Tomorrow morning at 4:21, the Winter Solstice occurs. [FN1] Pagans celebrate the lengthening of the days by stripping buck naked, painting themselves blue and dancing in the moonlight. [FN2] From a different perspective: in a month, The Constitution could die. [FN3] 1/13

There are several reasons why trump should not be allowed to take the oath. [FN4] A reason I’ve neglected: by the time trump left office in 2021, > 400K ppl in US had died from COVID. [FN5] On 12/19 I re-posted a meme. [FN6] 2/13

Most ppl who commented/replied saw the dark humor in the meme, but to one of the few who did not, I wrote “- - yourself, Adam.” I should not have written a reply that implies that person might experience pleasure. Another reply: “They lied” joined w/items [FN7] & a 3/13

question asked/answered: “Do you know who doesn’t have any incentives to lie? The Mothers.” In college debate, responses to mindless assertions w/o cites to authority are:
1) Line-by-line refutation of each pathogen. [FN8] It’s called a “time suck.” The other: 4/13

2) Mothers have enormous incentives to lie. The person should read about King Solomon, two mothers & a baby. [FN9] Or, if the person wants to look at non-fiction, moms lie to get money to raise their kids. [FN10] Hurry to express yourself! Freedom ends 1/20/25. 5/13

Speaking of lassitude, ignorance & cowardice, Micah Beckwith, Indiana’s own Christofascist/Lt Gov-elect is scheduled to be at Westfield High School (in Hamilton County) this afternoon. Beckwith poses a risk to others for various reasons. I worry about guns. In Indiana: 6/13

Guns are not allowed on school property. [FN11] Beckwith is clueless about The Constitution, favors keeping books out of reach, but loves that hard metal thing in his pants. It’s only 3 inches long, (that’s why they call it a “snub-nose”) but is lethal. 7/13

A public school is no place for firearms or idiots. People should be careful today. Beckwith’s an idiot who’s willing to use kids as props in her/his quest for power. Meantime, I need to buy blue paint. btw follow Cassie Jackson on Facebook! 8/13

FN2. At least that was what I was told long ago. I’ve always had fun w/that aspect of paganism.
FN3. On 01/20/25, the next President of the United States is supposed to be sworn into office. 9/13

Footnotes:
FN4. Reasons include: 1) trump’s threat of dictatorship; 2) adoption of Project 2025 as a new charter w/o compliance w/Art. 5; 3) trump, under Amend XIV, sec 3 is disqualified from any office (re: Jan 6); 4) trump was complicity in Russia’s cyber invasion of the U.S. 10/13
