Great Worry. Great Uncertainty. Vote Blue.

We are pulling our horns in a bit. Chilling. Turning to Art, Poetry, Literature, Music. Taking care and being careful. The Arts have always been a refuge and an inspirer. The best of Humanity can be found in the Humanities. 

Tuning out the madness, and the media frenzy. Sure, my favorite President Old Honest Joe is old. No shit, Sherlock. But he is also a great President. Our best Hope of keeping our Democracy healthy & thriving. 

Smarter people than I are predicting dire consequences if we let the blathering Fascist heading up the Republican Party win this upcoming election. Something I just can't stomach or entertain. Trump = Vomit-Inducing. What are the stakes?

Timothy Snyder, Historian & Author of "On Tyranny," - Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century kind of lays it out simply and cogently. Yeah, "hair on fire," "pants on fire," WTF.  

Great worry. Great uncertainty. That goes with being a Wide-Awake Citizen of the Globe.Yikes!
