I would like to add a holiday that once celebrated peace, but now celebrates militarism and war: Veterans Day (US). Not long ago, it was St. Martin’s day, a feast that commemorates a Roman soldier who abandoned his military office to become a monk. It was customary to sign peace treaties on his feast day for this reason. Included in this was Armistice Day, the end of World War 1. Eventually in the US this was changed to Veterans Day in 1954.

Oh that’s right! Great episode.
It also helps to be familiar with evangelical worship music. Strong Jesus-is-my-boyfriend vibes in many of those lyrics.
How cool! Give me a time machine and some antibiotics and set me up with an English painter’s guild in post-plague 14th century!
My computer skills? Not far. My house painting skills? I guess maybe 200 years, but I’m not excited about the prospect of using lead-based paint and wood ladders. As a jazz-trained musician, I guess to the 1940s.
This is going to create a nightmare of backlogged cases.
I missed the ANTIFA riots. I guess Evan and I don’t get our news from the same sources.
It’s amazing that this administration is so spectacularly bad that even its propaganda machine can’t hide it.
This administration is demonic.
I have a family who I would rather not expose to insane death threats from red hats and shitlibs.
Perfect opportunity to show up to work every day in DC, be denied entry, and hold a press conference and talk exclusively about ACA subsidies and the affordability crisis under GOP leadership. Hell, get crazy and set up a tent, sleep there, and have the DNC provide private security. So many PR opportunities here.
Who am I gonna follow to make money on the stock market?!?!

I don’t think anyone in this demonic administration will ever be held accountable for anything. Rupert Murdoch won.
