There is a lot to unpack in your essay, T. L.

As you started out saying, it really is best to scroll past the idiotic postings of the leftists as engaging them in any factual ways is head banging time. A back and forth usually ends with them resorting to swearing and name calling. I stopped it (mostly!) several years ago.

Everything else seems to be rushing at break neck speed towards some type of showdown or a major event of some sort. From this Atlas (comet?) object heading our way through the solar system to wars and rumors of wars. To 'what is Trump going to say or do today' to, no one has been arrested, to yada yada yada. The PTB don't really care if nothing adds up or, if conclusions can be drawn that we are nothing but fodder and damn what the people think.

My wife and I found out in '09 at that Tea Party rally protest in D. C. that what we think does not matter. Every 2 to 4 years I swear I won't vote again, at least in the state or federal elections because it no longer really matters but, there I am, pulling the lever for the best of the worst!

As I scroll through X, Facebook & GAB I swear I'm going to shut it all down as there is so much crap being posted, including a LOT of A. I. garbage that I am wasting so much time doing so. I get a bit aggravated being reminded by all of the conservative 'social influencers' of just how bad things are and how we've all been taken for a ride, etc., etc., etc.

I keep saying I'm going to unplug and start reading the top 100 books that have ever been written and to start listening to more music but, here I am, rambling in a post on your Substack! LOL.

I hope you get some good rest, brother. At our ages, we really need it for all the reasons!
