11. So lame

I am taking a leaf out of Charlie Chaplin’s The Great Dictator and going with gallows humor to weather this ;-/.

For those of us who aren’t retired (which isn’t very many people on DU ), partly how Trump and that type of male anywhere on the planet (including these unsavory little male creeps local to me) work their magic is by ensuring you pay attention to them.

Going forward I’ll count it as a day I spent supporting Trump (and by extension his creepy local analogs) every time I spend a day procrastinating wrt work, not exercising, eating junk or generally embracing learned helplessness.

Aside from popping onto DU to offer moral support (I am far from Trump) a few times daily, I am ignoring Trump and all other creeps. I have put Trump, Putin, Xi Ping, that El Salvador creep, Musk, my communist CM, all those creepy, technocratic leeches etc on permanent ignore.

No one should have to think this much about the dullest and creepiest men ever..


(I am off my emoji strike ;-/…..too many damn protests weighing me down)
