They want you to blame others.
They want you to lose hope.
They want you to be afraid.
They want you to give up.
They want you to obey.
Don't.

The Friends episode where Joey reads Little Women has as its initial premise the idea that he only reads Stephen King novels not classics
I rewatched FRIENDS & was struck at the multitude of establishing shots in scenes where one of the gang is sitting in their apartment reading a contemporary fiction novel

I am pleased to announce that I have commandeered my neighbor's home. This home will be sold at its Market Price, and that money will be controlled by me, to ensure it is used to benefit my neighbor and me! Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Look at the chairs they had to sit in. 😭
Trump spent 16 days at Mar-a-Lago over the holidays relaxing and golfing. He made the decision to bomb Venezuela from his resort, not the situation room. The MAGAts use to shit their pants when Biden went to the beach for the weekend. Where’s the outrage now? 🙄

A cultural thing that really does bother me is how some YouTube channels lose views every year and some get a billion views because of a YouTube secret formula that no one understands and it seems very arbitrary so everyone’s best guess is to constantly be open mouthed pointing at something

I’m sick of “what’s in it for us?” when we talk about providing aid overseas. Our foreign policy should have two primary goals:
1) Maintaining stability and security
2) Uplifting the material conditions of human beings in need of support
Why? Because it’s the right thing to do.

Looking back on January 6 at all the Republicans who disavowed Trump and his insurrection who are now operating as loyalist sycophants for his lawless administration is truly something.

Five years ago, AOC and I hid in my barricaded office as a mob of insurrectionists broke into the Capitol at Donald Trump's bidding.
With Trump back in power, the threat he poses to our democracy has never been greater. We fought back then—and won. This year, we'll do it again.

Two things can be true:

Trump’s invasion of Venezuela has nothing to do with helping Venezuelans & everything to do with Trump’s own power.

This exactly. Interventionism in Latin America is the entirety of the 20th century. Just look at Panama.
But Trump's illegal move goes far beyond that and signals what Putin and Xi are preparing for.

So “a million more documents” is now “roughly 5.2 million pages of Epstein files documents”
And they’re “seeking to enlist about 400 lawyers” to do doc review, which means they don’t even have the people yet to get it done
Trump & Pamela Jo are just slow-walking the shit out of violating the law.
