I am almost done with Ulysses so I decided it was the perfect time to start the Power Broker.
(I have about 129 pages of Ulysses left and I am going to finish it before the end of the year because I can’t start another year without having finished this book I swear to god)

my (relatively) low effort Christmas Eve meal was scalloped potatoes, a Caesar salad, a NY strip steak and some charred string beans. I also made cinnamon rolls for dessert.
Lots of lessons I think but everything turned out delicious.

finally put up and decorated our Christmas tree. All of the ribbons were handmade by my little sibling. Also features Polaroids from the last few years. The only real ornament is an ornament of our orange cat. 🐈

have had a few hard weeks and most of everything feels complicated but I just spent six hours cooking for someone I love & feeling close to someone is an antidote for so much.
(I made Korean braised short ribs with potatoes and carrots + a spinach salad with tons of fall elements)

this was a really powerful approach to questioning noem—bringing the actual people impacted by her reign of terror. from her perch it's easy to see these cases as abstractions but she needs to be confronted with them at every turn.
MAGAZINER: How many veterans have you deported?
NOEM: We haven't deported veterans
