| Introduction | I'm an amateur who has been reading three publications almost every day since I was 16. My friends, who are very patient human beings, have been pointedly telling me to "shut up and start a blog" for at least that long. This is my attempt to participate in political and social discourse beyond annoying friends and acquaintances in coffee shops. |
