Why?

Since this is my first post, I'd like to try to explain why I've decided to start writing.

The first few weeks of Trump's second term have been stresful. He's introducing many changes to American life and governance, most of which terrify me. A lot of people, including me, seem to be intimidated.

I understand that no one cares about my political opinions, and I'm not claiming that my feelings are reasonable. But it seems necessary to put something out in the world. Speaking up is useless, but not saying anything is cowardly.

Why blog instead of something else? The big tech companies and their platforms haven't exactly been covering themselves in glory lately, so a self-hosted blog seemed like the way go.

So here we are.
