Blog About:
Not long ago it was suggested that people should quit blogging about political matters. The suggestion went on to opine that if a person wanted to make a political point that should be done through fiction. . .which is the mission of this site.
I’ve always enjoyed a good dystopian story such as Nineteen Eighty-Four, Handmaid’s Tale, Brave New World, Animal Farm, Hunger Games, Welcome to the Monkey House, or Atlas Shrugged.
Those are great stories about society run amok.
I’ve written a number of not-so-great stories that I’ve posted here that fit neatly into this genre. Given the politics of today that is ever-increasingly making trans issues into a football, these stories are as topical today as they were when I wrote them.

Well given
Your advice is well given. And I am one who needs to take that advice. It's just that the current political climate has me triggered. It's hard not to feed the beast.
Excuses are not the same as doing the work. And ranting on a story site is not as effective as almost any real world action.

Your Post
Your post the other day of the Carlos Maza rant was perfect. I sent it to quite a number of people. Thanks.

Safe space
I tend to use this blog area as a "safe space". I know that it is not truly safe. It is not safe in the sense that a psychologist or counselor's office is safe by professional obligation. Still there are lots of very smart and sensitive people who spend time here who share a particular cluster of life experiences. I value that participation, as well as the advice and commentary I see.
Since communities are defined by their membership, and membership here is claimed by those who participate, I'm happy to help build a community where we can share our thoughts and ideas within and around our experiences of the world. If only in my small way.
Jill, Thanks for your comment above.
