Anxiety is your brain using your ancestral instincts to survive being hunted by a saber-toothed tiger, but applying it with the same sense of urgency to an embarassing thing you once said 15 years ago.

The thought that has festered and dug itself under my skin the last few weeks is that there are absolutely weekend warrior militia members working for ICE right now who will remember these as the best years of their lives.

And seriously, fuck every last one of them.

When I was a kid the thing I most wanted from Star Wars was a lightsaber but now I think I'd probably prefer a competent rebellion.

Dear god let this man cook.
Pritzker: It’s time for us to be done with optimism about their motives. Time to stop wondering if you can trust the nuclear codes to people who don’t know how to organize a group chat. It’s time to stop ignoring the hypocrisy in wearing a big gold cross while announcing the defunding of children’s cancer research… Autistic kids and adults who are loving contributors to our society don’t deserve to be stigmatized by a weird nepo baby who once stashed a dead bear in his car. Our military service members don’t deserve to be told by a washed-up Fox TV commentator, who drank too much before being appointed Secretary of Defense, that they can’t serve their country simply because they are Black, gay, or a woman.

Reminder: If you’re using thumbprint or facial recognition, you can be forced to hand over or open your phone. You can’t be forced to open your phone if you’re using a passcode. A passcode requires a search warrant. The more you know.

fuck you make me
The Geordi from Star Trek meme where he’s against the top thing but is really into the bottom thing. This one says Things he doesn’t like: "Do Not Comply In Advance" bossy already a cliche implies permission to comply later And the stuff he likes says “"Fuck You, Make Me" leads by example directs yelling at opposition instead of allies easy to chant at a protest or put on a banner

financial advice in a weird time:

-- develop a plan
-- find friends who support you
-- preferably 10 of them
-- steal $160 million from the Bellagio, the Mirage, and the MGM Grand
-- yes those are Terry Benedict's casinos
-- get your wife back
-- one of the friends should be Don Cheadle btw

Ursula K. Le Guin on the true pain of being a writer
Screenshot of a single question and answer from interview in the Times Literary Supplement with Ursula K. Le Guin. Here is the quote: If you could make a change to anything you’ve written over the years, what would it be? In The Dispossessed, I would mention the communal pickle barrels at street corners in the big towns, restocked by whoever in the community has made or kept more pickles than they need. I knew about the free pickles all along, but never could fit them into the book.

Take a moment today to read about a few of the young children whom Trump and Musk killed by shutting down USAID. The blame for these deaths falls on them.

There will be hundreds of thousands more dead kids before their lethal crusade against foreign aid ends. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
Another household kept alive by American aid was that of Jennifer Inyaa, a 35-year-old single mom, and her 5-year-old son, Evan Anzoo, both of them H.I.V.-positive. Last month, after the aid shutdown, Inyaa became sick and died, and a week later Evan died as well, according to David Iraa Simon, a community health worker who assisted them. Decisions by billionaires in Washington quickly cost the lives of a mother and her son. "Many more children will die in the coming weeks," said Margret Amjuma, a health worker who confirmed the deaths of Peter and Achol.

Anyway, we can't go on like this. Culture has to rescued from the fascists, the tech bros, all who want to drown us in profitable slop. A country in touch with the best humanity has created, where people can make a living broadening and adding to that canon. This is the America I want.

governments should spend money, literally all their fucking money. on taking care of the people from whom they got the money. on building cool shit for the people from whom they got the money to use, like highways and public works. this is real easy

how can these people be so bad at this
jessicawluther.com Jessica Luther @jessicawluther.com · Mar 9
We should reject outright the framing that the answer is to cut spending, that it needs to be cut. Even giving in to that is playing into conservatives’ hands, letting them set the edges of the debate.

Welker to Slotkin: "Democrats were in charge for four years. You were in Congress at the time. Why didn't Democrats do more to cut government spending when they were in charge?"
