Congrats to Joe and Kamala!!! I’m not easily moved one way or the other but seeing the crowds of people shouting for joy at their victory makes my eyes sting with tears. Even if they should still be doing it from home because of the virus. :-) Still, I could hug the hell outa both Joe and Kamala right now!
It started becoming obvious that my prediction about Trump losing would be right a couple of days ago but having it officially declared is great! :-) I was a little worried the first night and shocked as well when it looked like Trump may win not just due to how many people hate Trump but because when I get a feeling that strong for that long, I’m always right. One day several months ago I awoke with the distinct feeling that Trump would not be re-elected. I just didn’t know who would be because no one knew who the candidates would be at the time.
LMAO at all the Republicans and their little meltdowns. Aw, such a shame that you don’t get to tell a woman what to do with her own life and body as easily and to keep her from “murdering” a cluster of cells with zero awareness. And isn’t it a shame that you don’t get to trample the rights of gays and lesbians?
Although…as Tom pointed out, not all Republicans are anti-abortion or anything like that. Just like not all liberals like me are okay with forking over billions of dollars to other countries.
It’s a double victory to me because of Kamala. I knew her not being white would help as I still firmly believe without a doubt from everything I’ve experienced, seen, read and heard that the majority of the country does indeed support non-whites. I still think Biden would have won even if she was as white as I am but being black/Asian certainly helped to raise those chances. It’s yet another example along with Obama and countless other successful non-whites that the old saying “no one will give me a chance” it’s a piss-poor excuse. Okay, maybe in a place like Wyoming but in most places, I think they have just as much of a chance, if not more, than the rest of us.
Having Dems in and Republicans out regardless of gender and color is what’s most important. Trump was the closest the US has ever come to having a crazy dictator and it actually got a little scary at times. Nothing he’s done or could do in the future is likely to ever affect my husband and I personally, but he was bad for the country as a whole. Acceptance of gays, lesbians and Jews really took a hit, thanks to his shit. The basic message he sent was that gays and lesbians aren’t human, Jews are shit, and women are basically scum as well who aren’t as capable and as deserving as men.
Well, guess what, Mr. Trump? I’m just as sexist as you and having Kamala for VP and hopefully one day for president, if not some other woman, is a real gem to me. :-) I’m smart enough to know women are just as capable as men along with the fact that the crime in the world would go way down if it weren’t for men.
Not too thrilled to hear Trump say he’s going to try to make a comeback in four years, though Tom doesn’t think he’ll succeed. I hope not! I wish he would just drop dead already. I guess Mitt Romney is going to try to get in which would suck. Where most people hate us Jews, I’m not exactly fond of Mormons. Too extreme, and the child collecting they do is wrong not to mention bad for an already overpopulated planet.
Speaking of the headaches men bring, it looks like the cock across the street is gearing up for a saw party. I’m guessing this due to the way he backed in rear-end first and then pulled up toward the street. I figured it was only a matter of time. I’m just surprised it took this long. I think there’s a chance Tom sawing might have encouraged him as well. Only difference is Tom uses his saw once a year or less. Not once a month or more.
When I was outside chatting with him as he was staking down the liner where he’s going to place more rocks on the back corner, it was one commercial plane, small plane, and helicopter after another. That, the motorcycles, and the projects really do stop here! Fortunately, the motorcycles haven’t been as bad as I expected them to be. I only hear them once or twice a week but that’s all it takes to wake me up if I’m asleep when they go zooming by. The cooler weather should lessen them even more but that doesn’t mean I won’t have to listen to landscaping every single day, the planes, and whatever projects people do.
Yesterday, I opened the back door and thought I was hearing thunder. Then Tom, standing in the carport said, “You can practically touch that plane.”
I stepped to the edge of the carport and could see a huge jet landing at McClellan. We didn’t see any insignia on the plane but had there been one we could have easily seen it. This wasn’t no 8000 feet but easily 2000 feet or less! It’s just fucking ridiculous here. But I’m now so used to living in noisy places that I don’t know anything else and I wonder how weird it may be to live anywhere quiet, not that I expect to ever do so. This is simply all I know now. Maricopa was the quietest place I ever lived as an adult and Auburn would have been the quietest if it weren’t for Jesse’s mutts and his own damn noise but other than that, noisy places are all I’ve lived in so I honestly can’t imagine anything different.
Tom made an appointment with Dr. A and will see her next month.
I’m going to be trying a new tooth whitener that you swab onto the teeth instead of the strips, and you only need to leave it on for five minutes instead of a half-hour.
