150th day sober. I practiced last night and it went OK. However on the exercises in the Rubank, my "OK" now is what I used to call pretty good.
I woke up today at 3:30 and made the mistake of turning on the radio. It seems the Republicans have the option of not extending the debt limit - and Republicans have been spending like crazy whenever they can because tax-and-spend is the Republican way - and if they do so, the US will default on its debts for the first time in its history and send the US into the Mother Of All Economic Crises.
This is exactly the kind of thing the Republican Party, now the Trump Party, would want to do. To think I'm old enough to remember when they were considered a viable party. That ended with Bush II, and it went full retard when they got behind Low-Budget Orange Hitler. He has a perfect record of turning everything it touches to shit.
So how it's the party of white nationalism (look at videos of the ruins of German cities after WWII to see how well that went the last time) and they want a civil war for the same reason Hitler's followers did: because they think they'll live happily ever after in some kind of inbred Paradise. They were not able to destroy the US with their January 6 coup, so here's another way they can try. We'll just have to see.
