I wrote about Senate Dems’ proposed “reforms,” which range from superficial to likely unenforceable to actively harmful; the grip billionaire-backed anti-“abolish” Groups have over Washington and the conspicuous absence of any attempt to touch DHS’s obscene budget.
Senate Democrats’ DHS "Reforms" Shaping Up To Be Another Kneeling Kente Cloth Moment
“Body cams,” vague demands of “accountability,” but no attempt to cut DHS's obscene budget is a recipe for status quo maintenance.

My gf described all of human history as “what the dog doing?” bc in every era of history, in all art either as the subject or in the margins, you can see a dog doing things. Mostly the kind of things you see contemporary dogs doing. This changed my worldview
May as well dive right in.
Did you know that dogs in ancient Mesopotamia also refused to drop the ball?
According to a Sumerian proverb, “The dog understands ‘Take it!’ It does not understand ‘Put it down!’”

I don’t think we should make concessions to the Masked Murderers Guild of America. I don’t think we should compromise so the Masked Murderers Guild of America stops using kidnapped kids from schools as bait. I thought this was already illegal. The Masked Murderers Guild of America should not exist.

Remember when Hannibal Buress outed himself as a landlord? Remember when Jane Lynch got weird about plumbers in her house? Remember celebrities aren't your friends, they're a fragile veneer over the monster forever grasping at what they dimly remember as human emotions, human wants, human conduct.
