Has anyone ever watched a cat eat? Like, really? The fact that their mouths have no cheeks to keep food in for chewing alone is a very big clue.

Since I have processed it, At The Gates was a good movie. It was tense, had me thinking about a situation from different angles. It brought back feelings I had when I read The Reformatory. Protection, taking risks, helplessness, wanting people to be safe.

It occurred to me that firing thousands of highly skilled, highly knowledgeable people, some of whom had access to highly secret information, and now have grievances and an urgent need for money, might be considered a security risk. Like, a big one.

Just look at these paragraphs from the AP story. Hegseth called Brown unqualified solely because he's Black. Then they fired him... and replaced him with a white guy so indisputably unqualified that he requires a Presidential waiver. This is what "merit" means to them. apnews.com/article/trum...

This really blessed me. When I was little, my mom always treated me like I was the worst kid ever. Nevermind that I was a straight A student & my teachers doted on me. So when I was sad, Id tell myself I was a good kid & I didnt deserve what was happening to me.

As I mentioned in this piece, the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff was who Trump turned to in 2020 when he asked, "Can't you just shoot [the protesters]?"

He probably thinks joint chief is like the lord of weed or something.

This is climate arson, yes, but also the entire value proposition of Tesla, the reason for its insane stock price, is that it would end up the Amazon of electric cars: the only real game in town. Killing off non-Tesla electric car infrastructure is a gift to Musk.

NEW: Northern Ireland’s First Minister, Michelle O’Neill, announces she is boycotting White House events in response to Trump’s policy on Gaza. There are deep ties between Northern Ireland, the US & the Presidency forged during the peace process. Ties Trump is clearly shredding.

After the Brown v. Board decision, white people across the South opened hundreds of private schools. 70 years later, most of the ones still open in Alabama’s Black Belt remain overwhelmingly white. In this town, one school keeps kids divided. (Published May 2024)
