Political progress, two steps forward and one step back...110 years ago:
Edmund Burke wrote, “Because half a dozen grasshoppers under a fern make the field ring with their importunate ****, whilst thousands of great cattle, reposed beneath the shadow of the British oak, chew the cud and are silent, pray do not imagine that those who make the noise are the only inhabitants of the field.”
Not a cud chewer…just a disgruntled complainer. I do agree with @VegasFrank (God help me 🙄) that votes don’t matter (more so in present times) due to electoral votes per states. However, I will continue to exercise my right to vote. My reason for voting, primarily, is it gives me solace knowing I voted and therefore can b/tch about my CIC, current state of the country and anything else my grumpy ass chooses. No vote = lose your right to b/tch. #mementomori #mementovivere.

When people don't use punctuation when texting. A period notes the end of the message. If it's a question, put a damned ? at the end. Is that too much to ask for?
