More coffee, please.

I emerge from the almost exclusively underwater portion of my journal to bring you this from throwingstardna::

Jeb Bush unleashes Chang, his mystical warrior alter-ego, complete with sword.

"Chang is a mystical warrior. Chang is somebody who believes in conservative principles, believes in entrepreneurial capitalism, believes in moral values that underpin a free society.

"I rely on Chang with great regularity in my public life. He has been by my side and sometimes I let him down. But Chang, this mystical warrior, has never let me down."

Bush then unsheathed a golden sword and gave it to Rubio as a gift. "I'm going to bestow to you the sword of a great conservative warrior," he said, as the crowd roared.



Oh. My. Damn.

And today, an employee came to work with a gun, threatening to shoot the office staff because someone owed him $275. This particular guy had previously been acquitted on three murder charges. There was a big to-do, and other guns were drawn out on the docks.


I think that it's kind of interesting how absolutely unfazed I am by this. Ordinarily, I would be pretty shaken up, but after the past month, I can't really muster any response. It's like I've got no emotion left. Fuck it, you know? When your ticket's up, it's up.
