Chaos is seeping in. Don't be surprised if it gets worse.
I don’t like to make predictions. At the same time I try not to be surprised when weird things happen.
These are the things I’m on the lookout for through the end of the year, hope to God none of it happens:
•More and increasingly desperate attempts on DJT’s life
•Replacement of Biden on the Dem ticket one way or another, including death by natural or unnatural causes
•Large scale, high casualty attacks on soft targets or the RNC/DNC
•Disorder/riots like we saw in 2020, possibly on a larger scale.
•Escalation of the Ukraine/Russia war embroiling NATO and causing WWIII
•plenty more bad stuff
All these things are possible. I do not know how likely they are.
Don’t pretend you know what’s going to happen, just try not to be surprised by anything.
*Don’t be a sucker.*
Please pull away when you see hateful rhetoric from anyone, right or left.
You’ve already survived a Trump administration.
You’ve survived most of a Biden administration.
Another 4 years of either one is not the inevitable end of our country. Quit it.
Anybody who tells you differently is attempting to manipulate you.
*Don’t be a sucker.*
We are poorly served by our leaders. Your duty is to your neighbors.
You do not owe any politician your loyalty. They serve their donors first, voters maybe later (if they think of it.)
If things get crazy in your neighborhood, your Senators won’t be showing up or even sending help.
You are going to have to look out for your neighbors, and they are going to have to look out for you. Even if they have the other guy’s sign in their yard. Get used to that idea now, before things get bad. If things stay calm what have you lost?
If you haven’t already, understand you need to take an interest in your neighbors’ well-being. If you haven’t made this explicitly true about yourself, do it now. Say it:
I have an active interest in my neighbors’ well-being.
Now go and make it true.
I’ll stop telling you what to do now. Thanks for putting up with me.
I love you.
