But That's Where We Are

"Autumn is springtime in reverse."

~Teri Guillemets

 

I think I can agree with that!

 

Okay. I am back. Kinda. I am still depressed. I think I probably will be for the next four years, but what can I do? One day at a time, right? Nah. I don't believe that, at least not right now. Not when you see things like this...

 

... and realize it's real. By the way "DOGE" isn't just for cryptocurrency, it also means, Department of Government efficiency. Which is code for, I always wanted to play government. It's going to be run by Elon Musk and whats his name. Hey, the new man tapped to head the Department of Defense is, what's his name, from Fox News. The anchor who said he never washed his hands, germs aren't real, while the rest of us were fighting Covid-19. Can you believe washing your hands was controversial?

But that's where we are. 

As for me, I am just trying to photograph autumn,

 and pretend autumn will fix it.

 ~Fyodor Dostoyevsky

And Now A Word From J.D. Vance...

 

 

 

 

J.D. calls us, "childless cat ladies, and 'trash." Says that older women have no real worth, except to help raising children. He is just as dangerous for women as Donald Trump. He is a loser, and that hillbilly needs to take his Hillbilly Elegy and shove it up his ass.

Happy Election Eve, To Those Who Celebrate

 

Trump provides the quote for today.

 

 

This man is deeply unhinged.
