I am working these days on a change to Zeitwerk that will remove a hack.

To sum up, a US president is going to war without congressional authorization against a sovereign nation that has not attacked or threatened it, and is doing so like a thief in the night, with no explanation for the American people or the world. It is all so unimaginable that it strains credulity.

For the next year, I wish you to get back to the helm. To stand firmly at the reins of your actions, feet on the ground. I wish you purpose. I wish you meaning. I wish you to get off the hamster wheel. I wish you the luxury of choice. I wish you intention.
