I don’t know what we do. I don’t know if there’s anything to do without leaders. Maybe we all just ride this plane into the ground. Maybe this is so common a feeling in authoritarian countries it’s almost insulting to feel like I’m experiencing something extraordinary.

Since we’re all talking about Greenland and Canada now would be a good time to remind people that Puerto Rico and Washington, DC actually should be added as the 51st and 52nd states.

Here is my write up in @thenation.com about yesterday’s awful anti-trans hearing at SCOTUS.
