It’s going to be a long hot summer that will feel like it went in a flash once the leaves turn.
I think things are going to start to happen faster now. I'd be lying if I said I knew how it was going to end, but one thing I feel sure of is, this interview didn't end it.

The world protest-by-not-voting will get us.
I’m sure as Trump and company are leveling Gaza to make room for Kushner’s beachfront resort plan, Palestinians will be absolutely thrilled to know that Joe Biden ate shit and some younger Democrats are promising if they ever somehow get back in power it’ll be maybe possibly better. Brilliant.

From this date in 2018. My folks often went with me to Twins games on my birthday if the Twins were in town.

Is there a specific store/chain that sells nice fabric curtains? With Bed/Bath/Beyond gone, I'm not sure where people buy these. Do not say the internet, I promise I am aware of the internet. I want a store where I can see the fabric, thank you.

This post appeared randomly in my feed and I feel like I just walked past a fascinating conversation happening at a different table in the same restaurant. Bsky does this well in its best moments.
I taught an Intro to Native American Studies in 1997 or 98. We were living near Montevideo at the time. I had Graham Greene’s nephew in my class, so that was kind of fun.

We need to talk a lot more about Democratic Party elites. And, I’m not just talking about Super Delegates.

We should expect that Farage will use is alliance with the MAGA movement and trump to raise his profile and exert pressure on everyone as he tries to elevate his Reform Party. Trump may choose to deal more directly with him than the Labour government. Just a thing to watch and feel worried about.

@countbinface.bsky.social for the win!
The best thing about British democracy is when the actual head of government has to stand in a leisure centre at 5 am beside a guy with a bin on his head to find out if he still has a job.
