In a perfect world every midnight would be silent, every midday bright and full of joy. Every hero would win, every villain would be crushed. But a perfect world this is not. The todays are often unjust and unbalanced, the tomorrows uncertain and unfair.

And yet: There are always tomorrows.
If aliens landed right now, they'd say "take me to literally anyone but your leader".

What infuriates me so much about this new operation is that it is literally punishing people for following the rules and showing up to their court hearings. It is so toxic to the basic concept of following the rules.

It is an operation designed by people who hate the concept of the rule of law.
These people were following the law and went to check in with immigration like they are supposed to.

This woman's immigration case was dismissed, which made her immediately undocumented.

So ICE took her into custody.

The air conditioning was off in the back of the truck.

The company, which supplied the NHS with tens of millions of pounds worth of completely unusable PPE, later went bust, owing taxpayers millions.

Who the fuck does Trump think he is? Telling Ukraine about its territorial concessions without involving it in talks. Telling Europe about its responsibilities without providing any assistance.

To write (not necessarily publish) one novel per year, is that a good goal? #writing #writingcommunity

Very happy with my writing energy this year so far. Psychological thriller draft 4 in progress. Writing every day. Specific publisher in mind. #writing #writingcommunity

Donald Trump is a disrespectful imbecile. I'm disgusted by him.

Am I the only one who writes a novel with a music sountrack in mind? I even have the opening and closing credits themes in my head when writing the first and last chapters #writingcommunity

A two week avoidance of news and current affairs has been a healthy thing for me. I will probably skip January's horror show too.
