…let’s face it. There’s AT LEAST another 3 1/2 years left (seeing more and more Trump 28 signs). And I’m already SO sick of it all. I’m tired. Complaining feels good. But you always end up upset yourself when you rant, so there’s even a price for that. I just need a break. I won’t get one. But…🫩.

It is so exhausting. And so upsetting about what ICE and "Alligator Alcatraz" (more like Alligator Auschwitz) are doing to people. Apropos of nothing, notification that a book I ordered is arriving today! It was banned again 😠, this time in Tennessee, so I bought a copy. HB was cheaper than PB! ☺️

BTW. Don’t you LOVE George Takei?! He can be hilarious even when talking about the most serious of issues. Talk about the short end of the stick. The guy’s born Japanese just when Japanese Americans are being rounded up and put in camps. Plus he was gay at a time when it was a career killer.

Yes! 😊 Ever since as Mr. Sulu in Star Trek. I'd seen him in person a couple of times at sf cons years ago. Always great. Recently watched an old episode of Perry Mason bc he was in it. George Takei was 5 years old when he & his family were put in one of those camps.😠 And he's sansei, parents nisei!

Did you ever think you’d see a day where books would be banned in America? And from the crowd that screams FREE SPEECH when they post misogyny, antisemitism, disinformation, racism, conspiracy theories, hate speech, etc.

Books had already been banned in this country, but not to this extent. And usually because of explicit sex and/or violence, not different politics or telling about something bad that happened that they prefer to ignore. Trump has made their "free speech" not just allowed but encouraged.
