"The world is full of darkness. So much is going wrong. Experts agree that America has succumbed to right-wing authoritarianism; call it fascism or something else, these are extraordinarily difficult times.
This post is a break from all of that. At least kind of.
In this piece, I will try and convince you that Doctor Who is the best TV show ever made, explain to you why it matters, and why it’s particularly important in our current context. In a time when cruelty and fear dominate headlines, it’s worth celebrating a show that insists on the power of kindness, intellect, and hope."

I see no Constitutional reason why SCOTUS is precluded from revisiting a prior decision and amending it.
We issue updates for software, why not for decisions?
Yes, it could lead to uncertainties if used more than rarely.
But imagine if the court could re-open the Dred Scott or Korematsu decisions and change the original?
Git hubs could accommodate this.

Trump really seems to prefer misinformation to actual facts. Why else would he have abruptly cancelled thousands of research grants (throwing perhaps 10,000 scientists and their families on the streets).

It’s exhilarating to hear Bernie Sanders speak to a crowd:
his zeal is reflected back in their faces,
his moral clarity is such a relief,
set against the cynicism and resignation of most of the Democratic party’s opposition to Trump and his administration.
Class war is as old as time, but it’s a peculiarity of this age that you rarely hear a politician name it.
“I do,” he tells me. “There is a class war going on. The people on top are waging that war.”
