if I wanted to read some nonfiction about the relationship of the US and El Salvador, does anyone have a recommendation? looking for 20th-c history with an eye to the 21st, I think. books or longform journalism

Credit where credit’s due, this is the most meaningful thing a Dem politician has done since Trump slithered back into office. Now bring him home!

this is such good news. i think it is also an opportunity for democrats to state forthrightly that when they win power again everyone responsible for this crime will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law and will face the american people to answer for their lawlessness

This is hilarious: eight-time Olympic gold medalist Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce competed in the 100m race against the other parents at her son’s sports day and completely demolished them. Elite athletes are incredible. [kottke.org]

And yet queer authors continue to include positive references to HP in their books. I cannot understand it. Even if you manage to separate the art from the artist in your heart & can still love it, bolstering the artistic legacy of someone who hates trans women this much, in your own work? How? Why?

also in this morning's foray into Xitter: the discovery that I have an unused-since-2016 "professional" account still up on the site, one I would love to delete, but I can't log in because Xitter automatically sends a one-time code to an email of mine that no longer exists

so I'm in a community choir and we sing rock and pop, and years ago we sang an XTC song and somehow Andy Partridge saw the video and tweeted about enjoying it. last night a fellow choir member asked if I could find the tweet so we could print and frame it, but I think it's been deleted :(

There’s a real link between AI writing and Silicon Valley meal replacement drinks and the entire fuckin swath of maximizing the human experience and it’s that they view pleasure as being unhelpful to life. I don’t want a drink that replaces a meal, I don’t want a book summary, I want to savor things

Critical info both for US folks traveling out of the country and for international folks coming here, which I think should be avoided if you can, tbh.

/not/ the same idea, but this line always makes me think of General Sheridan saying "if I owned Texas and Hell both, I would rent Texas and live in Hell"

not as pithy as Churchill's "if Hitler invaded Hell I would make at least a favourable reference to the devil in the House of Commons," but, y'know, same idea

I think a lot about the fact that when you have an FMC who’s fat, and is very wary of conventionally handsome men, or sceptical about their intentions, often people will default to this is her being down on herself, and not this is because men like that are often unpleasant in that way.

We need something tropical to change the mood around here. Here’s an image from my first rainforest cat encounter, which occurred in 2008 with a family of pumas in Costa Rica.
