So many other concerns but also every piece of written communication from this government makes me, your friendly neighborhood editor, worry I’m having a stroke

Why is his name in quotation marks man what does he think this does?!

Oh

I believe this is what cleverer people than me would dub “American parochialism”

Been wandering sleepily on a long layover around Frankfurt airport all day today wondering vaguely why it has such a disproportionate density of hot dog stands until I stopped and took a big sip of coffee and —

It’s already happening. Iran attacked a desalination plant in Bahrain.

This war has to end immediately. If it turns into a water war we will be dealing with a whole different level of a humanitarian catastrophe across the region.

America built its superstructure to pickle everyone else's brain in US hegemony and then we fully pickled our own

"why did you become a writer" because no one gave a shit about my special interests growing up. now i make them everyone else's problem. next question

This gives us constant opportunities to weaken fascism's ideological edifice with even simple displays of divergence of thought or action and it's also why principled refusal of attempts to find common ground is key.

I think the danger is that fascism's opponents take this kind of cultivated mass gaslighting at face value and think that fascists actually **have** no theory of mind. They do, they just refuse to acknowledge it for ideological reasons.

This is a really important weakness because fascism is predicated on imposing and maintaining a uniform delusion, which is an extremely costly and difficult thing to do!

Fascist logic cannot openly validate any kind of strategizing on the basis of theory of mind because the whole of the body politic is imposed on and substituted for all its parts.

Overweening pathetic male insecurity getting us to literal Armageddon was supposed to be a provocative joke you guys not a prediction

Good morning

Spent most of the night just waiting for my mum to get to the airport and leave (which she did thankfully) while hearing that Hazmieh, where most of my family lives, was bombed by the Israelis who have also been bombing Dahieh, which borders the airport, non-stop all night.
