Starting tomorrow—November 1st—I’m declaring it “No Trump November” on my Facebook page. I need a break from the daily circus, so I don’t plan to mention him at all during the month. I’m cutting myself off cold turkey. No posts, no comments, no rants. Please don’t tempt me with articles, videos, or breaking news.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Robert: That’s fine; I won’t post a link to this post on your FB page, the way I normally would.

I would point out, though, that in a way this plays into Trump’s hands. The work of fine and intelligent people like you impedes his ability to inflict damage on our formerly great country.

I encourage readers to check out this tongue-in-cheek ad for plant-based meat.

There is a maxim in marketing warning against “promoting the enemy line,” this is so clever, I can see where it could be quite effective.

As we all know, the GOP will stop at nothing to win the midterms, thus making it impossible to remove the sociopathic criminal from the White House.

But did any of us see this coming?

Macabre.

A Profile in Corporate Greed

I just met a woman who’s been a flight attendant for Delta Airlines since the early 1990s, who laments that her company has been ruined by corporate greed, which has trashed so many other things in our lives.

As it turns out, the CEO makes more than $20 million per year, largely based on bonuses associated with cutting costs. “Now we have tray tables that don’t work and seatbacks that don’t recline, and nobody even thinks about fixing them.”

She went on, “This shift has been particularly obvious in the case of Delta, which, when I started with them, was known for its southern charm and the feeling of welcoming its passengers. Now, that gone. It’s like it never existed.”
