I am beginning to suspect that it was a bad idea to elect a violent white supremacist as President. I mean, President is a shitty job, and most Presidents are shitty people. But, at least we could have been done with the Presidents who support ripping babies away from their parents. Not since slavery was outlawed, I think.

History won’t be kind to us.

Naps are awesome and the Devil at once. Yesterday, I got home from work with about an hour before I had to go to Drinking Liberally. It was only Tuesday, but I was already tired. So nap. Rad. I didn’t set an alarm, but it wasn’t very long. Anyway, I was refreshed at DL but when I got home, I couldn’t sleep. So now I’m tired again. So should I take another nap when I get home and start the process again?

Are you excited about how we’re definitely going to solve nuclear weapons on the Korean Peninsula this afternoon? I mean sure, there’s a tiny little bitty chance that nothing happens. Or that something happens that makes things worse.

A surprisingly good unexpected joy in Seattle comes when you pick up a Lime Bike off the ground. Strangers will thank you. When there are several bikes, other people will often help. It’s great. There are a few seconds of community and then back to whatever we were doing. I know, it’s free labor for a private company, but still, can’t beat it.

I’m looking forward to the employment numbers this morning. I may have been briefed on them yesterday, but today I’ll really delve deeper. I’ll be sure to keep Tweeting if I find something interesting.

Prime rate held steady at 79.2%. That’s a number.

They slightly revised the April numbers too. Did you know they could do that?

So Ambien got Rosanne fired?

I blame Ambien for America’s inability to apologize.

Ambien made slavery and Jim Crow.

Ambien fucked up all that money.

Jesus Christ on the Cross, did Ambien make conservatives forgot that they pretend to be about personal responsibility?
