This Elvis Costello lyric hits hard these days:
Man goes beyond his own decision
Gets caught up in the mechanism
Of swindlers who act like kings
And brokers who break everything
Man goes beyond his own decision
Gets caught up in the mechanism
Of swindlers who act like kings

I miss John Lewis.
I even miss John McCain.

Ready Fire Aim is a lousy way to govern.
A good reminder…
In this time of distress, grief, anger, despair, as you figure out your own ways to fight back, don’t forget to take the time to recharge. Find joy in friends, in creative endeavors, in art, nature, a meal. Smile. Laugh. Find comfort. For even brief moments. Share the love.
