Kimmel

Don't know why, after all the truly horrible stuff that's been done, don't know why Jimmy Kimmel's suspension pushed me over the edge.

Maybe because he is somewhat Establishment, a presumably protected rich white man. If he's a victim, then the country is truly crumbling before the loony evil greedy bullies. (Colbert? That was a slap on the wrist, giving him a year; a lot can happen in a year.)

Check my privilege? Yeah I was counting on it.

I'm close to retirement, hoping to keep my head down, wanting to continue on my nice little patch of finally-something-is-mine New Hampshire home. My yard. My garden. I need to continue working. I worry that some strange medical expense will destroy it all, all my saving and scrimping and not doing stuff (trips, theatres, restaurants, home improvements) so I could save money so I could be safe, despite layoffs, not ruined by emergencies.

I need to work, mainly for health insurance.

What drugs should I request from my shrink so that I can continue to function despite the current political situation? 

Prozac? More Prozac?
