The irony of the richest man in the world almost single-handedly destroying an agency designed to help the worldβs poor, so that the U.S. federal budget has more room for another giant tax cut for the richest man in the world and his pals, should not be lost on anyone. [Cartoon by Mike Luckovich]

I cannot convince myself to do scheduled writing time daily. I've been told many times that "this is the way." Yet, it simply doesn't feel it works for me. Instead, I write in clumps. However, I see the need for discipline.

It started with CRT. Now, it's DEI. Are longer acronyms difficult to pick on?
Common denominators, yet the scope broadened.
It wasn't enough to go after anti-racism, now let's throw in all diversity and equity. This means LGBTQ, disabled individuals, etc.
