You will NEVER appease the fascists. You will only be met with moving goalposts. But each time you preemptively comply, you're laying the groundwork for worse and not just to others but to yourself. www.columbiaspectator.com/news/2025/03...

We could maybe try to pull something together fast if you wanted to. Let me know if you want to do a quick call tomorrow or maybe just DM or email me some of the topics you've been working on?

Their date is wearing cufflinks in 90 degree weather (we’re sitting outside) and talking about karate.
