Relaxing in a porch swing at a mountain cabin while a friend plays guitar and sings. This is good.

I was all ready for an apocalypse a la The Leftovers, but it looks like we’re stuck enduring this regular old societal collapse apocalypse.

I have been traveling for 11 days, including seven flights through six airports, I don’t remember how many restaurants, shops, and museums, plus a big concert and a state fair.

Meanwhile, my wife went to the grocery store and caught covid.

Life ain’t fair, y’all.

My cellular provider has a feature to "delete and mark as junk" any unwanted text. They just sent me a marketing text (which I'm supposed to be opted out of), so I employed their feature on them.

It's these little things that get me through the week.

Republicans: OMG, how could Trump do these terrible things.

Republicans, 5 minutes later: Here's a bill explicitly enabling Trump to do whatever he wants.

Republicans, 5 more minutes later: I just want my voters to know I am against these sorts of things.
Republicans slipped a provision into their big spending bill that would limit the power of federal judges to hold people in contempt, potentially allowing Trump and his administration to violate court orders without consequence. @migold.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/05/22/u...

Most mornings coffee is just coffee, but some mornings I need it like a healing potion.

Wake up. HSIOW. Then I realize it’s actually Tuesday. 😩

Last night @lisaeh.bsky.social and I went to John Scalzi’s book tour event at Eagle Eye Books.

True to his word, @scalzi.com did not murder us!

I get it. It would be logical and consistent for the “but her emails” people to freak out and have _at least_ as much outrage over the current “let’s share our war plans over an insecure app without even double-checking who’s in the chat“ fiasco, but c’mon.

I’m usually pretty chipper on this day. I think about my maternal grandmother, whose parents immigrated from the Emerald Isle for a better future.

Looking at how our country is treating immigrants today, I feel only shame, anger, and despair.
