I unabashedly love this newsletter. Xplisset is indeed one of the Voices of America, the kind of voice that so often goes unheard. He helps those of us who do not share these experiences understand them better. And the writing is superb.

I do, too.
Keep doing what you do best my friend. This is a fine thing that you do. Shine a bright light and erase the darkness of indifference.
