There used to be a KFC at Vine and DeLongpre in Hollywood that held a special memory. Then the city had it torn down for no good reason other than officials biting more than they could chew. My remembrance. daviddeconstructed.substack.com/p/a-finger-l...

I'm disgusted by Musk, the pudgy globalist, and that disgust is spreading as Trump continues orbiting this bitch. But there's no way I'm voting Democrat for a while. I'll just not vote or feed this diseased political system. Only a wayward asteroid is capable of burning it down. So be it.

Regrets are stupid and useless, especially later in life. Live with, and accept, your life. Why go to the grave tormented? It's like the advice to married couples about not going to bed mad.
