I didn't enjoy any part of this book where Siona wasn't on page, but the rating is solely for that one chapter which was so cathartic that I feel like I traveled back through the astral plane to dictate it to Frank Herbert

Since there are a lot of people insisting that protests don't matter and the Trumpists can simply ignore public opinion: I just wrote about why this idea that authoritarian regimes are impervious to public pressure is very wrong and basically just perpetuates the regime's assertion of inevitability:

Posting ask if the United States invented racism is easily the most ignorant, most unbearably stupid, most obliviously self-aggrandizing thing (some, not all) Europeans in the political commentary space do.

The thing about "Americans look bad on the world stage now" is that Europeans always looked down on Americans, but now they can feel woke-adjacent about it. Like I've seen them claim the US doesn't have culture, especially not from Indigenous or Black people. This isnt new

My new phone automatically turns everything black and white at 11pm, so lets see if this cuts my nighttime scrolling (it won't, I already feel 1920s Hollywood chic while using it)

A few years ago for Inktober or something, False Knees had a longform comic that started off with a small bird dancing and singing "Boom boom shaka shaka, pretty birdie let me see that cloaca" and I want to reference it all the time, but I never saved the panel to show anyone, and this is my sorrow
