YOU ARE COWARDS!
PATHETIC ASS-KISSING COWARDS!
The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water
It is a total waste of programmer’s time to change the name for people in the US only
It just makes US look stupid
Here is the real Gulf IN America

Not on the weekend, but I was in D.C. for the inauguration. The only non-Trump supporters we encountered were Canadian and UK reporters. I held a sign reading ‘No Country for Small Hands’ as the motorcade passed. A small act of protest but worth it for me.

I absolutely love Rivka Galchen’s “Everyone Knows Your Mother Is A Witch”. It depicts life in the 1600s in southern Germany through the eyes of Johannes Kepler’s mother and her neighbor when she was put on trial for being a witch. It’s fascinating and damn well written.

I wouldn’t even say it’s Upton’s best the pacing is very uneven and all the characters feel archetypal - that said it is still worth the read simply for the perspective. While not prescient, knowing it was written in 1935 keeps it interesting.

What are your thoughts on Sinclair’s “It can’t happen here”?
