What's going on?

I originally wanted this site to center on politics. More accurately, I wanted to talk about the clusterfuck that the second Trump regime is becoming. But I'm tired. I'm tired of waking up every day to find out what fresh hell Trump's frat house dictatorship has wrought overnight. I'm tired of hearing Trump's lies. I'm tired of seeing Trump's face. And I'm tired of listening to his apologists depending him and of not hearing our news outlets take him to task because the Reagan years shifted the media from serving the public interest to raking in cash to serve their shareholders exclusively.
And I'm afraid. My family, friends, neighbors, and even enemies will suffer, are already suffering.
I catch snippets of the news here and there, but I haven't watched a full newscast since the inauguration because it raises my blood pressure. It's inescapable though, this destruction of the republic I love, and I just don't want to be depressed all the time because of it.
So, for the most part, KnowIt is going to--try to--avoid wallowing in the downfall of America and focus on what's going on elsewhere in my life. Music, movies, books, things that interest me, things that impact me directly.
I hope you'll read it and sometimes enjoy it, but it's OK if you don't. Mahalo.
