If more people could read between the lines, they would understand what you're actually saying. Thank you, Jon, for telling a truth, in a round-about way. A TRUTH, that people who tell it, are punished by people who don't want it to be told.

I am not going to “LIKE” this because at First you totally freaked me out Jon and then I thought hold up...this is Jon writing this .. it’s satire but sadly, If something like Chinese troops storming the Santa Monica beaches DID happen I wouldn’t be at all surprised. Hopefully the first one they would take out would be Newsom (you know...to dinner)

Reading “A Special Reader Contacts Me” flipped my mind on into comic book mode and I wondered what the artwork would look like in a comic book to support this potential choice offered in the form of satire. Then I quickly wrote an epilogue in my mind of this potential choice, and was thankful for the opportunity to view this potential in satire without picking it.

Why do I think I know something about anything. I had to look up Sinaloa. Amazing Jon you are a gift to humanity :) I could not stop laughing and *that* hasn't happened in many moons. I read this four times and plan to read it continuously, as therapy (for these "brain-cracking shifts of reality.")

I also, have the comment "My name is Li Po Schwartz. hahahahaha" (I heart Li Xiansheng) Thank you, THANK you, THANK YOU :) :)
