| I guess I am completely out of touch. I always thought the President was supposed to set a good example of morals to emulate. Now we have a rapist, felon, and a person who cheated on his wife with a porn star and a leader who thinks it's OK to grab a woman by the puxxy. According to him they love i... |

| To be fair, not everyone has survived. The Trump admin's disastrous handling of COVID caused lots of deaths, and the overturning of Roe v Wade has led to many women dying from preventable deaths. We made it here, but we are privileged to have done so. We shouldn't treat the second Trump term like th... |

| ^^Ah, yes. Static electricity is awful. I've been noticing it some days more than others. Since we have an extended period of temperatures in the 30s starting I think I'll be dealing with it again soon. Saw a little snow in Connecticut as I was doing the last lawn mowing of the year! Ran the engine ... |

My life over the past several years has seen a major positive breakthrough and lots of change. It'd be hard for me to properly convey all of that.
The breakthroughs I'm looking for right now, though are: A job, an apartment of my own, deciding on my career, and finding a partner. |

My family and pets (I consider them part of the family, of course, but had to note them separately)
To live in Connecticut instead of the red state I lived in previously
My health (I've had some scares and am glad that everything has turned out fine) |

| Got some light snow (no accumulation) today in central-western CT. It was bizarre because it was like 43 degrees! Like all day yesterday it was in the 30s and rained, but today it's in the 40s and snowed? I understand some details about meteorology (one could say it was hyperfocus of mine as a child... |

| Hello, I'm an ex-Okie. I was born and raised there and only just recently made my escape. It's a sad place, Oklahoma. I lived near Tulsa in a nice suburb. It's a suburb that has grown rapidly since I was a child. It's practically unrecognizable now, but not in a bad way (well... depends on your tast... |

| Got barely a dusting of snow here in western Connecticut. Still neat, though, as I didn't expect any accumulations at all. The temperatures remained above freezing. |

Thus they flock together. Who else could be depraved enough to work in an administration under a confirmed rapist? ... |

A predator who boasted about going into dressing rooms at pageants to look at the girls naked is the president-elect. Not only that, but this predator is someone that Johnson vehemently supports.
There is no genuine desire to protect women or children here. Absolutely none. |

So I'm seeing that Gaetz dropped out of consideration.
I'm glad to see one less pedophile to be in Trump's admin. But the president himself is a sex predator himself and that's completely unforgivable. |

| Donald Trump is a sex predator. He has been found civilly-liable for rape, meaning it was confirmed with evidence in court. In addition, he has tons more allegations against him, and he himself has gleefully boasted about sexually assaulting women because his fame/power allowed to get away with it i... |

| I hope that my state/New England as a whole will do the same. In fact, I would like New England to just split off to become its own country, but I know that isn't happening. Nevertheless, we are a region that feels pretty independent, so I hope we can resist the Christofascists' awful laws. |
