There are people in this country who want to see state violence perpetrated against their perceived enemies and they will barely put forth an effort to come up with a "reasonable" justification. They are a minority who just happen to be overrepresented in the federal government

Seeing a bunch of normal ass midwestern moms and dads marching in -20 degrees knowing they might be tear gassed or worse really drives home what a cowardly lot of people the pundit class is

Always remember that listening to music can be the entire activity. Put on headphones. Blast it through speakers. Close your eyes and just listen.

Listening to music is not a background activity. It can be the entire journey, and it's worth the time.

You don’t have to want kids or even enjoy being around them. But it’s also worth unpacking why kids simply existing, learning, or having unmet needs reads as “annoying,” “unlikeable,” or “bad behavior.”

This collective discomfort with noise, need, & vulnerability is why many ADULTS are struggling.

I was wondering what Mamdani's first executive order would be, and I'm not disappointed by this.

He has wiped off the books EVERY Eric Adams executive order issued on or after September 26, 2024, the day Adams was indicted on federal bribery charges.

Who are the people the powerful and rich are telling you to be afraid of? Those are the people you should be fighting for, and with.

Isn't that remarkable? Simple oil of cloves, and how amazing the results. Life can be that simple: Relief; discomfort. Now which of these I next apply? That decision is in your hands. So: take your time, and tell me — is it cake?
