'tis the season
Yes, the season!
The promise in the year of election is at hand.
Three weeks from tonight, the Midterm Elections! Oh fraptuous joy!
No really. I mean that. I uh. . . honestly do.
I love the theater and the pagentry. I love the gnashing of teeth, wailing into the wind, and barking at the moon while banging on your chest!
Primate behavior, baby! Straight-up primate behavior. Like Jane fucking Goodall in the gawdamn'd freaking jungle. . . or wherever the fuck she was.
'tis truly The Greatest Show on Earth, the circus be damned.
That being said. . .
I love this story.
[Read it. Please do. Yes, I know there is the hassle of registering or watching an ad. Everybody wants to get their bread buttered.]
Admittedly the global implications are quite frightening. But give pause and take a moment to strip the story down to its bones.
It is a touching and heartwarming story about a pampered, arrogant, foolishly-stubborn boy who still desperately seeks to find glory and define his self-worth by succeeding, against all odds, Rocky style, where his father had previously failed.
We all know just how much that'll really show the Ol' Man.
This is a noble goal, unless of course you are the son of a bad man.
