joy is, in many cases, not actually easy. joy is a discipline. we should grieve, and we should get angry, but we should also cling to the Good. every day has at least one spot of joy that you can claw out of it and smuggle away in your pocket. this is what it means to not let sorrow take you.

on some level it's helpful that it's so blatant; nobody claiming ignorance now can be taken as anything but a liar, and anyone still supporting it ostracized.

Trump is making independent spending decisions, one chamber of congress refuses to convene, the other can't muster opposition lasting longer then a few weeks, the highest court in the land is nakedly corrupt, what exactly *is* the Federal Government at this point if not just an illusion of inertia?
