Good news!

I had a gander at the news recently and it was, indeed, a pleasure for once in a long while. 

Here are some of the good bits: Andrew, brother of Charles, is to be stripped of his royal titles. HAHAHA. He and his ex-wife, Fergie, if I've understood correctly, must also vacate their manse of many years for digs slightly less dignified. Again I say: HAHAHA. The Democratic response to drumpf's shameless attempt at a power grab (gerrymandering in conservatively-run states to help keep his fat-ass in power) have led to PROP 50 passing. Essentially, we've agreed to a five-year gerrymandering situation here in California to block redistricting attempts by Republicans. Zohran Mamdani, a young New Yorker with South Asian roots, wins the NYC mayoral race. Dick Cheney, the so-called 'shadow president' and the architect of the 'war on terror', who was George W. Bush's VP, has finally died. 


I will leave you with two snaps from Halloween/Trick or Treat events here in town--
