What happens to cities when anti-urban, anti-diversity forces take over at the federal level? We need to think about this.
Is the republican party a death cult?

Whitmire @WarOnDumb is among the best gifts I got from my short interlude in Birmingham. The others are all food related.
I just finished my first graduate class. It's been almost 30 years since I got my BA. Low A high B is my guess. I have one class to go. Due midnight on Saturday. I need an inspiring musical interlude.
