Here's the thing...this stuff is stressful.

Here's the thing...this stuff is stressful.

Every day, it's something else. No day is "calm". NO DAY is calm.

And even though we had a 4 year "reprieve" of sorts with POTUS Biden, Trump was constantly yapping even while Biden was president.

So it's basically been 10 years of daily stress.

This slowly weighs on your mind and body.

Can't go 5 ****ing minutes without some horrid horseshit happening in this country.

For 10 ****ing years.

And those that are paying attention are stressed as hell...every ****ing day.

So what do we do?

Not pay attention and be blissfully unaware like a large percentage of the people in this country? Maybe.

But this is not a viable solution for those who care about those around them.

So, another solution is to fight in any way that we can...which we do.

But this is stressful in itself.

Stress destroys your mind and body. IT'S BEEN 10 YEARS.

A study on the effects of this stress would be pretty much impossible to perform. There are too many variables.

But the increase in excess deaths is a good indicator that things are sideways. A lot of these excess deaths are due to Covid (and Trump's lack of response). I would be interested in knowing how many of these excess deaths are due to the stress that our government imposes on us.

Intuitively, it's not an insignificant number.

All of this is due to:

1) One major asshole's fragile ego and lust for power

2) What that one asshole unleashed.

**** Trump with a molten lava enema.

Long-Winded blah blah blah 🙄

The solutions are simple:

* Stop feeding on Prog crap from MesSNBC and MSM outlets.

* Admit your social and political views do not and cannot work.

5¢ Please

Learn to laugh and don't take every utterance that President Trump makes seriously. According to the latest phrase du jour: go touch some grass. Go find a hobby rather than obsessing with politics.

Unplug from DUmmyland, toss the keyboard, skip the weed and gather up this month's SSDI, use it to buy yourself a life.

Easy answer...Eath shit and die.

And even though we had a 4 year "reprieve" of sorts with POTUS Biden

I don't look at president autopen's 4 years as a reprieve, I see it as we were all on a trans-Pacific airline flight while the cockpit crew was in a coma and it's just by the grace of God that the autopilot was functioning and maintaining minimum control, but unable to avoid major areas of severe weather because there was nobody mentally alert in the cockpit to deviate around troubling meteorological areas.

Stop. Watching. So. Much. News.

Maybe stop watching the news altogether.

Their business model is to keep you addicted by playing to your fears and rage.

[DUmpDiver]

So what do we do?

Extra Strength TYLENOL Rapid Release Gels
2 gelcaps every 6 hours while symptoms last
Not to exceed 6 gelcaps in 24 hours, unless directed by a doctor

All of this is due to:

1) One major asshole's fragile ego and lust for power

2) What that one asshole unleashed.

3) He won both the EC and popular vote

Trump-Haters tried to trigger their fantasy of Trump's "fragile ego" during Trump's first term with the "Baby Trump" balloon. How well did that work?

[FlippyDoo]

Boo-hoo to the posting DUmmie. For years, I offered pro-bono fictional spirit-guiding services to those nut jobs. I tried with all my heart to help them, but none of them were willing to listen. Their heads were like wind tunnels with any sound advice or instruction traveling unimpeded in one ear and out the other. Too bad that the wind wasn't strong enough to blow away the sticky notes of crazy instructions submitted by their DemonRat overlord masters.

Hey, you've already done your part.

Now Uncle Ralphie will give you how he "copes". I willingly receive several e-mail blasts from the NY Slimes and Washington Compost daily. During breaks at work, I'll glance through them and just analyze how slanted, misleading, or untrue the headlines are and just get a good laugh out of them. I don't take their putrid petty "stories" seriously in the least. They're just deranged and misguided leftists.

Maybe you DUmmies should subscribe to the Townhall group of websites and do the same that I do, although from the opposite political persuasion. Although I can imagine them just getting more angry because they take politics WAY too seriously.

The resulting DU posts would be decent entertainment for us.

The resulting DU posts would be decent entertainment for us.

If they didn't suffer a massive coronary when the anger just internalizes.

Here's a prime example of a piss-poor biased NY Slimes e-mail blast just minutes ago:

A grand jury has indicted a longtime Trump target, the former F.B.I. director James Comey.
A federal grand jury in Virginia has indicted James B. Comey, the former F.B.I. director, a culmination of President Trump’s relentless effort to exact retribution for investigating his 2016 presidential campaign over possible ties to Russia, according to people familiar with the decision.

While the charges have yet to be unsealed, the people familiar with the decision said the grand jury had indicted Mr. Comey on Thursday on one count of making a false statement and one count of obstruction.

Objection, your honor! Argumentative, misleading, and irrelevant.

No link, PW protected. Just thought I'd provide this example, because rather than get angry, I just rolled my eyes and laughed.

I don't look at president autopen's 4 years as a reprieve,

Biden's term wasn't a reprieve, it was a wake-up call. The decisions made during old Joes term were the catalysts needed to energize his party's defeat. This is obvious to any person capable of thinking on his own.

[SVPete]

I've lived through 20 years of bad Presidencies - Clinton, OhBummer!, and LIEden. I was not happy with them, but I did not obsess about them during their terms.
