lagilmanAnd I'm too exhausted to say it.
Discussing politics tonight with a co-worker.
Her: "Oh, well, I don't know much about X, but I'm sure it will be okay."
Me: *long stare*
She says her sister gives her the same long stare. Me, I'm thinking maybe there's a hint here she should be taking....?
History of two hundred-plus years rattling in my brain, the experience of generations that tell us "this is bad, this never works." I'm trying to find something pithy to say, something wise, and tight, but all I can think is, "and this is how America fails."
Dear World: if you are kind, remember us when you say your prayers, and send us strength for the fight.
