just saw fox news chyron about the "shocking security failure" at trump's rally, which i assume they've been benghazi-ing about for days now. how can they complain someone had a gun? they want everyone to carry those guns in every mcdonald's and walmart! (answer: only rich people deserve security)
Psst:
Project 2025 is terrifying for a lot of reasons but also because on page 5 it calls for teachers and librarians who grant access to books that are maligned as pornography (which just means anything LGBTQ) to be registered as sex offenders.
Pass it on.
From the JD Vance (Senate) campaign website. JD Vance would ban every single woman (or girl) from receiving an abortion, no matter the circumstances by which she was impregnated or the danger to her health. Maybe (just maybe) if she risks imminent death.
The Republican Party has nominated a man for Vice President who says he would have ended American democracy if he’d had that role in 2021. abcnews.go.com/Politics/jd-...
That Vance is a direct line to Thiel and Andreessen is truly important. Trump wants their money. Thiel wants to sell billions in Palantir contracts to power Trump’s mass surveillance/ethnic cleansing infrastructure. Pence was the Christian Nationalists’ guy. Vance is reactionary capital’s.
Fascism is some intellect-bypassing primate brain shit, as we were warned. Dems anonymously telling the press it's over aren't making realistic political calculations, they're experiencing near-religious awe that someone came for the big man and then the big man stood up and made his angriest face.

in 2013 I saw a man get a 100,000 hour probation on the SomethingAwful forums and today I saw him come off probation and immediately pick up the same argument, quoting a reply from 2013, absolute next-level hater, I can't even imagine, my man is the Count of Monte Posters
this book may be the first to make me interested in reading something about george washington and all that boring crap since pynchon's mason & dixon... it frames the pre-US as a baffling conradian dark snafu. (a strategy brilliantly designed to intrigue me personally, dunno about others)
Miss her, too, very much. Hoping she's finding every tiny bubble of plant-dog-cooking-sea-joy despite, well, all of everything.
Too-hard world is too hard. Wordless here, quietly hoping all the people I think kindly about ten times a day somehow, somehow feel it.
just speaking from a person-reading-the-news-on-their-phone perspective, al jazeera's coverage have been the best i've been looking at since this started. cnn would have, like, a nonsensical little article with "the building was over trump's right shoulder"(?) while a.j. had a timeline of facts
when I quit my career as a political reporter the day after Super Tuesday 2016 at the age of 29 people were very surprised and always wanted to know why and without fail my first response was “I didn’t want to die at a Donald Trump rally.”
finally got super mario wonder - i didn't like last few generations of 2d super marios on 3ds, wii and wii u - boring, kind of hard... but wonder is good! feel like they used some design ideas from the "super mario 3d world / land" games, which were excellent.
flies like brown flowers... that checks out. and i definitely think i had seen somewhere that bees can't see the color red & don't care about red flowers
