 Normally I read the news after I have made my daily post. Not today. There was too much at stake and I need this entry to be as accurate as possible. Yesterday we saw a coup attempt in our country. Domestic terrorists stormed the Capitol, destroyed property, and attempted to overthrow the democratic process of the US. Any headline that isn't that blatant is a lie. This was a coup attempt plain and simple. Four people are dead as of this morning. This was a disgusting shameful act egged on and supported by a delusional tin pot dictator. He should be removed from office and held for treason. It was a shameful 14 hours of this country's already tarnished reputation. I am embarrassed to be living in a country that would allow this type of person to remain even if it is only 2 weeks. We were the laughing stock of the entire world yesterday. Adjustment Day had arrived. 

As of 4am EST, the elected officials had finished their job with many of the republicans finally backing down and not trying to thwart the process. We finally have a new leader. While he won't be the savior we all are hoping for, he sure as hell won't be what we've had for the last four years - a lying, thieving, manipulator. May all of his supporters who engaged in treason yesterday get what they deserve. Be that judicially or through the power of karma. I have stated it before and will emphatically state it now: if you are one of the people who directly or indirectly allowed this clown to take office 4 years ago or seem to think he continues to belong in office, never, ever, speak to me again. You are part of the problem. May god have mercy on your soul. Because I sure as fuck don't. 

In better news, GA came through. We would like to all say hello to Senate MINORITY leader Palpatine. Saw a great joke yesterday; a Jew and a black guy walk into the senate and tell Mitch to sit the fuck down. Preach. Maybe now things can get accomplished. Step one, rejoin the Paris accord. Step two, speed up vaccines. Step 3, get all the money. No wait. That's underpants gnomes. 

I went to the eye doctor yesterday. All is good. .25 change to my script which is not unexpected. Right what I figured it would to be. Eye health is good. 

Came home, recorded material for B, had meeting with my boss, watched the coup. Ever wonder why people my age are afraid to turn off the tv? We started with Kennedy getting his head blown off and we've been afraid to turn it off ever since. Yesterday was proof in the pudding. I will say Twitter at least shut off his account for 12 hours and is threatening a permanent ban. Zuckerberg has his head too far up either his own ass or Cheeto's ass to do the same. Old Vlad was probably having a laugh last night. 

I played more FC5 last night. Talk about an appropriate game for the moment. I have never enjoyed taking out bad guys as much as I did last night. 

Two days of classes remaining. Then it's the weekend. Groceries on Saturday unfortunately. But I will take a nice nap for sure.
