A quote from Saint Thomas Aquinas:

"He who is not angry when there is just cause for anger is immoral. Why? Because anger looks

to the good of justice. And if you can live amid injustice without anger, you are immoral as well

as unjust."


St. Thomas Aquinas

He should have been king of a Carnival krewe, not President, for Chrissake! Now I've been getting angry over the apparent lack of movement toward putting that bastard on trial. I hope the 1/6 Committee and the DOJ are about to appease my anger and that of the people who truly love our country. It's time.

I’ve been alternating between outrage and over-the-top anxiety all week long. Thinking of going back on meds.
