   Most Americans—though, frankly, fewer these days than ought to—understand, at least in an abstract sense, that Nazism was bad.

   That knowledge isn't abstract for me. It's family history. It's concrete and PERSONAL. The resurgence of Nazi thought, rhetoric and tactics floods me with rage. 3/10

     My father spent the first dozen years of his life living under right-wing authoritarian rule and its aftermath … and I'll be damned if I'll allow that to happen to my daughter.

     Everything—EVERYTHING—takes a backseat to that for me.

     So this year's elections mean a lot. 2/10

     Most of you probably follow me because I'm a voice in TTRPGs, and I'll get back to talking about that soon, I promise. But there's something about me you need to know.

     My father was born in Germany in 1940.

     My daughter was born in 2018. 1/10
