Really getting tired of these “JUDGE RULES TRUMP ADMIN DOING XYZ WAS ILLEGAL” like the news is going to change the abhorrent abuse of the Constitution. Our spineless politicians won’t do jack about it.

Dear Americans, welcome to the thrilling game of ‘Did this dictator die or just disappear for a day?’ We’ve been playing it with Putin and Lukashenko for decades. Enjoy the suspense.

Each book in the Dark Tower series just draws you in harder doesn't it? I just finished book 5 recently, things get real crazy.

It does! They also make me want to reread The Stand!

My only optimistic scenario for the planet, at this point, is a sentient lifeform (who has their shit sorted out) visiting us and taking over the reins until we can all learn to play nice. Earth needs a timeout. :P (I just pray they are nice aliens!)

I’m not sure I understand your statement. It reads more like a fallacy. “X is white. White voters vote for fascists. Therefore, X must have voted for fascism.”

I’ve taken a break from non-fiction this month—I must say—totally worth it. I adore my history books, but the allure of fiction has me in its grasp. I suspect the pull is enhanced from writing my Sci-Fi novel. Reading books makes it easier(?) better(?) at writing them? I am a layman among giants…
