Discworld QOTD, from Equal Rites
“Zoon tribes are very proud of their Liars.
Other races get very annoyed about all this. They feel that the Zoon ought to have adopted more suitable titles, like ‘diplomat’ or ‘public relations officer’. They feel they are poking fun at the whole thing.”

"But what should we do when the highborn and wealthy take to crime? Indeed, if a poor man will spend a year in prison for stealing out of hunger, how high would the gallows need to be to hang the rich man who breaks the law out of greed?"

It can seem pollyannaish to imagine wildly positive futures at times like this, but that's when they're most powerful - a light to guide our way out of the dark.
Fascism wins when we can't remember what a better world looks like. When it doesn't feel possible. Nurturing our dreams is resistance.

Trump, on the reason for not informing Congress until after the fact: “Congress will leak, and we don’t want leakers.”
Q: "Did you notify members of Congress in advance?"
Rubio: "We called members of Congress immediately after. This was not the kind of mission that you can do Congressional notification on."

I wish I could elocute what is going on and why it's wrong. But my tongue gets tied with despair. The easy metaphor is Cassandra.
Even more, I wish I didn't have to explain why things are wrong, that everyone in the USA just knew THIS IS WRONG and took action to correct it.
My heart hurts.

The NCAA school with the highest winning percentage in the fall sports (football, volleyball, men's and women's basketball) - Nebraska.
And here's the thing, folks: it isn't close. The Huskers have a total of 9 losses across the four sports, and six of them are from football.
