#socialmedia has made everything more exhausting and less appealing. I just want to engage in my profession, my family and my community without having to post and read posts all the god damn time. When will we realize what we’ve done to ourselves?

So, while you and your family are struggling to make ends meet, what is the President and his administration focused on?   Framing a former Olympic canoeist for “tampering” with the Reflecting Pool and "causing" damage that was... already there. It's bleak.
