They take days to erase it all.

Destruction is always fast and easy. Creating takes real effort
I think we may need to get rid of the obstructions. Getting real sick and tired waiting for "incremental change" when I've watched the goddamn dial move backwards my entire lifetime.
It's not so much "obstructions" as that it requires both earned expertise and hard work to create stuff.
I’m so fucking tired of journalists underestimating the fear that scientists felt when shithead got reelected. How could reality exceed my worst fears when i am expecting the literal fucking apocalypse?
Anger at journalists is misdirection. There have never been fewer journalists, they have never been worse paid, and the line is going in one direction only. A world without journalists will be a thousand times worse than it is already. It's a world "shithead" himself dreams of. The anger is misdirected.
i’m not actually angry at journalists. i was making fun of the click baity headline. i don’t know how many variations of “even the most pessimistic x didn’t expect trump to be THIS bad.” Yes, i did.
Fair enough.
