January

1/1

Iraq’s US Embassy was on fire, attacked by protesters, and Trump is the guy in charge. God help us.

1/4

Iran…razor thin evidence for the attack. Nothing to gain. Drums of war. Life goes on.

Trump is fucking crazy and maybe that’s not even his fault (being generous here). But that does not excuse the people who bend themselves into pretzels trying to justify his actions.

1/8

Apparently, the Iran thing seems to be blowing over. No one was killed in the airstrikes. Trump delivered an incoherent speech.

1/11

So here we are. A long losing baseball season possibly re-electing Trump before we even get to the Ravens getting to redeem themselves.

1/12

Trump congratulated Tenn which further infuriated me…. He doesn’t like Maryland or Baltimore because we don’t like him. And I’m so pissed that we lost like that…

1/13

Trump tweeted a fake pic of snow at the White House yesterday. It was 65 degrees here. I think at this point he’s just fucking with people. He also retweeted a super obviously fake pic of Pelosi and Schumer in Muslim head gear. He has to know that no one is fooled. And either way, this shit is so undignified and counter-productive anyway. But this is what it is like in 2020!

Future Self: remember this!!! Remember all of this!!!

1/14

The #DemDebate is on…Andrew Yang is not in it. Failed to meet the polling threshold…or the mainstream Democrats are scared of a man who makes too much sense.

1/15

Oh… #NeverWarren and #NeverBernie are trending because Democrats are determined to lose the 2020 election.

1/20

MLK Day. I wonder if we’ll ever get to a world where we’re not in constant struggle over every little thing. Where every holiday isn’t a rhetorical war. Where every day isn’t a depressing trip through the darkness of the moment. We’ll never know…until it happens…

Lots of MLK rhetoric by Trump and Kellyanne Conway…all self-involved and OFF. It’s all about you.

1/21

Apparently Adam Schiff had a good opening to the Impeachment trial. 3 Schumer amendments to the rules defeated 53-47. Gonna be a big show, ultimately resulting in no change. But maybe people will see this fool for who he is, and it’ll help bring him down.

1/22

Trump impeachment presses on. Haven’t been watching but my Democratic friends approve of how it’s going. Find the Angry White House Staffer is more trustworthy than Palmer Report.

1/24

People compliment Schiff as impeachment manager. At least, those who don’t hate him.

Space Force logo looks like Star Trek.

1/25

I spend a lot of thought contemplating what other people do or don’t do with their time. Video games. (Not reading.) Movies.

We only ever see movies once. Rarely re-watch something.

I read. I write. I don’t play video games. I get back to one of my teachers…who said he pitied the person who has no creative outlet. But that’s just the culture we have…

9/1 Kicker for the Ravens (not Justin Tucker) got robbed and beaten in East Baltimore, teeth knocked out. Pretty fucking awful. 9/4 Bob Woodward Trump book getting the attention of the White House. Let’s be honest; how many backstories about yourself can you dismiss as simply being from “disgruntled ex-employees”? Doesn’t say much for you as a boss, now does it? 9/5 Trump is losing his mind with a “white House Official” who wrote a New York Times op/ed and used the word “lodestar.” People think it’s Pence. Stay tuned. 9/6 Trump is so dumb. Demanding the New York Times “find out” who wrote the Op/Ed. Uh, dummy? They know but are obligated to protect their sources. 9/15 Trump…relentlessly tweeting bullshit about the witch hunt. Kavanaugh attempted to rape someone in high school and 65 or so people sign a letter saying he was a good guy? 9/17 Kavanaugh fucking sexually assaulted someone and at the end of the day, the shit simply won’t matter. Another Clarence Thoma...

April, 2019

April 2019 4/5 Mitch McConnell rammed through a bill that limits debate time on Federal judges. 30 hours to 2 hours. Trump is going to have a field day for the next 2-6 years. 4/7 “I’m gonna get an education, work hard, and take responsibility for my own life!” doesn’t make a catchy thing to yell at hate rallies. 4/10 Trump toured Mt. Vernon and criticized it and said that Washington should have named it after himself. 4/11 Abortion rights curtailed in Ohio. 6 week ban. Stay tuned. 4/14 Trump barred transgender troops and California National Guard defied him. 4/16 Notre Dame fire and Trump’s dumbass suggestion how to fight it…. My latest epiphany—I don’t want the next President to be a Messiah, I just want a competent and non-controversial leader…A Gerald Ford type. Someone to steady things and nominate replacements for 2 or 3 retiring judges. Leaning toward Biden…jus...

April, 2020

4/1 Trump bragging that he’s number 1 on Facebook??? Seriously, what the fuck? Every day with this guy… 4/2 A lot of people online have tweeted about their boredom during “quarantine” or “lockdown” and while I don’t judge, I don’t think it’s been as profound for me. Partly because I still go to a job. I still wake up and get dressed and work on my writing. I watch Star Trek. I take a nap. I do an afternoon writing session. And the day goes by… Every day is a fucking circus with Trump as the clown. 4/4 Trump again seizing shipments from planes working for states to add to National “stockpile.” This is after Kushner said states needed to be more prepared. They have gone from incompetent to downright cruel. And meanwhile, using the confusion to repeal clean air laws for cars. And the Trump supporters blame Democrats for trying to use a crisis for political gain. This is really maddening. There are real pro...
