An Edward Gorey illustration of gothic Edwardian figures in winter gear lining up to trim a Christmas tree. There are two adult men and two adult women, and two children, all holding ornaments. The adults are black and white; the children and the ornaments are in color—reds, greens, golds only. At the front of the line is an alligator, green and standing on his face legs like people, delicately placing a red ornament on a Christmas tree that’s partially visible the corner of the image, and already partially trimmed. The people seem to be waiting patiently for the alligator to finish. There is a grand house behind them in the distance.

My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

The DOJ released a memo--the day after World AIDS Day--ordering prisons to enable the rape of incarcerated trans women.

The State Department also banned recognition of World AIDS day.

Prison rape, on top of the lifelong trauma, often leads to HIV transmissions.

It's not hard to do the math.
