Reading the interviews of Gabriel García Márquez and this passage stands out to me, from the 1970s but relevant in this time, that in this era the fight must be for collective happiness, which as he astutely describes, is the only kind of just happiness

this is analogous to how tech ctos work: they could have a better product by focusing on better pay, more time off, cutting stress for workers; instead they will pay billions for ai crapware to feed the ego—helping a community and being loved will give similar or better life-lengthening benefits
if we tax them more, how will they pay for all the blood cleansing, cell rejuvenation, and transcranial magnetic stimulation they need? www.wsj.com/lifestyle/tr...

Buttigieg polled an impressive 0% with Black voters. Zero. Percent.
Do you know how kind and friendly Black voters are? Everyone gets like 3%, just for showing up! You have to work to go down from there!
It's 2025, And I still run into people that don't know why Black voters don't like Buttigieg.

i’ve already been doing targeted red light for over a year and i’m looking forward to a few months of full body therapy

hawke is good in “blue moon,” but really you’re going for scott as rodgers. when they’re together, the movie springs to life, and you wish it were a bit more traditional, flashing back to give us a sense of the good times and what we lost—if only to give us more time with these actors together.

"The more-than-300 comments responding to that anonymous post are full of mothers looking for property in New Jersey or Florida, predicting that Mamdani’s promise to make buses free will lead criminals to rape and kill innocent passengers."
