    I get what you're saying, it just doesn't resonate with me. Maybe because I'm an immigrant here. All I see is a massive fire and we can't put it out because it's normal for things to be on fire, and we wouldn't want to upset anyone.

    Okay yes, 40% is a large proportion of the electorate, but they held a referendum that 48.11% rejected and still treated it like a divine mandate, even though it was non-binding. One side's preference is consistently treated with more reverence in this.

    No joke my wife did this to our baby when he was sick. Used one of those straw gizmos that are supposed to make it safe, but it didn't filter out whatever he had, and she spent like half a year coughing.

    Monumental distraction.

    Democrats will have to wield the power of the purse to combat this administration. Conveniently, it's the only language he listens in.

    It does seem, in this moment, as if the MAGA movement has run its course. If their faltering grip on power is not met with accountability and healing, they will return all the sooner.

    I was amusing myself mildly while making tea, doing random freestyle songs, as you do. Came up with a couple lines that really grabbed me, started writing more. I'm kind of hitting a wall though. Anything you'd add to this? Hope this kind of question is acceptable.

    Here's what I've got so far:

    The beauty of this world is a curse to smite your heart

    A fractal hypersigil undetectable in part

    Though you may understand it as a timelike hologram

    The wisdom of the ancients predates the voice of Man

    The truth is never ugly, no news is never bad

    And when you're dead and gone it'll be the best you've ever had

    Sunburned by the darkness at the gods' own twilight

    You'll thrash in frozen ecstasy when the stars are right

    Try to imagine this as a Lovecraftian lounge song, slow and comfortable in tone. It's basically like if Richard Cheese covered a chant from the Necronomicon. Would love to workshop this with any randos who want to join in, if it grabs you too. Also open to punch-ups on the lines I've already written. If we can get it to a good place, I might upload a demo.
