Tim Walz: "It's not a 'woke policy' to provide food for children to get breakfast and lunch, and we get better outcomes from that. They defined things on their terms that weren't true ... we got timid."

The Tiny Me in OSHA-approved Hi-Vis Gear Who lives in my brain and pulls all the levers: Boss, itโ€™s the fascism. Youโ€™re completely gunked up with cortisol due to the fact that your entire daily life is now underscored with a haunting awareness of the rapid erosion of your rights, dignity, and any and all social safety nets, and youโ€™re also bearing witness to the most vulnerable people immediately being persecuted. This creates a natural stress response that basically means youโ€™re going to continue having memory and organizational problems, as well as emotional imbalances.

Me: BUT I HAVE A BULLET JOURNAL AND I MEDITATE NOW.

direct evidence: the EPCOT Overhaul. A few bright spots but it generally looks like a corporate plaza. Universal shows us what it _could_ have been had Disney really given a damn. (I'm not discounting great additions like Guardians (wrong park) or Moana (wrong park))

Does โ€œGolden Ageโ€ refer to a time when planes keep crashing, eggs cost $10โ€“15 a dozen, the U.S. is being booed and protested by all our allies, workers are losing their jobs, and Americansโ€™ personal data is being rummaged through by unelected oligarchs and their strange crew of 20-something incels?
