I feel this so deeply.

"I wish I wrote the way I thought" by Benedict Smith
"I wish I wrote the way I thought; Obsessively; Incessantly; With maddening hunger. It'd write to the point of suffocation. I'd write myself into nervous breakdowns, Manuscripts spiralling out like tentacles into abysmal nothing. And I'd write about you a lot more than I should."

Going to be wild to have Clarence Thomas and other members of the court write that even the appearance of impropriety is sufficient to allow the President to remove Federal Reserve members from office, and then head off to Harlan Crow’s yacht

this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like

Why should I write better when a machine can do it for me?
Because actually no one can do it for you, because your voice is unique among all the people on earth. Siri never petted a horse's neck. Alexa has never been ghosted by the captain of the football team. But you have lived, your heart is beating, you have suffered, and you have something important to say. It's a human's job, to use words, and whatever job you give to a machine, that part of your brain goes dark. Maybe it's worth it when it comes to remembering phone numbers and directions, but when that part of your brain that uses words goes dark, that's a vast area that's very close to your soul. Don't let some internet platform convince you that what you have to say and create isn't worthwhile. Words are the echo of your soul. Honing that echo matters.

Anyone who tells you it's about who's here illegally, and not about skin color:

Tell them to go fuck themselves.

White woman puts Mexican flag on her truck to waste ICE’s time.

Scooby
I am as white as a hotel towel, and the closest thing to Mexican I am was a single all inclusive resort stay in Cancun. I put a Mexican flag sticker on my old Tacoma abd was promptly pulled over by ICE in San Antonio. I'm happy to waste their time

This is the way

Scooby • RookaTX
Their big question was like, "why the sticker" I told them it was on the truck when I bought it-and they suggested I remove it. Obnoxious creatures.

An actual dictator and a wannabe dictator walk into a bar.

The actual dictator points a gun at the bartender and says, “Leave.”

Then he shows the wannabe dictator all the blackmail he has on him.

“Now, do what I say,” he commands.

Sorry, this isn’t a joke. It’s what happened yesterday in Alaska.

Rachel #Maddow is out here in her A-Block reminding us that there’s no bigger protector or enabler of vile criminals than Donald ‘Tough on Crime’ Trump:

Triple-murderer Dahud Hanid Ortiz
Sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell
Jan 6 insurrectionist Jared ‘Kill Cops’ Wise

These are Trump’s kind of people.

What we see happening in real time is actually part of Martial Law. Oh, it hasn’t been officially declared, but his federal takeover plans for cities across the nation…under the cloak of “attacking crime,” is pre-positioning for when he does. It will happen prior to the November elections. Watch.
