It’s hard to be optimistic when every water-supplied appliance fails. It’s even harder when you keep hearing something new everyday that makes you wonder what alternate reality you’ve inadvertantly stumbled into. Ridiculous laws go into effect. Funding is cut for worthwhile media while huge steaming piles of shitmedia proliferate. The FBI is harassing people and getting away with it.
I was too young during the Reagan years to fully grasp all that was going on. I had glimpses of it through the eyes of people like Berke Breathed and Jello Biafra. I get the feeling now that it’s infinitely worse.
