In these days of utter depression,
despair, and one horror after another (Did you hear? The president called the
nonapplauding Democrats at the State of the Union speech “treasonous”), I try
to cheer myself the tiniest bit with a glance at my standing-desk Bernie Sanders action figure, who can’t
make it all better, but damned if the real one hasn’t tried.
I know, I just finished reading an article about how Russia is developing "small" nuclear weapons. Their "smallness" apparently makes them seem more useable, in the sense that some think they'll enable a non-planet-destroying nuclear war. I think we're doomed.
ReplyDeleteI just can't believe how all the things we complained about/fought against in the 1980s (sexism, the Cold War, etc) have come full circle and we're back where we started.
ReplyDeleteThat is one cute action figure! I wonder if they make one for Joe Biden.
