Omar El Akkad's One Day, Everyone will have Always Been Against This has won the National Book Award. This is a deserving, necessary win. His words need to be on all of our minds and in all of our hearts.

This is a long-to-medium-term worry, but I think the fact that we've all just internalized that immeasurably powerful people often just throw tantrums and you shouldn't take anything they say seriously is going to be catastrophic for American civic governance going forward indefinitely.
sort of underlining how dysfunctional and unfocused the administration is, the president tweets out a deadly serious allegation of sedition and calls for hanging sitting senators and the DOJ’s official course of action is to do nothing, no one’s in charge
“Oh damn, the president ordered the murder of his political opponents” is super bad and to a large extent so is “nobody under him lifted one single finger toward that goal” because who is exercising the power of the presidency at that point?

in its latest scumbag move, google added nebulous "smart" features you can only use when you consent to let them scrape all your data, added a "when you check this box we get all your personal data" box in settings, then, in an act of generosity, ticked it for themselves and didn't tell users.

This is one of my favorite comics stores in the entire country, and due to the pandemic and some other issues, it is asking for a bit of help. I hope you go look and spread the word, donate a little bit (or a lot) if you can.
I'm going to donate some in the morning, hope you will consider it, too.

These articles always depend on a bizarre Schroedinger's Seattle: The city is falling apart due to progressive overreach but we should have re-elected the conservative non-socialist who has been in charge for the last four years.

“Short bursts indicate an ICE sighting. Long whistles indicate agents making arrests. If you hear the whistle and you’re undocumented, said [Whitney Hu, a community activist and organizer with South Brooklyn Mutual Aid], ‘you hide. And if you’re somebody who’s not, you go to the street.’”
As ICE Street Raids Ramp Up, New Yorkers Stock Up On Whistles
Taking a cue from Chicago, community groups have distributed thousands of whistles in recent weeks — a grassroots system people in other cities have adopted to help neighbors sound the alarm.

We took on a powerful incumbent who was expected to coast to reelection.
We faced more corporate PAC money than has ever been spent attacking a candidate in a Seattle election.
We built a people-powered movement rooted in hope for our city’s future.
And we won.
This is YOUR city!

This race had a "Dewey defeats Truman" moment when Election Desk HQ prematurely called the race for Mayor Bruce Harrell. One Reddit user made a parody.
That proved incorrect as Wilson closed an eight-point gap from earlier results.

The notion abusers need to resort to conspiracies and subterfuge is more comforting than the truth that many people will readily look the other way when confronted with sexual violence if doing otherwise would even slightly inconvenience them
Pizzagate: If you replace the word “hot dog” with “little boy” and “pizza party” with “child sex orgy,” you will see the lengths these elites go to cover up their crimes.
Real elite emails: Send me nude pictures of those 8th graders we abused last weekend post-haste! I am the Ambassador to Turkey.
