Typical is a concept I am no longer comfortable with. I read the weather report, and the air is polluted with the by-products of forest fires. A presidential candidate promises that if he is elected, we’ll never have to vote again. And it’s getting harder and harder to get to see a medical practitioner.

Terrible that this is our new ‘typical’.
‘nightmare’ being the key word here.
Mine too. I try to find a break from it and then more weird shit happens.

I aqm beginning to understand some of the attitudes that my parents had after living through the Depression and WWII.
Me too.
