Cannot stop thinking about how Octavia Butler wrote a book in 1993 about climate change. It opens with deadly fires in LA in 2025. In the story, a fascist President has just won office with the campaign slogan "Make America Great Again."

Plenty of pundits are telling us “cheer up, Trump’s all hot air. He doesn’t really mean it.” History is littered with such self-deceptions, and they don’t age well. In fact, these confident chin-strokers have often proved to be a major part of the problem.
