This is a beautiful story.
Sometimes, when things are rough and the world feels heavy, it helps to imagine a future where we have crushed these sons of bitches and are left to the actual business of constructing a world that we deserve and is fundamentally kind and good.
🔥 @grahamformaine.bsky.social : “Watching people who have no idea what any of this looks like or feels like disgusts me… saying we just need to be prepared for more casualties because ‘that’s what happens’ — it’s not what fucking happens to THEM, it’s what happens to US.”
I think about this Tony Benn speech much more than I used to

Me, first time I've spoken all meeting:
The question of our time is how do you artistically rebel — and win — against a totally flat cultural landscape? And before my readers, who I assume are all approximately 36 years old and very tired, say, “so what, who cares?” This does matter. I mean, just look around right now lol. You know things are bad when even OpenAI President Greg Brockman is posting stuff, like “Taste is a new core skill.” If people had taste, your company wouldn’t exist, Greg. But if everything is just attention now, and attention is completely commodified by algorithmic tech platforms, how can you push back against that? Well, I am slowly coming around to a theory on the new cool: You have to essentially pre-deplatform yourself. Culture right now is determined not by human teams of editors and producers picking and choosing what youth culture gets the spotlight, but, instead, by the unthinking algorithms that power YouTube and TikTok. Which means the only things that have the level of scarcity and danger required to be seen as cool by young people will, slowly, but surely, be whatever is unacceptable on those platforms.
A post so smart I'm almost afraid to share it.

IF YOU'RE UNEMPLOYED IT'S NOT BECAUSE THERE ISNT ANY WORK JUST LOOK AROUND: A HOUSING SHORTAGE, CRIME, POLLUTION; WE NEED BETTER SCHOOLS AND PARKS. WHATEVER OUR NEEDS, THEY ALL REQUIRE WORK. AND AS LONG AS WE HAVE UNSATISFIED NEEDS, THERE'S WORK TO BE DONE. SO ASK YOURSELE, WHAT KIND OF WORLD HAS WORK BUT NO JOBS. IT'S A WORLD WHERE WORK IS NOT RELATED TO SATISFYING OUR NEEDS, WORLD WHERE WORK IS ONLY RELATED TO SATISFYING THE PROFIT NEEDS OF BUSINESS. THIS COUNTRY WAS NOT BUILT BY THE HUGE CORPORATIONS OR GOVERNMENT BUREAUCRACIES. IT WAS BUILT BY PEOPLE WHO WORK. AND, IT IS WORKING PEOPLE WHO SHOULD CONTROL THE WORK TO BE DONE. YET, AS LONG AS EMPLOYMENT IS TIED TO SOMEBODY ELSE'S PROFITS, THE WORK WONT GET DONE.

Congress has the power to subpoena witnesses, hold public hearings, and establish an independent commission to review the Epstein files.
What remains unclear is whether lawmakers have the political will to use those tools.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.
I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.
The goal here is martial law. It’s martial law. Let’s be clear about that.
This agency is out of control if leadership is no longer checking violations of constitutional rights. Congress absolutely must step in before more people are kidnapped/killed.
🚨 Special counsel Jack Smith:
“President Trump was by a large measure the most culpable and most responsible person in this conspiracy. These crimes were committed for his benefit. The attack that happened at the Capitol…does not happen without him”
I dunno, always thought your pieces on The Drive stood out.
The Trump regime in a nutshell: gut critical programs, cause devastating harm, celebrate doing so, and lie about causing harm.
The cruelty is endless.

This is a sketch of a Borneo Oliphant, #7 on the Periodic Table. DNA evidence points to this oliphant as having become genetically different from other oliphants after wandering away from its cousins on the mainland 3,000 centuries ago. The smallest of the subspecies, Borneos have long tails that may touch the ground, larger ears, and straighter tusks. They are also remarkably tame. The population has declined by more than half over the last three generations.
