Before you indulge in any holiday mirth, remember that Peter of Damascus (12th century) warns against 298 passions mentioned in the Bible: harshness, trickery, malice, perversity, mindlessness, mindlessness, licentiousness, enticement, dullness, lack of understanding, idleness, sluggishness (1/?)

Small town and suburban bars the week of thanksgiving have the most insane vibes—adults at home visiting parents and already going insane and sneaking out at night to drink. Weird and terrifying kinships form

the real story here is the only thing lonelier than motherhood is marriage?
I'm literally just living a normal life while also experiencing a theophany via communication with the satellite called VALIS.

if you’re proper, they’ll let you do anything
It was a memorial service much like the man, restrained and proper yet charged with quiet energy. But as Washington honored Dick Cheney for his service and devotion to country, it underscored how much politics has turned topsy in this country. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/20/u...

i don't know how to phrase this delicately, but i just want to communicate to young white men in incel-adjacent spaces that this sort of behavior will solve your problems
I love him. “The first time I caught up to [ICE], I could tell that they already knew who I was. They had seen me before, so they thought they were just going to speed away. I was like, ‘Ha ha, bitches, I got a new scooter!’”

For me, Trump’s unhinged and savage use of the epithet “Piggy” triggered a middle school memory of reading Lord of the Flies in which a sane, rational, and sickly character named Piggy with whom I identified is murdered by a mob of angry brutalizing boys.
I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

So many vulnerable people were hurt, harassed and raped by these ghouls and now—I’m worried—it’s gonna become hehe haha lurid internet circus instead of a long overdue moral reckoning. I’m scared of who we all are becoming. That man has brought us ALL low.

Just another reminder that the primary problem with Seattle law enforcement is that the officers they hire (usually not residents) have a deep and abiding contempt for the city’s residents fed by a steady Fox News diet. And their union chief embodies that.
Mike Solan, SPD guild president, issued a statement openly questioning the validity of the votes for Katie Wilson.
Solan's embrace of the far right & SPD's history of aggression could make a dangerous situation if the national guard is sent to #Seattle.
