We Can't Get Much Crazier. Right?

Here we go again.

California hasn't subjected itself to enough misery with horrible wildfires, the worst governor in US history, drug addicts everywhere, and some kind of budget deficit in the trillions.

Nope, that wasn't enough. L.A. decided this week that ICE coming in to scoop up illegals was "scaring" the illegals it was trying to scoop, so naturally, a full-blown anarchy gathering seemed like the answer. 

I think all sane people can agree that the left is missing some kind of ability to read the room. They actually think that the average Joe in the midwest is going to see insane people throwing heavy cement blocks and commercial fireworks onto cop cars on the freeway, and think, 'That's Trump's fault for having the National Guard on standby."

What?

I lived in SoCal for quite a few years. It was beautiful then. I feel bad for anyone who owns a home there now, between fleeing insurance companies and crazy people all around you. Property values must be plummeting big-time.

Is California the canary in the coalmine for America? 

Time will tell.

PS as the day wears on, word comes that Newsom is suing Trump and Trump wants to arrest Newsom. Personally, I think the latter would be toxic to fish, but there you have it.

I was just informed by a long-established dating site that "Novelist" is not acceptable as a job description.

What?

I bet you dollars to doughnuts I coulda said I was a transgender athlete, and no one woulda blinked a false eyelash. But "novelist"? Nope.

I was too annoyed to bother asking why. I'm pretty sure a company that doesn't have "writing" as a profession isn't where my true love lies. If he is even on Planet Earth, which I am starting to doubt.

I just went ahead and deleted my profile. It's not like I was going to commit to six months at their overpriced subscription rate anyway. 

So sadly, we will never know why "novelist" cannot be a job description. Maybe I should have said "Verbal accelerant." Or "prima ballerina." Actually, those are also likely too esoteric for the AI bot at _______. 

At least I get to amuse you all with this ridiculous, but 100% true, story. Maybe I can write a novel about it.
