I rarely write about US politics on the purple app because Reasons, and that's unlikely to change anytime soon.

But I will say this much.

I hate the Fourth of July, and that's not just because I hate fireworks.

This "beautiful" bill that's just been signed? Bleak.

It's monstrous cruelty. 

And the timing heaps it on even thicker.

There's an unfinished essay in my files called "USA: The Land of Suffering With a Smile." 

I set it aside many years ago because I couldn't edit it without sobbing.

I revisited it this morning. 

Still don't know if I can finish it, but today I'm angry enough that I might try.

Love you for speaking up. Sometimes it feels lonely having humanity in our space. 
Thanks

Appreciate the kind words. I think the purple app is one of very few places it would land this way.
