Greetings Malicitos! I hope y'all are doing alright this Saturday evening.
Beautiful night for a cocktail and cigar, so I have a simple Sazerac and a Rocky Patel Vintage 1990. Couldn't come up with anything else fancy, so the Sazerac with its little bit of sugar, bitters, and glass rinse of absinthe to a nice rye does the trick. Goes well with the cigar.
That hurricane really seemed to mess places up. Whole lot of flooding in the western part of the state, lot of power outages. We got the tornado warning and a hefty amount of rain in the AM, but by afternoon it was fine. Hopefully everyone made it through alright.
I don't know how much more screwed up this election season can get. Yeah, Don Tardo could get ghosted, which isn't out of the realm of possibilities, and someone could bomb DC, but really neither of those is surprising anymore. Maybe The Pig gets off'd and they put Jill in. That'd be messed up. Everything is just so many shades of bizarre that Harambe coming back as the messiah would barely raise an eyebrow.
I did have a thought though, when it comes to what is being touted by the Right as bogus polling. The polls show Herr Hairpiece either a little behind or even with Hamala. What if it is a blowout and Orangeman wins majorly. The Cathedral now has an opportunity to claim The Right stole the election by manipulating the voter rolls, as many red states have been purging illegals or dead people, so with such a disparity in polls vs. results, they could make an argument that the NY liberal only won because he cheated. As I said, feel like anythings possible.
I pray y'all are okay. With the shittyness in the Middle East, I worry for past regulars from the region and our cute little Iranian spook. The warhawks are just itching for more carnage and I fear no one has the balls to tell them "no" until it's too late.
I said it was going to get bumpy and they ain't done yet.

I have a feeling I just annoy everyone here. Think I'm gonna take a break from locals for a bit. I'm not autisticly "anarchist" enough for many here I feel.
Y'all enjoy my absence! I'll go be politically homeless elsewhere. 🙃
I have returned, maybe you didn't know I even left. My attempt to leave all the socials won't work. I have left twitter and don't miss it. Without Locals I found myself on Facebook more, partly for family posts and then exploring the Orthodox Christian communities. Just because it says Orthodox doesn't mean it's any different than any other side of Facebook. It's still a dumpster fire.
Anyway, it also seems we are reliving some version of 2020. Even certain people in my IRL are being overly sensitive. I missed this place, most of all the twisted sense of humor we all seem to have. So thank you @malice for creating a space that seems to be the only part of the world that makes sense!
