I haven't been writing much these last two months because I'm outraged and in a panic and it's hard to organize my thoughts. If Social Security is removed, I have no income. If Medicare is removed, I can't see the Doctor or afford my medications. And most everything else would impact somebody I know or know of. I keep thinking "Day 1" or "Week 1" is going to look like this.
9:00 am PST-Inauguration, kill Biden and Harris with Mob
9:30 am-Abolish Constitution
9:45 am-Disband Congress
10:00-Put chosen people into posts, including Gaetz, Patel and Hesring (or whatever their names are, the ones the Senators and populace don't like for the more obvious reasons)
11:00-Declare death penalty to anyone who identifies as LGBTQ+ or Democrat or has ever posted pictures of two men holding hands, kissing or hugging on the internet or two women doing the same.
11:30-Fire all Democrat Governors and replace them with the Republican Governor-wannabes who lost their most recent election in exchange to hand over their populace.
12:00-Lunch as Trump is disaffected by the sounds of millions tossed into meat grinders by the Police, FBI and Military. He performs "corrective rape" on big-name lesbians, bisexuals and pansexuals to prove "there's no such thing."
That's what I've been dealing with this whole two months, namely that something like this can happen anytime for the rest of my life. I can't deal with that anymore without going crazy, so I guess I'm just going to live my life and hope they don't kill me, which they probably will unless the West Coast secedes to form Cascadia.
To move on from that, I have tickets to the Seattle Kraken vs. the San Jose Sharks on January 30th, the Seattle Mariners vs. the Baltimore Orioles on June 4th, the Seattle Mariners vs. the Cleveland Guardians on June 14th (where the Mariners may be dressed as the Seattle Steelheads) and the Seattle Mariners vs. the Los Angeles Dodgers on September 26th.
