54. Fuck it!

Tue Apr 7, 2026, 05:33 PM

18 hrs ago

Bought some maple bourbon and a whoopie pie on my way home from work
Bought tickets to see the Wood Brothers, Les Claypool and the Frog Brigade and Disco Biscuits
Booked all that plus a couple of campgrounds for days I should be at work, without banked time.

I've been arrested for peace a few times and I'm seeing it as a distinct possibility again soon.
They were totally white privilege arrests. But I'm going to go full bore on enjoying life
while going full bore on attempting to do my part to resurrect Democracy.

Fuck IT
