On topics and today's gnus. Definitely opinionated. Set to 18+ for a reason.

The Insurrection
Sadly, none of the WDC prompts today on any of the forums even come close to any issue about real life community events. Just another day of banana pudding prompts, imo.

However, one year ago today, I turned on ABC to watch the boring certification of the elections. The results were clear. All states had counted, even recounted, the votes and certified the 2020 election.

It wasn't quite so boring when protestors spurred on by an angry spurned candidate marched to the Capitol. Those watching CBS saw crowds milling around outside as commentators oblivious to what was going on inside chatted. It looked like a picnic from afar. It was different on ABC where they had accounts of what was going on inside. What I witnessed was an Insurrection.

This is WaPo's video (14 minutes), explanation and timeline:



It wasn't a picnic inside.

Today, January 6th, 2022 President Biden addressed the nation, rebuking the former president for his actions and inactions.



For those willing to blog today on this or something else:
