From Hunter S. Thompson’s ESPN page 2 column one week after 9/11.

I guess the Iranians just either didn’t have the ability to move stuff out of the obvious nuke sites, or they’re stupid, or our government is taking a victory lap for nothing.

Countries should absolutely find a way to not have any dealings with us. America is an insane asylum.

Spent part of last week reading about how Lincoln could have stopped slavery without killing hundreds of thousands and now I’m reading from those same people how bombing Iran is good. The internet.

I don’t know that I’ve met many, if any, Jesus followers: Those who live in solidarity with Jesus and those he was most focused on identifying with. I’ve mostly met religionists who chase pleasures and don’t care what means are used to accomplish their temporal goals. This is not what Jesus intends.

Everything the white evangelicals told me growing up to be worried about is actually happening to progressive christians and minority christians and so the white evangelicals are silent.

I took a gummy that wasn’t doing anything a couple nights ago and so I took another like 30 minutes later. I haven’t thought clearly in two days. Just now coming out of it.

"Illinois’ Dick Durbin, California’s Adam Schiff, and Rhode Island’s Sheldon Whitehouse spent more of their allotted time lauding Federalist Society judges for sometimes ruling against Trump than they did asking questions of Whitney Hermandorfer, the pending nominee to the 6th Circuit."

In writing, Trump's judicial nominees have all signaled their support for his election denier conspiracy theories, and their willingness to end birthright citizenship. But Senate Democrats didn't challenge the nominees on these answers when they had the chance. Most of them didn't even show up.

Oh my God. Nationalizing key industry by sleight of hand.

Yeah, obvious Marxist preaching evangelical Christianity overseas just like Marxist do all the time.

Political violence is not an incidental risk which they are merely negligent about managing and policing. It is their Schmittian central premise. Political violence against their enemies *is* the ideology itself. That's what illiberal populism is. There's no such thing as a peaceful form of it.

Only Internet real. All of life fake besides Internet. Internet all that remains.
