    I’m calm. I’m also very happy for the American people. They deserve a bit of peace and quiet after all the bullshit spews that constantly seem to go on forever, including yours. Be happy for them. Take the little wins and dance in the sun.

      Trump gave me high blood pressure and I have to take pills now. I’m not joking. This thing has been so stressful for me over the past two years that I developed cardiovascular issues, I got the results today. I know the nightmare is not over, but at least now I feel like maybe at some point we’ll wake up from it and have a few beers and laugh about the whole thing and go on living and try to fix ourselves and our planet together.

      Tonight I dream.

      They are too close to invading me and my allies to give them peace and quiet. They are dangerous. Now is not the time for rest.
