Even though being away for a week has done wonders for my level of cope in general, and despite, or perhaps because of, having had a fantastic evening and a good night's sleep, my brain decided to be painfully anxious this morning. Anxious about Danae, anxious about my boyfriend, anxious about work, anxious about therapy this afternoon, anxious about being anxious...

Stupid brain. I'm feeling mostly better now. Brain chemicals are so weird.

A few of us were talking about gender last night and characterized it as a poorly implemented design feature. "Who coded this all this crap? It makes no sense!"

In the same speech wherein Trump stated that noise from wind turbines causes cancer, he worried aloud that "Someone’s gonna leak this whole damn speech to the media."

The speech was live on C-Span.

The role of President has been characterized as 'consoler-in-chief'; Trump is our national crazy-paranoid-uncle-in-chief. Sadly, unlike your actual conspiracy-theory-addled family member, you can't just nod, smile, and choose not to engage.

The hell of it, though, is that it just doesn't matter what he says. He's just a figurehead for conservative policy at this point. He could be a potted plant.
