Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

California is going to mail out ballots to all residents. You don't have to vote by mail, according to the governor, but everyone has the option. Good state, have a cookie. (I've been permanent mail-in ballots since I moved back from Oregon.)

I feel incredibly guilty, but still. It's a pandemic!

You shared information, you didn't get the kid fired. You don't need to feel guilty!

Yeah, that isn't a guilt thing. You shared important public health information.

I'm sorry, Trudy.

Go Mac! Glad he called just to call. That's a huge thing for parents, especially with a kid who struggles.

I am heading back to work on Monday for reduced hours that won't affect pay. Given we can be classed as an 'essential' business, I'm surprised it took this long. I think we're taking precautions but I don't know that I trust my coworkers.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Okay, Stephen Miller's wife FOR SURE has coronavirus, and I really don't think it's too much to ask that he also get sick. And suffer. And maybe pass it along to Trump.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

If Nancy Pelosi ends up President because she wore a damn mask I'll laugh until the earth falls into the sun.

I don't think Trump can get sick. He's like the Air Cav officer in Apocalypse Now; you just know nothing is going to happen to him.

Every so often I go to Fox News, and it's always interesting what a different world it is.

Man, wouldn't that be a thing.

I was listening to a legal podcast a few weeks ago, and they said there is some legit dispute in the legal community about the succession rules. I suspect what would happen is that if Pence got sick Trump would replace him with someone healthy & entirely reliable (Jared? Possibly.) so that there would be no chance of Pelosi ever coming into power.

And the administration will lie and cheat about the situation as necessary: so if Trump dies too soon to appoint a successor VP, they will forge documents. These people are not leaving power voluntarily.

That would *almost* make the past 4 years worth it.

I would laugh and laugh all the time. What a merry soul I'd be.

(My apologies in advance for chuckling discretely behind my program at your funerals.)

Sure I'd stop while acting, but as soon as they said "cut!" Or I walked off? Giggle fit.

Trudy, I'm right there with you.

I'm sorry to hear about your aunt. I hope she will be okay. I'm glad your mom is being smart and safe.
