I’m 56 and too old to be having to deal with Naziism 2.0. Too damned old, I tell you. We need to be better.

Trump just signed a completely unnecessary memo barring undocumented immigrants from getting Soc. Security benefits, when they're ALREADY BARRED from getting them! 🔥WHAT TRUMP DOESN'T WANT VOTERS TO KNOW: Undocumented immigrants quietly pay billions into Social Security & receive no benefits. 1/2

Apologies for the somber tone of the last few posts. It’s been a weird few weeks. The world is almost literally burning around us, and I’m caught up in relationship drama.

So, in the midst of this personal tragedy surrounded by a larger catastrophe, I’ve made a small change in the name of self-care.

It’s at times a difficult thing to admit, but sometimes the best thing one can do for someone’s life is to stay out of it.

This is the biggest, underreported news right now. Republicans are trying to STEAL an election in North Carolina. Straight up. This is a test case for 2026 and 2028. They will never voluntarily give up power again.

Meh. Having a singularly crappy week. Went through a breakup, got denied for some state benefits because I helped out at work, and my roommate spent the night being drunk and loud. Perhaps not the best week to stop the cannabis.

Just so you know, I’d been partaking of cannabis since 2015. I made the personal decision to stop yesterday morning. It’s been just over 40 hours since I last smoked, and the difference in mental clarity is stunning. Even when I thought I was not high, it was still affecting me. Yikes.

Is it bad that I want to wake up and he’ll have passed during the night? It can even be of natural causes; in fact it’s preferable since he can’t be martyred that way. Apologies for not maintaining the calm. Some days are just easier than others, and this isn’t one of them.

This will decidedly not make one proud to be an American. When saner minds once again have the ability, this cruel system needs to be destroyed.
