Reminds me of the time I read a student essay about how Obama let 9/11 happen.

Threatening universities. Attacking judges. Bullying law firms. Clamping down on free speech.

If it looks like it, talks like it, and acts like it, it is moving toward authoritarianism.

Let’s Hear It for the Teachers! I’ve always had the kind of regard for teachers that others seem to reserve for military heroes, professional athletes, and pop stars.

Kristi Noem in tight athleisure—white top, drawstring grey pants—in front of a prison cell packed with mostly shirtless men. Noem’s hair cascades out of her navy DHS cap. The men appear to be wearing loose white patient pants. Norm wears a heavy gold-and-silver watch. The men’s arms are at their sides or clasped in front, as if they’ve been told to stand at attention. Noem’s cap is pulled low, so we can’t really see her eyes; instead, her face appears comprised mainly of lips. The men’s heads have been shaved; there’s lighting on Noem but they’re in the murk, hard to distinguish from one another.

I showed my wife, a historian, the Kristi Noem video. She said “holy shit!” It’s a lot. A brief thread on bodies. It begins in the alt text below… 1/

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

My Wild Awakening I just spent a weekend with my friend Renea at a “Wild Awakenings” writing workshop taught by Cheryl Strayed (author of Wild and Tiny Beautiful Things) at the Art of Living Retreat Center in the mount...

How can we as writers move from the feeling of powerlessness to power? How can we keep working through the hopelessness we feel as we watch our country/world burn?

Message to My American Viewers YouTube video by Jim's Radio Shop

Just stumbled on this brutal gutpunch of a video:

www.youtube.com/watch?v=aSq6...

I've trained The Algorithm to show me stuff like this— randos working on projects and showing them to you? I've never seen this channel but I've seen a dozen like it. Dude fixes radios. The video is not about radios.

US added to international watchlist for rapid decline in civic freedoms Civicus, an international non-profit, puts country alongside Democratic Republic of Congo, Italy, Pakistan and Serbia

My fellow Americans, we officially hit a new low today.

Thanks to felon Trump’s all out assault on democracy, we are now on a civil rights loss warning list with the Democratic Republic of Congo, Italy, Pakistan & Serbia.

Nonviolent civil resistance is a must!

Dreams Deferred I had every intention of posting once a month on Substack, but.

What dreams, societal or personal, have you deferred? For how long?
For how much longer?

What Ketamine Does to the Human Brain Excessive use of the drug can make anyone feel like they rule the world.

Large amounts of ketamine can make anyone feel like they rule the world. When should Americans start worrying about Elon Musk’s regular use? Shayla Love reports:

How is it that so few veterans and military personnel see the Russia connections in the GOP as a danger? How can this be better communicated?

It really is reasonable to ask how we could possibly ever forgive our fellow Americans for voting for what is happening to us right now and what is going to continue to happen for years and years.

I mean the simple answer would be... we just don't, right? Ever? Because some things are unforgivable?

This is the most dangerous move yet The canary is gasping for air

Last night's Pentagon massacre is much more than realized. Not just firing the black CJCS and first woman CNO but all the senior JAG officers and hiring a man who just joined 3 different crypto firms tied to Kushner and Thiel as Chairman. I did a deep dive into it open.substack.com/pub/fpwellma...
