generations from now, it’ll be an unbelievable factoid passed around like an urban legend: that the 22nd century’s Pulitzer record-holder and internationally prestigious journal… used to be a glossy pop culture mag full of cologne ads and listicles about celebrity dogs
People Magazine is incredibly clear eyed about ICE being a terrorist organization. I’ll probably buy a subscription because of it:

so I’m sitting here thinking I could use a bookcase of a very specific size, and *poof* there’s a vintage one on FB marketplace for $100 - which can’t possibly be correct, because I recognize the label; but this nice lady shrugs at me and says she knows, they’re moving to MN, it’s mine if I want it

For the evangelical crowd: “I’m a big fan of Jesus’s hot take that people should recognize His followers because of their love for everyone + assistance to anyone in need, but you do you, I guess.”
One of the most effective responses I give to MAGA folks is from a moral high ground. "I can't really talk to you because your heart is full of cruelty. You remind me of a bully who tortures animals. I hope you find Jesus. I shall pray for your soul." They are disarmed and so confused.

Critics want subtlety. Traumatized kids need clarity. Stranger Things doesn't win because it's subtle. It wins because it's not afraid to say the truth out loud to the people who need to hear it most. www.kameronhurley.com/we-are-the-s...

The Morning Monty caught a brief peep of sun, but it went away entirely too soon.

goooood morning it is brisk but dry and partly cloudy - so we took a long loop around the neighborhood and stopped at a little secret garden to chill and share pop tarts with the crows, so yeah, obvs: Lucy Loved That Walk

I don't care if she didn't follow directions; I don't care if she was disrespectful; I don't care if she was noncompliant; I don't care if she spit in his face, called him ugly, and smacked his mom - "immediate execution by the state" was not warranted; jfc, this isn't complicated.
losing my mind at the "she should have followed directions" people

really? really? you're cool with "if you don't follow directions, they get to kill you"? that seems like a good state of affairs to you? that seems like how law enforcement ought to work: instant obeisance or death?
January 7, 2026 at 7:09 PM
everyone should be mad as hell and getting madder by the nanosecond, and our politicians/ostensible leaders ought to be leading the charge - yes, at their own personal risk, *that's what we elected them for* and if they don't want to do it, they should move over for someone who *will*
"I ask folks to remain calm."

Stop asking angry residents to calm down and start demanding that ICE leave or cease hostile activity. TAKE THE SIDE OF YOUR CONSTITUENTS.
My public safety team is working to gather information on an ICE related shooting this morning.

We will share information as we learn more. In the meantime, I ask folks to remain calm.

The Morning Monty would be sulking about the impending sleet, but he’s having a grand old time playing inside (for the moment)

goooood morning it is brisk but partly sunny and our timing was good, so this little lady got to greet kid after kid after kid as they headed off to school, so yes, 100%: Lucy Loved That Walk

In a nation ruled by supremacy and all its many sabotages of the public good, every act of repair is a defiant act.

*Every* act of repair is a defiant act.
Zohran just went out and fixed the Williamsburg Bridge bike entrance. Just did it. No faffing, no nonsense. Bam. Fixed.

because nobody cares, when it's only a problem for women

This is really bad; Grok is now going into is third day of regularly producing nonconsensual deepfake pornography and nobody is doing anything about it. The "Mechahitler" and "white genocide" episodes were stopped much more quickly. I suppose this tells us all about relative priorities.

occam's razor agrees
not to go all identity politics but I think it’s also because the victims are women
one takeaway from the grok noncon porn thing is that much of the media just isn't interested in an issue they can't pretend has two sides or that doesn't give them an opportunity to shit on the left. Also it would be uncomfortable to justify remaining on twitter after acknowledging it
