Two months ago Greg Abbott pardoned a murderer who texted a friend "I might go to Dallas to shoot looters" then drove into a BLM protest in Austin and killed a protester. The universal response from conservatives to the pardon was "Yeah! Woo-hoo!" Now they say liberals should turn down the rhetoric

Stop telling us the political rhetoric is becoming too violent if you’re too cowardly to mention who, exactly, is making it so.

Hot take: I'm truly not interested in hand wringing over how much people will miss enjoying the books of men who have turned out to be abusers. I'm far more concerned about the missing art that women haven't been able to create/publish because they crossed paths with such men.

Our first Conspirituality episode of this year was a high-level breakdown of Project 2025. We've covered it 4 more times, and are currently working on 3 more for this month. You simply can't cover 920 pages in one shot, and details matter. youtu.be/zdTh1jmBd8k

today when i asked a bookseller to carry my book, the first thing he did was look up to see how many amazon reviews it had. there were two. 😟 if you want authors to keep making the work you enjoy, rate/review their books on amazon, goodreads, b&n, etc. it makes a difference!

The figures as of today are 275 Palestinian casualties, out of which more than half were women, children and elderly. Hundreds of wounded; dozens of houses destroyed.

I don't know how many Palestinian civilians were killed in the operation that rescued four Israeli hostages. But I do know that risking the soldiers and the hostages was a reckless decision when there is a real possibility of a comprehensive hostage deal. 1/

Libraries are one of the most radical social institutions we have, because they’re based on the idea that *everyone* has the right to information, for free. It’s also what makes them crucial to democracy. I will never stop yelling about this!

Poor people use libraries. Rich people shut them down because they don't *want* poor people to read.

If you’re ever unsure of if you’re doing something stupid romantically, take a large photo of Grace Jones and tell her what you’re doing. Explain to Ms Jones that you’re sad because you’re being ghosted by a mid ugly bartender who doesn’t own a bed frame. Go ahead. Tell her. See how that feels.
