“Of the Empire” by Mary Oliver
“Of the Empire” by Mary Oliver We will be known as a culture that feared death and adored power, that tried to vanquish insecurity for the few and cared little for the penury of the many. We will be known as a culture that taught and rewarded the amassing of things, that spoke little if at all about the quality of life for people (other people), for dogs, for rivers. All the world, in our eyes, they will say, was a commodity. And they will say that this structure was held together politically, which it was, and they will say also that our politics was no more than an apparatus to accommodate the feelings of the heart, and that the heart, in those days, was small, and hard, and full of meanness.

Re-watched The Prince of Egypt last night for the first time in a long time + introduced it to my husband! :) Seeing him experience it for the first time was such a treat.

Happy birthday to J.R.R. Tolkien, who faced the worst of humanity and dreamed anyway.

Good riddance to 2025. First half was rough; second half was somehow rough and wonderful simultaneously. A hectic and confusing year.

Friends— here it is. Updated & expanded thanks to the space afforded to me in the @therumpus.net & the guidance of the brilliant @roxanegay.bsky.social’s edits. The win centers Muslims humanity — but what does that mean in a country that rejects that?

Made it to my husband’s hometown for our second wedding ceremony this weekend! I’m feeling a little under the weather, so my mother-in-law made some juk and jeon for me. 🥹💕
A container of veggie juk and a container of beef jeon.

Congress passed a bipartisan law long ago mandating that a plaque honoring the officers who defended Capitol on J6 be displayed in the building. Mike Johnson has ignored that law and refuses to do it.

I can’t stop thinking about this poster a protester brought to Incheon Airport for the arrival of the Hyundai workers.
A photo of a large vertical poster depicting an ICE agent wearing Trump mask. The agent has a rifle slung across their chest, chains hanging over their shoulder, and is holding a bag full of money embossed with an American flag and the words “I <3 Korea.” Text at the top of the poster reads “We’re friends! Aren’t we?”

“awful people don’t deserve to be killed, but they don’t deserve to be praised, either” is apparently a thought too complex for the pundit mind

You have more money than God. But you want incentives to do good, moral things?
