Considering possibilities after the 2024 U.S. election
I used to be so pompous and sure of everything only 10 years ago. I've changed so much, anyone who knew me then probably would think I'm an imposter. Some of the changes I made for myself, and some were forced upon me. That's difficult to explain, but not necessary for the discussion I want to have about my government, my country, the election's results, and the possibilities for our future.

Lessons of Kindness
You taught me it was important to be a good person. You spanked it into me when I was unkind with my words or swift with my fists. In rhymes and mantras you drilled phrases into my head as my default programing. They echo still in my brain as I bite my tongue when someone ripens my temper.

My Grandma & Your Grandma. Content Warning.
This will be my first post to the Swamp community. It may also be my last. If you're a friend of mine on this platform at the moment, you've probably noticed that I don't usually comment on political threads, either. There's a reason I don't spend time in this arena and this morning is a fine example.

I Don't Know What To Say. Content Warning.
Introduction I have no words for what happened. I did not see it coming, because I knew how it would destroy the lives of so many close friends. I can't find anything about this dark day. I always want to be positive and raise people's spirits but I am struggling today.

The Changing Face of America
I live in Indiana. It's a 'Red State.' 🤢🤮 When Trump was elected President in the abysmal year of 2016, his Vice President was Mike Pence. Pence was the former governor of Indiana. Mike was a typical conservative in most ways. He was a notorious homophobe.

I am voting for Kamala Harris
What are politics for and how to think about it A perfect analogy for why we should align our beliefs to predict real-world outcomes is the role of bumpers in bowling. By using bumpers, we eliminate the chances of the worst outcomes (scoring zero) and increase the likelihood of reaching our goal. Similarly, grounding our beliefs in reality helps us think more effectively and make better predictions. Put simply referencing reality makes you think better.
