I have been in a gigantic funk, pretty much ever since the election. I'm trying to fight my way out of it now. I can't promise upcoming pieces won't get political.
The last time I checked, we still have the freedom of speech in this country (for now, anyway!) - so write *whatever* you feel like writing about! The current political situation affects ALL of us, so it should concern ALL of us. Continue to write what you feel, from your heart, and you will connect with and grow your audience.
As for the ‘funk’ you are in, you’re certainly not alone (despite living in deep red SW FL). If you can’t find any liberal-leaning friends or colleagues to discuss things with, there’s plenty of us out here on Substack! That’s one of the more positive aspects of social media platforms. 🙃
Hey, just remember, fifty four is the new fifty two. When I saw your picture, I was like, "that guy doesn't look a day over fifty-two". Rollin' the clock in reverse, Joe!
That will be my sole useful function at that point. To be honest, I currently only have maybe three to four other useful functions, and they're much less impressive.
I’m happy that you’re writing again, Joe. 🙂

Okay Joe quit your bitching.
84,. wife 12 years younger, 5 children, 5 grandchildren, 7 great-grandchildren, earned my white hair teaching the likes of you.
Still love every one of the 18,000 who suffered me.
Love you, Mr. P.

Thanks, man! Can't wait until I'm like 87 and you're there to say, "dude you totally look 86.9! Way to rock it!"

You look so handsome and happy, next to your beautiful girl who clearly adores you. What else would you want?
A Porsche 911 GTS with the six speed manual.
WHOOPS! Um, I mean, nothing. Nothing at all!
