The morning after mass layoffs, The Washington Post publishes this as their lead editorial. The owner and publisher clearly have no idea why they are losing subscribers. Meanwhile they have destroyed a storied brand.

And on the pedestal, these words appear:
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal Wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings;
Look on my Works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay

This remarkable fact caught my eye in a piece that I don't otherwise agree with "One remarkable fact is that today.. customs officers and Border Patrol agents have committed crimes at a per capita rate that is greater than the crime rate for people who immigrated here illegally" tinyurl.com/2bkkc22b

“burn the entire democracy down and start over” is an opinion equivalent to “apocalyptic times are good because the rapture is coming and I’ll go to heaven” in that it’s a way people give themselves permission to do none of the complex and difficult things that would make things a little better now

This is so worth your 2 minutes and 18 seconds today
Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

So far, only two have spoken up in favor of the concentration camp. The crowd booed the hell out of them. The mayor told people to stop booing and they booed him too.

Ten years on from 2016 and people still have not internalized that a vote isn't an endorsement, nor a reward for politicians with good mouth noises. A vote is a lever of power, and the only one that you, the voter, have direct and unmitigated access to.
Sitting out elections is dereliction.

one of the dangers of living your entire life on the internet is that you start to think that the internet is your life and that it is the whole world and that means something as relatively easy to comprehend as a "movie" can take on enormous, terrifying proportions

The US immigrant population generated more in taxes than they received in benefits from all levels of government every year from 1994 to 2023.
The Cato study provides the first-ever 30-year analysis of the fiscal effects of immigration on government budgets.

You people who live east of the Mississippi have zero idea how great 100% vote by mail is.
Last week I got a local school levy. Kim and I talked to the kids about what it does, and they helped me put my ballot into the box.
Helluva deal. Helluva deal.

i am very genuinely mad as fuck about this, they managed to fuck up more than a thousand dollars worth of my shit because of fucking sloppy shitass development and engineering
another couple of cool things about this pants-shitting iOS release is that my watch now runs out of battery at 10PM (this was not a problem before the upgrade, we are night owls) and my mini can’t actually load the kindle app, which is one of the primary reasons it exists in my home
