Dear Friends,
I read this thing that Sarah Kendzior wrote the other day about why Trump will get away with all of his shit and it was damn depressing. Merrick Garland is a fucking piece of shit and they all just protect each other. It's a joke, really, and I'm pissed at myself for believing so long that good things were at the heart of our nation.
It's nothing, as I said to Tom and Dave yesterday on our walk, that a few beheadings couldn't turn around. The French had it right, I think, but instead of "Let them eat cake," here in America it is more like "Let's charge them 10x what it costs us to make the cake and then take half back before they can have a bite." Fuckin' assholes.
But that's not how I want to start the day.

I'm glad the week ended strong. We had dinner with Doug and then celebrated Elise's birthday a bit. I'm so glad things are coming together for her as she starts her 30th year. It's time for things to go her way.
Tonight we continue the celebration with a "Roaring 20's" party. I literally have nothing to wear that is even close to "Roaring 20's" so I'm playing the "dad" card. I'm wearing whatever the hell I want.

Go listen to some Chicago or some Gordon Lightfoot. Maybe not any of the Chicago stuff that came after 1975. Most of that sucks.

See you tomorrow.
It's everywhere. Stand with Ukraine. Fuck the Russians and their American peers.
