Why you do this to me, Trump?

I'm sitting here with my TV on extra loud because I have some fans running.

A test for the Emergency Broadcast System just came on.

Thought I was going to jump through my own ass.

I'm afraid now.

Not for me personally I suppose, but for the rest of the world.

The thing that scares me the most is having someone in power who does not understand basic concepts like "unintended consequences".

Hang in there, and talk to like minded people.

son is on edge. He told me the other day that he sneaks his cell phone into his pencil case just in case something goes down. He knows the consequences if he is caught and believes it is worth the risk. He says he doesn't know which scares him more, somebody coming in to shoot up his school or 45 launching a nuke. This is our world.

but I can't remember EVER being worried about someone shooting up the school.

Tell your son that he is a smart kid, and that everything is going to be alright.

I tell him that every day. I also tell him that if keeping his cell phone in his pencil case eases his mind and allows him to concentrate on his school work, then I've got his back on that when and if a teacher busts him on it. Unbelievable times.

when we had a calm, rational, intelligent adult in the WH instead of a petulant, impulsive toddler with rage issues and a massive insecurity problem, determined to show the world he has the biggest rocket?

Republicon SNAFU.

was in charge, I wasn't afraid to read the news.

If this country and the world survives the vile shitshow that is Twitler and his administration, I don't think I will take competent leadership for granted ever again.

Trump voters, you own whatever comes.

My cursing does not add to my point.

I type like I speak.

I'm Christian also. But not a good one lol.
