My favorite two teams are Nebrasketball and the Cleveland Browns (IKR). Hopefully, before I die I'll get my "Shawshank" moment...after crawling through the 💩 it will be glorious to reach the summit. “Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things and no good thing ever dies."

History buffs will know that every authoritarian leader eventually converges on some version of: "I *am* the state. I can not break the law, I am the law, the law is instantiated in me."
Our march to authoritarianism so far has been excruciatingly by-the-book. Hitting every beat. No surprises.

I’m having great difficulty right now seeing how our political system doesn’t devolve into violence.

So, as of now, all we lost in threatened tariffs round 1 is the remaining good will of millions of people who live adjacent to our country and spend a ton of money on stuff we sell. Cool.
So Trump hurt America's relationship with Canada and made markets wobble all to "get" Canada to do things Canada had announced back in December in coordination with the Biden administration, do I have that right?

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.
Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

You cannot assume Nazis are engaging in “good faith” discourse. They are not. Tolerating their arguments as “good faith” arguments will lead to the tolerant being systematically destroyed and tolerance along with them. Intolerance wins when the tolerant repeatedly give them the benefit of the doubt
