Feeling Gloomy

Mainly it's because of Dr Skull's health problems -- on top of everything else, he now has an infected tooth which has to be pulled as soon as possible -- but also because of the state of the country, which honestly, can we please not?

While I was sitting in the waiting room at the oral surgeon waiting for Dr Skull, Fox News was playing on the television. It's just ludicrously non-stop propaganda. Can people actually take that silliness seriously? They spent twenty minutes saying, over and over, that the Democrats had shut down the government because of their hatred for Trump. 

No explaining. No further details. Just that, over and over.

Then they moved on to "left wing violence," which has apparently increased over the past decade. Again, they just said that over and over, for about ten minutes.

As we were leaving, they had moved on to Trump, who is the best president ever. Everyone agrees!

This is my country? This is my country.

It did! I've just been too gloomy to check for comments. Dr Skull is indeed better. The rest of the world continues to implode.
