don’t quite understand the urge to relativize the current moment, or the underlying belief that things can’t really get meaningfully worse, because they can and they will
It is funny to see liberals talking about “do not obey in advance” but sure yeah. Please don’t ask what Democrats’ spending priorities have been for the last 30 years (hint: people say we defunded them)

read the latest ezra klein interview and while i stridently disagree with them on many topics, they’re very right in diagnosing america as failing.

the fact that any of this is happening (gaetz, rfk) is damning proof that big-L Liberalism, in eight short years, has frayed beyond recognition

I’ve made a lot of friends here since joining bluesky last year, and it’s been wonderful to be part of such a welcoming community, but it’s time to jettison them all now that actual celebs are arriving and I can suck up to them instead

we all need our own lord henry wotton. someone who randomly pops up at social events and parties to offer nonsensical epigrams that alter the trajectory of your life

it’s strange — i was briefly afraid of despair and malaise setting in, but every instagram story i see is a deep, bitter resolve to keep going.

there’s even quite little of the shock, outrage and “you dumb fucks!” moralizing. certainly different to 2016 — but i can’t tell (yet) good or bad
You know it's a fucked up day when people start sharing poems.
