    What #KamalaHarris could say today:

    Anyone's who has dealt with a 6-year-old denying — in the face of all evidence — that he pushed his little sister or got into the cookie jar will find the approach of #Rump in defending his alleged mishandling of national security records quite familiar.

  2. #Senators participating in #Senate's #Ticketmaster inquiry took opportunity to quote artists' work in an attempt to create #soundbite and go #viral. #Bipartisan effort by: Democrats #AmyKlobuchar, #RichardBlumenthal and Republican #MikeLee

  3. Most of my thoughts are well over the 500 character limit in Mastodon.

    I wonder if social media is encouraging attention deficit. I know I spent a lot of time and effort in college learning how to be clear and coherent.

    Now people string together shorthand and one-sided statements as if they were discussions.

    The most dishonest people I have met in my life were always fast talkers.

    "His son once said that Kurt Vonnegut lived the rest of his days with undiagnosed post-traumatic stress. He came home from the war and worked regular jobs until his odd, sometimes science fiction-ish novels built a huge following. He became the kind of #writer some kids are assigned in school - not all kids. His books are sometimes banned."
