This holiday, as well as Veteran's Day, are supposed to honor soldiers who served and/or died in war, but if I'm going to be solemn and mindful today, it's going to be about the bloodshed in Buffalo and Uvalde. The news gets worse and worse, and by coincidence, this Sunday's episode of The First Lady featured the Sandy Hook massacre during Obama's administration. The killings just go on and on, year after year. And fucking Ted Cruz makes stupid suggestions about one door, secured by armed guards. And we just saw how useless those guards and police were. Republicans are outraged at us for politicizing tragedy when we just want to prevent the next one. Will any of them listen this time, or just continue to dismiss Beto and anyone else trying to speak truth to them? We'll have to vote them out.
Meanwhile, I was on vacation last week but had trouble sleeping. Hotels have too many pillows and not enough blankets. Living out of a suitcase is annoying, so it is good to be home again.
