I'm Giving Up

If I am going to watch this democracy slide into fascism, then I am going to be as informed as I can about it. I will have to sacrifice many hours of leveling my World of Warcraft characters and most of my hair to stress, but I am no longer going to wait for bloggy friends to link the best stories. I am going to read it all, the Howler, Firedoglake, Kos(or whatever), you name it, I'm going there.

I will have to start meditating again to avoid going completely crazy. I will have to work out more to avoid letting my sadness and anger at the Democratic Party's continued compliance ruin my body. I will likely combust sometime around Thanksgiving and be healed by the 24 pound organic, free-range turkey I ordered for the event. If my family is lucky, I'll even cook it. If I am lucky, I will die in a turkey frying incident and not be forced to watch a country I love devolve into a bad science fiction movie state.

Don't forget to start loud political harangues with friends and loved ones in public places.

It's a hard road. The Revolution starts now.

I have to get all the books I want to read that I don't own already, before they get banned. Memorization time!

If you're really looking for effect, I'd recommend loud political harangues with strangers.

Pumpkin, why are your knickers in a knot?

I am worried about your current mental status. Could you give your favorite AG a bit more back story on this one?

It's like the Internets have gone nuts. First a homophobe posts at 3B! in comments and now this? AG is very busy. Can y'all keep it together for a few more weeks while I fee up some damn time?!
