@FrankCannon @BillyBones They are going to try to beat us down. Every day. It's going to be a government full of bullies and sadists.

@BillyBones @FrankCannon You got that right.

@FrankCannon @BillyBones As would anyone I believe - but this is a guy who won't even pardon his son. I love Joe Biden, don't get me wrong - but sometimes you can't play by the rules because they'll fuck you ever time.

@FrankCannon @BillyBones they knew the fix was in - and they knew that Biden would NEVER use the powers.

OK, night folks, I gotta get some sleep - been awake for close to 48 hours

@kismatt @kel I too live currently in a blue spec in Florida.

@kel We should never have stopped teaching civics classes. And now - with no DOeducation, they'll just keep em dumb.

@DevinY1 The gay thing is (to the maga mind) almost as bad as being Black or a woman.

@kel I turned 18 in 1975. I have voted in every election since then, because "civics class" taught me that as a citizen, it was my duty to be involved. The First President I ever voted for, was Jimmy Carter. I wasn't "inspired" to vote for Kerry, but it was my civic duty - so I did. I wasn't inspired to vote for Gore - but the same thing. I was more than inspired this time. A fine woman who was not a felon or rapist was running against one. Inspiration is not DUTY. And I knew the assignment.

@Intolerantcentrist I think they plan on taking him out asap. They already "fake" attempted his life, the next time the shooter won't miss.

@michaelDTW Hey Michael! I got ya pal!

@LSWellesley TY!!!

@Charity Yep. Absolutely.

@Tacitus_Kilgore I'm not going to. But man - the last 24 hours have been brutal as shit

Today marks one year cigarette free. And I think I need a pack right now. Too back I can't walk or I might hike into town and get some.

O land that we loved, with all of our might,
How did you fade so fast from sight?
An elegy hums through the silence and tears,
For dreams now buried in uncounted years

When once a beacon, fierce and bright,
A land of stars, now lost in night.
Once fields of courage, valleys of dreams,
Are shadows now, torn at the seams.

The voices that rose, defiant and free,
Whispered truths lost on waves of the sea.
We traded ideals for comfort and gain,
Blind to the price, numb to the pain.

The heart of a nation, once open and vast,
Closes tight, gripped by echoes of past.
And those who remember a land of the just
See only the dust and the crumbling rust.

@catlynne333 I said this to my daughter at 4 am. There are quite a few of us survivors who feel this way I bet.

@Idrake I am so very sorry. May be find abundant peace and joy, where ever his spirit may land.
