I think that many good people have gone from tiredness to fatigue. It is as if we exist in a darker version of "Lord of the Flies." Many of us are surrounded by maga-types in everyday life. The sociopathic felon will re-claim the White House next month. It is normal to go to "worst case scenario" when serious threats arise. And the thing is, the next four years will bring about that worst case.

That doesn't mean we are helpless, for there are things we can do. Those who need to rest should rest. Those still active should be contacting their elected representatives to express opposition to the bags of shit dust that the felon wants to appointment. Use this forum to report on your contacts with elected officials, be they Democrats or republican. Encourage others to do the same.
