BLOURNAL
The latest edition of “I’m not American but…”
Not in the best form this morning after all of Trump’s bluster yesterday. Actually, “bluster” seems like a huge understatement in this case because the nutjob literally threatened to enact genocide over his social media if he didn’t get what he wanted.
Maybe the real April Fools were the friends we made along the way…
So, I was initially thinking about naming this blournal entry: “Make April Fools’ Day Great Again'“, especially since nearly everything to do with Trump and the MAGA movement feels like a needlessly dragged out April Fools joke that refuses to end.
Could we please have a normal 2026? Pretty please? Or is that too much to ask?
Sigh.
Look, I said I wasn’t going to doomscroll in 2026, but when the world is figuratively and literally on fire and the powers-at-be are actively pouring gasoline on the flames, it’s hard to resist the temptation.
I’m Not American…
…but even I’m well aware of just how painful the next few years are gonna be because it will have some kind of knock-on effect on the rest of us.
Election Day
Hi, everyone.
So, I spent a significant portion of yesterday trying to write a “blournal” entry that was supposed to be a look back at this year’s Halloween, but it unintentionally morphed into a diatribe about the real-world horror that is the presidential election.
