I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I can't even comprehend it. We seriously have to protest this? This is a thing we've come to?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Ugh, I'm feeling so stabby and angry.

And I've purposefully chosen to live as far from Republicans as possible so it's almost impossible to go outside my front door and step on their bunions.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I'm so glad I live in this neighborhood. Although there's one business, down where there are some warehouses and trucking companies, that had a Trump/Pence sign up during the campaign. It looked out of place in the sea of Sanders signs (followed by Clinton signs in the the general election), but there's always one weird Republican in this neighborhood. Except -- it's 2018 now, and that motherfucker STILL has the Trump/Pence displayed in the front window. I want to bust that window every time I drive by there.

Because books.

I am at the point where if I money to live on without working, I would be driving to the border to protest and do whatever I could.

Or possibly driving to Mar a Lego to do something else, but I'm not actually saying that out loud.

I did give a huge white Ford pickup flying obnoxious US flags the finger on the way home tonight, though.

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

I can think of ways you could've got further away.

Thrive to spite them

Tom I think it sounds like progress.

I got more info about my aunt. She is partially paralyzed on her right side. She has been moved into rehab. The good news is that a few days ago she could only raise her right arm above her head by lifting it with her left hand but she can do that. Not sure how much of a struggle it is for her.

She didn't get into the rehab center she wanted but she got into a good one. They allow patients to be checked out for a day so Dad is hoping she can do that soon and they can take her home to pick out clothes she actually wants there and also to see Grandma.

I'm limiting my FB outage where there is some support by others. Buffistas are awesome.

I'm going to see if there will be any protests locally we don't have detention centers near here but Sen Tillis has an office in the next town and that is a gathering point for certain protests.

Yeah, about that. Do you know if Australia needs 50-something eLearning developers? Asking for a me.

New Zealand would be a perfectly acceptable compromise.

ETA: I'm glad your aunt's doing better, askye.

I don't see why not!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Did I mention the Australian gentleman I got into conversation with in the Cook Islands who was giving me the MAGA spiel?

Wow, really?
