Murphy: "Newsflash: These guys are incompetent. They don't know what they're doing. We hired a weekend Fox News host with no diplomatic or management experience with a checkered personal history of abuse and alcoholism to be our chief national security official. And it's going very badly."

So next time you see a request to email your rep, or call, keep that in mind.

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.
Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

December photo dump. I was sick for like half the month, but we still managed to have some fun. Got away for a few days, rode a train, stayed in a historic hotel complete with a creepy museum in the basement, and celebrated Yule with friends on the Solstice.

Started the new year with a hike and while we were hiking, an enormous tree fell across the only road into and out of the park. I'm taking it as a visual metaphor that this year will present many obstacles but nothing I can't move past... with a little help from a chain saw and some burly men.
