There are compensations for getting up early to go to a doctor's appointment.
According to former Congressman and media scholar David Jolly... "For context, roughly 25% of our total national debt incurred over the last 230 years actually occurred during the 4 years of the Trump administration. That's right. 25% of our entire national debt, all during the Trump years."

To be fair, "dog-abusing swindler of disabled veterans" is a perfect distillation of the last two Republican candidates for president.

In all seriousness, this is (if true) the likely tipping point in the House. "Kevin McCarthy sent a dog-abusing swindler of disabled veterans to look after your small business" is the kind of thing that starts dragging down people beyond Santos.

It's 2023 and Black people in the USA still don't have equal voting access. Like I said, the civil rights era didn't end. You are still in it.

People just pretended that the civil rights era ended once they had assassinated enough of the major civil rights leaders. But the objectives of the civil rights era have not yet been achieved.

As we roll to the end of the year and there are like, award nominations for next year starting up and people will eventually get good news in a few months.... Here's a PSA from someone who doesn't need to know this to other people who think they don't need to know this but hopefully one of you ACTUALLY does:

When you get advance news of an award or nomination, they say, "Don't tell anybody."

There is a big exception for: your editor, your agent, your co-author, etc.

Except that it turns out that normal every day people actually having savings is such an existential threat to the economy that the fed will raise interest rates up to the point of actually triggering a recession just to make sure you're living hand to mouth your entire life
