things are very bad right now, but the US also has advantages that other backsliding democracies haven't. the best example of this imo is our bafflingly decentralized elections system: there is literally no way for the federal govt to "cancel" a midterm election, bc the feds don't run elections

Not to harp on about that anglerfish or anything, but: “wildly concerning evidence of floundering oceanic current interpreted as inspirational metaphor by clueless public” is just the most :chef’s kiss: thing for 2025

I am extremely freaking thrilled to announce that Bad Company is officially available for preorder wherever you buy books. (I am linking to Bookshop but buy it wherever!) I worked so, so hard on this book, and it would mean a ton to me if you ordered it. bookshop.org/a/109816/978...
