"All is lost" narratives are popular because people generally do not want to take action. Taking action is tiring so if all is lost, you are off the hook. Nothing is more seductive than not having to do anything.

Normally the creators of beloved children’s cartoon characters would not need to disavow the U.S. Secretary of Defense, but ours is a drunken miscreant, a loutish boor with the dignity and nobility of a counterfeit butt-plug

I am not participating in capitalism today surely out of staunch principle and not because the mortgage and the gas bill are due the same day, the week after I spent a week’s wages on pie ingredients.

And one more rescue animal than is comfortable.
Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

“Short bursts indicate an ICE sighting. Long whistles indicate agents making arrests. If you hear the whistle and you’re undocumented, said [Whitney Hu, a community activist and organizer with South Brooklyn Mutual Aid], ‘you hide. And if you’re somebody who’s not, you go to the street.’”

I now 1000% believe that trump was watching #SNL bc he loves that they talk about him, saw the MacGruber bit where he says “the only people who don’t want the list out are the people who have done something wrong” and his lizard brain told him he had to endorse the House vote
