being an indie bookseller in the helltimes has felt both very stable and very stabilizing, and part of me wishes everyone could be on my side of the counter for a little while, because I think it would help some of you be a little less cynical and doomy right now. so here is my VERY anecdotal data:

#doge is coming for the libraries. Much like USIP, this is an independent group established by congress. Directors are appointed by the previous director and confirmed by the Senate.
They're going to kill Libby and all your other library book reading apps, programs funded by Congress which the administration (and certainly not Elon or his teen Nazi psychopath goons) has no power to shut down.
Maybe a day to call all your reps again and to demand action

and his suggestion that the public will just rise up hand in hand and magically fix things later on if it gets bad enough is violently delusional

Car radio plays surprisingly aggressive story on Trump ignoring Federal judge. Has audio of ACLU attorney saying “Constitutional crisis.” Think I’m listening to NPR. Nope! It’s CBS radio news on WTOP.
