I’m really starting to wonder if a large enough critical mass of people are going to “get it” soon enough to avert an extended period of darkness and austerity in our country.

Intellectual curiosity and critical thought just aren’t common enough. Pain will be our teacher.

I can’t pretend anymore that positive vibes will overcome the level of sheer idiocy I see every day. Somebody please convince me I’m wrong.

I’m just going to focus on loving my family and those I communicate with who share a freer vision of the world, and try to have a laugh or two along the way.
