Now that blood is on the street, we still won’t admit you’ve been right all decade long while we scolded and marginalized you. Instead, we’ll declare it’s just now become right to say such things.
"Recent events have brought Trump’s governing style into sharper focus," Jonathan Rauch argues. "'Fascist' best describes it, and reluctance to use the term has now become perverse." theatln.tc/wVq7MFaa

“Everyone should be allowed to carry a gun for their safety but the government can murder you in the street if you have a gun” is an incredible endpoint for the conservative moment

This is EVERYWHERE today. Please stop giving people bad advice. If wearing juggalo makeup and putting pebbles in your shoes even worked 10 years ago, they certainly don’t work now
I can't believe I have to say this, but please do not take revolutionary OPSEC advice from YA novels Cory Doctorow wrote almost twenty years ago.

Minneapolis is consistently rated one of the best places to live, we largely avoided the pandemic bump in rents, and 95% of our residents live within a 10 minute walk of a park.
oooooh so scary.
oooooh so scary.
wild to be running for president, and you're dropping in on various parts of the country you want to lead and announcing “this part sucks shit”

VP nominee JD Vance just held a press conference outside the shuttered Third Precinct in Minneapolis. He painted Minneapolis as a city in decline and said, “The story of Minneapolis is coming to every community across the [U.S.] if we promote Kamala Harris to president.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hlx6oefypliizxxuqf435awt/bafkreifbhfqnhkaruj2ersw56m6vvxzmigh6tr3alp2kl5ga2f5znsxuyu@jpeg)

Can we talk for a second about how everything from Calvin & Hobbes profile pics to window decals involve people being weird sociopaths when that comic was all about the joy of life and connection?

Pecans also taste way better, eat more pecans
Nuts are an major part of Thanksgiving. The climate crisis has to be addressed at the global level, but consumer choice plays a role. One thing we can do is switch from almonds (R in photo) to pecans (L). Both are similar in nutrition, but it is water use and geography that makes a difference. 🌍 1/4

In 2009, Avenue Q went on tour posing the harsh question "What do you do with a BA in English?" to America.
A lot of handwringing about the decline of the humanities. As @xphilosopher.bsky.social has shown, the reason we are suffering academically is lack of interest by students. Xphilosopher posted this picture and it's crystal clear: interest cratered since 2010.

Yeah man our failure to do this after Appomattox led to 90 years of a one-party apartheid terror state that we barely dismantled while my parents were kids so I’m fine with making up for lost time
