WASF. GOOD ONE.

I have a WTF scale, based purely on how many times a day I say WTF based on the news. It is also high.

I think it's off the charts.

As the 1st verse of the re-written national anthem now ends

Oh, say! does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the fucked and the home of the rich?

If you weren't screaming it Nov 6 you're a fool.

Due to the unseriousness of our elected losers, I don't see how we move through this intact and safe

fantasizing about a new constitutional convention is reaching alarming levels :(

Its whackadoodle week in america.

April 12-22 tends to be nuts regardless.

My gauge is how many cybertrucks I see in a day.
Yesterday was a two Cybertruck day. 😞

Yes - WASF

Should we go with #WASF?

I have many posts that fit this attribution.

That saying has now replaced any room for music earworms. At least with music, I had a way to counteract. Now - nothing...

Don’t worry the strict constitutionalists amongst us will strongly push back against any attempts to circumvent habeas corpus. Anytime now….

The highest so far

That is a perfect measurement!!!

The WASF meter. Mine's been off the charts too. It's that constant, low-grade hum of impending doom I keep hearing. We have solidarity in WASF-induced anxiety, I guess.

I'm feeling it, too. Every. Single. Day. Multiple times a day.

I leave the "So" part out usually. But, yep.

Perhaps one day, far in the future, we will be able to institute the WASB scale.

The emotional sting is real, but I can't say this is surprising. This is one further step on a path we've been on for a while, but it is not fate.

There were 5+ million people at Hands Off last weekend. We can do better.
