One can hope.

 

But kicking and screaming it will be. 

 

I also love the video above where the reporter laid out how the people around He Who Shall Not Be Named are enabling him. Someone needed to say it. 

And you would be large and in charge about it.

How much of a narcissist do you have to be to think promising lap dances and hot tub parties will persuade potential donors to part with their cash?  I know 90-year-old church ladies who are hotter than Kimberly Guilfoyle.

That half this country is willing to go along with these dangerous lies, including 98% of the GOP, in order to continue to consolidate power tells me that there really is no going back. Biden will at least be able to stop, for 4 years, a complete turn into fascism, but it's going to take so much struggle and pain from so many people to go beyond that. And considering the GOP are stopping Biden from even being able to have adequate Secret Service protection, he is in danger every time he goes outside his front door.

 

This country is just about entirely gone, likely gone for good, and yet all we are getting from most of the Democrats right now is infighting and pissing contests. I am aware there is very little that can be done, and I'm aware that trying to fight what Trump is doing will just make it even worse, but we are in such a low place. Seeing complete idiots like Rashida "no, no, I'll boo" Tlaib treated as a leading figure of the party makes me want to just go hide in a cave and not even bother to come back out.

The problem is not so much about not being able to edit as it is when it becomes difficult to tell whether or not any non-positive thoughts about what is going on right now are too much for people to read. I don't have the ability or mental strength at this point to parse that much. That is what I meant.

 

I can post less, which I am probably going to do anyway as there isn't much left to say about what's going on with the election, but as I may still upset people, the best solution would be to use the ignore option.

    • DePriest left in January 1988. According to the AWHP, Rose last appeared nearly a year before in February 1987 while both Sara and Peggy appeared as late as October 1987.
    • Annie was not brought in as an antagonist for Reva. Reva wasn’t even on the canvas when Annie first appeared in late 1994. 
    • The speculation……….very entertaining. 
    • I had forgotten that several Days stars came out strong against Melissa. Good for them!
    • That would have made sense. Did all these characters get dropped when DePriest left or had they already been dropped?
    • The other issue with Missy: in June 2020, she "liked" some social media posts by Candace Owens -- things Candace said that were against Black Lives Matter.  That is described here https://tvline.com/news/melissa-reeves-racism-days-of-our-lives-instagram-controversy-2894568/ I don't know if that was ever resolved.
    • She appeared onscreen not long after Rose Livingston and Sara Montaigne, and we found out that Sara was Rose's estranged daughter. I wonder whether Peggy might have been part of that family group -- or else they were just juggling a few different potential mysteries so that they could develop whatever seemed to be getting the best response from the audience. They didn't do anything much with Rose and Sara really either. Maybe Rose would have become more prominent if Rachel and Mac had split up over Mitch, or if Sara had really flourished. In some ways I can picture Cheryl being affected by MJ's prostitution similarly to how Josie was distressed by finding out about Sharlene. But I can also see that Josie as a Frame being involved with Matthew would have different stakes for Rachel and Sharlene than Cheryl being involved with Scott. I do think the solution for Cheryl would have had to be a badder boy than Scott -- either a real bad boy who would do her wrong, or the kind of bad boy (not Chad!!!) who is essentially misunderstood and other people just don't understand. Cheryl would also have been better off with some friends her own age. Matthew and Josie benefited a bit from having other teenagers to interact with.
    • Sally Spencer was a decent actress, but the writing destroyed the "M.J." that Kathleen Layman had built. Layman had a quiet strength about her, and she and Osburn really felt like sisters. Spencer's character should have been either an unmentioned sister, or maybe Jake's that grew up close to Kathleen, M.J. and the rest, but was away for a few years before joining the force. Kristen Marie was o.k., but I always got a mousier vibe from her. Being pigeon-holed with Scott for most of the run hurt things for her, as well.  The Loves were also underserved between Rhonda Lewin and Philece Sampler. Philece would have been better as Nicole. Thank goodness Anne Heche  showed up for the next round of auditions. Christopher Holder was mediocre as Peter, but given a shot, I think Marcus Smythe could have stuck around for a while.  I would have had Peggy Lazarus be a Frame -- possibly an ex-wife for Vince with an agenda. Smythe and Hollen had  a fun chemistry that could have kept the two around.. Bringing recasts for  Cheryl and Ben back mixing it up with other Frames. Corys, Lawrences at the time might have kept all the families stronger. 
    • shoot...he said in that Locher room with Krista. I think he met her before that---she was doing Broadway and they had mutual friends or an agent maybe?
