As a Pennsylvanian, it was great to be riding in an old Philadelphia-built tram car while visiting Christchurch, NZ.

Periodically, I hear some complain that we need to reintroduce civics education in schools even though it has never left.

Teaching civics isn't enough. We need to teach information literacy. The Capitol riot proved it | Opinion • Pennsylvania Capital-Star
It was not a lack of civics education that fueled the insurrection; it was a lack of the ability to discern fact from fiction, fact-based opinions from opinions based on deliberate disinformation.

Today is the 83rd anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor, plunging the U.S. into a struggle against authoritarianism and fascism. I never imagined that we would be facing that evil again, especially domestically.

My humans bought this paint by number kit from Michael’s today. It says it is a Golden Retriever, but it is actually a Ducktoller. You have no idea how often I am mistaken for a Golden, and Michael’s is not helping.

I don’t think a criminal should be president.
I don’t think a rapist should be attorney general.
People like that should be in prison.
If that makes me a radical leftist lunatic, then yeah, call me that. Whatever.
