  1. "Quite an experience to live in fear, isn't it?"
    --Roy Batty, Blade Runner

    Someone in my extended family just got their U.S. citizenship. They live in a deeply red state with their spouse and child.

    Because it hasn't happened yet, their father-in-law doesn't believe ICE will be a problem in their lives.

    All it takes is one racist asshole making a phone call.

    Ignorance is bliss I guess; until it isn't. And then it's too late.

  2. ?

    I found out that my nephew's wife is getting her US citizenship and I am severely conflicted about what I should say to her.

    Maybe "congratulations" but with a question mark?

  3. Who would have thought the way to re-litigate the outcome of the Civil War was to switch political affiliations en masse to a party more amenable to corruption, misogyny and racism?*

    Sounds simple now that we've seen it applied.

    * I do realize the Democratic party has had their share of liars, cheats and scoundrels but post-civil war, they seemed more common in their criminality; not driven by ideology.

  4. Afternoon rain. Rolling hills, wet fields, a day warmer than one is used to. Adaptation problems. Pondering male stereotypes and annoying imbalances of power and finally resorting to music to cut mind from that. Close to 3pm, still somewhere.

    #Republicans are playing a #deadly game with no #rules, #limits, #ethics, #commonsense, #morailty or #decency. ALL of them, with the exception of a tiny handful, go along.

    Repeatedly, the #GOP has shown it will use any tool at its disposal, including State sponsored #terrorism, threatening the #health, #safety, and basic human #rights of Americans, and against #democracy.

    Democrats mostly wring their hands, make jokes, call names and post insults on the dead bird site.
