"Do I contradict myself?
Very well then I contradict myself,
(I am large, I contain multitudes.)"
– Walt Whitman (from the poem "Song of Myself")
I almost feel like I should apologize for posting a lot about politics, but I am frankly disgusted and horrified by the immense amount of evil, corruption, and cruelty coming from the U.S. federal government. I am ashamed to be a U.S. citizen and want to eventually move to a different country.

It's crazy to me that Animal Crossing Crocs cost $84.99 and the game itself (Animal Crossing: New Horizons) costs $59.99.

Stereolab's October 12, 2025 show in Iowa City was amazing! ❤️

My spouse is no longer eligible for a Federal Pell Grant, but our income did not significantly change between their previous FAFSA application in March and their most recent application this month. This seems sketchy and related to the corrupt Trump regime gutting the Department of Education.

My spouse and I saw #thelastclassfilm with @rbreich.bsky.social on Aug 9 at @icfilmscene.bsky.social. It's an inspiring and touching documentary!

I appreciated Robert’s reminder that leaders are made, not born.

I also purchased Robert’s new memoir (“Coming Up Short”) from @prairielights.com.

Nice! I purchased Robert Reich’s memoir from a local bookstore today.

I enjoyed listening to Reggie Watts, Hamilton Morris, Dennis McKenna, and others speak at Psychedelic Science 2025!

Thousands of Iowans participated in the peaceful #NoKings protest in Iowa City today.

Trump, we all hate you (and your gaggle of corrupt sycophants) for FREE!

The ending scene in "Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace" represents some of the ways (e.g. relief) that I (and many others) will likely feel once Trump is no longer in power. 😌 🎉 ☮️

This morning I rediscovered this awesome Edgar D. Mitchell quote. 🌕 🧑‍🚀 🌎

In 2020, I recorded a Paper Moses song called “Macro” and added audio samples of this quote to the song.
