investigations at corporations that donated to the Democrats.

*Nixon*

Better yet people can try to guess who the real quote is about. Maybe I'll put a * or something to signify the game.

Almost done with Ken Folletts The Century Trilogy. It's insane how many themes and even quotes sound like the horrors America is going through now. Maybe I'll post some quotes but change out the names and you tell me if you think it applies to trump. It'll be fun.

okay but tell me what I can do to help? I want to contribute to stopping this madness, but I don't know how.
What have we tried? What works? What can I as an individual American do?

People w/out health insurance are going to the doctors. When the doctors office doesn't get paid they are going out of business. This is going to increase the already massive shortage in healthcare. So even if you don't have Medicare you are still significantly fucking yourself over with this bill.
