Truly unsettling!

I never understood when people talked about the holiday blues until fairly recently, but over the past several years I’ve noticed that I tend to get kind of depressed around Christmas. Combine that with the way it’s shoved down your throat for two months leading up to it, and I’m really not a fan. It’s a shame because I used to love it.

It's true that Christmas stuff start being everywhere far too early, but I manage not really to engage until I'm going home to my parents for the holiday.

I always feel despair January 1st instead. Like, "here we go again"

Hopefully I'll feel happy after New Year for once. I've had some good things happening this year.

The legal challenge is going to probably be whether or not the caravan is considered mostly comprised of legit asylum seekers or not, because if they were "seeking asylum", why not take up Mexico's support when it was offered freely a month ago? Education, jobs, security: that was all on the table but very few took them up on it.

Why don't you go live in ****ing Mexico?

Because I'm happy where I live in the U.S. my leather winged friend.

But if I was fleeing the U.S. for some reason toward South America and someone offered me the same deal Mexico offered the migrants, I would have taken it.
