I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

I’m re-watching Homicide: Life on the Streets for maybe the 7th time now - because I can’t watch the news anymore, I just can’t. And oh what a balm for my soul this show always is. Thank you to all involved with its creation.
