kind of annoys me when people use the aesthetics of graffiti to show they're edgy and cool while also calling for more punitive laws, which punish the graffiti artists who give that aesthetic its cultural meaning

Trump and Musk share a commonality of somehow being both quite clever and extremely dumb which I (and others) have found confusing.
I have a model that has been working.
I think they’re both clever guys with extremely narrow worldviews.

This isn’t data, it’s a warning. Serious 30 month and 9 month rainfall deficiency in the Mt Lofties, SE SA and the Otways…levels which in the past have led to catastrophic bushfires. Prepare people…clean up, repair, save cash and insure. And join community agencies now. #auspol

I wonder what it feels like to feel okay. I think I’ve felt that for a total of ten minutes in the past few months. 30 seconds of peace at times, but not really because I become aware of the feeling since it feels different.
Is this how it’s going to be from now on?
