Forgive me if I’m not super excited

Posted on August 20, 2020 by A Dreamer

Don’t get me wrong, Kamala Harris’ nomination *is* historic and it *is* exciting. But I remember what happened last time. Americans loooooove their racism and sexism, even to their own detriment. Congress has shown it can’t do shit and now … Continue reading →

Remember when we pondered the possibility of a brokered convention? I’ll admit, I’ve not watched a bit of the convention – I’m not the target audience, my vote is solid already, and I am not going to learn anything new. … Continue reading →

Everything is totally normal.

Posted on August 17, 2020 by A Dreamer

I mean, it’s very healthy and such to be having dreams about getting in fights with government agents who are stealing mailboxes, right? Gotta say, my administration/pandemic/GOP related anger/depression/anxiety has reached new highs, which I didn’t think possible, but it … Continue reading →

Well, I guess it’s not *bad* news

Posted on August 16, 2020 by A Dreamer

PPE, but FASHION!

Posted on August 15, 2020 by A Dreamer

Sigh.

Posted on August 14, 2020 by A Dreamer

This was supposed to be the long weekend where I watched the Padres play the Nationals FOUR times in a row. Obviously, that’s not happening. (Also, still waiting on that refund, Nats.) Still taking a shorter long weekend off work, … Continue reading →
