Everything is bad, but books are good. Get a book. Read the book. Cherish the book. Finish the book. Tell your friends about the book, and leave a review of the book. Hold the book close. Listen to what it tells you. Do as it commands. Place it on the dread altar and let it guide your every choice.

a cult can endure longer than the cult leader-- Christianity, for example. MAGA could "believe" in T***p indefinitely.

Fake Trump talks about trade policy. Real Trump talks about crowd sizes, hamburgers, and toilets that don’t flush.

I emerge from the time machine and see my teenaged self.
“Wow,” she says. “You’re me...but, like, old.”
“Yeah,” I tell her.
“Are you here to let me know it gets better?” she asks.
“What? God no—it gets SO much worse. I just came for my last few gulpfuls of clean air.”

It is jaw droppingly naïve at this point to honestly believe that the authoritarian regime currently using masked, plainclothes agents to kidnap people into concentration camps and deport them into slavery, and who is currently occupying the capital, will allow you to vote them out of power.

Anyone who was ever a self-aware teen girl is not remotely surprised by this.
Imagine trying to explain to someone in 1999 that one day Teen Vogue would be such a powerful progressive political media force that one of the world's richest men would seek to destroy it at enormous financial cost

Those who voted for this will never be allowed back into my life.
It was all an unforced error, perpetrated by racist goons.
My heart will remain broken for immigrants and pregnant people.
But history knows how this will play out.

This is Macarthur Park in Los Angeles. Republicans have turned the United States in a military police state. I could not even imagine what Fox and Republicans would be saying if Biden or Obama sent the US military to terrorize communities in Texas.

“Forget about intelligence” is a pretty good mantra for this administration
Host: Are you saying the US did not see intelligence that the Supreme Leader had ordered weaponization?
Rubio: That’s irrelevant
