As Toni Morrison said, "the very serious function of racism is distraction. It keeps you from doing your work." But she also reminded us never to lose our capacity to be shocked.

They don’t even pretend to care. This is the only story. You can’t open the government if the House refuses to show up.
At this moment they may be moving to bigger premises :/

I honestly don't know if it's been as bleak as it's about to be at any point since the Holocene began anyways.

It’s still hard to grasp that there aren’t 4 GOP Reps (who will otherwise be forgotten forever after retiring & likely defeated next year anyway) aren’t interested in going down in history as all-time 🇺🇸 heroes by caucusing with the Dems & giving them the majority to impeach Trump & save the Republic
Democrats should hold a press conference and announce that if Mike Johnson has no interest in running the House they'd be happy to do it for him
Mike Johnson has dissolved Congress. Why?
The public of Australia has no appetite for constitutional change of any kind right now. You mention the words constitutional change and peoples eyes glaze over.

Near zero chance in the next few years. Maybe after the next world war or when fascism collapses in the US if that happens first.
Fuck me this is bleak.
As difficult as it is - as a parent - to look down the barrel of this future, it’s nothing compared to the horrors our kids are on track to live through.

I keep seeing long threads where people do complex math to justify unmasking, calculating their own risk of illness 🧮

But almost never, "Hey what's the risk to the person beside me at the pharmacy?"

We’ve individualized public health to death

I’ve used WA Health’s COVID-19 wastewater surveillance page to estimate the number of infections of BA.3.2.

I estimate ~400 BA.3.2.* infections in Perth for the latest week, and ~4,600 over the 9 weeks since BA.3.2.* was first detected.
