Everyone imitates Tolkien all the time except when it comes to the one way it would really matter: making the protagonist of your novel for children a short, fat, 50-year-old man who doesn't want to do anything.

Google is on record denying this story, but we all know the question is not if but when, and also, if anything is going to make me less inclined to use "AI" than I already am, it'll be the attempt to shove ads into it

Texas Democrats just did something historic under the leadership of new state party chair @kendallscudder.bsky.social. We have filed a candidate in EVERY 2026 race.

U.S. Senate: 1 of 1
U.S. House: 38 of 38
State Senate: 15 of 15
State House: 150 of 150
State Board of Education: 8 of 8
We Did It, Texas Dems, We Did It
Candidates in every legislative, statewide, and federal race. Now it’s time to build power where it counts.

My top paperbacks of the year advent for the 8th is @tkingfisher.com's A Sorceress Comes to Call.

What do you do if your mother is controlling, self-centred... & a sorceress?

Regency era with magic, murder, trauma, found family, GREAT characters all the way through. Loved it!

Turning the Civil War from "a tragedy, brother against brother" into "The Good Guys Destroyed The Bad Guys" is necessary. It is absolutely essential. The fourth grade class I attended in the 1990s sang Dixie every morning and we need to completely stomp that out.

We are dealing with such corruption in every aspect of our government, I don't know how we undo the damage.

Pathetically incompetent, hair-flipping attorney Alina Habba didn't resign.

She was kicked to the curb by a judge who was OVER her appalling lack of qualifications.
FOX: Interim U.S. Attorney for the state of New Jersey, Alina Habba has resigned. Attorney General Pam Bondi says she accepted the resignation after a court's decision disqualifying Habba from serving.

MAGA Traitors Need to "Go Back" and Leave America

If the GOP hates the Constitution, diversity, free and fair elections, voting rights, and the concept of separation of church and state, then maybe it hates America & should leave.

We have issued a Freedom of Information Act request for the video of the Venezuelan air strike. And if the government will not release it, we will have to access it from Pete Hegseth’s “Kinetic Warrior Lethality” Discord server.

Trump's presidency is slowly collapsing, but his appetite for trampling on press freedom remains intact. In this chaos, preserving that freedom is a vital luxury, even if many prefer to look away. The fight goes on, whether people like it or not.

we all got cowed into avoiding "virtue signaling" as if the public affirmation of socially agreed upon ethical principles was somehow cringey instead of a significant part of what a "society" even is. now all there's left is vice signaling, and it's reshaping society.
