For today, "Loose and easy language about equality, resonant resolutions about brotherhood fall pleasantly on the ear, but ... each modest advance ... promptly raises the argument that the Negro has come far enough. Each step forward accents an ever-present tendency to backlash.” MLK, 1967

Another post on my on-again, off-again blog over at Wordpress. This time, I'm thinking about "Slow Horses."
Slow Horses
I'm not sure how I happened on "Slow Horses." Perhaps it was a snippet of video of Gary Oldman laughing at his farts. Maybe it was someone's skeet on Bluesky. or perhaps it was an early "Best of" article towards the end of 2025. However it happened. I'm glad it did. The. imminently bingeable show quickly was a fixture on my screen, and I tore through the five seasons in weeks.

This is weaponized petty and I'm here for it.
In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

The fact that Republicans will ignore any agreement negates the possibility of making agreements with them! How ill you bind them to this agreement?
Sen. @kaine.senate.gov, I'm a constituent and just called your office, but of course it's closed, so let me message you instead. Do NOT support the CR-Minibus because it does not protect Congress's power of the purse. Without such provisions, the WH will continue to ignore Congress with impunity.

@markwarner.bsky.social folks from VA are texting me to contact their reps to say "No" to this fake deal. Have Trump and the Republicans kept a deal? Look at what they did to DC funds! Look at what they've done to court decisions! They are playing Dems to get a concession that they will not keep!

@davidjroth.bsky.social Listenin' to the pod, and as a child of divorce in the 70s, I remember People's Express stewardesses running credit cards in the aisles through those old chunka chunk machines of our youth midflight. And their honey roasted peanuts which were delicious.

Wearing my "Policy & Change" tee, & it started me thinking of the 2 parties' responses to recent gun violence--1 side, fund mental health, increase gun restrictions; the other side, CIVIL WAR! It reinforces my idea the left is principled & is about policy; the right is merely out for power.

National Guard soldiers called into service for President Trump's law enforcement surge in D.C. have been assigned to spread mulch at federal monuments.
Normally the Park Service does that, but the administration laid off the workers.

Listened to “To Kill a Mockingbird” with the kids and started thinking. Were we more fascistic then, but used to it? Was it as angst-inducing then (especially for white folks) as it is now?
