I’ve been ready through @doctorow’s “Makers” for the past several weeks. (I stopped tweeting about it once I was a good way in because joining part way in is very hard).

Tonight, watching the world burn, I struggled with “do I read or do I admit I’m broken??”

1/n
@doctorow Thing is, I had to ask myself, if I didn’t go online and read, what was I going to spend my night doing? Scrolling thru Twitter? Playing Animal Crossing? Both? Probably both. That doesn’t exactly put anything positive into the world.

It is privilege to sit & do nothing.

@doctorow So I did the adult thing and ate an entire pizza and then shovelled myself out of my chair and went to the studio to read.

Tonight we were starting part III of this novel. I had no idea what to expect. The gap between Part I and II and been years.

1 - I’m going to listen to books the rest of the day because the news is hurting my brain.

2 - Folks are talking about how our economy is going to tank in part because we offshored our industry.

3 - I’m going to out myself as a long time dem socialist before continuing.

Back when I started college in 1992, I was an international relations major in @jmcmsu. As part of our election-year course work we read the latest books by @paulkrugman & @RBReich, Bush & Clinton’s economic advisors. This had 3 out of the classroom effects on me.

/1
@jmcmsu @paulkrugman @RBReich 1st impact was perhaps silly. I was so impressed by @paulkrugman’s book that the next time I was in Boston visiting a BF @MIT, I emailed him to ask to meet. He was heading off on a trip himself, but we overlapped at Boston Logan, & he met me, signed my book, & talked Econ.
