This isn't the first time she's done it, but I just can't get over Susie Wiles making a talking point of how she can run Trump because she's had to mollify an alcoholic father.

There is so much going on there very much including dramatic irony at a level you rarely see outside of Greek tragedy.

1) Mom's senior apartment staff is taking good care of her while she's sick.

I don't actually think that the Trump Reiner screed changed anything.

It's cumulative.

The recent protests, elections, and MTG betrayal made it abundantly clear that he is weak.

This is a good spot for folks who want to distance themselves to do so, ostensibly for decency's sake.
It's always interesting when this happens and every time I'm left wondering: why this?
It is rare that i reach out to as many trump advisers and officials that I did today and get literally no one willing to defend this, even off the record.

Today's 3 Good Things:
1) Took Mom to annual wellness check & on a few errands.
2) Worked on radio show stuff.
3) I have the luxury of living somewhere warm & relatively safe, with a roof over my head, food in my fridge, & clean water, in a world where those things can be scarce.

It's weird that everything is a matter of National Security™ except 25th Amendmenting the biggest threat to *actual* national security...

Since it never feels like I get to read anything, I tried to keep track this year. I'm not doing, like, a recap with covers & titles, but I read something like 19 books/short stories/bound comic run collections/short film scripts; 30+ feature-length screenplays; & several audiobooks/dramas. Yay, me.
