that look on her face makes me really able to do the kind of things people do in wartime to the kind of people that would order then do this.

This is a war crime.

When I was 15, I gave all my He-Man figures, vehicles, and playsets to this kid I babysat for. He broke or lost them over the next two years, then grew up to be a real shit.

I regret that act of generosity.

I will feel absolutely NOTHINY for aunts and uncles to die now, because they approve of this. I hate having to know this about people I once defaulted to with "love."

This is what evil looks like.

If you rename the Department of Defense the Department of War, then bomb fishing boats in the Caribbean, and shoot an unarmed priest in the head with a pepper bullet, you should automatically be barred from receiving the Nobel Peace Prize for the rest of your life.

the most transcendent VR experience I had, while it lasted: STAR WARS ROGUE SQUADRON in VR with a HOTAS flight stick & throttle. It was like flying an X-Wing (or, my personal favorite, an A-Wing) fighter FOR REAL. I was blowing up fools for years.

Love and strength to you. Thank you for sharing this about who she was and who she will remain in your heart, and therefore, still active in the world, even if she is not here for you to hug and hold. ❤️

If your response to not winning a Nobel Peace Prize is to declare war on the Nobel Peace Prize, that's a good indicator that you were never a good candidate for a Nobel Peace Prize.

Today my daughter's preschool is holding a farewell assembly for one of her classmates whose mother has no choice but to self deport. The school is hoping it will be joyful in tone, so we might make this less upsetting for this 3 year old.

There's just no words for the uselessness of this cruelty.
