I am watching what is happening in Minneapolis on Ali Velshi and one of the ICE officers (off camera) literally says, “It’s like Call of Duty. Pretty cool huh?” as they shoot whatever it is they are shooting. Agents walking around, guns unholstered for no reason. This is insanity

The coffee shop is packed with people. It’s giving out coupons to anyone who donates plasma in the blood center truck outside. A pair of neighbors wait for coffee and fill each other in on the latest ICE killing. A man has to excuse himself to quietly cry in the corner.

A Saturday in Minneapolis.

I have a theory that the general epistemic crisis has led to a lot of very online people getting used to communicating primarily through oughtposting and kind of forgetting how to deal with isposting
people gotta chill out about making normative vs. descriptive claims. it’s tedious to have to specify “of course, I do NOT support fire” if you’re talking about a house burning down.

Hearing of the ICE escalations, my son, Emoji Fortnite looked up from his calculus and paraphrased Cicero thus, "Non nobis solum nati sumus ortusque nostri partem finitimi vindicat."

My wise daughter, Salomé Athena, replied, "Vrai. Un État ne peut être meilleur que les citoyens qui le composent."

If you are anxious and sad about the state of the world, that's fine, and there are plenty of strategies for dealing with that. But I think you already know that drive-by online dooming isn't a strategy. It's selfish and adolescent. It's a contagion that only spreads the worst of you, not the best.

So it's appropriate to arrest a world leader if you consider them criminal? You can just go get them? Just asking questions here.

Imagine being the person brave enough to leak this in the hopes that media attention could stop it and then the media just……buries it.

Our next podcast is coming soon - it's currently playing in competition at the Thessaloniki Film Festival. We haven't talked about it much so far, but we will start soon. It's hugely ambitious, an enormous production, and born out of our deep love for HP Lovecraft.
