Yet another day I'm glad I'm almost dead.

I "liked" your comment bc I have pancreatic cancer and it has probably metastasized (per recent CT scans -- I need a biopsy). The coming shitshow makes my premature departure (I'm 63) somewhat less enraging.

I wish you well. Take care. Let's try to find some comfort or usefulness or joy where and when we can.

My niece reports she is still feeling waves of grief and crying into pillows.

I spent at least a half hour raging at full voice then took a short break then another 15 min of raging.

I also have finally broken off with god since this is a repetitive behavior of his to allow people like Trump, Stalin, Hitler and Idi Amin screw folks over and/or get rich. So far god has not replied to my yelling,

If Biden had appointed a real attorney general, we'd be saved. Garland is responsible for this, and Biden for not firing him. Fucking weak losers.

Nope. Trump is a.felonious prick and the American voters decided that's what they want.

Well, the GP disinfo universe -- which began with Raygun's elimination of the Fairness Doctrine -- has a lot to do with *why* so many people who support Dem policies on healthcare, taxation, gun safety, abortion rights, and even the climate crisis continue to vote for GOPs.

When pollsters ask people whether they support a particular policy (with zero information about which party is behind it), a majority of all voters favor all of the above.

Very very sick, and very very frustrating.

On the plus side, since we have been patient because we know that the man likes to move cautiously, Garland is going to start some sort of prosecution of Trump, which will wrap up before January 20, right? Right? RIGHT?!!!!? Hello, is this thing on?

Resign, Biden. Maybe Harris has the balls you lack.

And then she would have qualified immunity for any actions she took, yes...?

Maybe we need to cut the circular firing squad crap? Just for today?

I’ve been happier.

I think I was happier at this point in 2016. Mainly because I didn't know how bad it would get. If there was ever a time for Biden to claim "official act" and perform something that before the USSC declared the President beyond the law would have been questionable, now would be the time.

Well, it's 2016 with 2 differences.

1) it's worse, because Republicans are crazier. It's crazy all the way down.

2) Americans voted for this fuck shit. He didn't squeak through a narrow EC victory, he won the popular vote. All those ordinary people who voted for Trump are sheep voting for the wolf. And they're too dumb to realize. And everyone else is dragged along.

So men could not bring themselves to vote for a woman. A woman who supported Unions? All those Union men should learn history And Maya Angelo - Trump Told us who he is many times. When Biden walked the line, Trump held a meeting at a non-union shop. He has undocumented workers at his various golf courses, he prefers undocumented workers he says because you don't have to pay them over time.

His buddy Elon Musk also does not like union workers, he wants striking workers to be Jailed. No one he would put in his administration likes Unions. They hate Time and a half.

I expect more Judges who twist the laws to out law Unions. Yes, will they be singing the praises of Trump as they have to work for no pay some days or take pay cuts because no union represents them?

Well, at least they don't have a woman president.

Well, I am pretty much gutted. I shall spend the day cooking, eating, day drinking, and watching Jane Austen videos.

Also throwing up occasionally.
