Today's piece will be up later tonight.

Made some freelance money today, so that's good.

But mostly, when I went back to a piece I'd written two years ago, I didn't recognize myself in it. I still had such conviction in April 2022 that maybe we could be better.

But we have so many corporate grifters, hawkish nationalists, tribalists, and just plain hurting people lashing out...

The shine is off living in such a world, y'know?

The trick is persevering until something catches the light again.
