One More Request

[dewline]

Can I please just grow old and die in a small-l liberal democracy? That's a thing I still want. I don't apologise for wanting this, and if someone rigs up a "Monkey's Paw" punishment for me in reply, I am SO gonna haunt their sorry hindquarters forever.

Right? Like, I want more obviously and I think we could do so much better but also I feel like I'm going to die in a scorched fascist-run wasteland choking my last breaths into a respirator and it's going to be so miserable.

I hear you, Sabs.

I figure, I'm 60, if I'm lucky I'll be dead before it's truly a burning wasteland. But the republicans are doing their best to turn the USA into one.

But we're definitely running low on truly liberal democracies.

I'm 42 and I can retire at 57 if I don't fuck up or get too sick. And I want to be able to enjoy not working.

Same. Saaaaaame.

Amen!
