Thank you for the solid advice. I agree that calling Trump a tyrant, etc does not help. I have been finished debating for a few months. I only wish to discuss things that help us. I'm not physically doing well, and have little free time, but I have committed to calling or emailing a representative or senator twice weekly. The time for insults or debates is over. No time for complaining.

I think that's the most effective thing we can do right now. I hope you recover and feel better soon. I've been depressed, but my strength seems to be coming back bit by bit.

Substack is a haven for those of us that want to FOCUS and move forward. We can't waste time. I am also admitting depression which began last week, regarding my health, but also our dear country. It helps to come here and see your focus which in turn, helps us to help you. I can't check in daily anymore but weekly feels like a luxury right now. I hope your depression is short! If "The Hunger Games" become real, we will need a civilized plan for avoiding the (glorified) violence. The sad part is for example, we boomers should be retiring, not planning for an AVOIDABLE apocalyptic era. Sending love and hugs to you and your family. Be safe Walter.
