When I watch “the news” I am convinced we are living The Shit Show. Then I read your words, and I go for a walk on my beloved Coyote Hill, and I ponder it all, and life is OK once again. Be well, Chris. Your honesty is a beautiful thing.

shortly after He.Who.Shall.Remain.Nameless took office I received an unbidden vision. I saw his shamelessness being escorted down a hallway in leather and steel manacles, red tie and all, head hanging low, escorted by three uniformed officers. At the time we didn't know the shocks to come. I find the vision a hope and comfort.
Yes, this is absolutely true, all of it. And goddammit I need to drop Netflix. Also, I just bought an automatic programmable coffee maker, and it is a morning routine game-changer! Thanks for your words they make me feel better about how messed up I feel sometimes.
Dear Chris, so much of what you say here echoes my thoughts and feelings. Yet, much is also so specific to you. I love your honesty and your ability to give us the personal and the political. As always, it is a joy to read your words.
I am feeling so much of what you are feeling. It feels hopeless. I'm tired of these issues. I want to get out of the rat race. It's all a rat race. Even here in Montana. I want my life to be nothing but your walks in the woods, enjoying life, the planet, nature. Simple joys. I feel you, friend. So very, very much. Thank you so much for your beautiful words.
Angie, thank you. Next time I'm in Great Falls—which will definitely be this summer, probably more than once—let's figure out a way to spend some time together.

Needed this. Thank you.
Dear Chris,
shortly after He.Who.Shall.Remain.Nameless took office I received an unbidden vision. I saw his shamelessness being escorted down a hallway in leather and steel manacles, red tie and all, head hanging low, escorted by three uniformed officers. At the time we didn't know the shocks to come. I find the vision a hope and comfort.
It is something to hope for, truly. He deserves no less, nor do his throngs of enablers.
Yes, this is absolutely true, all of it. And goddammit I need to drop Netflix. Also, I just bought an automatic programmable coffee maker, and it is a morning routine game-changer! Thanks for your words they make me feel better about how messed up I feel sometimes.
Thank you, Joanna. I think anyone halfway sane is feeling messed up.

Sounds great! Keep me posted.
