I wish journalists and pundits would stop saying Trump wants to be a king. That makes it sound too nice. There are good kings. He (and his cronies) wants to be a dictator. Let's be honest with ourselves. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...
President for Life
Donald Trump is trying to amass the powers of a king.

Delegate everything

Each task brings three options. But first, let's be clear what we mean by "delegate." If I can hire someone to do a task so well that my customer can't tell, I can choose to delegate this work. The Uber driver is probably capable of changing the oil in the car, but if the…

The Uber driver is probably capable of changing the oil in the car, but if the passenger can't tell, doing it herself is a choice, not a requirement.

The other kind of magic

"The other kind, though, is surprisingly abundant. This is the magic of being able to turn on lights for others. It happens when we cause connection or open doors. It’s the magic that comes from creation, and it’s based on abundance." seths.blog/2025/11/the-...
The other kind of magic
We wait and hope for the first kind, the magic that arrives just when we need it. This is the magic of inspiration, or of good fortune. The magic of opportunties offered and connections made. There…

States from North Carolina to New Jersey are doing everything they can to keep SNAP funded, but Trump is determined to let Americans go hungry.

If you see this, quote with a vampire that isn't Dracula.

You guys, so many Romance girlies are reading "On Tyranny" that they've broken the Goodreads recommendations algorithm. 10/10; no notes.

The loss of international mail service doesn't mean things won't get delivered to the U.S. It just means that private companies will have to be paid to make the deliveries. Another loss of one of the great systems of international cooperation.

It's been a long time since I went to my own yearly meeting in person. Since 2019 to be exact. And this is the first time I will go without my children. But being part of our larger community @quakerspym.bsky.social matters to me. I wrote about it back in 2019. robinmsf.blogspot.com/2019/07/in-p...

I am loving how our @repvalhoyle.bsky.social is speaking out this summer! She's right: trickle down cruelty is a good description of the economic policies that are being enacted. The immigration practices are already raining cruelly on the families of our neighbors.
'No tax on tips' is just a Republican talking point — here's why.

Funny how I read this article right after Verizon customer service hung up on me twice. The first time was after two hours with the chat agent right before I got an appointment for onsite repair service. Second time, the hold music just cut off after 20 minutes. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...
That Dropped Call With Customer Service? It Was on Purpose.
Endless wait times and excessive procedural fuss—it’s all part of a tactic called “sludge.”
