Heard about the Louvre jewel heist and my first thought was “finally, some good old fashioned normal crime”

We love spending the night at the emergency vet the day after staying up all night filled with dread about the car that just broke down

In an interesting turn of events it seems I’m now a White House official

An email from JD Vance saying “I consider you one of my closest advisors”

Maybe it’s just me, but if you’re urgently hiring and offering 16/hr you’ve lost your god damn mind

A naked descent into authoritarianism is weirdly boring because what’s being debated is fundamentally uninteresting. Is the antifa legion burning down Portlan real or not? Well, let’s have someone look out the window over there. No? Okay. Facts are settled. It either matters or it doesn’t.

I’d be an alcoholic and a smoker if it wasn’t so damn expensive

No, no, it’s all good that you forgot that thing that I needed. That’s just my emotional support snake eating its own tail where I asked for a need to be fulfilled and then didn’t take initiative to remind you because I assumed you remembered and just didn’t want to do it anymore

there are entire groups of people who’ve had the relationship me and my dad have, but with the government. I can’t fathom how to truly fix the relationship with my dad. He’d have to change and, the government also has to change if we want better.

We still don’t call much. There’s too much said, too much pain, too much dysfunction. I’d need a real apology, which I will never get and I know that. I don’t think there’s a lesson in any of this or anything. Im just sad it’s like this and that it’s like this every day and that

My dad’s playing nice right now. Based on the radio station I heard him listening to I don’t think he’s changed much, I just think he knows those views will absolutely make his kids leave him. He doesn’t know what to do with that so he’s chose to shut up for the time being.

This last decade has been like me unlearning that I’m some evil Other Thing at the same time as my dad taking over the world. Idk why I’m being vulnerable on the Internet this morning, I’ve just got a lot of feelings and not a lot of space to talk about them.

“Even talk like them (democrats).” I was transitioning ideologically away from electoral politics at that point, so I always find that moment funny looking back on it. Every time I thought I found my footing he would pull the rug and make me question myself again.

he took from me. Every time I expressed a view that celebrated someone he thought was wrong, I was a tormentor. The bringer of all the evil. The other side. “Them”. I once chose to speak to him compassionately instead of yelling and the rage in his face only increased until he was shouting that I

I’m thinking really hard about how backwards my dad is and how much it fucked me up. He turned me into a villain before I even understood why. He called me selfish and manipulative so many times I internalized it into adulthood and have spent a decade trying to take up the space

We could all just get houses and chill instead. Farm little farms and break bread together. I don’t understand why humans seem to want to be like this. Nothing is written, nothing is inevitable, and yet. I’m exhausted.

So the formula plays out. Good struggles against evil and you can say that good always wins in the end, but who determines the end? You could say the same thing about evil. It has the same cycle, the same wins, it causes pain and then it’s defeated only to rise again.

We knew it would come because we were online. We watched them with derision as they spewed garbage on the dark depths of the Internet. Hating minorities. Hating women. What could be done when it was the worse version of the things our parents said at backyard bbq’s, I mean, come on.

I’m just musing here so don’t read too seriously. I keep thinking about the sea of white men on one side and the diverse, multi-faceted crowd that faces them with stark faces under our cobbled masks. None of us wanted this fight, we just knew it would come and hoped it wouldn’t.

From there it’s robots. It’s the only path to immortalize themselves in this reality. Evil, clanking robots spending themselves into oblivion. Maybe into the stars, if all my theories about them knowing about aliens are right (they are).
