“The children are always ours, every single one of them, all over the globe; and I am beginning to suspect that whoever is incapable of recognizing this may be incapable of morality.”
James Baldwin
I remembered enough Old English to understand what was going on right to the end, but several words were lost on me. I felt pretty good about it, since it's been almost 15 years since I studied the language.
Just woke up even angrier. Impeach, convict, remove. Draft articles now. Either we have a representative government or we don’t. Do not shut up about this until there’s a vote.
And here I stand both to impeach and purge
“I am so bored by AI. One of the things I love about the theatre is AI can’t do it.”
Ethan Hawke is a dude 👌🏻
My cousin recently came to visit and gifted me your game. I said, "but who would ever play this with me?" They insisted we play it right away and I do believe that was the one and only time. I loved it.
They lost me a long, long time ago, tbh.
If you missed this, I’d like you to read it, and then share it with folks in your life who likely don’t know this story about AI and teen suicide.
I'm so embarrassed to admit that TIL Brand New Cadillac was a cover.
I'm a teacher, and I have my work email on my phone but notifications turned off, since I get a couple dozen emails a day. It's there if I need to access it, but I can't look at every single email the moment they arrive.
Watching all these centrist pundits stress the “civility” of Charlie Kirk’s style without addressing the ugliness of his substance is giving me a renewed appreciation of how the civil, polite White Citizens’ Councils conned the same crowd into thinking they were distinct from the cruder Klan.
Joseph Goebbels Was Practicing Politics the Right Way
his father was unavailable for comment
The same Supreme Court that said it is unreasonable to consider race when giving kids access to education, has said it's reasonable to consider race when looking to remove someone from the country.
Funny how that works.
Lethal force against a civilian vessel in international waters is a war crime if not in self-defense. If not in self-defense, only non-lethal actions, such as warning shots or disabling fire, are allowed.
"Not yielding to pursuers" or "suspected of carrying drugs" doesn't carry a death sentence.
"Why should I care about U.S. Space Command being transferred to Alabama? I hate the military-industrial complex. We spend too much money on defense. Why does it matter which rich people get richer off it?"
There are a number of reasons you should care, but you really only need one.

Chile is one of the safest places for LGBTQ+ to reside. They have some of the worlds strongest anti discrimination laws.
Green Day plays Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen right before they hit the stage.
Here are 50,000 Chileans losing their shit this past weekend.

This is Thanos. He has figured out how to rest and babysit at the same time. Very impressive, very Montessori. 13/10 (TT: thanosthesaint)
When you’re having trouble with your DUI field test…
there need to be laws against all behavior i don't like. why yes i do believe in less government why do you ask.
Men need to speak up more about how RIDICULOUS it is that public spaces force women to wait eons for the bathroom — while men pop in and out. At intermission, theaters flash the house lights and fill my female friends and family with anxiety as the women’s lines remain serpentine.
Ursula Le Guin: “The shift from denial of injustice to recognition of injustice can’t be unmade.... Once you see the injustice, you can never again in good faith deny the oppression and defend the oppressor. What was loyalty is now betrayal. From now on, if you don’t resist, you collude.”
If the nation’s capital can be occupied by the military for entirely make-believe reasons, understand that this can happen anywhere: at schools & universities, polling places, religious spaces, etc. Nowhere that we work, live, & love will be safe if this is allowed to continue.
I just can’t believe our Reichstag Fire is the Big Balls Beatdown.
I've lived most of my life in Montana and Idaho. I fully support combining them with both Dakotas, Wyoming, and Utah into one big dumb state with two senators.
We are ruled by absolute ghouls.
There are so many intolerable things happening all at once that it'simpossible to know where to focus, but this is insidious.
I only knew about it because of this incredible poem:

Do you know how much CEO pay has skyrocketed since 1978?
100%? 500%?
Try 1,085%
Meanwhile, the $7.25/hr fed. minimum wage hasn't budged in 15 years and the tipped min. wage has been $2.13/hr since 1991.
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.
Well, well; there’s one yonder arrested and carried to prison was worth five thousand of you all.
