Kicking off the Week

We've likened gout to a crazy ex-girlfriend. Gout isn't your crazy ex-girlfriend, gout is your crazy ex-girlfriend and all of her friends getting together, stalking you on line, spreading rumors, using a Ouija board, casting a hex. We're getting pins and needles now. We have an appointment today. We are wondering if this isn't the early onset of something doctors have been warning us about for 25 years.

[People, he goes from fuck doctors, what do they know? to, I'm gonna die, really easily. This is drama and fatalism. Don't fall for it -Ed].

When William was in Egypt's land...let my William go....

[See?-Ed]

Relief here in Casa de Stroock as Oracle has purchased Tik Tok.

Andy Ngo reports on riots in Lancaster, PA, which is uncomfortably close to us. He shows us some very satisfying moments*, we suggest clicking through. Antifa and BLM are in Portland, Minneapolis, Kenosha, Lancaster....Antifa and BLM are everywhere. There will be mass violence when Trump is reelected. Angkor plans. Prepare accordingly.

We saw a Biden ad on TV last night. It was...okaaaaaay? By the Many Faced God, we swear to reader(s) we haven't seen a Biden flag, sign, hat....not so much as a Biden bumper sticker. Here. In New Jersey. There were big Trump rallies in New Jersey over the weekend. Enthusiasm Gap much? We love that the governor of Nevada cancelled Trump's rallies and Trump said, Mmmmmmm-no, I'm coming anyway.

We'll finally get our Word Docs from our dead computer today. We'd like to spend the rest of the month reading through The Great Nuclear War of 1975 and determining what must be done the rest of the year. Immediate post-strike vignettes come to mind. We'll need a scene, maybe in 1980, showing surviving areas growing into very important cities. These include Bethlehem, Chattanooga, Evansville...ideas welcome. Maybe a chapter where various governments discuss sending and organizing help?

*Rubber bullet to the nuts. More please.

  2. Didn't know that. Maybe. If Bethlehem survives maybe Birmingham could too. Near miss? That'd give us some good story background.
