@MakerWerks Yes, did watch the live action Alladin, but it just convinced me that it was a mistake I should not repeat.
@mcfate I really need to get to that one. It's been stuck in my 'to read' stack for months.
@Zevon I'll still march but will really suck if I need to do it in a helmet.
Last night I went to see 'Oh, Mary'. I made the plans to go months ago, knowing I would be either be celebrating or in need of a distraction on 11/6. Unfortunately, it was the latter and not the former. An extraordinarily funny show! Highly recommended. Easily the funniest show about a Presidential assassination I have seen (so far). Now I just need to find several hundred more distractions...
The fact of the matter is that this is largely a hateful, greedy, and stupid country. I blame myself for being repeatedly surprised it is.
I weep for those who will suffer the most. This will be a nightmare for LGBTQ+ people. Ukraine is likely fucked. Immigrants and their extended families will suffer. Science again ignored. The list goes on and on.
A dark day.
May the wings of Liberty never lose a feather.
Today's the day, Citizen. If you never do your duty any other day, ever, in your entire privileged life, do it today. Not for yourself, but for all those who can't stand up for themselves, all those who gave their lives to defend democracy, and for the generations yet to be born. You want a better nation? You have to be a better citizen.
Today is the day. Now, get after it.
