Was looking at the swarms of planes flying over the ocean in the night and did some math. Apparently about a quarter of a million people cross the Atlantic every day.

Last time I made the shortest version of this trip I got a horrible migraine and nearly lost my mind. I don't intend to repeat it any time soon...

Toward the end of the Reconstruction era, something very significant happened. That is what was known as the Populist Movement. The leaders of this movement began awakening the poor white masses and the former Negro slaves to the fact that they were being fleeced by the emerging Bourbon interests. Not only that, but they began uniting the Negro and white masses into a voting bloc that threatened to drive the Bourbon interests from the command posts of political power in the South.

To meet this threat, the southern aristocracy began immediately to engineer this development of a segregated society. I want you to follow me through here because this is very important to see the roots of racism and the denial of the right to vote. Through their control of mass media, they revised the doctrine of white supremacy. They saturated the thinking of the poor white masses with it, thus clouding their minds to the real issue involved in the Populist Movement. They then directed the placement on the books of the South of laws that made it a crime for Negroes and whites to come together as equals at any level. And that did it. That crippled and eventually destroyed the Populist Movement of the nineteenth century.

If it may be said of the slavery era that the white man took the world and gave the Negro Jesus, then it may be said of the Reconstruction era that the southern aristocracy took the world and gave the poor white man Jim Crow. He gave him Jim Crow. And when his wrinkled stomach cried out for the food that his empty pockets could not provide, he ate Jim Crow, a psychological bird that told him that no matter how bad off he was, at least he was a white man, better than the black man. And he ate Jim Crow. And when his undernourished children cried out for the necessities that his low wages could not provide, he showed them the Jim Crow signs on the buses and in the stores, on the streets and in the public buildings. And his children, too, learned to feed upon Jim Crow, their last outpost of psychological oblivion.

"What if it's just us? What if we're the only ones? Somebody's got to tell people what's happening back there… One of us has to make it."

My favourite birds are ravens, then woodpeckers, and then chickadees, and that’s only because chickadees are pure chutzpah given wings

The line usually told about chickadees is “They’re so sweet they’ll eat out of human hands,” when the line should be “They’re so full of jackass machismo that they trust us implicitly.” Imagine if some huge, horrible elder god, over twenty or thirty times your height, boiled out of the ocean and held out a hand of chicken nuggets, and you went “Oh fuck yes” and then climbed up the eldritch thing to get to those nuggets

That is how the chickadee do. Magpies scatter, bluejays hide. Chickadees will fucking divebomb you if they think you’re late with the sunflower seeds

I guess the hour of dawn has been shifting later because I accidentally got up before the sun, immediately decided that was not a good idea, and got back in bed for another 15 min.

Reading through the feedback on the novel I wrote last year...and I think it's actually quite good

Meanwhile trying to revise an older project and facing the perennial issue of I am a better writer now than I was when I wrote that so I'm not sure what is salvageable
