ty for this insightful, frightful, and mind-numbing piece.

props as well to the pic you chose of this vile lump... it's real as opposed to the really toxic images i've had to witness in real time or eventually.

in fact, your piece made me realize how much less triggered i've been by trump and his gang of ghouls... if there's anything i think i can say based on zero facts is that the Democrats and the Left in general are just easier on the eyes.

or maybe i'm just that easy to please.

which only means your point is not lost on me... being the easy on the eyes party not only doesn't guarantee winning an election... but ffs... i find the Democratic party brimming with intelligence, passion, and fairness... so in spite of being as close to The Good-Guy cowpokes which i know is oversimplifying... it also can't be that GD hard?

OR IS IT?

please tell me it isn't.

you truly sound like a whippersnapper...

[my complimentary term for everyone younger than me, so. most of the peeps here on medium]

...who knows what time it is as far as WHAT WE NEED TO DO BEFORE the shit hits the fan.

i'm eager to know as i'm a post-covid casualty from a life's work, material, and financial perspective.

this means i've got nothing left to lose and a lot of extra time to do my share of the chopping wood and carrying water required to avoid Mr. fucking Mayhem.

i totally didn't mean for this to land where it's landed but hey... 2024 will get here before we can say 'fuck his wall, AGAIN'... so please feel free to let me know where a pissed off hippy-disco-mechanical-bull-riding-era survivor can sign up to for service.

sincerely <3<3<3

[p.s. our country... hell our planet needs our help. real bad :( ]
