i can't any more.

Dude, I dont' know what even to write, think or feel anymore. Mike...you would be so fucking pissed. I assume pissed enough to buy a ticket to DC and strap youself to a big ass bomb and wait for Mitch M to leave his fucking serpentnest and run up to him and pull the trigger. And the thing is: that wouldn't fix it. Sure, it would stun the snake for a minute, but these MAGA loons are all getting elected. We were, unfortunately, right. The planet is filled with too many goddamn idiots, and I am not kidding when I tell you: it's the internet's fault. Sad, really, that Humanity, resented with access for everyone to all the information decides to eat it's own shit. I mean, for fuck's sake. Oh, and your kid has decided they are a boy, and damn if they don't look just like you (but with the mother's hair, of course). I can't stop following her mom because I am so curious about how things unfold. That being said, as I was driving to work yesterday, I was overwhelmed by a wave of realization that you are still really gone. Just not ever gonna call out of the blue again. Never going to shoot me a text or a dm out of nowhere. Never gonna ask me for a favor. Never gonna call to invite me to fuck whoever it is you are currently in a destructive relationship with. It's hard sometimes to admit this, though I feel like I have gotten better about it, but you were a touchstone for me and without you, it's as if so much just never really happened. There's no one to talk to about all of it. Except Karen, and even she doesn't know all of it. I barely remember all the things that happened in Jamaica. Or the trip we took to Virgina that I have pictures of, but literally zero memories of. Getting old is so fucking odd. Not hard, really, just strange. Because the longer I live the less I remember. My mom is scaring the shit out of me mike. Last weekend while I was staying at her house, she got up in the middle of the night and was cursing god, saying "Why won't you take me?" and "I can't even die (right)" it fucking freaked me right the hell out. I do not want to go out like that man. I want to remember all the hilarity, the grit, the pain, the pleasure, as much as I can. I keep hoping that the sheer variety in my life will mean that I'm more adaptable to the whole experience than she's been, and that I will be able to roll around int he memories I have right up to the end, and then with any luck when my ticker finally calls it quits, I will see Hopey running up to me and you, Bircho, Ken, Mia and everyone else will all welcome me into the show. Sure, it will just be my brain protectively shutting me down, but lets hope it goes well. Or if it is painful, with any luck I'll see you reaching out to me to...oh hell, nope. I can't imagine I'll hallucinate you helping me...that's probably gonna be a big heap of BB. Who still, from time to time haunts my dreams. Unrequited love is a bitch.

It's all coming apart.

Mike. This bunch of white-power Christian zealots is not even pretending anymore. We are actively deporting residents from other countries who have lived and worked here for decades, students who have been protesting the invasion of Gaza, AND....AND frigging British tourists and Uber drivers who take a wrong turn on a bridge and end up in Canada because there is no turnaround, and when they re-enter they are being detained. And then yetsterday the vampire Nazi Stephen Miller announced they are "looking into" suspending hebeas corpus and...and allowing Afrikkaner "refusgees" (you know, rich, white people who exploited Apartheid and now hate the fact that they are required by law to pay taxes and share land ownership) to "seek asylum" here. I fucking cannot take this. They have undone Roe, they are purging the population, and the Supreme Court is about to also make Christianity the only religion (apparently) with any right to freely practicing. I fucking hat...

You picked a fine time to leave.

Hi Mike, So, this was a thing in the media today, and I literally have been thinking it for several weeks now, and then just when I had convinced myself that I was being paranoid...here it is: https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2020/04/trump-coronavirus-liberate-michigan-minnesota-virginia-lockdowns-tests.html?utm_campaign=nym&utm_source=fb&utm_medium=s1&fbclid=IwAR2OtZXWtwCpkrFPIWqZLXEXKGkGTicTUxXFvfK5d7sI8Fuwas39zlEGL-4 Because that's what's gonna happen now. I was joking with a neighbor (and I've said this to a couple people), but I honestly think only anyone with a passing understanding of anarchist theory/punk rock would appreciate it: I really did not expect anarchy to unleash itself like this. But there you go. The economy is plunging, the State/Corporate Overlord is having to pay us to stay alive because they need the labor to stay in their rich, privileged bubble. I feel like they might have misjudged the immediacy of the internet though, and to have basi...

Burn it down.

Honestly man, I don't even know what to say anymore. There's the part where I want to say that I have never, ever felt as physically horrible as I do currently. I dunno if it's the covid, the covid vax, general lack of taking care of myself, the steady march of time on my physical being matched by the psychic degredation that the entire world is experiencing or what, but damn, I am not digging anything right now. Except for the puggle of course, but dogs have always been the only reason to keep going to be honest. So, the grifting blowhard ex-president looks to be getting actually indicted, but honestly, to what end? I have literally given up any hope of Americans ever being capable of critical thinking on any sort of useful level. I suppose all the states have always passed (or not struck down, in the case of the wannabe confederate lunkheads) bullshit civil rights squashing legislation, but after Roe getting the national treatment, and weekly train wrecks that point direc...
