The afternoon of November 6th, 2024 🇺🇸
Hello (again?) - greetings and salutations, dear Reader; welcome! It's a few minutes past four o'clock in the afternoon on a relatively warm November day. The final number of votes from Arizona - where we live - are being delayed. Sorry, guys, but that's not going to work this time. 😂
We are within driving distance of Maricopa County.
Well, here we go. (You know that I'm in the United States, right? That matters. Anyway...) the pundits on the Right are indulging in major Schadenfreude right now, all of them apparently are. It's all very juvenile (but, dear Reader, I won't pretend that I haven't done any of that myself though not towards anyone, just here with my husband, he and I privately at home - which is still an expression of imperfect character, but at least we're trying to keep it to ourselves - progress not perfection, right?)
But seeing the hosts of "the View" (because we try to consume a balance of media from primarily the right, yes, but also from centrists AND the left as well) anyway, after seeing the women on "the View" respond to the massive Red wave that just undeniably swept the nation, it's easier to feel less disappointment in the immature ways some are openly (sometimes, viciously) celebrating today.
Sunny Hostin was particularly offensive and, though I can't quote her verbatim, her elitist attitude towards "uneducated women" is exemplary of the Democratic party's present attitude towards this nation as a whole. I get the feeling that what she means by "uneducated" is "did not attend an Ivy League college and swallow up all of the leftist indoctrination".
I'm actually not consumed with anger over it though, just making a realistic and honest observation of what I saw and heard myself while watching mainstream media in death throes.
This chick. 🙄 Then she said that her daughter will not have the same rights that she has, but I submit to you that the reality is, her grandchildren are simply now more protected from being slaughtered in the womb and now have a greater chance at life (depending on where she lives, of course, because all the Supreme Court did was send that back to all 50 states to each decide).
I got sick and tired years ago of being lied to and for a good ten years or better, went out of my way to never, ever watch any "news" - period. The bliss of deliberate ignorance felt glorious at the time, but the world went to Hell while I was busy picking flowers.
Now, however, I'm paying attention - to everything, because:
We'll see how things go; just taking this one day at a time, asking God to guide us all in His will. 👍
So, dear Reader: are you awake yet?
