You and I just had an exchange on my comment on Popular Information. You made sense so I checked out your site and you make even more sense. So I've subscribed to you--sorry I can't pledge, but I'm retired and supporting a disabled adult daughter and I'm plum out of money for more substacks. But keep on truckin'!!

Thank you! Your sub is massively appreciated, paid or not. My heart goes out to you and your daughter and it's warmed by the love you're showing her in your care. If you like what you read and think of others who might also enjoy it, please share. If things change and you can pitch money towards the writer's can at some point in the future, awesome. Regardless of how you are able to interact with Rant, I truly appreciate your appreciation.

Thanks Tim. You know we're on the same frequency. Too bad it seems that about half of the country is tuned into story hour.

Thanks for the kind compliments, Adam. I like the Joker paraphrase too.

Our main problem is that the Joker(s) we do have, staged an insurrection, took the seats they were elected to in Congress after it failed and keep trying for a coup, led by their orange-tinged madman. Is there a sanity-inducing answer to Smilex?

Bravo! I could rant for hours about the ugly trappings of Christian nationalism, and how the movement wants their scorched-earth doctrine written into law, but I will spare you the misery. Just know that I’m in lock step with you and your views and I appreciate your eloquent prose.

Randy, thanks again for the compliments. I truly despise the association of Jesus, a Jew from an area near N. Africa, with lies, antisemitism and white supremacy. It's as wrong as it is contradictory. Glad you're enjoying my screeds.
