OK, so that's it now. 2026 is officially open season on unfair gerrymandering. Open the gates. Law of the jungle. My fellow Dems will now also increase unfairness in order to defend from the onslaught of GOP unfairness. It did not have to be this way. I'd rather it wasn't.

Before it is forgotten to revisionist history, I want to share this hour-and-a-half synopsis video of the January 6th hearings. It is damning in a deep and comprehensive way, especially considering the majority of witnesses giving testimony are dyed-in-the-wool conservatives.

I’m very sad to find out Bill Moyers has died. His work touched my life deeply over the decades. From his universe-framing interviews with Joseph Campbell to his, um, universe-framing interviews with Neil DeGrasse Tyson. This one hits me.
