I've thought up a hundred different LJ posts the last three weeks, but haven't been able to make myself actually sit down and type anything up.  I managed 15k words this NaNo, almost all written prior to November 9th.  Day to day, I'll find myself doing okay, then remembering that there's a black hole on the horizon, ready to swallow us all whole.  Expect to see TV watching continue to go up and up for me, as I retreat into the warm comfort of escapism.

Nah, if I ever was a Republican, it's because I grew up in Kansas and my parents were Republicans and I never gave it much thought. I'm straight-up a screaming leftist socialist feminist liberal these days, but I can't even pinpoint when exactly that happened? Like, literally the cliché of "such and such happened so slowly I didn't even notice."

Like, I think definitely over the course of Obama's two terms, it became more and more obvious that the Republican party is a fucking monster. They lie, they project, they destroy, and when they're called on it, they literally blame Democrats. (See: Mitch McConnell blaming Obama after they overrode his veto, because he didn't do enough to explain that they are complete fucking sacks of stupid shit.) Unfortunately, I think there is an ethos that can and perhaps should exist in politics, that actually practices fiscal responsibility, but the Rs aren't it - that's just spin these days, as anymore they're the opposite of that. It's just this starve the beast thing that people keep falling for.

So, like, T***p? I can't even get into it right now, haha. I am only still up trying to buy an NES Classic on Urban Outfitters, but it doesn't look like they're going up tonight, so off I go to bed. I will definitely type something up tomorrow, if you're interested. Basically, I'm to the point where I honestly don't know which I'd prefer: that he die, that he get impeached, or that he rage-quit like the thin-skinned, tiny-handed baby he is.

(OMG, though, we really must not have talked politics in like fifteen years at least. I feel dirty that you think I'm a Republican, haha I'm not joking.)
