33. Not only am I tired of it all
Thu Dec 9, 2021, 11:33 PM
Dec 2021

I am also afraid.

Afraid for women of child bearing age although I am 67
Afraid of all the threats to democracy
Afraid of the consequences of the freedom to carry guns everywhere
Afraid of the next stock market crash because that’s where my pension is, thanks to my employer
Afraid that the longer we wait on bringing the guilty to justice, the less chance of it happening.

Just afraid.
