I think a lot about this quote from Anaïs Nin’s diary from 1939-1944:

“America is in even greater danger because of its cult of toughness, its hatred of sensitivity, and someday it may have to pay a price for this, because atrophy of feeling creates criminals”.

It's the national year of reading in the uk in 2026. Instead of asking "why don't kids read any more", ask "how can I help them find the stories (and non fic) they will fall in love with". Less "get off my lawn whippersnappers" and more "come, sit on the lawn, here's a comic".

“Can’t believe NYC elected a Muslim as mayor.”

In truth—a Black American Christian woman swearing in a Ugandan American Muslim of South Asian ethnicity as his Syrian American wife holds the Qurans he swears in on, all while standing on the steps of a subway station—is the most NYC thing imaginable.

This unbelievably dim loser thinks he comes off well in this video, as he tries to force his way into a daycare.

The employee asks “what department” they’re from, and he says “we are from ourselves” — because being an entitled white man empowers you to act like a vigilante, apparently?
uhhh yeah I can see why these childcare properties weren't eager to let in some rando dudes asking "where are the kids?"

When people behave in ways that appear out of sync with their stated values, that's hypocrisy.

What we’ve collectively witnessed is also a classic psychological phenomenon: cognitive dissonance.

It pitts values against structural beliefs.

Why Politics Makes Us Bend Our Own Values
Cognitive dissonance drives us to bend our values in politics. Learning to face it with curiosity can turn hypocrisy into growth and connection.

“Did you believe you had sufficient evidence to obtain and sustain a conviction against Donald Trump for interference with the lawful transfer of power?”

CNN: “Surely you don’t think a daycare should be unlocked.”

SHIRLEY: “There should be a reception area.”

CNN: “No, every day care is locked.”

SHIRLEY: “Fair point.” 🤔

He shows up to a day care with masked men and wonders why they don’t let him in.

Smith: He was getting calls from people he trusts, people he relies on—and he still refused to come to the aid of the people at the Capitol. That’s very important evidence for criminal intent in our case.

“I think this rollout, first of all, was never meant to be a rollout. It was meant to be a hard deadline. But it’s done a number on all of us because it’s just been handled so sloppily, and names have not been redacted when they should have been.”

Half way through the Jack Smith transcript and it’s become abundantly clear why Jim Jordan didn’t want public testimony. Jordan spends a lot of time whining about the toll subpoenas, and Jack Smith shuts him down every time.

DOJ missed the Epstein files deadline and now admits it’s drowning in 5.2 MILLION pages. Hundreds of lawyers scrambling after the fact. Deadlines blown. NO transparency!

More excuses secrecy, and “trust us.”

Release the files. All of them. Now.

If we’ve learned anything these past few years, it's that:

1) Workers keep America going, not billionaires
2) Corporate profits don't trickle down to workers
3) Poverty is a policy choice
4) Health care is a human right
5) Strikes work

Let's keep fighting for a better world.
