Alright, well, I'm here. The sound system is atrocious. You may hear a photograph playing in the background and Ruth Bader Ginsburg is dead. This is not a good night. So I'm going to go get sauce and yeah, that's pretty much it it's not going to be a long swell. It's just going to be a lot of dismay. Disillusionment, can you hear the photograph playing? Everything's wrong? Like other sound system is so whack. So there's that

Well, that's one step at a time. November 1. Get the selection taken care of. And let's hope I'm praying that there is a change. The change. That's all I'm looking for. A little bit of a glimmer of hope. The light at the end of the tunnel. But I know this is crazy, but they say if you see a light at the end of the tunnel, be careful. It trains coming full speed at you. There's also that

Usually I'm one that is able to find the positive in most circumstances. And I think that I've run out. I think this year has taken it all out of me. I'm literally at the at this point waiting for the news flash that States that a meteor is headed straight toward the Earth. And how much do we have to endure this year

Alright. So I'm home now. This will probably sound a little more clear. This was a pretty s***** Friday. We drove to New Jersey almost an hour to hear these bands. And as it turns out, the previous weeks, the bands that played there were so loud that the surrounding neighborhoods filed some sort of an injunction and they had to turn the volume way down

Again, I will tell you that I don't have the sad emoticon on this or, you know, the angry emoticon because is you're absolutely right. I'm not on Twitter and all that. But I know what Twitter is and you're right. It doesn't matter. I mean, it doesn't effing matter because what Trump has said doesn't matter because he changes what he says every moment, no matter what it's like

So you got to get yourself away from it, or else you become mentally unwell. L, too. So I think there was definitely a point to the story. At least that's what I took out of it. Then again, who the h***? What do I know

It just completely breaks my heart. And I think in terms of, oh, my God, our democracy, what's going to happen to it can't handle another four years of this. I think about the country going from a democracy to a dictatorial ship. And it's just hearts broken. I can't process that's where? Shut down. So thank you as well

We don't have to agree upon our feelings about facts or our feelings about truth. But we do have to agree on what is true. And when that's gone, when that's cast aside, when that's not even allowed to enter the conversation, well, what are we doing? What are we talking about at that point? And after watching that for years on end, watching them gleefully dance around, laughing at the demise of civility, the demise of reality
