The only thing I can say, as a foreigner and non American, is, that I see one big banana republic about to go off the rails soon.

Got my safety pin on as I’m reading this. Glad we think alike.

I just happen to be wearing my safety pin when I read this. I’m glad that we often think alike 🙂

You know, I learned about the safety pin from R, who learned about it on Facebook, and I’m glad you wear yours, but I haven’t come across a single other person who wears it. Maybe there has to be something else, but until then, I’m keeping it on. Yesterday I was in the car, far from home, when I realized I forgot the pin, so I went to a Walgreens to get a bunch to keep in the car.
