How many of the DOGE kids have probably already been turned by foreign intelligence services, at this point? They have no oversight, wide access, limited experience, dubious ethics, might be cash-strapped, could be blackmailed, hauling their laptops from agency to agency like a malware patient zero

Anyway while everyone is looking lemme say go watch S1 of The Terror it explains the current moment entirely

This is, I think, the core of the emotional experience of the current moment. Watching people we knew to be kind, loving, & thoughtful slowly shift & then full-tilt drop into hateful, petty, backwards evil. People I thought were giants turned out to be gullible, small, & sad. Nearly demoralizing.

This speaks to how your average trump voter isn't a guy in a Skynard tank top working on his engine in the front yard of his trailer, it's a guy who owns all the truck dealerships and semi refuel stations in the tri-county area who lives in a gated community but thinks he's a Yellowstone-type

I don't know how to explain to people that resistance is not comfortable or safe. The point of protesting is putting yourself on the line. You're gonna die of something anyway.

It's absolutely insane that Elon Musk and his wrecking crew are saying they're firing entire swaths of our government infrastructure and the press are just like "oh that's sad but what are you gonna do, guess they're fired." It is batshit crazypants, and it's being covered like normal policy choices

MAGA got so mad that white people had to share some power with non-whites and is straight up nuking the US's international status.

Cyberpunk got so much right. But one thing it got wrong was "in the future, corporations are the muscular power that shapes reality, and states are nearly irrelevant." On the contrary, tech corporations prove incredibly ductile — falling over themselves with eagerness to propitiate state power.

Just saw a horror writer I really love post asking for emergency donations and just... ugh. Writing for magazines used to be a reliable gig. Stephen King had a trailer and kids on freelance magazine gigs in the 60s and now it's $10 per feature. You can wrote for 3 magazines and it's a hobby.
