Inflaming and provoking violence and division and threatening to deploy military resources against your own people is not a show of strength — it’s abuse of power and a sign of leadership without a moral compass or regard for the law. We are a democracy. We stand strong. You cannot intimidate us.

Just watched Nickel Boys (it's on Amazon Prime). Such a beautiful film. I'm sure I'll start breathing again in a day or two.

I posted The Staircase by Léger. The museum's context (in alt text) discusses WWI's impact on the kids sent to fight. When haven't "these kids today" not been furious about the world they were handed? It's the only way we move forward.
