I don't think I mentioned it on here, but whatever, here goes. I pivoted from writing to podcasting a couple of months ago, and the show's going well. It's called Screenland, previous guests incl. Muireann O'Connell, Peter McGann, @sweetoblivion.bsky.social, and a few others. New episodes weekly.

I just saw an American ranting about how “Canada showed up late for WWII” and I just can’t even with disgusting lack of eduction, coupled with the rewriting of history to paint Americans as the constant saviour of the universe. So done with all of this lunacy. Just done.

I can no longer see any distinction between "Trumpism" and the GOP. The Republican Party appears to be nothing more than another Trump brand, subservient to anything Trump (or his cronies) wants.

ICE agents in tactical gear chase down and tackle a U.S. citizen in L.A. After realizing he’s American, they just slink away. Their only explanation: “Why were you running?” Probably because two masked men with guns were trying to snatch him.

Louisiana's Ten Commandments law in public schools blocked by federal appeals court
The law went into effect this year, but it’s unclear how many, if any, school districts have begun to comply as litigation could ultimately land before the U.S. Supreme Court.

JUNETEENTH in Harlem. This is what America is about. Perhaps the most American holiday of all, Juneteenth honors the very best of what this country can be. It’s a celebration of the courage to fight for freedom, even when the cost is steep. It’s sad that the president gets angry over this
