When someone who seems cool and interesting follows me, I follow back because I like to be in community with cool, interesting people.
But now every time I do it, I know that I'm being bad and improper in the censorious eyes of the labelers bc I follow too many ppl.
Which just makes it more fun.

Terry Pratchett in a blue jacket and Akubra hat holding a young owl for release.
Eleven years since you crossed the black sands. I wish I could say that the world is better than you left it (although it will always be better for having had you in it) but at least there is a new Young Sam to help carry on the Pratchett name and ethos. Love you always β€οΈ

The fact is what Trump is doing can't be truly fixed - especially not in the sense of just trying to roll back the clock.
The best we can hope for is building something new to replace it and that something new may have very little resemblance to what once was. And that's a generational project.

TRANSCRIPT OF CARTOON
This cartoon has four panels, all showing a woman in her thirties in a modest but nice apartment.
PANEL 1
The woman pulls back a curtain, looking at the darkness outside.
CAPTION: "Negin" - not her real name - lives in Tehran.
NEGIN: The situation is so frightening it's hard to describe. Smoke has covered the city. I have severe shortness of breath and burning in my eyes and throat, and many others feel the same.
PANEL 2
Negin turns away from the window and speaks directly to us.
NEGIN: I ask those who have the ability, especially foreign media, to reflect on this situation. What are people supposed to do under these conditions?
PANEL 3
Negin speaks angrily.
NEGIN: If someone has a problem with the Islamic Republic government, that's one thing - But not with us, the people! This is no longer just a human rights violation.
PANEL 4
Negin sits on the sofa, slumping and looking down.
NEGIN: It is truly anti-human behavior.
A footnote below the cartoon says "Dialog quoted from "Dark Like Our Future," The Guardian, march 8 2026."

In the meantime, a lot of people will pretend that the anger at establishment Democrats is only from outsiders who just want to spoil the party, instead of from people who are basically the ones who have been showing up and doing the work year after year.

We play a "does it compost?" game at lunch and sing a special compost song when we put the scraps in the spinner outside and we read compost books and I think I'm dragging as least two school families along with us to the county compost pile this weekend

The thing about beating the shit out of everyone at a protest is it tends to make people stop protesting for a while so if democratic administrations want people to be able to protest republican ones then the democrats should stop beating the shit out of people

π Never Post! When The Taliban Turned the Internet Off in Afghanistan
Contributing producer and Kabul-based journalist Ali Latifi tells the story of a roughly 48-hour period, at the end of 2025, when the Taliban turned off the entire internet in Afghanistan.β

When authoritarian governments (and some democratic ones) want to hide from the world, they turn off the internet. Iran is doing it right now. Israel does it to Palestine. In this weekβs @neverpo.st, contributing producer Ali Latifi tells the story of an internet shutdown in Afghanistan last year:

I think this is the problem *behind* the problem folks are talking about when they talk about 'green screen' / 'bad CGI' β green screen & bad CGI seem to create options but really they remove actors' and directors' options to *embed characters' cognition in scene*

To give a little side-craft lesson about what I mean here when I say 'clunky writing'βlet's say this is your *goal*, to write a space-wizard-action serial for kids (& kids-at-heart) with real political depth (for the genre). This is a subtle and interesting and worthy task! So: how?
