I'm done for today.

I get people panicking, I feel it too.

But I've blocked so many people today for wishing for violence, saying voting doesn't matter, etc.

I have no tolerance for that. None.

And then one coming in saying that I was "for the status quo" and blocking me... that was mature. From kolektiva server, so there's that.

Seriously, I'm so over today.

I hope those of you who are more rational have a more peaceful evening.

Today sucked, but let's stay rational. PLEASE.

@GottaLaff Please tell me you at least had some good Canada Day R&R.

@TheEjj No R and R, I was at this keyboard (see my feed).

These people own closets full of guns and sometimes openly threaten to kill Democrats.

November is too late. This must be handled NOW through any means possible. And I mean ANY means possible, middle-of-5th-Avenue-style or not.

@GottaLaff Violence and end of days nonsense is the last thing we need, just vote, most people don't want this Trump bullshit, they just need to prove it. Great post.

@GottaLaff Voting and doing all you can to get President Biden is the only way to protect . I agree, no need for any irrational thoughts or actions.

@PeaceCovey 👆🏼Why I don’t block kolektiva.

I also have some mutuals there who I respect.

I wish I could block that instance, but at this point, I’m not ready to.

@GottaLaff “From kolektiva server, so there's that.”

Oh, yeah, I blocked that whole thing a while back and haven’t looked back.

GottaLaff OP ,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@jeff I would, but I actually have some good mutuals from there.

Stick with it, please.
Us non US-ians need reassurance that there are voices of reason and sanity amidst the, quite frankly, frightening news we're getting.
And, certainly for this Fediverse citizen, you're absolutely one of them, a glimpse of shelter through the mists.

GottaLaff OP ,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@Fragarach I will, but it is NOT easy.

Many thanks.

Remind me, do you have a Patreon or something?

@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@peribotsarah No. I used to do regular podcast/radio work, for decades, but I stopped. @Fragarach

@flyhigh @Fragarach Thank you! I’m in great company.

@GottaLaff A lot of people are so caught into the fact that the elections have become "picking the lesser of the two evils" that they completely forget that it's still crucial to make sure the country goes down the right route. It is a must to encourage anyone in doubt that they need to be part of it too.

@GottaLaff Hey Laffy, first, we love you. Secondly, good policy on blocking the lunatics. Some of the days it rains, on other days we get sunshine. As I respond to you on the next day, Giuliani has been disbarred

I second all this.

@Eetschrijver @tomiahonen Thank you BOTH.

@GottaLaff
That's what they are trying to do...
You have a big following and by harassing you they push you off your goal.
I don't even talk or respond...
I just block.
A day away never hurts though!

GottaLaff OP ,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@palin They've been doing this since I got on social media in 2008, nothing new.

When I say and I'm basically alerting my followers and then blocking.

Right now, voting is the only way out of this. I am not a violent person but I fear what I will need to do to survive in another Trump administration.
