It would seem there are very few mistakes

What’s plentiful, it seems to me now, is a lot of lack of support

And when people fall through the cracks of not having the support they need, it’s called a mistake—to point to individual responsibility rather than the failing systems we all inhabit

Notice how the popular media narrative has moved on, while people on the ground in Minneapolis are still struggling and crying out that things are as bad as ever. This is how fascist regimes operate — overreach, recalibration, normalization. Get louder, not quieter.

We are told the president always travels with the nuclear football

But what if all the nuclear football does is start The Diasporic War that brings on total planetary extinction?

As a Crystal Palace fan, I find the resounding disappointment of Tottenham fans interesting!

(No shade)

I don’t even expect Palace to finish top 10 this year and yet I feel I’m happier than any Tottenham fan right now

Do my team and I just suffer from the soft bigotry of low expectations?

Democrats BLAST this or that other thing!

Democrats PEN strongly-worded letter!

Democrats SEAL a deal that contains nothing they barely stood up for!

I’m scared watching Shrinking on AppleTV will trigger my grief

I’m curious about the show, but I don’t want to end up in the doldrums

A pickup is a pickup, not a truck

A Ford F150 is a truck—a misnomer, yes, but I’ll allow it

A U-haul truck is actually a small lorry, not a truck

A semi is a semi, so please don’t call it a semi truck. They’re usually either tankers or trailers, the erstwhile if they’re ferrying fluid or gas

I’m curious:

if someone asked you to define what a mood is without looking up the definition, how would you define it?

Always a great sign for how things are going in your country when 21-year-olds are like “hey, I innovated a system to play bagpipes in tear gas”
Jack Duffy attaches a respirator to his bagpipes to play through tear gas. “I always play it whenever the police retreat because it's like, ‘You fucking ran while we stayed,’” he says.
