Being is an awe-inducing gift. Accept it. Own it. Give it away for others.

I gaze into the blue sky and am overcome by the dizziness of freedom to choose my own-most feeds.

Reading around for a pod I'm recording tomorrow I came across this classic episode of @chrislhayes.bsky.social's pod where we dug into America's epistemic crisis. Tons of gems in here. And boy has everything on this front gotten *much* worse since 2018...

HOPE WALZ: “What world are we f*cking living in? I draw the line at Gus. You people are f*cking disgraceful.”

She says MAGA loyalists are now driving by their home and yelling “R*tard!” at her family and her special needs brother after Trump called GovTimWalz the R word.

Friday Night: Deep dish pizza from employee-owned local pizzeria, hazy IPA from a local brewery. I like the escape to my little annoying bubble.

Democrats need to lay the groundwork for reform by attacking the villains on the Supreme Court - loudly, angrily, personally, relentlessly. And they should start now.

Democrats Need to Treat the Supreme Court Like the Villain It Is
The Court is out of control, and we'll never see reform unless we build the case for it. Starting now.

An entire room full of powerful old white people smiling and laughing as the president dehumanizes black immigrants and the first black president.

Just fucking pathetic.
Trump, continued: "What the Somalian people have done to Minnesota is not even believable. It’s not even believable. And a lot of it starts with the governor. A lot of it starts with Barack HUSSEIN Obama, because that’s when people started coming in... They want to kiss our country good night."

The President is actively dying right next to his team of simps yelling about what a Big Strong Leader Man he is. Just sitting there, eyes closed, croaking in front of our eyes.
Trump dozes while Marco Rubio speaks to him directly next to him. Just insane optics.

The Orban playbook: use the regulatory powers of the state to ensure media is owned by your allies who turn it into propaganda for the regime.

Here’s Trump intervening to help his ally Ellison’s bid for Warner Bros (and CNN).

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

Trump administration officials are 100% absolutely going to order the murder of American citizens at some point, in addition to people overseas, and every single one of these people needs to know that they will be held accountable, and hopefully it’s spend the rest of their lives in prison for this.

Pete Hegseth is Secretary of Defense *because* he championed war criminals. Literal war criminals convicted of heinous offenses in US courts martial. Got Trump to pardon some in term 1.

Not in spite of, because.

That's what Trump appointed, and what 50 GOP Senators (plus Vance) voted to confirm.

The President of the United States promising a policy of mass denaturalization of citizens "who undermine domestic tranquility"
Trump: “I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries … denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization.“

Insulting to have to point this out, but if you have spent even 30 minutes reading US history, you realize that every decade has been dominated by racist hysteria that the "new" people won't ever fit in.

This exact prejudice would have been applied to Miller's forebears, when they fled pogroms.
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization
