Those who seek to rise to power quickly often promote mistrust between people, causing our world to suffer. As ordinary people, we can choose to ignore messages that divide us and instead amplify voices that bring us together. While division may be like a passing wind, global unity carries the force of a mighty storm.

The world according to #Trump: The Pacific Ocean is now the American Ocean. The Moon is now the America. The Planet Earth is now Planet America. The Milky Way is now called the American Way. The entire Universe is now called the entire America. Oh yay. What an ass he is.

I wonder how many people are like me, lying in bed trying to sleep but so pissed off at Trump that all they can do is lay there and seethe. And I'm a lifelong conservative. A true conservative doesn't rename the Gulf of Mexico. Oh pshaw.

Trump has decreed that everything in the world is now called #America

So bizarre that Elon pulled a heil Hitler salute at Trump's inaguration.

Tariffs are a great way to start a global recession.

Exquisite prose won't fix a bad story, but a good story will fix bad writing. Who cares about weak writing when the story is good? Nobody. #amwriting

"Call me to bed each states with yaw." A complete chapter from a book by Patrick O'Brian I was reading in my dream. #dreamreading

I love it when I start a book and realize I'm in the hands of an expert. Not boring, embarrassing, or annoying but exciting, surprising, and even enchanting. Maybe one in twenty books, if I'm lucky. #amreading

The library, on the other hand, has no biases. The information is all there for you to interpret. You don’t have someone telling you what to think. You discover it for yourself. - Ray Bradbury

The main problem with quitting #pot is that you realize how boring TV really is.

Dreamt of a "peckinshaw," the little indentation that forms in the point of a recently sharpened pencil lead.

Just read my first article which left off saying A.D. for years following Christ's death. What a great idea! They continued to indicate B.C. years, of course, but once you do that, why even mess with A.D.? How refreshing, to see them say 19, and that's all!

@arleigh I do. I love your tweets!

Nothing beats the sound of a wood chipper grinding away twenty feet from your window while you're trying to nap.

Had a dream I was writing an article about how the #gays were going to save America. They were going to rise up and teach us the true lesson and value of authenticity, how America could finally become true to itself. Had some cool ideas for names. The artwork was gorgeous.
