It was important to me because after the diagnosis, everything started making sense: all the snubs, all the laughter (directed at me), all the missed opportunities, et cetera.
I feel much better about myself for finally knowing what was "wrong" with me all my life. |

| Face the bleak truth, everyone. Trump is a cancer that never fully went into remission, and now the orange tumor is back.

It has to be the disposable diapers doing it. Yeah, nobody in their right mind would believe that, but it ma... |

So now the conservatives feel a mandate to "own teh libruls".
Big, fat, hairy deal.
Be careful what you wish for; wishes have ways of backfiring on the people making the wishes. The next four years will affect YOU just as much as they affect the rest of us. |

Only in retrospect do I now see the futility of voting for Ms. Harris, and for the reasons cited in the OP.
Had I known then what I know now, I still would not have voted for Mr. Trump, however. |
