I typically scroll right past screenshots of unhinged Trump posts. It's low-effort ragebait and like-farming.
We should be talking solutions rather than climbing further into this pit of national despair.

I would be totally fine if Trump's name were redacted from EVERYTHING. Buildings, books, his likeness, his name, the human consciousness...all of it. Just him erased from all history for all time to come.

No matter how much we complain on the Internet, Trump will not go. Internet outrage feels like a release, like the void we shout into hears our pleas and someday we will finally get what we want.
But guess what? It won't happen until we make it happen.

What if instead of every newspaper selling subscriptions on their own site, their articles were hosted on a central site that charges a modest fee for access to many publications? Surely someone's tried this before. Make it easy, make it simple.

Requiring foreign visitors to hand over 5 years of social media isn’t “security,” it’s unchecked government control.
