I'm probably weird but oatmeal raisin cookies are dank and I would pick them over chocolate chips cookies 90 percent of the time.

I get that it is honestly hard to read stuff you just don't connect with or find interesting on some level. I absolutely loved the odyssey and huck finn. I can completely understand people not getting on board with Shakespeare especially when you're younger.

I've definitely gone back in red some of the really popular books back when I was in high school because I can appreciate them more now. However, I still read a ton of fantasy novels and stuff like that which I find more interesting then most things I read back then.

I do have hope because it's hard to live without it. I'm probably a little jaded because I live in a predominantly red area. I'll just keep voting and doing my best to get others to vote as well. Also planning on going to some school board meetings soon if it works with my schedule.

Yes I have offspring

I hope people remember what it was like and what was done under that president and what that party has done lately. I worry people have either stop paying attention or have grown apathetic. That's what will lead to trump again because we have to come out in large numbers to counteract all the Tom foolery they're going to be up to.

I hope you are right and this time we can get a least some justice for all the damage and crimes he has done.

I still do that myself I'll read a whole page and then realize I have zoned out the entire time and remember nothing. Usually that happens when I'm not as invested in the material. I'm current reading the wheel of times series and am enjoying it. However it has it's boring or just overly detailed areas that I find myself zoning out more in.

I'm not throwing in the towel I'm just looking at the facts of what happens to rich white men in this country. He has found a way out of everything. People have been saying he's goong to prison since 2016. They don't call him Teflon don for nothing. I hope to see him pay for his crimes but I think it's more likely he cheats to become president again and then it will all just go away. He also has the backing of the supreme Court and the Dems have a really hard time holding seats in Congress because we aren't playing a fair game.

Oh I am far from apathetic. I am fucking pissed off and nothing will stop me from getting to the voting booth along with my SO. However, I am not optimistic for the USA or the world at this point. I hope I am wrong but as far as I can tell we are headed in the wrong direction all over the globe. Millions and millions of people are turning towards authoritarian governments. You have a very very loud minority in our country that wants to install a christofascist government and Im pretty sure they aren't going anywhere and will do anything for power.

You are correct I was mostly adding that because that aids in their ability to steal power away from the majority. I guess I could have just said cheating as that is a good blanket term for what they do.

Russia is just going to keep going the West has proven it self as weak and full of fear. All Russian had Todo was wait and use propaganda campaigns all over the Internet. Soon Trump will be president again and Putin will get everything he wants.

I'm calling it right now. We missed our chance to kick him out of office we are going to miss our chance to see him answer for his crimes. He will be elected president through cheating, gerrymandering, and anything they can try. After that we will only have elections as a facade and we will be ruled by a right wing oligarchy. Probably will resemble Russia in the most part. Ukraine will be given to Russia and the us will help make that happen. Israel will get even bolder because the Christian right want to bring on the apocalypse. A new world order will be born with China and Russia at the front. This made possible because they will succeeded in neutering the us by helping install a useful idiot in trump and all the other Republicans that are on the pay roll. Buckle up because shit is about the get even worse. We haven't even started on how right wing governments are absolutely terrible with dealing with any outside threat because they are so fucking corrupt. Climate change is going to devistste the entire plant and these right wing ass holes will only make it worse and worse until it's way past redeemable. The wars that are going to start over territory and resources will be like no conflict this plant has ever seen.

Oh as a teenager reading those books I definitely didn't enjoy them as much as I do now as an adult. As an adult I 100 percent enjoy reading more compared to my younger years but I still found some of those story's very compelling.

ADHD can be a pain in the ass especially when you are being forced to perform in an environment that is basically your worst enemy. I don't think standardized testing shows who's smart and who isn't. It shows who's better at memorization and concentration maybe. I also hated word counts as well and that why I also liked scientific writing better because it's to the point and cuts out all the fluff. I love reading the fluff now but not into writing it myself.

Oh okay I didn't realize all I had Todo was overthrow a government with the most powerful military in the world and just aspire a little harder.

Thanks so much for that insightful comment I should be able to get this all done by Wednesday. Thanks for the bullet proof plan.

I vote in the primaries, I vote in every election, I try my best to get everybody around me to vote as well. I'm trying to work within the system so we can try to change it for the better while we still can.
