What happens when you lose your rage?
As a person with a notorious temper when I was younger, age and consequences have slowed it down considerably. I have gained the ability to slow down, problem solving replaced most of my primal urge to lash out. Mostly… I still had a general rage simmering under the surface. Ready for a trigger, but recently…

Climate warrior hoax
Unfortunately politicians are in charge. Their job is to stay in charge. To do that they need votes and supporters. More is better. So truthfully Governor Gavin Newsome isn’t a Bond villain just good at what he does. Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco are the major population centers of California. Populated with people…
