Do y’all know of any kind of guided mediation that is like, “Soften your gaze. Relax your body. If your thoughts wander to trying to decode the Epstein files and ensure these fuckers receive justice, return to your breath.”

Cause that’s what I need

gotta do investigations into DHS “waste, fraud and abuse” as pretext for killing the agency
The interior of Kristi Noem’s new billionaire-class luxury jet is complete with two bidets and a wet bar with a wine chiller. It will be purchased on our dime from the slush fund Congress approved in the One Big Beautiful Bill.

I feel like we've all lost sight of the fact of the sheer magnitude of the failure of Putin's latest offensive, i.e. the one that began in 2024—mainly because it's been so baked into the day-to-day.

Far and away the least successful offensive we've seen in not just years, but decades.

Yes to all of this, and it makes you feel old and stupid when you get angry at your technology and can’t figure out how to disable it.
If I had to bet on the main thing that has radicalized people against "ai," and I am talking about the way that branding is CURRENTLY BEING USED, not whatever specialized ML utility you may have found for it, it would be in apps and tech they already use being made worse and/or inoperable by it

Note the framing here:

It’s “Democrats have refused to fund” DHS and not “Republicans refused to prohibit face masks” or “the two parties could not agree on how to reform the agency.”

I started a course of prednisone yesterday because my eyelid was puffed up weirdly, and I must say that the drug makes you feel like you’re really getting a lot of shit done and firing on all cylinders when a actually you’re just walking around a lot more than usual

this is one of favorite things to do. Last summer my 17 year old and I saw a stage production of West Side Story and during intermission I said that Tony was Chopped and also Unc and she melted away into her chair with pure revulsion
if you're an older person who finds words like mogg and maxxing annoying, just starting using them. people over the age of 30 have the superpower to end trends by simply adopting them

We need to simplify the idea of speedy citizenship for immigrants. YES TO CITIZENSHIP, NO TO DEPORTATION etc
The extraordinary public backlash to Trump's ICE raids and mass deportations suggests it's time to rethink how information warfare and political persuasion work in the Trump era. Dems have an opening to reset the immigration debate if they act now.

New piece from me:
newrepublic.com/article/2059...
How the Democrats Can Play Offense on Immigration
Typically, Democrats run for the hills when immigration comes up. But as two blue-state governors are showing, the winning play is actually to confront ICE and MAGA xenophobia head on.
