So it turns out Pete Hegseth lied. And Michael Waltz lied. And Tulsi Gabbard lied. And also lied to Congress while under oath. And John Ratliffe lied. And also lied to Congress while under oath. And as ever Jeffrey Goldberg and the Atlantic were telling the truth. This is why journalism matters.

Just finished rereading Charlotte Brontë's Villette, & this time round, its ending strikes me as one of the most romantic ever, maybe b/c I inhabit an age of hiring freezes & academic precarity. M. Paul loves Lucy Snowe, & to demonstrate it, he gives her a classroom in which to teach. Swoon! #19thc

Trump says Canadians are "nasty." He is trying so hard to build a narrative around a whole country of human beings. Not true about trees but pretty sure some folks will believe him. But yeah, we regulate the exploitation of our environment. You literally need trees to breathe dumbass.
