The wars haven’t started yet.

China circles Taiwan.
Russia bleeds in Ukraine.
The U.S. tests Venezuela.
Greenland is reframed as “strategic.”
Europe steels NATO.
Gaza is emptied.
Autocrats watch and learn.

THE GREAT GAME INCREASES ITS STAKES
26,000 game industry workers laid off. Not a market correction — a strategy.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
I have to remember that things can get better, even if right now, they look like they're getting worse.

Fortunately the Second Amendment wasn't injured except through irony. Who knew just how much tumult this event was going to unleash? Read the news since then. Be amazed.

I wonder how many writers self-select and self-destruct because the industry is overrun with gatekeeping paradigms and selective framing which salutes only the people who look like they belong there. This was introspection not an interrogation.
I'll see myself out.
