Civic Duty

Tuesday, November 5th, the Most Important Election Of Our Lives; narrowly edging 2020, which was The Previous Most Important Election Of Our Lives.

Anyone who hasn’t voted yet is either truly undecided (you know, like the choice between chicken or decomposing rat) or planning to sit this one out.

Don’t.

I won’t tell you how to vote, but I have a couple thoughts:

No Jill Stein, or Mickey Mouse or other protest votes. It’s a two party world because of the Electoral College. Vote for the person you hate least, if nothing else.

If you have kids, the world we will leave them may be unfathomable. Vote for the one likely to address climate change.

Vote for human rights.

Vote for the rule of law.

Vote for inclusion, and empathy, and love.

Vote for democracy.
