One of my favorite books of all time. If you haven't read it, give it a try. It's older, but it's amazingly on point for its time.

Found this on imgur, seemed relevant today with all the talk about 1984.

Note the date on the comic - its from after the bush presidency, before obama really did anything, and long before trump. This is NOT about the president or politics. It's about us. Including me. I'll go back to looking at funny internet pictures now

I could use some soma right about now.

Herr Drumpf is much more a Kosinskian figure than an Orwellian one. President Grabby has a lot more in common with Chance the Gardener than Big Brother. He simply wants to be the most famous person ever and doesnt have the ### or home-video skills to be a Kardashian.

This all truly IS about the people who voted for him, those who need a spoiled bully, who gets everything he wants by command, to emulate - finishing the cycle of singlewhitefemale adulation of millionaires in Reagan's American Morning - to transform their worthlessness into somethingness. nufced
