Baby-sitting my man-servant
I had to cut off his news watching habit - the results were not pretty
I could not take it anymore.
I had to do it.
After slipping two sleeping pills and a Xanax or two into Nick’s carafe of midnite coffee, he finally succumbed to sleep and stopped watching cable news coverage of TFG.
As soon as I made sure he was unconscious, I switched the channel to the Cartoon Network.
I figured that if he did manage to regain consciousness he would assume that he was still watching the Trump Shit Show running non-stop on most of the cables news networks.
Truthfully, I could not stand another Trump Shit Show marathon.
It had to be done, his obsession with the Trump sewage being spewed on cable news had to be curtailed before he turned to alcohol and heroin for relief.
Truthfully I could not fault him if he started guzzling vodka. I thought about getting into the vodka myself.
He woke periodically while cartoon staple Tom and Jerry were playing. He assumed he was watching a GQP House debate on the budget and fell back into his slumber.
Every hour or so I would slip a sleeping pill and Xanax into his gaping, snoring mouth.
I’m ashamed to admit this, but I actually thought about having him committed to an insane asylum, but quickly dismissed that idea as I was sure the asylum would be full of Trump supporters whose families who had their family member committed.
After a full 30 hours of sleep Nick woke and immediately grabbed for the NYT and WaPo.
Sadly, he discovered that I had shredded both of his favorite news sources and used them for a pseudo-litter box.
He is really pissed off at me, but he’ll get over it once the benzos I dropped into his coffee kick in.
Now, it’s time for me to get into a nice long catnap.

It sounds like Nick needs a mental health day or week....dont we all. But I doubt you'll be able to have that direct conversation with him. Some alternatives to preoccupy him without telling him you preoccupied him:
fake a heart attack
tell him you got your girlfriend pregnant and you need advice
tell him you'll be in your room doing a TikTok challenge
cancel the internet so the streaming doesn't work
run away for a week
You'd need thumbs to fill out all those asylum forms and medical directives... Better off sticking with the benzos to get you both through this GQP shitshow. (sigh)
