Remember that there is a legitimately elected president of Venezuela: Edmundo Gonzalez. He won the election in 2024.

Whatever you might think of Maduro, the seizure and kidnapping of a head of state takes us to a very dark place. Vast, arbitrary, extra-legal power, which could be exercised almost anywhere, regardless of the character of the target government.

Illy stole the show. Her glorious impertinence in the face of daunting reality belied an abiding wisdom, generosity of spirit, and disarming humor marshaled to comfort viewers before herself.

These both-sidesing year-in-review pieces that don’t center the cruelty, destructiveness, racism, and derangement of the Trump agenda are the perfect capper to a year of inexcusable normalizing by the elite media.

Entering this new year less concerned about what good may happen to me, but increasingly needing reminders that good still happens.

Dear Jon Stewart c/o @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social
I recently watched, with great surprise and disappointment, a weeklyshowpodcast segment in which you and other "personalities," gleefully mocked and derided the relatively small subset of individuals who continue to wear a face mask in public.

Fact | You can't write something predicated in the utterly ludicrous assumption that white men are being excluded from publishing unless you are racist.

Like Temperance Brennan in Bones … it’s confirmed outside of the show that Heated Rivalry’s Shane is canonically Autistic.
Reid realized she wrote Shane as Autistic after her oldest was DXed.
Williams isn’t openly Autistic but took inspiration from his Autistic father in the portrayal.

The passing of The Cure's Perry Bamonte reminded me of this quote from Robert Smith:

Another tell: AI “writers” don’t like writing. AI “artists” don’t like making art.
This is a really good point that I had not run into before: these "creators" have no further insight into their alleged creation than the average audience member and that is why it cannot be called art (besides all the other obvious reasons).
