If I was a Russian, I would have left long ago. I would consider it common sense to avoid any participation in a genocidal war.

Earlier today: Hours later.....

You know the day is coming where Trump will be handed over into the custody of a bailiff after he is sentenced, right? You know that will eventually happen, right?

My interpretation is that the economic stimulus laws passed during the pandemic has irreversibly changed the economy for the better. Which is why we have historically low unemployment and still plenty of job openings at the same time.

Yes, that is completely in character for Georgia.

Trump supporters are trying to convince themselves that some good will come out of the discovery phase of the trials.

From a legal perspective, that is evidence that Trump knew he lost the 2020 election, that his claims of election fraud were false, and that he wanted the certifying of the electoral college votes stopped despite that.

Sounds outrageous. Someone should go to prison for this.

Yayyyy....

Ironic: conspiracy to defraud the United States was what I thought Trump would get over the Russia collusion in the 2016 election. But here it is in a whole different election.

Four charges it looks like..

The Special Counsel is going to be making a statement, it seems. https://www.c-span.org/video/?529681-1/special-counsel-jack-smith-delivers-statement Apparently the grand jury in the Jan. 6, 2021, investigation has voted on it today.

Although.... during the Covid shutdown, I binge watched "BoJack Horseman" and that freaked me out about mortality for a few weeks.

I chose to go into the field of political science, where everyone is like a senior citizen anyway so I always feel young even though it's been 20 years since I graduated.

Is it funny that the guy with the Shinji Ikari avatar is telling others to chill? Yeah.

For an example of it, read this column. https://medium.com/@CollapseSurvival/the-profound-loneliness-of-being-collapse-aware-28ac7a705b9 It's basically an attitude of pessimism and fatalism that many people have recently adopted. Is it big enough to call it a movement? Maybe. Climate change plays a big role in it, but I'm not convinced it accurately aligns with the science of climate change. I think it also has to do with the prevalence of social media that you can use to doomscroll. There are also influences from the Trump presidency, the challenges to democracy, the COVID-19 pandemic and wars (both actually occuring and hypothesized). Seriously guys, I think you need to chill. When you're so pessimistic that you think computers are going to kill you (AI), you're just spiraling.

Okay, that hurts.

He's masturbating in heaven's porno theaters now.

Congratulations to Biden on his reelection. (Any of the five on the right would have a good chance of defeating Biden, but Republicans are going to choose the guy who will be in prison in November 2024.)
