This seals it.

2020 is now at par with 2016 in ranking as the Worst Year Ever.

I am crying so hard right now I can barely breathe.

I loved #RuthBaderGinsburg for what she did, who she was, and everything in between.

I mourn for our nation and our highest court.

1/
There are no words to describe what this means, in purely negative terms, for our nation, and for the future of any kind of right you can imagine.

This is how our dystopia begins

Right here.

I feel like I've been kicked in the gut.

This is a nightmare.

2/
I have to admit that a cloud of hopelessness is hanging over my head right now and following me wherever I turn.

I am made Eeyore.

I would love to to think this will turn our way and that we will be able to do now what the Republicans managed with Merrick Garland.

But...

3/
I have given this same moment my hope too many times and it has left me broken and cynical.

They pushed through a vicious drunk, a literal bestie of the likes of Ann Coulter and Tucker Carlson for Christ's sake.

Kavanaugh's confirmation fully exposed our ineffectualness .

4/
Lately I've come to realize that they just want it more.

They have always understood the long game better than we have and that allows them a kind of patience that the left has never exhibited anywhere. Ever.

Oh. And they will literally say and do anything to win.

5/
And its hard to fight against that kind of amoral, laser focused, determination.

Its not just that they will do anything to win, it's that they will do anything if they lose.

Ask Barack Obama and both Bill and Hillary Clinton what its like to beat the radical right.

There was no interest with first group of paintings. But, I'm desperate, so here is the third set. If you e interested in any of them DM and we can discuss favorable cost and shipping terms. Proceeds go to my legal defense fund. My next court date is Thursday.

Thank you.

I'm not sure if anyone on here still cares, and I wouldn't blame you if you didn't, trust. My depression and illnesses have swallowed me up and I get anxiety even thinking about logging on because I used have people on here who cared deeply and I have alienated most of them.

1/
I have done the same IRL and have literally no one out here who cares anymore. I have a major court date on the 17th and need to get my lawyers some to keep them from dropping the case and while I have some, it's not nearly enough.

2/
I've decided to post some artwork on here to see if anyone was interested. All of them will not ship for at least 7 days as I have not yet top coated them.

The sizes and materials are noted with the pics.

Thanks to everyone who reads this, and to anyone who is interested, DM.

"I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones."

- Albert Einstein

The war being fought today by Vladimir Putin's Russia will not end well for anyone. Not for the world. Not for Europe. Not for America.

1/
It obviously will not end well for the Ukraine.

But, contrary to Putin's personal hopes and belief, it will especially not end well for Russia.

This is a nightmare of a war on so many levels and too few seem to understand the implications or the possible ramifications

2/
And for those Americans who think that this is a foreign war that does not undermine our domestic interests and so, therefore, requires military, if not, diplomatic neutrality, consider the following.

Russia is a bully nation that is run by an even bigger bully.

Yesterday there were dozens of Trump supporters protesting along a major traffic artery here in Kenosha, one that runs directly in front of our largest hospital; a hospital once again filled to bursting with Covid-19 admissions.

They were protesting all covid-19 mandates.

1/
They do not want them anywhere in public, and, it seems, especially not schools.

No masks.
No social distancing.
No vaccine requirements.

I know a nurse who works in that building who battled Covid and who lost her own mother to the virus.

This was a shameful display.

2/
The cognitive dissonance is profound and is a danger to all of us.

I grow weary of reading about yet another of these "patriots" who, just weeks ago probably stood in such protests themselves, but who now have Covid and suddenly its all "I wish I had listened..."

I am not sure when I will be able to post next.

It's happened. Whatever chance my life had circumstances and bad luck have finally stripped away.

I have been literally thrown out of where I was living.

Most of my possessions are ruined. I have a negative bank balance .

1/
I have severe health problems that I have not even begun to address and I have no place to go.

Thanks Trump.
Thanks Covid-19
Thanks Justin.
THANKS ME.

I don't know what to do , or where to go...I am sitting on some steps and I am crying alone.

This shouldn't be my life.
2/
But the odds are stacked against people who find themselves suddenly at the bottom of the barrel.

It, sadly began with my decision to give up my life and go back to Michigan to be my mother's full time care give r.

It took three and a half years of my life.

I can't with this man anymore.

Are you serious @BernieSanders?

You'll be stanning for Russia and any anti-Hillary force until your dying day.

SENATOR, most of the capital raiders had good jobs and could afford the technology, time, and expense to be there.

1/
The Magas in the region I live in were often fairly well off financially. Well off enough to pay both arms and legs for the array of very expensive Trump signs, Trunp flags, and other types of political detritus to fill their yards and windows and automobiles with.

2/
Your economic disparity argument was never a good fit and was based more on the guiding force of your imagination than in reality.

In 2016 more of the truly impoverished in this nation voted for Hillary Clinton than for Donald Trump.

You were wrong then, now, always.
