6. It's no revelation, but Jesus H. Christ, the world is incredibly weird these days.

Multiple times each day, I’m head-shakingly astounded at the insanity that’s running loose in the world these days, with America playing no small part.
-Donald TRUMP is actually president?
-Russia and North Korea are our bosom buddies.
-Rednecks wear t-shirts that read, “I’d Rather be Russian than Democrat.”
-Reality is whatever you say it is. Facts, hard evidence, doesn’t matter.
-The U.S. president and administration openly, boldly LIE about everything. Shown a contradicting videotape, the individual insists it’s “fake news” and/or “it was taken out of context.” And yet there it is, on tape, for all to see.

Reality denied, again and again, always declared to be something else. Laundering money is a hobby that’s A-OK in this territory. And in the meantime, the thieves are robbing the store blind.
