I mean, what else is there to say? We've got the police bumping off innocent black men like it was a turkey shoot; a president who is clearly a lunatic; virus deaths now over 100,000; a near-broken economy; and an unemployment rate worse than the Great Depression. All good, of course, from a declinist point of view. But I'm impressed at the virulence of our disintegration, and the impotence of our responses. Some 'leaders' we've got, eh? And of course, some citizens. We need to rename the country Doofus World.
Let me repeat my plans for my epitaph:
I KEPT TELLING THEM, BUT DID THEY LISTEN? NO!
Well, anyway, laissez les bon temps rouler and all that.
