Stop Being Scared

This is the "water landing" - that cutesy euphemism the cabin crew safety lady uses so we don't go totally berserk thinking about crashing into the sea.

The plane is filling with water. We need to stop sitting there crying about it, and start getting ourselves organized and helping each other survive this shit.

Bob Cesca, with Jody Hamilton and David Ferguson:



The saving grace - if there is one - is that Cult45 uses their bully pulpit to make grandiose threats that aren't really doable. But they do that shit because the rubes won't stop to think about what a stoopid idea it is - they'll just go along with it, and then slide right into Sullen Mopey Teenager Mode when they learn that it's not allowed under the law.



One thing: when a Democrat is making a good case against the Daddy State assholes, we have to resist the urge to bitch about their style.

Nobody gets more frustrated than I do when the Dems come off as less that assertive, but I'm learning that we need to focus on more fully supporting them when they're standing up and trashing the Repubs.

And / Or / But remember:

  1. There
  2. are
  3. no
  4. simple
  5. 10-word
  6. explanations
  7. for
  8. the
  9. important
  10. stuff.
