Hey everyone, you’ve been asking me to run for office for a while, so guess what?
I’m running for California State Assembly!
Now, I don’t like asking for money, but we gotta pay for this somehow, and if everyone throws in $7 we’ll have the resources to run one hell of a race, so, uh, do the thing.

I think my favorite parasocial online interaction is the “I’m responding to your post and here’s why you’re wrong,” and then I reply with a list of rhetorical counters to their appeal to emotion arguments, and then they reply with “WOW why are you so upset <spells my name wrong>”

It’s incorrect (as much as I enjoyed those books). If you had the capability to wipe out a civilization in another galaxy and the inclination to do so, you’d use it at home first. Someone always pushes the button.

I literally wrote about this in 2013 in Sparkleponies, and the answer is very simple if you take a second to really think about evolutionary pressures.
Yes, there are likely millions of intelligent lifeforms out there.

It's unchartered, but we can see the terrain: the territory ahead includes masked secret police taking people to concentration camps but not new vaccines. That's our reward for a system in which fewer than 20 people, all of them deranged and malicious, control over $3 trillion.
The pace at which US wealth concentration is rising is simply staggering

Fuentes, yesterday: “Our #1 political enemy is women because women constrain everything, every conversation, every man, everything. They have to be imprisoned. They are the ones that are hurting the fertility rate. They're the ones making us sympathetic to poor people, which are also brown people.”

Slightly off topic, but my favorite Valentine’s date with my wife was when we were both in college (before we got married), and we didn’t really have plans so we decided to see if we could just walk in to Lawry’s and it was half empty because a bank had just been robbed down the street.
This is an unapologetically sappy feel-good subject (at least, I guess, for people in a happy relationship”). So, to prepare for Valentine’s Day, what did you and your partner do for a first date?
My wife and I went to tea at Huntington Gardens and walked around.

There is no reforming this. There is only abolition, and then trials.
On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.
The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.
But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.
