The Opposite Of Love Is Not Hate, It’s Indifference. The Opposite Of Art Is Not Ugliness, It’s Indifference.

To describe Trump's actions as “potential conflicts of interest” misses the point. A “potential conflict of interest” sounds like an unfortunate situation in which it’s possible that Trump might choose his own personal interest over the nation’s. Stated this way, the problem is the conflict. But Trump isn’t conflicted. He repeatedly chooses his (and his family’s) interests over the nation’s. He is using the authority and trappings of the presidency of the United States to make money for himself and his family. And in his second term, this corruption is more flagrant than it was in the first. I had assumed that Trump’s undoing would be his unquenchable thirst for power. It may yet be, but I’m beginning to think his insatiable greed will do him in. America’s Grifter-in-Chief knows no bounds.

Connect the dots.

The Prince of Lies.

There are ample reasons for despair, but Trump’s second term is exposing a reality that has been hidden from most Americans: the raw, stinking power of the American oligarchy. And its use of obscene wealth to gain this power. My hope is founded on Americans seeing and responding to this reality.

FRIENDLY FUCKIN’ REMINDER: WHAT WE CALL “THE TONY AWARDS” WAS ORIGINALLY “THE ANTOINETTE PERRY AWARD FOR EXCELLENCE IN THEATRE”, NAMED AFTER THE CO-FOUNDER AND CHAIRWOMAN OF THE AMERICAN THEATRE WING.

THE AWARDS FOR ACTRESSES WERE ORIGINALLY SILVER COMPACTS, BUT SOMEONE DECIDED THIS WAS TOO EFFEMINATE AND SLAPPED THE COMPACT’S DESIGN IN THE MIDDLE OF OUR MODERN AWARD- THAT SPINNY SILVER MEDALLION WAS ORIGINALLY USED FOR CHECKING LIPSTICK.

ANOTHER REMINDER: I KNEW NONE OF THIS UNTIL TODAY. DON’T TOLERATE FEMALE ERASURE.

REMEMBER HER NAME.

ANTOINETTE FUCKING PERRY.
