I'm not much of a conspiracy theorist - conspiracies take organization and secrecy, while humans are chaotic and like to talk, and Murphy's law can seem a lot like deliberate malfeasance when you are suffering the brunt of it - but, as in personally disheartening elections of the past I have yet to encounter anyone who claims to have voted FOR all the people elected & the measures that passed (or against those that didn't). Have I shut myself up in an echo chamber where I only hear from people Just Like Me? Not if my daily irritation levels are any sort of indication. If the majority voted for the results as given, odds are I would find myself running across one or two of them, at least, I would think. They can't all be stashed in the heartland, because we are talking Washington State-level issues. Just thoughts.
today is better

Not Interested
Seriously, how rude and self-involved do you have to be to be so utterly convinced that you are right and I am wrong about something as to come and…
