Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Thanks to Kat, Consuela, and past-Nilly for important words!

For my part, apparently what I'm doing today is handing out cash. The guy in the subway was playing Danny's Song ("Tell me everything's gonna be all right"), threw him a buck. Got off the subway and bought the homeless newspaper I hardly ever buy anymore. We'll see who else needs something today. I also wanted to apologize to every person of color I walked by.

I want to check the local news to see how the local races shook out, but I can't even bring myself to open the website because I don't want to see it.

I checked a couple hours ago and there were two positives from Maine, I guess. First, they seem to have approved the legalization of recreational marijuana. So we can spend the next four years high if need be. And they approved raising minimum wage. So maybe we can afford recreational marijuana. 😂

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Yeah, local levies I voted for did actually pass, and that matters. Some Republicans lost in upsets, which doesn't happen here often. Our local government matters, and there were some good changes there last night.

I had to turn the radio to a music station. But even that didn't help. The playlist as I listened:

The Idiot Kings

Until The End Of The World

Im Nin'Alu

Farewell To The Good Times

It's The End of the Worlds As We Know It

Fight For Your Mind

Nowhere Man

You Want It Darker

Shelter Song

Karma Police

SOS (Overboard)

Blame it On Cain

Hold on hope

Lost On You

I Gotta Get Drunk

I almost laughed.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

Love to all of you. Take care of yourselves today. I am glad I decided to take this week off of work, because I can barely get out of bed right now.

Thanks for the Nilly words, Steph. They helped.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I'm at work, but I know I won't get anything done.

I fear America is dead.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Song for the playlist: Bad moon rising. Just came on my iPhone - a cover version by a local band, the Reels.

Another local artist, Kate Miller-Heidtke, has The last day on earth. And he'll, how about TMBG's Your racist friend.

I just sent some $ to Planned Parenthood and will be sending some to the National Democratic Redistricting Committee.
