Ken Burns on Rogan's podcast to promote "The American Revolution"; they reportedly "talked about the need for heroes." Which put me in mind of Brecht’s comment: “Unhappy is the land that needs a hero.”
Also Anaïs Nin: "Those who see giants are still looking at the world through the eyes of a child."

Here in RI (and elsewhere) it's already called "Buy Nothing Day." The big event locally is a large coat exchange where anyone who needs a winter coat/hat/gloves/scarf can come and pick up a donated one.

Next step: #GeneralStrike
Our confirmed count stands at 8.1 million participants worldwide for yesterday’s No Kings protest. Thank you to everyone who helped verify the numbers through our submission website. While some MAGAs attempted to submit false or misleading data (such as reporting “one person” for major cities)
