A Sunday morning diversion: scriptwriting this era

1. Is the opposite of "sour grapes"

“Pie in the sky”?

Man, I really, really want you to be right, but at this point I’m not gonna try to kick that football again. Lucy just gon’ do what she always does.

I keep waiting for TX to turn blue. Don’t think that’s going to happen, and we spend a ton of attention on that.

I keep waiting for people like Abbot or Cruz to lose their elections. They never do, it’s never even really close, but it should have been a landslide for our side, right? Where’s Beto?

I keep waiting for some of the guard rails in our system to keep SCOTUS impartial. That sure went well for us.

Or to keep government assassins accountable when they kill American citizens. Alex and Renee would like a word.

I keep waiting for the stock market to make some sense at all out of where we really are and drop like a brick. Nope, keeps responding to tweets from the ultimate “boy who cried “wolf” “.

It’s a good thing I don’t have any influence whatsoever. Impotence is its own power in a way. I get to sit back and watch this entire shit show, knowing there isn’t a damned thing I can do about it. It is some grand drama, you’re right about that.

And I do hope you’re right, and I’m wrong about where this is all headed.

Cheers, I always enjoy your posts PC.
