Corporate media is more outraged at the possibility of a Democratic socialist entering the NY Mayors office than at the certainty that a white supremacist has reentered the White House.

Corporate politicians are more outraged that Mamdani won't condemn something he didn't say than they are at Trump repeating racist things he definitely said.

Silicon Valley is more accepting of a racist who dehumanizes Muslims than they are of a Muslim who defies billionaires.

Sigh...Are we great yet?

As a 65yo, I have achieved a certain hard-earned wisdom that may have eluded you. I will share:

1) Just get up and go pee, it's not goin' away.

2) Start the fitted sheet at the hardest-to-reach corner.

3) If you get a cold drink, only to discover that you already had one, drink the coldest one first.

4) Work and feel shitty, or don't-work and don't feel shitty. Don't-work and feel shitty is a lousy choice.

5) Being weird is, in fact, a perfectly normal thing to be. *Everyone* does it.
