Yes, but you did cancel Ed Sheeran today, so there is that:

When despair for the world grows in me and I wake in the night at the least sound in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be, I go and lie down where the wood drake rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds. I come into the peace of wild things

The Peace of Wild Things by Wendell Berry
When despair for the world grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children’s lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting with their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.

All I’m saying is that President Harris wouldn’t have us looking at the futures market on a Sunday night.

It’s another example of no bad deed goes punished if committed by him. And if he lies long enough (and brandishes a fake Time Magazine cover brazenly enough) they’ll reward him by claiming he’s their Man of the Year. #pathetic

From WAPO A Time Magazine with Trump on the cover hangs in his golf clubs. It’s fake. (Story from 2017.)

They didn’t want to hear she’d help first time home buyers and people taking care of family at home. They just heard the hate.

Sesame Street’s parody of Donald Grump is amazing.”Who is Donald Grump?” Maria asks & the grouches say he has the most trash of any grump in the world…[he’s] loaded with trash.” Donald appears & misleads, sows chaos, fires Elmo for being a helper, & even Oscar tells him to scram.
