gm, The only thing more depressing than reading or thinking about Trump is seeing folks on Mastodon complaining about Trump. Because each complaint post is time lost towards the cure for this mess we're, which is organizing. Don't get me wrong, these Mastodon posts I see

gm, Yes, last night's debate was hard to watch. I get it, our country is hurting. Ralph Nader has been pointing this out for years. Thomas Frank wrote a great book about it. For too long, I have followed and paid for Twitter accounts who call themselves journalists.
