Four old Jewish men are sitting in a cafe. “Oy,” says the first man. “Oy vey,” says the second man. “Oy vey iz mir,” says the third man. The fourth man snaps: “if you don’t stop talking about politics, I’m walking out!”

I will bang this drum forever: in THEY THOUGHT THEY WERE FREE: THE GERMANS, 1933-45 Milton Mayer interviewed 10 ordinary Germans after WW2 to learn how fascism took hold. There was never a moment when everyone woke up:
if you’re waiting for everyone around you to wake up, you’ll wait forever. this is how the people grinding our bones to make their bread WANT you to be. paralyzed, alienated & purposeless

Let’s look on the bright side: if you’re a criminal defense attorney the options you can give your clients just expanded to be “take the plea, go to trial, or run for president as a Republican.”

I have done a lot of challenging things in my life. Trying to get consistent feedback from vexillology and heraldry experts is climbing up the rankings, however.

@xelartz.bsky.social did this piece, commissioned to help him fund some storm chasing (but let’s face it, I’ve been lurking in ambush for his slots for a while). He wanted to use his Eclipse background, I was eager to let him Character is my wife’s sona, Reina, as Sailor Mercury.

Great Washington Post nostalgia study. Adults think U.S. society was historically nicest and comfiest—most moral and close-knit, families happiest—whenever they happened to be little kids, and culture (music, movies, TV, fashion, sports, food) best whenever they were adolescents. wapo.st/3WXd9xS
