Applause
Sitting on a tv set with only a towel or blanket to cover you and you realize you have no idea what your lines are or the storyline. You're the lead and you've been prepping all day to be in this moment and you've

In all fairness, it is REEEEAAAAALLLYY past time for my fellow white folks to deal with our family issues. I mean, we've always been a group of people who are predisposed to destroying civilization and raping cultures. And we're absolutely witless enough to take down ourselves
Freedom
There's nothing wrong with taking a moment to rest. Science tells us that energy can be built, stored, converted and consumed. We're all biological machines that can wear down over time, ask your cardiologist about how many beats you get in a lifetime. But getting back
It's The End Of The World As We Know It
Don't do it. DON'T YOU SING IT! You DO NOT feel fine. Or if you do, why aren't you sharing whatever is making you feel fine. When you're swimming through a septic system looking for the ladder, first WHY ARE YOU SWIMMING

Ray of Light
Not my favorite Madonna song, but Like a Prayer as a title for this post is a crucifix too hot for this atheist to hold. So... Wine... There's a great wide gaping chasm of darkness and shit coming our way in the next 4 years that totally fucks
Not Ready to Make Nice

Nov 5, 2024: Revenge of the Sith
So very much... There's so much electricity streaming through my heart, my lungs, my stomach , my brain... Peak anxiety right now. This is so very bad. I feel a real need to consider leaving this place. A hermit's life maybe. I'm really getting why
