Poop Bucket?

I've been trying to tell my son that this is a picture of a guy holding a bucket of poop really far away from himself because it stinks so bad. I don't think he believes me... 🤣

It's Dark in the USA

My idea that most people do exactly the wrong thing to get what they want, is ringing loud and clear right now. 183,000 Americans die every year due to poverty. If you don't believe me, look it up. As power is now consolidated in the hands of the rich, watch that number go up.

Grace and Closure

I stopped to talk to Grace at the memory care my dad was at all summer, after my TV job tonight. I thanked her for caring for dad. She said they "clicked," and she thought of him like her dad. The other woman who works evenings said he was a good guy and funny. I'm glad I did that. There was closure in it. Definitely for me, but maybe for all of us. Maybe for dad too. Tomorrow is one month since he died.

The Crime Boss

Imagine if the CEO of a company was removed from his job, and then he organized a mob and they stormed the building and caused damage and death. Now imagine that this same former CEO was convicted of falsifying business records. Imagine he was indicted and paid off large sums of money for crimes such as sexual assault. Imagine the same person lied over and over and it was proven that he maliciously lied about immigrants, and other people. Imagine he used inflated numbers that could not exist in the scenarios in which he was using them. Then imagine, dire warnings from people who worked with him that he should never be in power again. And then, imagine that the company's board of directors rehired him to be CEO again.

How to Become a Dictator

If you ever wondered how the likes of Hitler and other dictators could gain power, now I guess we know. First they vilify a group of people. Then they inflame the prejudice and hatred of the paranoid. Pretty soon it doesn't matter if there is any truth in it at all because that hatred burns so hot.
