If you are so fucking stupid that you think people ringing the alarm bells are just looking for attention:

1) Get the fuck out of my followers

2) Go fuck yourself

No, I am not looking for your attention, dipshit. I’m looking to wake your stupid ass up.
Seriously, I absolutely HATE with the fire of a thousand suns moments like this when I feel a helpless terror at just how asleep a ton of people are as the flames rise.

There is no task on Twitter more thankless than telling people who hate fighting that they need to fight.
I haven’t felt this much “Yelling at the screen during a horror movie” anxiety since 2015 when people weren’t hearing how much of danger Trump’s narcissism posed.

Folks, we have one year left to stave off the death of our democracy.

We are getting filibustered into our graves.

So, there I was, in the middle of a vast wildlife preserve with sweeping views over wetlands.

Around my neck: High powered binoculars and a top notch camera with a zoom lens the size of a surface-to-air missile.

And I wasn’t seeing a damn thing.

1/
Then behind me I hear the crunchety-crunchety-crunch of someone walking along the gravel road toward where I’m standing.

Friendly woman walks up. She’s just out for some exercise. Just out for a little walk.

I’m at least two miles into the preserve at this point mind you.

2/
She looks at my camera and binocs as I turn back to scanning the horizon.

She could clearly see that I was both a Birder *and* a Photographer.

If there were birds to be seen, oh, I would see them. And I would take pictures of them.

My last comment about that candidate with the good ad everyone is sharing…

In 2018 and 2020 we repeatedly rushed in super early to back candidates we knew nothing about in districts we didn’t understand.

We poured a lot of money into candidates we liked from early ads.

1/
As a result, we ended up:

1) Backing some of the wrong horses - and losing where we might have won with a different candidate.

2) Over-funding some campaigns while others could have used the money.

2/
The midterms are a year away.

We can’t afford to back the wrong horses or misspend this time.

We also can’t afford to pour excess time, money or attention into races that are entirely out of reach.

This entirely summarizes my relationship with Twitter lately:

A while ago, I posted about getting my car back and thanked some very kind people who, unprompted, put some money in my tip jar which helped offset some of the bill. I was appreciative and wanted them to know…

1/
Some woman replied, all pissed off and offended, that I “took donations” when her husband used to “lie in gravel” to repair her kids’ cars.

So, let’s just pull this one apart a bit.

The lady was mad that people wanted to help me pay for something *she* got for free.

2/
And this was a person who followed me.

I’ve been on Twitter since 2016. I’ve written the equivalent of nine novels in that time.

That content might be valueless to the vast majority of people. However, if they follow me, apparently they find some value in it.

A mere $1,390 later, my beloved Honda has shiny new rotors, calipers, brake pads, and brake lines.

When your kids are the passengers, don’t eff with their safety.

Thanks to the very kind folks who threw a few beans in my can. Truly thankful. I appreciate you.
And allow me to just rave about this garage a bit…

Car was supposed to be done by end of day. Around noon, owner calls me. Brake lines aren’t fitting quite right. Doesn’t feel comfortable giving me the car back with them. Wants to pull them and get replacements. Might be tmrw.
Apologizes profusely. Called as early as he could in case I need to make other plans.

Calls two hours later. Got OEM replacements. Will be done by EOD. Will leave it for pickup after hours.

Did more work. Upgraded the parts. Finished on time. Charges me $200 under estimate.

My beloved aging Honda is in the shop for what will likely be a brake job. I don’t have a ride so I have to wait for it.

I am going to drink all of this cafe’s coffee. All of it.
OMG. The repair is going to cost $1,500.

I’m going to cry. Well, that just ruined my day/week/month.
Brakes, rotors, calipers, brake lines.

And it’s gonna take at least all day.

And now I’m going to refill my coffee and go dejectedly walk a few miles home in flip-flops.

Damnit.
