Well, it's been an interesting nine days.
Aside from his anti-fish crusade, previously mentioned in this very gemlog, the new President of the United States has withdrawn the United States from climate agreements, released angry tirades against trans military personnel in executive orders, sent ICE goons into a frenzy of racial profiling resulting in the detention of random Puerto Ricans[1] and Navajo people[2], and attempted to demolish the federal civil service, presumably so it can be replaced with his own crowd of sycophants, including - inexplicably - teenagers.[3]
I don't intend to make non-ecological politics a regular feature of this gemlog, but if I have to, so be it; I'd rather be on record opposing this garbage than sit back and blog about tortoises while people are being harmed by an administration that goes against every moral and religious value I have in my body. My own politics are neither Republican or Democrat; they are off in their own strange little degrowth-socialist zone - but at this point, I would be happy to be counted with anyone that rejects MAGA hate and degeneracy.
I'm a world-class fuckup, and I have serious regrets about many things in my life. I don't want to have to regret that I didn't say anything when my government was gleefully diving into new depths of corruption and cruelty.
