Camp Stub
Author: TriSec    Date: 11/19/2016 11:41:19

Good morning.

One of the advantages to staging a Cub Scout overnight at the camp that's within walking distance is I get to stay late, go home and sleep in my own bed, and run back to camp in the morning before anybody realizes I went home.

So I'm back off to camp this am and leaving you with a stub. Perhaps there is something to that 'Cheerful Service even in the midst of irksome tasks and weighty responsibilities" that I swore my honor to some years ago.

Stay strong.

Day 10



While I want to be very chill and focused on working toward something positive that will lift people up. And frankly that is how we will need to be since they have painted us as angry rioters.

This blog has existed for 9 years. In those 9 years we have seen 2 Presidents and soon -- a third. We are now in very interesting times.

One Week In - On the precipice of the Abyss
Author: BobR    Date: 11/16/2016 14:57:37

It's been one week since The Day The Earth Stood Still (because it couldn't fucking believe that Americans elected the completely unqualified racist, sexist asshole). Inauguration Day is still 2 months away, but it feels like a lifetime since the election, and a blink of the eye until he rolls into the White House with his ego sporting a permanent stiffy. There have been numerous stories already describing how ill-equipped he is for this role (and how little he understood the responsibilities), but that's a blog for another day.

During the campaign, he villainized (or at least minimized) anyone who was not a straight, white, Christian male. His supporters certainly got THAT message, based on their actions in just the last week:

Ask a Vet
Author: TriSec    Date: 11/15/2016 11:22:03

Good Morning.

We here at Ask a Vet are looking in the rear-view mirror with dismay. Seems hard to believe it was just 7 days ago that this was still the United States of America.

We'll start this morning in our littlest state. Local veterans in Rhode Island have reacted to Trump's win with a mixture of hope and dismay.

So What I want to tell you is this:

I want to tell you we will get through this. I want to tell you it will be fine. I want to tell you that we may be blowing this out of proportion. I want to tell you these things with all of my heart.

There are Positives
Author: TriSec    Date: 11/12/2016 13:25:22

Good Morning.

So.

I thought long and hard about a proper response to the results of 8 November. I have been pleasantly surprised, however, that my Facebook wall has not been totally overrun by dispatches from Dumbfuckistan. But two of my oldest and dearest friends from high school have decided to engage in an increasingly histrionic flame war that I've stayed out of. There have already been de-facings, and increasingly crude references to some anatomical areas that are usually not discussed in polite society. One can only hope it's a knee-jerk reaction at this time and perhaps it will pass.

Hi.... so...um... ya, not feeling very fluffy, funny or fierce at the moment. Can't turn on the news without wanting to cry and still just all kinds of pissed off. I'm sure we'll all move past this at some point to find our focus on how to get through the next few years. I am tired of hearing people say "it'll be ok" and "good people voted for..." , ya, no. Good people did not, selfish people did. See, still angry.

The resistance, however, started on 11/9.
