The World Turned Upside Down

Well then. Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you probably already know the results of the US presidential election. If you haven’t heard the news because you were living under a rock, then that sounds like a lovely place to live and I hope you invite me to stay until this all blows over. I'm not writing here to criticize Trump, or to attack his supporters. You certainly won't find me celebrating the prospect of a Trump presidency, but that's neither here nor there. I’ll make time this weekend to discuss the growing toxicity of American political “discourse” (if you can even call it that, at this point). For now, though, I have schoolwork to do and a Black Sabbath concert (this Saturday!) to look forward to. After all, it’s best not to write a political post when your emotions are in turmoil. These things, like most in life, are best done with a clear head and even hand.

Until next time,

Guitarman
