I’m writing from the perspective of a retired federal employee and mental health clinician disturbed by the abuses of elected officials and betrayal of constitutional principles. I often draw on American history and culture as they apply to current events. I sometimes write about lighter topics and staying sane in a crazy time. I don’t take myself too seriously and I don’t mind throwing some shade here and there.
