Me: I wish all these tech bro types would stop misunderstanding sci-fi and fantasy classics

Border Patrol chief Greg Bovino "also revered Starship Troopers, Robert Heinlein's 1959 military sci-fi classic about an interstellar war between humans and alien bugs - a book his sister says he still reads to this day."
An endless amount of deranged details in this interview with Greg Bovino's sister, but most notably that his uncle produced the Jack Nicholson movie The Border and the depiction of the agent as corrupt radicalized him as a 12-yr-old.
"Since then, he was like, 'Dude, I want to do Border Patrol.'"

Hey Hey we're the Beatles
People say we have shiny carapaces
But we're too busy scuttling
To worry about the looks on their faces
We're just trying to get some dung
Come and watch us climb on a tree
We're the arthropod generation
And we've got someplace to be!

I’m heartsick to hear that the incomparable Alice Wong has passed. Her loss will be felt keenly, by many, and for a long time. She is a force, a generous leader and storyteller, and an oracle for disabled futures. Much love to Alice and to all our crip kin and comrades. ❤️🩹

This is so accurate it hurts (with the small caveat of some of these people are retiring and don't give a shit about their re-election or their constituents).
not to name names but John Fetterman, Tim Kaine, Angus King, Dick Durbin, Jacky Rosen, Catherine Cortez Masto, Jeanne Shaheen, Maggie Hassan. And most of all Chuck Schumer.
