Sometimes we need a moment, but if you tune out completely, they win. Fascism doesn’t need your support, just your silence.

Much like "crab", industrial music is constantly re-evolving from first principles basically anywhere where there's a bunch of metal and plastic laying about

Welcome to the USA of 2025, where condemning genocide is deemed antisemitism and can get you deported, but building concentration camps and calling bankers ‘Shylocks’ doesn’t get condemned by the news media at all.

This. But for everything
Harvard correctly understands that it’s in a fight for its life and there is no appeasement that will save it. I wish a lot more institutions understood this.
Harvard was able to file a 72 page complaint less than 24 hours after Trump attacked foreign students. Guess they were expecting it

After being inspired by Trump's brilliant tariff calculations, this is how I'm doing my taxes this year. I'm taking my adjusted gross income divided by my social security number, and that's what I'm paying in.

Something is fundamentally wrong with America when millions of dollars can’t buy you a Wisconsin Supreme Court seat, the respect of your children, the silence of your baby mammas, or a functional penis implant.

scrap the cap!
A worker making $50,000 a year contributes to Social Security with 100% of their income.
A CEO making $20 million a year contributes to Social Security with less than 1% of their income.
Who agrees it’s time to scrap the cap?

get all your social security questions answered (well, maybe not all.... and, um, maybe not answered.... but it should be a good discussion anyway...)
I’ve been avoiding it but here’s my promise to do an AMA at 35k followers, so let’s see how long it takes to get there!!!!

I think there might be a world wide market for those “hats”
This is how the Swiss chose to protest against Donald Trump this week at Basel Fasnacht, Switzerland's largest annual carnival.

A reminder in dark times: kindness, mercy, decency, and respect towards the least of us enrages Trumpists. It burns them. It’s like a mirror that shows them how they fall short of humanity.
Kindness and decency towards the people Trumpists hate is not just right; it torments Trumpists.

we need the LRNP!
I feel like we need to form a League of Relatively Normal People, and our agenda should be things like:
--Canada's cool, leave them be
--Lot of smart people at universities, that's a plus
--We're scared of getting cancer, so let's research it
--Fewer floods and wildfires would be nice

19-20 months from now, Trump will have pushed the economy off a cliff and left the civil service a smouldering husk. If you're a Democratic elected and you think a government shutdown from a CR fight is gonna be the thing voters remember, you need your fucking head examined.

I love to call my Senators' offices three times per week and try to cajole them into doing the most elementary political messaging and strategy. This is what it means to be an engaged citizen: leaving a strenuously polite voicemail for a 74yo on a more regular cadence than I talk to my parents.

If your spineless weasel is on this list call them! Voting against the CR is a terrible horrible very bad thing. Shutting down the government is just as not good.
But, now in this time and with this government, voting for the CR is so very much worse.
They MUST vote NO!
