First, a small links update… the amazing blog Dudes in Trouble got shut down by google. But I’m happy to report that he is back at toughdudesintrouble.blogspot.com. I’ve updated the link I have to him here.
With the current state of politics, I’ve noticed that a lot of social media (especially twitter) has become highly political. I totally understand why, and I do have some strong feelings about it myself. I feel Trump is an abomination for President, and worry a lot about the direction of this country. He’s done many despicable things, and chosen to surround himself with some highly unqualified people who many do terrible damage to basic human rights and sensibilities.
But that said, I just really don’t want to get into it much here. To me, this blog and all that goes with it is meant as escapism. A much needed distraction. So I choose to stay out of it, aside from my small rant above.
Absolutely nothing wrong to those who do want to share their political views. I encourage it, and I hope it spreads the word. These are important issues. But so are more simple pleasures.
