This world has gone even more insane.

Rest in Peace Rob Reiner and his wife Michelle.

This is just another reminder of how this world has lost its way.

I saw on Facebook, people making fun of this, which is beyond disgusting.

This country has become so unhinged.

I won’t blame this totally on Trump, but he has stirred the pot and allowed the hate to continue. Reiner didn’t like Trump and Reiner didn’t hold back.

This is devastating in so many ways. I’m sad this happened to anyone especially a voice of reason against Trump that is silenced.

I went on youtube to find some live coverage from L.A. and the people in the chats were just vile.

was a news story a week or so ago claiming that 75% (??? I can't remember the exact % off the top of my head but it was very high) of comments were from trolls -- mostly Russian.

There was a saying going around, twenty or so years ago; "95% of material on the internet is produced by 5% of the users."

I know this has changed in the past couple of decades but I still believe the number of active posters over all platforms is nowhere near the amount of content created.

The closest to "hell" is being alive on this fucked up planet. Earth IS hell. I want to go home.
