@Florence It's become more acceptable to be outrageous, but it has taken its toll on a lot of people, combined with Covid, and they are feeling it, too.
Adrian Fontes winning this race, stopping Oath Keeper MAGA fanatic Mark Finchem from getting control of Arizona's election system may well be the most consequential result of #MidtermElections2022 #DefendDemocracy #BlueNotRedWave
@Florence It takes a lot out of me to socialize, especially since becoming more disabled. I just don't have the energy. Socializing is a lot more energy-intensive than I realized.
@Florence Yeah, if I'm lonely, I'll reach out. Don't read too much into my personal time. LOL
@Florence I'm mildly autistic myself and agree in part. Keep in mind though that those crazy people are much "louder" and thus draw attention more easily. Don't let them trick you into thinking they are the norm.
@Florence It absolutely does make sense. People who aren't totally cool in their own company often don't understand those who are. Like those waitresses who feel sorry for you when you bring a book to the restaurant. I'm living my best life - bring my food and skedaddle! LOL
@Florence I find that having my quiet time is almost as necessary for me as breathing. Mom is quite the opposite. She gets JAZZED having people around. I'm hoping she naps a lot. ;-)
I'm autistic. The more I see of the world, the more I think to myself when watching neuro-typical, or non-autistic, people do and say things, I'm glad I'm not a part of that.
I've watched some serious lunatics run for office in these elections. Hate-filled, bile-filled, rhetoric which hurts people.
So, truly, if that passes for 'normal', count me out!
"I assure the people of Arizona, we will fix our elections," Kari Lake says, hoping people are still listening to her rhetoric.
We need coffee.
Good morning CoSo.

Wow. Trump's attorneys are so bad at this. https://youtu.be/YVk4xWu0qSE
“What’s happening now with the delay in counting (the votes in Arizona) was entirely expected. It’s the product of close races and an early ballot system created by Republicans and run by Republicans.”
“A process that was made difficult because of the very Republicans who are now pitching a fit.” https://www.alternet.org/2022/11/do-you-need-a-timeout/
It's me. I'm the problem. I'm that person your mother warned you about! 'We all do well when we all do well' (Wellstone) #BLM #VoteBlue #Democracy #Cancer
