Criminal Trump nominates monstrous Gaetz to oversee criminal justice in America.

The Washington Post calls Gaetz an "outspoken ally" of Trump, and the NY Times calls naming him attorney general a "provocative move".

Now THAT is how you normalize the criminals and fascists in charge of the next U.S. government.

Please spend your news dollars on real journalism, not the pathetic drivel these organizations are feeding you.

Good post from @anildash about writing better documents ("resumes or reports, budgets or broadsides"). This part spoke to me:

"Very often, people feel a lot of anxiety about the need to preface their big dramatic point with lots of build-up. But you almost never want to be building dramatic tension in a professional context; this isn't a thriller where you're trying to surprise them with twists and turns."

I'm a bit of a storyteller, and always need to fight this urge!
