Very fond of found objects and odd ephemera. Like, say, a discarded file cabinet full of old report cards.

"It’s said that the past is another country, but that’s not a metaphor to the Right. They believe that country’s there and they can get to it.

It’s not childish to believe that there were things that were better when you were young and it would be a good thing if we could get those things or at least some of those things back. It’s childish to believe that because things were better for you when you were a kid they must have been better for everybody else. It’s infantile to believe that all those things that were better for you can be gotten back and the way to bring them back is whine and complain and scream and blame others and vote for orange-skinned weepers who promise they can get them all back at you at no cost and with no sacrifice.

The Right honestly seems to believe that the country is a thing like a toy that has been unfairly taken away from them."

I stand in the face of my google-able past and laugh.
