The Cynics had five core principles:
1. Ἀρετή (Aretē) – Virtue as the Only Good
2. Αὐτάρκεια (Autarkeia) – Self-Sufficiency
3. Παραρρησία (Parrēsia) – Frank Speech
4. Ἀναίδεια (Anaideia) – Shamelessness
5. Κατὰ φύσιν ζῆν (Kata physin zēn) – Living According to Nature
These are the Way of the Dog.

Clearly some jerk hasn’t read enough Algernon Blackwood. NEVER fuck with The Willows.
There are some people who seem to see the recovery of ecosystems in a deforested waste as a personal affront. It's about power, and different landscapes reflect the different ways in which power is distributed - or concentrated.

Accounts immediately posting that some terrible event means "martial law" or "civil war" are either thoughtless or feds. Neither of these are inevitable, and also neither would require an instigating event if the administration really wanted to do it. Do yrself a favor and block 'em.

Cheesecake with a graham cracker crust is the clear winner. A little cake, a little pie, can be vegan, can be a little savory (goat cheese and olive oil, drizzled with aged balsamic).
Clear winner.

A very unwelcome effect of Mamdani's visit to the White House is the sudden reversion of Trump back into an 'entertainment' figure, shoving Epstein, extrajudicial killings in the Caribbean, and threats to execute members of Congress off the media table in favor of 'goofy uncle' photo ops

Given the number of death threats a friend has received for using AI this past year, I’m not surprised by this.
SCOOP: OpenAI employees in San Francisco were told to stay inside the office on Friday afternoon after the company purportedly received a threat from an individual who was previously associated with the Stop AI activist group.
OpenAI Locks Down San Francisco Offices Following Alleged Threat From Activist
A message on OpenAI’s internal Slack claimed the activist in question had expressed interest in “causing physical harm to OpenAI employees.”

Look, I'm sorry, but in spite of his obvious skills in the arcane arts, Mamdani doesn't have a hat. He may be a "powerful sorcerer" or an "advanced magus," but until we see the hat, we won't be able to grant him official status.
How to be a “real” Wizard Step 3:
Get a hat. It doesn't have to be pointy, but it's essential to have some kind of hat over and above a simple hood. You can have more than one (I have a dozen probably), but you need at least one that is specific to wizardry.

Wizards are patient with, and kind to, children. Crying babies on an airplane do not upset or annoy a Wizard; instead, a Wizard will offer to help the frustrated parents. Only an evil or dark wizard would make disliking children part of their personality.
