I am not paying attention to the media. I don't trust them, their polls, their punditry.

I just take people at their word, and look at the facts, and it scars the shit out of me, I see my whole world, my whole life come crashing down around me.

So I make plans rather than be caught flat footed.

I think of the Jews in Weimar Germany, those who saw the hand writing on the

wall and fled before the gates closed, and those who had hope or clung to the belief that things aren't or won't be so bad.
