Dear South Dakotans, Here's the guy who's gonna take away your health care, your kids' education, your retirement. Whatever money you have left, he'll give it to the rich. What a guy. Such a man for his constituents.

Whazzup? I am. After plaque attack, stent, slambam. Standing, walking, working in the garden, planning my getaway. After the wake-up call of all that, leaving Dumbfuckistan and going back to where I belong: the Lehigh Valley, looking down on the Forks of the Lehigh/Delaware.

Whazzup in Dumbfuckistan? Daffodils, flax, yucca. The chive patch and spring onions add flavor to supper. Apple trees budding. Squirrels nursing kits. But it could snow again. Nothing like hands in the dirt to erase the madness. And some comeuppance for the Sec'y Homeland Security? Heh heh.

Note to Self, DNC, DCCC, DSC, AOC, Act Blue, Emily's List, past small donor giftees:
1) By August, the pittance I get from a life's work of journalism, environmental NGOs, paying taxes & into SSA for 62+ years = GONE.
2) By the time Dems get around to the 2026 election, I will be dead.
3) Fuck off.

Companies in places without the rule of law capitulate.

South Dakota legislators are celebrating hand-cuffing and jailing librarians, and granting permission for firearms on campus.
A book won't kill children, but guns at college certainly could.
What's next? Book burning to fully obliterate our libraries? Gunfights among fraternities across the green?
