This interview with the great @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social was a "wow" moment for me. Thanks, New York Times and David Marchese.

I couldn't help noticing the question that seemed the most Times-like to me.

Apart from the moral repugnance, this is so revealing of how ignorant conservatives are about poverty. Poor people have to think about money ALL THE TIME. They worry constantly about what everything costs, how to substitute one purchase for another, what bill can be put off until payday, etc.

Strongly encourage all academics, novelists, reporters, bloggers, whatever to just email this account and state that you want to opt out of this idiocy.

Overload them with emails and make them regret they ever tried this shit.

The only goal was and is and will remain that two nearly 80 year old criminals heading two separate countries decided to go to war to keep themselves out of prison.

democrats still seem to be laboring under the delusion that they can introduce stuff to pass while trump is president and they, not trump, will somehow get credit for it. they learned nothing from trump taking credit for covid stimulus checks

Again, the people involved in this, from Elon Musk on down to the lowest level recruits, need to go to jail for a very long time.

It’s pretty crazy that Trump is leading a false criminal investigation into Slotkin and Kelly and they’re still voting to confirm Trump’s NSA director

I don't agree with you. let's leave it at that. i don't enjoy watching digital cartoons for the most part.

movies look better with CGI used sparingly or not at all, in my opinion

How much more evidence do we need? The ultra-rich and the governments supporting them will destroy everything for the sake of profit, power and pride. Nothing is precious to them - not human life, not the living world - except their own wealth and status. Our survival depends on resisting them.

Zardoz commentary track is so funny because every time there's a beautiful pastoral scene Boorman goes "this is right by my house." My man was at home sleeping in his own bed every night, respect.

"Jews don't belong in American society."

Imagine a sitting member of Congress tweeting that. You can't. Thankfully, it'd never happen. And *if* it did, it'd be the end of their career and the biggest story in America.

But Ogles can say this about Muslims without any censure.

It's time for Democrats to stop focusing on issues that only elites care about, like unemployment and the price of gas, and start talking about things that matter to regular Americans, like Black mermaids and the genders of the characters on Paw Patrol.

Your regular reminder that normal, mainstream, pro-democracy political parties do not make restricting suffrage the central pillar of their policy platform

It was always about the grift. This entire administration is about looting as many taxpayer dollars to Trump allies as possible.
