I like “Things I Read Today” as a title for this part of my blog. So it’s a category? Is that how to wordpress? Anyway, I like it because it puts that old Beatles’ tune “Things We Said Today” in my head. (As opposed to new Beatles tunes written by Lennon and Harrison, still alive and hiding in the Bermuda Triangle with Elvis.) Today I read about Nazis again, who FOXNews worries might make Hannity viewers reconsider their allegiances; that old fascist Elliott Abrams, who embarrasses even those who try to defend him; and some Vox thoughts on how to deal with artists whose work you love but who are personally awful human beings we should all shun socially.
