MAGAts and treading water


If ever there was an illustration of the core integrity and quality of character of MAGAts, it was on display after Trump’s guilty verdict was read. The MAGAts waiting outside the courthouse exploded with anger, screaming profanities and threats.


Trump was on Fox and Friends. Here’s some of the things he said:


He says he never said ‘lock her up’.

He supports climate change because it means a little more beachfront property.

He will appoint an Attorney General who will go after Americans who don’t support him.

He will fire America’s military generals and replace them with MAGA loyalists.

He said Americans who don’t support him are the enemy and more dangerous than Putin.

He said Americans who don’t support him are evil and he wants to seek revenge on them by sending the DOJ after them.

He said China and Russia aren’t the problem, people in America who don’t support him are the problem.

He said there will be a depression like in 1929 if he loses.

He said he will immediately end the Department of Education if he wins.

So, me? Yesterday was my last day to take the blood thinner before my afib ablation on Tuesday. Also the last cocktail I will have before the procedure. Drinking plenty of water to be well hydrated. Not going out in the heat and humidity and getting overheated and overtired before the procedure even though the wild muscadine grape is taking over the other section of fence on the other side of the driveway in front of the shop yard. My potatoes are probably rotting in the big tubs for the same reason. The dog is not getting any walks for the same reason. Doing my yoga in the mornings. 


Went to SHARE last Thursday and we were 5 volunteers short in the food section and had to draw two people from the front who interview clients and they were already short one volunteer. So, was it a slow day because we were so shorthanded? Fuck, no. One of the busiest days. Don’t know the final tally but I’m pretty sure we filled close to 40 food requests. My morning at SHARE doesn’t usually tire me out but last Thursday did. I even took a rare short nap in the afternoon.


I did something I very rarely do yesterday. I had started a new book and was about 50 or so pages in and I took it back to the library. I didn’t like the writing style and I really didn’t like the main character. I decided I wasn’t gong to torture myself on the off chance it would get better and checked out two other books.


Since I’m a little preoccupied and not really engaging with the world right now, here’s some random photos.
