I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I overheard a couple of my co-workers discussing Trump the other day and I was shocked at how approving they were of him. One of them, at least, said she liked some of his policies but he was a racist, and the other one didn't know what she was talking about. So I think people are somehow getting even less news than I do and just approving single sentences they hear he might have said.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

For Trump, that's actually a pretty high bar.

He appeals to the "I'm gonna say whatever I want" crowd, who don't realize that the job he's after isn't Obnoxious Sports Commentator.

Coding and Sleeping

Trumps campaign website actually has zero information on his policies or his stand on issues. It mostly has information on himself. In other words, it's perfect.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

And he is pulling attention away from Jeb, letting him run a fairly quiet campaign for now.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, since I was making fun of Wacker St, I should admit that the back door of my office is on Dummer St. That doesn't help anything, either!

I suppose, but he's spouting such a wide variety of nonsense, it seems like people are hearing just the things they do agree with and not even aware of the things they don't.

From my sample size of two.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Ooh, I like those plum chairs.

Ooh, does Dummer intersect with another street to make a funny?
