Khnum, Khnum, Khnum...

Like many people, I more or less just hunkered down yesterday and tried to completely ignore the news. Look, I get it, but in my view, there is nothing left to be said about it all. What you believe about January 6th says more about you than it does about what happened that day. If you love Trump, it was a protest. if you hate Trump, it was an insurrection. You’re both nuts, but please, continue with your ridiculous ideological purity tests to determine whether I am worthy of being allowed to vote for your candidates. Instead, I spent the day studying various things and the lesson that one of them taught me reminded me of one of my favorite Professors mantra about learning things. It was a titanic shift in my understanding of events and, consequently, my understanding leapt forward. Today, I see something that I had “known” my entire life entirely differently. And maybe someday, when people start actually thinking again, January 6th will be relegated to the dump heap of events, where it actually belongs.
