I almost don't want to know what the Bush regime is doing, because it's not like it'll be a)good or b)anything I can do anything whatsoever about, and I just don't have any room for pointless anger left.

Yes, this is me.

Me, too. I just don't have it in me to even listen to the justified anger of other liberals who I know, much less deal with the news. I'm completely exhausted by it.

I watched Alien vs Predator with friends last night, completely blocking out the state of the union.

Lilty is me on the SotU, except I watched Tivoed Gilmore Girl reruns with some of my favorite Luke moments.

Congratulations askye, on the house and the meds! good good news, both.

And also vw on feeling good about this semester. That's so good to read.

Me too. I respect people who can still be angry, but I can't. I'll probably rediscover my rage if we invade Iran or get a new pro-life Supreme Court justice, but now I'm just tired, and sad, and powerless-feeling.

I'm listening to NPR on the SotU. At least it's fairly liberal.

I'm so sorry people are having bad mornings.

Can I get in on the bad morning? Someone stole my laundry basket.

But good morning for vw. That's great that you feel good about things now.

Someone stole my laundry basket

Bastards!!!

Seriously. Who steals a laundry basket?! I'm hoping it's just been "borrowed," and if I check down there later today it'll be back.

Weird, P-C. I hope it turns up.

This sounds like a straight line in search of a punchline.
