Something I’m looking forward to today: Time alone. I’ve had just about enough of people at the moment.

Something I’m looking forward to in the next seven days: An appointment next Tuesday with the guy who’s going to operate on my neck.

Something I’m grateful for from yesterday: Back-and-forth fantasy football smacktalk.

What I’m writing: Yesterday’s Two Crappy Pages involved some work on the draft of a story about lessons learned from a failed product.

What I’ve written: Your Wednesday morning news nutrition is just a click away! Today’s News Nuggies are fortified with news about the most financially literate state (which you would never guess), Americans’ slightly smaller waistlines, our growing tendency to not leave the house, shoes that expand with your nasty feet, and JELL-O you can sit on.

I know I have eclectic tastes in music. Put my library on shuffle and you could get anything from NWA to Gregorian chants, Metallica to Alison Krause, Breaking Benjamin to Marcus King. I believe a broad taste in music is healthy.

What’s not healthy is Donald Trump.

America’s Hitler turned a recent campaign stop in Pennsylvania into a dance party, eschewing (ducking) actual questions during the town hall for show-and-tell of his Spotify playlist. This included not one, not two, but three playings of Ava Maria, Sinead O’Connor’s “Nothing Compares 2 U” and GnR’s “November Rain,” and damn you, Mr. Insurrectionist in Chief, for forcing the amazing Slash into your ear holes. All the while, the crazy bastard swayed and shuffled and did the double-jerkoff dance, demonstrated above.

Meanwhile, avowed puppy killer Kristi Noem, who was supposed to moderate the hatefest, tried to get the dumbass back on target. His flying monkey brigade of campaign advisors even begged him on his teleprompter to, ya know, answer a few questions before he went back to being Casey Kasem after huffing paint. All to no avail, of course, because the man is seriously unhinged.

The night ended with a playing of “YMCA” by The Village People, a group of men he and his Klan of supporters considers less than human.

And still roughly half of you morons are going to vote for him. God bless Muricah.
