i just read something about grief from C.S. Lewis and his book, “A Grief Observed”

basically, when someone you love dies, it isn’t just them that you miss, but the parts of yourself that person brought out of you that can never be brought out again.

i feel that with my dad.

One big problem is that to truly understand what the internet is doing to people, you have to be on it too much to play any useful role in society

Not to interrupt production at the takes factory but they should probably identify and catch the actual killer before we decide what it all means.

“awful people don’t deserve to be killed, but they don’t deserve to be praised, either” is apparently a thought too complex for the pundit mind

The Toronto Blue Jays held a moment of silence prior to the start of tonight’s baseball game vs the Minnesota Twins. Canada is a good friend. 🇨🇦

Remember when getting caught doing something immoral or illegal would end a politician’s career?

That was awesome.

I think what’s so hard about trying to make people understand this political moment is that it fundamentally doesn’t make any sense unless you’re extremely online and have been for the better part of a decade

The country we live in is about to get handed over to people rich beyond the definition of it, and what we’ve known is to be sold for scrap, spare parts. If the American dream wasn’t dead before?

This is the America most *didn’t* want and now we all gotta willingly eat it, whatever the absolute fuck happens. Sorry for this, future generations. Wild times.

Imagine this administration launching a nuke. There’s no way we are ready for any kind of conflict like the one that feels impending, some incredibly dark times we’re living in people. Staying vigilant will be key in the coming months and years.
