PhD from LIU

A Phone Degree from Look It Up.

An education gained not in school but through addiction to the smartphone. The reflex to Look It Up, in the face of any unknown fact, is the giveaway of a 21st century autodidact.
The professor seems to have her doctorate and then some, but watch closely for three minutes and you'll see's got a PhD from LIU.

turning 21

The age at which a person, and America, are due to attain maturity.
After four crazy years, during which so much happened that she knew she'd later be ashamed of, she was ready. "21" was shiny with promise, and turning 21 in '21, she and the country were eager to put it behind them.

daze of the week

Trying to remember what day this is, in the locked-down, shut-in, stay-at-home world.
Was it Wednesday, Monday, Thursday? With nowhere to go, no one to see, they all became daze of the week.

hope

An aspiration, a vision, a concept of betterment - the thing we cannot live without, the most essential element in the human spirit.
As 2020 ended, as 2021 shone with promise, there was reason for hope and much to hope for. Regained dignity for America, a life where everyone could once again move freely, could smile and touch, could breathe together without fear.

Zoommates

Two or more people who regularly share online Zoom meetings.
They could no longer meet in class, or in the office, but after weeks of online meetings they felt like Zoommates.

wrydyllic

Perfect in every way, no foolin'.
Describing her wrydyllic Hollywood upbringing, with her famously absent, movie-star father, her alcoholic mother's three-day orgies that allowed her no place to hide, her joyous hitch-hiking escape up the coast to Haight-Ashbury at 14, she kept a straight face and slight smile, the better to confound her interviewer.

A phrase often heard as 2020 nears its end and people are forced to acknowledge some very strange things.
To have the family home for Thanksgiving would be suicidal, and I never thought I'd be saying this.

I never thought I'd be saying this, but we came within an inch of losing our democracy.
