1787:
Elizabeth Willing Powel: "Well, Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?"
Benjamin Franklin: "A republic, if you can keep it."

2024:
Waiter: "Anything on the menu you'd like to order?"
The Electorate: "I'd like fascism please. Well done. Topped with ketchup."

I gotta ask all the folks that voted for That Guy, like, after everything we learned about him: "What was it about him that appealed to you?"

...and we lost the Senate.

"OMG, it must be so so so late right now."
::looks at clock::
"It's only 10PM? It feels like it's been 84 years...."

Well. Here we go.

Thoughts Before Bed:

"Good night. And good luck."

I won't rest easy until she takes the oath of office.

Celebrating getting paid on my second writing gig, hitting the halfway point in my third, and two clean bills of health from my doctors.

One does not celebrate with just sandwiches and cereal.

I'm not saying my little town had built a super secret wind force field, but... ::points::

Looking up some references for an opera house for a project, and I'm stiill completely blown away by San Antonio's Majestic Theater.

I love that they start shows "at dusk" and by the end of the show is midnight.

Overheard on the Internet:

"I've done some stupid shit in my time."
"I think you're doing some stupid shit right now."

@Holocluck - I watch a lot of it. For American news, I tend to stick with CBS News, but in general I look outside the US for persepctive on the US.
