    Americans, If you haven't yet, please do, either right now or on November 5th.

    I'm not gonna do the usual routine of saying "I won't tell you who to vote for. " blah blah. Whatever. This election is too important.

    Vote for Kamala Harris.
    Vote to protect free speech, human rights, and the Democratic Republic of the United States.

    Here are two sources that articulate the importance of not letting a self described dictator wannabe hold one of the most powerful offices in the world, (apart from him wanting to nuke a fucking hurricane, that is) much better than I can.

    I saw on Twitter this morning that he’s already getting the ball rolling on calling the election fraudulent and rigged. Bleak stuff.

    Probably means he knows he’s losing, but it’s hard not to get the feeling January 6th Redux is gonna happen.

    This is such a “yes and” topic for me, so I’ll focus on the “yes” by coming from the direction of one of my “and”s.

    …If there were to be a march on DC for Palestine and I could go, I’d much rather march on Kamala’s White House. I fully sympathize with the disenchanted. If you can’t vote, I understand what’s kept you. If you won’t vote, I understand where you’re coming from. But if you can you should. We have to try to pick our coming battles.

    America, nation of God damn idiots.
    Ah well. People will get what they asked for. And will suffer.
    Unfortunately, those of us with hearts and brains will suffer as well.
