The GOP spent decades banging on about freedom. Now they are sucking up to tyrants and dictators in the most cringeworthy way. Sen John McCain stood in awe of the Ukrainian people, Sec Rubio is selling them out for pocket lint. This is all wrong. #DemVoice1 #NAFO #SlavaUkraine

"In less than a month’s time, Rubio has presided over America’s willing abdication as leader of the free world. It’s a shameful legacy that cuts against everything he once proclaimed to stand for." There are no good Republicans. They ALL bend the knee to king. www.publicnotice.co/p/usaid-dest...

How to write: Stop not writing. Keep your butt in the chair. Write really bad small sections of the whole—passages, moments, episodes, memories—til you have an incredibly shitty 1st draft. Then take out the boring parts, the lies and pretensions. Then write a better 2nd draft.
