I refuse to read or listen to anything by or about him

A few months ago I realized I couldn't even look at his photo in the news -- I had to scroll down to hide his face and just read the headline. Then later I realized I couldn't even get myself to say his name. Just now I realized I haven't read or watched anything about him over the past three weeks or so.

And I've been a lot happier for it.

I just hope the Great Gods of Karma hit him with everything they've got -- and then some.

Trump-cult city. I can hardly wait to get through it.

I know what you mean, though. Can't stand to look at him. Can't stand to hear him. Can't stand to see the name.
I want him out of my head!

On this site his name in all its forms are on my block list. I still have an occasional appearance in the trending area but that keeps exposure to a more breathable minimum... here anyway. Much nicer view.
