I am begging y'all to read more fiction. Read to imagine new worlds and new opportunities. Read for any other reason than to distill key insights. Read to feed your soul.

This might fly with folks who have never been to the WH or seen the security apparatus that surrounds POTUS—ESPECIALLY when a foreign leader is present—but this is almost impossible. This reporter would have been let through multiple layers of security to end up in the Oval.

I had a wonderful time presenting at the 2025 HGSA Conference. My presentation, “Present Threats and Future Frontiers: Popular Science Fiction Franchises and American Militarism during the Cold War, 1961-1991,” looked at Star Wars, Star Trek, Marvel Comics, and DC Comics.
