17. Right? When I think about how it's been already and realize it's been the better part of a decade

My math has it at 8 years and I'm still counting.

That's almost a decade of pure, unadulterated insanity that we've had to cope with.

Couldn't have been a better planned or better designed psychological warfare operation by an enemy for the sole purpose of destabilizing our society, our country.

Not saying it was a conspiracy, though there is some evidence suggesting that's exactly what happened vis a vis Putin and probably China. I think our media has been a player, albeit unwittingly.probably.

I think the poisonous soup is cooked in a cauldron filled with ignorant elements, along with racism, supported by corrupt "Christian" cult figures, dark money etc.

I feel like most of those years were stolen from me, until I finally gave up expecting justice, expecting significant correction, restorative healing. I have to say though, under Biden's Administration I/we have been breathing easier. So much less stressful.

But that tfg is still free to instigate mayhem, unrest, violence and chaos, is evidence we are far from being made whole again

I am resolved to continue "checking in" but on a very limited scale, and focus on my music, my grandchildren and other creative endeavors for the rest of my remaining years on this planet. I don't want him to steal another moment of my center of gravity ever again.

It's going to be much longer than a year from now, i think. I hope I'm wrong.
