Trump tells Christian voters they 'won't have to vote anymore' if he's elected

Speaking at a gathering of religious conservatives, Donald Trump said if he's reelected, Christian-related concerns will be "fixed" so much so that they would no longer need to be politically engaged.

Bear in mind that these guys are not just extras in fancy dress. They are real soldiers, with real guns that are really loaded with real rounds. If something serious kicks off then they are ready to fight. The sentry in the picture has probably done tours in Afghanistan and Iraq, and may well have also done peacekeeping work in Africa.

Making fun of these guys, trying to goad them into violating standing orders, is not cool.

This kind of behavior should not be promoted. The guard is doing their job and is probably proud about it as well. These people should not be used for entertainment. People doing their job should be respected, no matter what profession they have. What this guy is doing is just as wrong as preventing first responders to do their work. Something that's also a new trend in this already mentally ill society. Please remove it.

*The citizens of Totalitaria do not really converse with one another.

When they speak, they whisper, first looking furtively over their shoulders for the inevitable spy. Their inner silence is in sharp contrast to the official verbal bombardment.

The citizens of Totalitaria may make noise, and utter polite banalities, or they may repeat slogans to one another, but they say nothing.*

In the garden

In the garden rags and broken bits, trailing paper ribbons, shards and excrement, weave a picture, a scene a thumb reel of protected vision. The garden grows though abandoned by light and conscious thought. Tangles give way to magical gates.

Thank you ❤️. Yes. BunMum’s systems are definitely failing. The past year has been a nightmare and there is no vocabulary to describe this.

Flaring autoimmune conditions with fevers and pain, wracking allergic cough from masks, UTI and peeing blood (sorry. got macrobid from pharm…). Just trying to hang on hun…. I’m so so sorry you’ve gone through similar experiences.💔 Sitting alone here with Dad and fiercely hoping they can extubate today and at least bring him some small relief.

Picasso (was Rousseau) 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

Oh gosh, that's a world of distress. All you can really do is just be there for your dad and your mom. That's the hard part, being and not doing. I do believe your dad is aware of your presence and feels your love. There's so much we don't know about healing and communication; just because that power can't be measured doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Satori :Skye: 🌲❄️ 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

I agree. As a scientist of observable nature Ceno also agrees there are different energies on planes we haven’t even scratched the surface of, and my experience supports this.

I stayed up over 30 hours and had good communications with nutritionist/nasop options etc, the nurse and plans, and was available for questions (what is this for? Ah, The last nurse prescribed it…) (cont.)

Satori :Skye: 🌲❄️ 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

I bore witness to night nurses who didn’t realize there was an audience and was able to build a relationship with a brutally tough nurse who ended up going the extra mile for me wi th the resident on call. Unfortunately, the expected collapse has finally happened. My resp system is just inflamed in collapse, my UTI needs help after dehydration and I just can’t go in tomorrow. 45 min travel time is compounding this. I hope the care I was able to establish continues forward. (Cont.)

I promise I am trying everything, playing beloved CDs. Every approach, every word, emotion, and sense. I’ve told my beloved grandparents to “send him back” if he turns up. He always speaks of the importance of consciousness…

My own light is dimming and I will stay home tonight gathering up everything I have for tomorrow’s attempt. Please please let tomorrow be a good day. So often a good day follows a bad. Please. He wrote this the morning of the surgery. Forgive the teardrops.

What a touching note, profound in its simplicity. You're doing everything possible, as are your floof friends, who are pulling for him as hard as possible through thought and prayer and tears, each in their own way. I thought of your parents when I heard Céline Dion's outstanding rendition of Piaf's Hymne à l'amour. Please, please, please get better.

Grave condition tonight💔, we are here. My mom, Ceno, brother and his wife stayed most time too in agony. Ceno and I are still here.

Nurse saw me and my brother in masks and said I want to know why . “He’s on a ventilator and can’t catch anything.” My brother was shocked and only stammered and pointed to me. I told her yes I am immunocompromised. (But I also wear to protect my dad.) None of her goddamn business. Absolute horror show at the worst moment of our lives in ICU.

Picasso (was Rousseau) 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

Woke up thinking about your dad. Forget the stupid nurse, she's not important. The only thing you can do now is be there for one another and give your dad all your love. We can never be prepared for times like this. I'm in tears for you. Wish words could heal. ❤️

Satori :Skye: 🌲❄️ 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

4:57 am ❤️ I gave him one last daughter to Dad encouragement speech for today to rally and filled him with the greatest of love. It is indeed all out of my hands, you’re right. After living in the margins for two and a half weeks, I’m not even operating in the margins now. 😞

They’re still only allowing 2/persons at a time. Mom and Scott are resting for three hours before Ceno and I need to leave and attend to the buns.

Picasso (was Rousseau) 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

At some level of awareness, your dad knows you're there, whether physically in the room or not. Things will be a blur for you, going in and out of focus. You try to wake from the nightmare, but part of you knows it's real. You're not alone, even when you feel like you are, and neither is your dad.
My father died in the ICU, on a ventilator, after being ill for a while, several years ago. The worst day of my life at the time.
Much love to you all ❤️

Ceno and I came home to the buns. Mom and Scott are there. Some important indicators are improving this morning, including blood pressure and lactic acid, so we will keep our focus there.

It was emotional hell.The level of care & the staff were very competent & compassionate; before all the closures & cutbacks, so no delays. My mom was in denial, even when the doc explained things clearly. All those machines & cords & tubes.

You've got some positive news. I'm hoping with all my heart that your dad rallies. With you in spirit ❤️

Satori :Skye: 🌲❄️ 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

Thank you. Rallied enough to attempt a 3rd wake-up off sedation in next 2 hours. Barrier has been the damn emergent delirium. Can’t follow commands = can’t protect airways = stay on ventilator. I’m at home, supposed to be sleeping. Getting updates from Scott. Nurse is a blessing today and going slow.

Yes, endless tubes. Drains. Cords. Bags. I sat outside briefly to try to channel natural energy and kept hearing the ICU alarms I heard all night. Inside I keep hearing the ventilator.

Satori :Skye: 🌲❄️ 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

Denial is such a strong protection mechanism that can kick in. And there such a tricky balance between hope and realism. Nurse last night talked about Dad in past tense, jarring.

I relate to that feeling of it being a nightmare. There’s such a surreal quality. All I could say to Ceno all the way home was the world unbearable. Bottomless chasm of darkness and pain. Unbearable.

Picasso (was Rousseau) 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

How stupid and cruel. No excuses, but it's probably her defense mechanism kicking in. May be on nights to minimize family contact. Should be on another ward for a while. Nobody should have to deal with that attitude. Try to pack that away and let some positive energy flow. He's still with you all, steeped in love.

Picasso (was Rousseau) 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

Surreal, yes. Like you're watching yourself on a screen but can't connect with that other you.
Unbearable, yes. Still, you have family and friends to help you bear it. And Skye and Sitara, who will comfort you in the simplicity and clarity of the present.

Picasso (was Rousseau) 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

These are encouraging developments. He's trying, really trying. We'll all keep hoping, like that banner in the entrance.
I remember my dad looking so small, dwarfed by all the equipment and screens. Quiet human voices mufled by the click and whoosh of the ventilator.
Focusing on the positives for your dad. Hope you can get some rest.
