Over a handful of years I had made over 3500 posts, and then one day I stopped. I had found other means of expressing my thoughts. But after years of ignoring this blog, I've decided it's time to restart blogging. A big reason why I've come back is because the left-of-center pundit, Kevin Drum, passed away. I had been using the comment sections of Mother Jones and then his personal blog to engage with other people and exchange ideas. It was a lot of fun and I learned many things about myself and how others think. Bereft of a generous space to express my thoughts, and while I prefer using Write Freely, it felt time to come back to an old friend.
Upon returning, I deleted all 3500+ (😱) posts; it's nice to start fresh with a clean, new blog. I'm going to skip writing about me and focus on singling out current events deserving a perspective beyond what the media has written/said.
So, hello world. Again.

To my lurkers -- you know who you are -- hope you enjoy!
