Before I go to work. I just need to re-post this.
This is the best damn meme of the year !
I can't remember who.
But some Senator or Congress critter, said years ago.
"The other party are all bastards, but they are our bastards. Compromise does not mean you win or lose. It just means you're having lunch with the bastards you know."
(sounds like Tip O'Neill)

Salem Oregon Police has just declared an unlawful assembly.
Can you imagine a Cabinet, and staff made up entirely of humans ?
Can you imagine that between 10:00 am and Noon on the 22nd of January, a group of First Peoples, arriving at the White House to smudge and purge the evil spirits. Can you imagine a commander and chief that eats chow with the troops. Can you imagine a president that reads and understands the PDB? Can you imagine a National Security chief that trusts and believes in the IC.

A friend commented that Biden’s victory becomes more impressive after you contemplate the enthusiasm gap: Trump’s base believed that Trump was sent by God to fight Satanic pedophiles, whereas Biden’s base believed that Biden probably wasn’t a terrible human being. I replied that what we call the “Enlightenment” was precisely this, the switch from cowering before leaders who were sent by God to demanding leaders who probably aren’t terrible human beings.

Biden plans immediate flurry of executive orders to reverse Trump policies.
"Biden is planning to set up a coronavirus task force on Monday, in recognition that the global pandemic will be the primary issue that he must confront. The task force, which could begin meeting within days, will be co-chaired by former surgeon general Vivek H. Murthy and David Kessler.

Understanding Quantum Mechanics #7: Energy Levels

It’s fitting for the day, even though it was recorded long ago (1990). The footage above features Patti Smith and her departed husband Fred “Sonic” Smith performing a stripped-down, acoustic version of her classic “People Have the Power.” A rare recording of Smith and Sonic performing together, this is a little treasure. Savor the moment.

Please celebrate today !
Yet be aware.
We are today, looking at a huge amount of work to do. A democratic president will not solve our problems. Yes it will do less harm. Yes it will start to move us toward a better direction.
It will come down to what we, individual folks, do. Walk down your street, look at how many people are under employed, about to be evicted, have hungry kids.
Please work these local problems !
Celebrate today !
Get to work tomorrow !
I am at gas station, filling up tanks.
But I wanted to share some local good news.
Salem’s new low-barrier housing project for veterans offers help to women and the most vulnerable.
Tanner House will offer 36 beds to veterans experiencing homelessness and is the first to offer beds specifically to women. The project is named after a veteran who had his own struggle reintegrating back into society.
And with that.
Books exchanged.
Going back to forest.
Feeling election stress?
Stop hitting ‘refresh’
Harvard psychologists offer tips to survive political stress and strain.
"So take a walk, take a breath, take a break from the election drama unspooling at a pace better suited to a garden slug than an advanced nation’s sophisticated vote-counting system. So, psychologists say, maybe you should get off the smartphone, get back to work, and get some perspective."
