Ok peeps, it’s official: verden er af lave. Men modgiften til kaos er god litteratur. Som AOC skrev: der er også modstand i glæde.
1. bog i min #20bookchallenge er lidt snyd, for her er 4 romaner i 1. VW viste mig for 30+ år siden, at modstand og skønhed i sproget er forenelige størrelser

2.2 billion gallons of water flowed out of California reservoirs because of Trump’s order to open dams | CNN
There are two major problems with Trump’s order, water experts said: The water will not flow to Los Angeles, and it is being wasted by being released during the wet winter season.

Det sidste, jeg har skrevet i min kommende, indtil videre titelløse roman om at miste en bror. Jeg er ca. 2/3 del færdig … og her rammer jeg muren hver gang. Alt håb siver ud af tasterne. But this too shall pass. Altid.
Mit bedste skriveråd: det er en del af processen.

So now it’s about saving American lives? 🤔
Could this be because this won’t actually benefit the American economy and the American consumers after all?
If I had voted for Trump to make America more affordable again I think I would be pretty, let’s say disappointed, to put it mildly.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.
