1) the right believes in its own legitimacy and the inherent illegitimacy of anything on the left and 2) the right have a well funded media ecosystem devoted solely to stirring up controversy for Dem officials and apologizing for anything done by Reps.

If I were asked to list words and phrases key to understanding the decline and fall of our civilization, “dynamic pricing” would be among them.

"You can't let boys be boys these days" say the type of men whose behaviour as boys, and men, is a massive contributory factor to why there is ab attempt to break the cycle of misogyny, homophobia and racism passed down as "boys will be boys".

The desire for everything to be “simple” leading to treating very non simple things in a ridiculously simplistic way is a big part of what is killing us all

People swear their presidential oath of office publicly on a Bible because it’s believed that doing so will bind them to that oath because most people feel obligated to commit to a publicly declared oath before god and country. Not Trump. That’s the flaw in the system. No principles.

I feel cheated. Past authoritarian regimes at least had real artists producing their propaganda. We’re getting Ai slop instead.

There are 213 Democrats in the House of Representatives. Why is it that we only seem to hear from a handful? Is this not a crisis? I wish I had a bigger platform to call attention to what is happening and they seem to be sitting on their hands all day.

The only Twilight Fields album not on my main Bandcamp is one where I covered songs by acquaintances (and The Waterboys). I thought it a nice gesture. They mostly reacted with bemusement rather than pleasure. Ah, well, no good deed goes unpunished. twilightfields.bandcamp.com/album/our-st...

“Trump, will make America great again!” “Brawndo, it’s got electrolytes!” They’re not sure how Trump is going to make America great again other than to know he will, and that’s enough for a lot of people. It’s self evident. It’s self affirming. It’s circular in its assertions.

Trump calls it “beautification.” But it’s just stuffing the walls with paintings and filling every blank space with gold decor. It’s not an expression of style. It’s a formulaic understanding of beauty that equates more gold decor with more beauty; blank space is boring. youtu.be/dSXFcQJ7Eng?...

People obsessed with money and fame have zoomed right past all the things that make the rest of use truly happy… genuine human relationships, family bonds, personal and creative expression, just being human in this amazing planet… and are making it harder for the rest of us to enjoy our lives.

The people who thought the solution to COVID was to stop testing for it think that the solutions to climate change, sexism and racism is to force people to stop talking about them.

A cool thing for Dems to do would be to list conservative organizations they would revoke tax-exempt status for (on the entirely reasonable line that many are not real social welfare orgs and are not nonpartisan). Might concentrate the minds of some Federalist Society (501c3) members.

Yesterday, I received a call from a scientist I respect tremendously. She sounded so sad. She'd had to lay off her entire lab staff, and lost her funding for groundbreaking climate research overnight. This same thing is happening to so many people. It will set us back in ways we cannot calculate.

The Big Lie undergirding MAGA’s immigration posture is that immigrants are fundamentally parasitic, they just take from the host country. It’s a fascist conception and also just obviously wrong if you think about it for more than 10 seconds. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

Trump is correct in that he promised to do incredibly dumb things when he became president again. Now that he is doing them, people are like “Wait! This is dumb!!” We tried to warn y’all. It’s not too late to end this tragedy. Impeach and remove now.

I grew up in OK. My opposition to all things conservative stems from seeing how this ideology plays out in the real world. It’s bad people. They’ve run OK for decades now and it’s a very dysfunctional place. They want to take it nationwide.
