“You’re really so good to me.” Sometimes followed by an “I love you.”

I didn’t doubt she loved me, but I’ve never been sure if she meant it at that moment, or if it was part of her survival instinct— staying on my good side. A little bit battered wife syndrome, a little bit Stockholm Syndrome.
When She Says I Love You, My Heart Breaks
Does she mean it, or is it Stockholm Syndrome?

An Open Letter to the "Wokeness" of Topple and Burn,

Cruising your site this morning, I saw two necklaces supporting Palestine and none against anti-semitism. You support the disabled, women, the oppressed, the matriarchy, the marginalized.

You can't teach U.S. history without "divisive" narratives. Slavery wasn't "unifying." The Japanese incarceration wasn't "unifying." The anti-immigrant Operation Wetback (real name) wasn't "unifying."
It's history's job to tell the truth, not cover up past racism to pave the way for future racism.

Something about this stinks. A managed cease-fire so quickly? A retaliatory strike on a US military base in Qatar, the country that just gave Trump that ridiculous jet? And not retaliatory strike to US proper? And Iran pre-warned us about the airstrike? So no one was hurt?

Something is not kosher.

Trump has pretty good instincts about when he's going to be in trouble, politically or otherwise, so him explicitly giving himself plausible deniability now in his statements should be interpreted as an acknowledgment that he sees some danger in the policy in general & re Abrego Garcia specifically
Trump: "You're talking about Abrego Garcia -- is an illegal alien MS-13 gang member and foreign terrorist. This comes out of the State Department and very legitimate sources I assume. I'm just giving you what they handed to me but this is supposed to be certified stuff."

He:
- closed a wind farm that would've powered 1M+ homes & help NYS be fossil fuel-free by 2050.
- allowed commercial fishing in a marine protected zone, (home to endangered sea turtles & whales)
- promoting mining in our national parks.

Short-sighted. Selfish. Destructive. Greedy.

"In the end, his feelings about who he likes & who he hates are running the show. We are dealing with: A petty, vindictive man wielding great power to punish or reward people according to his emotions. It’s as if a child in the throes of the terrible twos were President of the United States."

Never in modern American history, have so many been abandoned by the few they elected to represent them.
Don't look down, they've removed the safety net
The MAGA societal wet dream is succeeding beyond their wildest dreams inside a government that is experiencing multiple points of structural failure. Where are the Democrats?
