In retrospect, it was inevitable. It's like Brexit or Donald Trump's clinching of the presidency: first, you hear that it happened; then, even if you wanted it to happen you're shocked. These people aren`t supposed to be calling the shots. They're déclassé outsiders, drunk on atavistic rage and viciously abusive toward their foes such people are destined to be at the fringe, not the hub of power. And yet, when you stop mumbling your disbelief, you're stuck with the reality that it happened, that an ancient seal has been broken and you start to see all the forces that broke it. Soon, you're kicking yourself for not seeing this certainty sooner. Jesus, you think. It really happened. They really released the Snyder Cut.

I should come clean about my interest in the traditions of the Epiphany: it also happens to be my birthday, and I am more than ready to follow French tradition by eating this. The galette itself is si...

I was trained in the Fred Friendly Newsroom at Columbia and even as students we would not have been this unprepared and smug. Generations of CBS Newsmen are rolling in their graves. that's what they called them, cbs newsmen. not sure how many women they finally hired. doesn't matter anymore

this is bonbon, my sister's cat. bonbon guards the bathroom door while she's in there with eyes shooting death darts that say even though he's a plus sized cat he will fuck you up if you come too close.

Russia propped up Venezuela. Wagner are flown there when there's unrest. Will there be Russian/US joint military operations to occupy the country? Did Putin give Venezuela, with the world's largest oil reserves, to the US in exchange for Ukraine, a former occupied crown jewel of the Russian empire?

Best thing I’ve read this morning, from a human rights lawyer in Mexico. Translation is in the ALT-text.
Twitter thread in Spanish by José Mario de la Garza, a human rights lawyer in Mexico, translated using Google Translate: 1. Overthrowing a dictator sounds morally right. No one mourns a tyrant. But international law wasn't built to protect the good, but to restrain the powerful. That's why it prohibits force almost without exception: not because it ignores injustice, but because it knows that if each country decides whom to "liberate" by force, the world reverts to the law of the strongest. 2. The problem is not Maduro. The problem is the precedent. When military force is used to change governments without clear rules, sovereignty ceases to be a limit and becomes an obstacle. Today it is “overthrowing a dictator”; tomorrow it will be “correcting an election,” “protecting interests,” “restoring order.” The law does not absolve dictatorships, but neither does it legitimize unilateral crusades. Cont’d: 3. The uncomfortable question is not whether a tyrant deserves to fall, but who decides when and how. Because history teaches something brutal: removing a dictator is easy; building justice afterward is not. And when legality is broken in the name of good, what almost always follows is not freedom, but chaos, violence, and new victims. The law exists to remind us of this, even when it makes us uncomfortable. Maduro isn't the problem: he's the face of the problem. Removing him from power would be merely opening the door. Behind him is the machine: Rodríguez, Cabello, the military command, the operators of repression and plunder. If you only change the person at the top and leave the system intact, what follows isn't democracy: it's a reshuffling. And there's something even more difficult: Chavismo didn't just capture institutions, it captured daily life. Economy, media, bureaucracy, employment, fear, favors, blackmail. A country can't be "de-Chavistaized" by decree or by an electoral miracle. The real transition begins when that network is broken without setting the country ablaze. The challenge is enormous, and it's also a moral one: to unite without vengeance, but without impunity. Targeted justice for those most responsible, truth for the victims, guarantees that the rest will dismantle the system, and a plan for people to live again—not just survive. Because freedom doesn't come with a new president: it comes when the state ceases to be a threat.
