While dealing with the ups and downs of my daily 9-5 grind, I started getting notifications that things were going badly. As I sit here in my living room getting caught up, I’m appalled. Some of us told you exactly this would happen. You didn’t listen. So here we are, on the brink of history, and I’m pissed. I’m pissed right the f**k off at lack of logical action that we’ve seen for the past four years.
In June of 2016, Dan Harmon shared a tweet that I then shared to those in my circle. It was funny at the time, but I had an underlying sense of foreboding when I saw it because I knew it to be true.
I’m not going to be at this post for long because I want to get back to watching history, but I just wanted to get out some preliminary thoughts while we get Civil War II underway. They, be warned, are rambling. I am seething.
- Yay, 45 finally got a well-deserved restriction on Twitter. Where the hell was this years ago?
- Subsequent great sound byte from one of the ladies on CNN – I regret that I don’t remember who it was:(paraphrased) “Trump is off Twitter so we have no way to hear from him.” Ain’t it the truth?
- Are we going to start arresting white people now?
- Holy shit, this entire presidency has made W. seem like a cakewalk now, huh?
- As much as we can’t hear from 45 right now, this is probably the one time I’d like to see what he’s up to.
- I live in the worst possible province for cross-border stupidity.
- How… I mean… HOW can people in this day and age still have such an antiquated mindset?
Oh, and before I go, a prediction. Biden will, of course, win out. He will make a cromulent president for sure. But I think there’s something more at work. I will not be surprised if a year, maybe two into his presidency, Biden gets ill. Very ill. Deathly ill. He will have handily made way for the US’s first female president, and a woman of color to boot. I hope this isn’t the case because I bear no ill will to Joe Biden. But it would be the progression the US direly needs, that it is clear due to a large portion of the population thinking confederate flags are still a good idea, will never happen on its own.
Be well, people. Stay safe. Stay sane. Keep your masks on. Fight the right.
