It's not over.

I'm tired, physically, mentally and emotionally exhausted.  I am safe but I am so bloody fucking tired.  I want to escape to a place where I can rest, and recharge, somewhere safe from the worries that plague me daily.   However, that's not possible, physically, mentally, or financially.

I'm stuck.  The depression and anxiety have taken their toll.  Even though the oncologist is quite happy with my renal cell carcinoma prognosis, it too has left me exhausted.

There is so much darkness in the world surrounding me, hatred and ignorance.  The angry orange shit gibbon with his penchant for Russian cock, Russian whore piss, and the complacent, complicit orange cocksuckers that is the GOP these days have left me hating what my country has become.  America is facing a moral and probably mortal wounding.  It saddens me.  It sickens and disgusts me.  This is not the United States of America that I used to love.  This is a dystopian cyberpunk nightmare.

Brown children in cages, the LGBTQ+ community under attack, the rich getting richer and the poor getting fucked.  This is the GODDAMN 21st century!  This is not how we're supposed to be.

I can only hope that we can come to our senses in November and begin the process of trying to fix this absolute fucking shit storm.

I am fucking exhausted, but I remain safe.
Peace, Love and Harmony to all of us.

Don't be a Dick.

The Blues aren't playing tonight, so I sit here jamming to music no one else can hear, doing this bloggy-blog thingy.  Today has been a busy bloggy-blog thingy day.  In addition to redesigning the look and layout of Midnight Ramblings, this one is the seventh post I've put together today.  Not that the previous six took much work, but hey, they still count right?  Remember last November when images alerting warning you of the impending  'REBOOT' started to appear?  Probably not, but you can just nod you head in agreement, it'll make me feel good. Those weekly images would have been the hard work I did this afternoon.  

I know, right?  bustin' my ass, working up a sweat and saving the world.  Whew, it's a rough gig, but someone has to do it.  If only saving the world were that easy.   

#SaveTheWorld.  

No muss, no fuss, and we're all happy.   All of us, happy and contented.  Sadly though, that Utopia can never happen. As a species, we're too different, too many fears and hatreds and ill-conceived ideologies. 

"If we were to wake up some morning and find that 

everyone was the same race, creed and color, 

we would find some other causes for prejudice by noon."

We could go a long way towards a better place if all 7.3 billion of us, every last person on the planet, would choose to follow four little words; "Don't Be A Dick"

Thanks for staying around.

See you tomorrow.
