This is literally what I've been writing and podcasting about for years. I was planning to do an essay on this, but here's a 🧵.

Fight and help win a world war.
Establish a global order that cements your national power for 80 years.

The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad it’s the left’s fault, and if the right does something bad, it’s also the left’s fault for making them do it. It’s a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same

I've watched thousands of videos from the Jan. 6 riot as part of NPR's reporting and archive project on that day.
Here are some of the lesser known videos that have really stuck with me.

A thread of how to say “nobody asked you” from around the world, starting with this one…
A Lithuanian way of telling someone to mind their own business is ne tavo kiaulės, ne tavo pupos. It means “not your pigs, not your beans.”

Hey @goldwagnathan.bsky.social i don’t know if this is an unreasonable ask, but would you be willing to point me towards where i can learn more about a) the Martyr Fund and b) the experience of arab israelis?

I have written pretty extensively about what policies I'd like to see in regards to Israel/Palestine, I am happy to condemn anybody you want me to if the US is willing to impose an arms embargo on Israel until they agree to a settlement freeze.

It is not just that SCOTUS is weakening Congress by giving its powers to Trump; it is also weakening other parts of the judiciary.
It is overturning decisions in a fashion it did not do under Biden (hat tip to @adambonica.bsky.social for the graph).

not doing the official new york times thing, but if you're curious what my 10 favorite movies of the last 25 years are they are these plus a bunch of honorable mentions.
don't ask me why your favorite movie didn't make my list, the answer is probably "haven't seen it"

This is why you gotta stick with the GOATs - Sandra Boynton, Taro Gomi, Mo Willems. Too many fly by night operations ruining bedtime.
It’s amazing how many kids’ picture books seem to get published without anyone ever once reading them out loud. Just total meter/rhythm fails.
