Out into the soup

 Up at 3:30. www.purpleair.com says the air's solidly red, about 160-175 and I have to go out into that soup. 

So I had my coffee etc. and packed a few more things and went out into the soup. It was pretty nasty and I just tried to take it easy, leaving at about a quarter to 6. Everything went smoothly, and I got back here barely after 7. I dumped my organic trash in the blackberry patch, and got in for the night. 

I cooked up scrambled eggs with bell pepper, with cheese on top and did various small things and then washed my hair and shaved, and was just getting ready for a bath when Ken showed up, about an hour early. So I folded up the cardboard and put everything away, and Ken had some stuff for me to list and we also talked about various things. 

I think Ken's becoming disillusioned with Trump, and he says a lot of the right-wingers he listens to on the radio are too. I said as well as I can pick up from what little right-wing stuff I pay attention to, it's been said that "Trump shit the bed" and "The fool keeps saying the quiet parts loud". 

Of course this refers to Trump calling on "The Proud Boys", his Brownshirts in training, to wait and attack on election day or maybe keep people from voting entirely. It's sure got us on the Left riled up. It's all over the Socialist Rifle Association sub-reddit on Reddit. Lots of new Leftist gun owners and lots of training being offered too, which is great to see. 

I think the standard recommendation is to have an AR-15, a Glock, a 10/22, and a shotgun. Welp, I've got the 10/22 (got that the day after Heather Heyer was killed) and just recently added the Glock. Maybe I'll fill in the other two off of dead Fascists someday. (I really hope to be off this sinking ship before that's a worry.)
