James Baldwin, Daedalus 89(2) 1960: "We are in the middle of an immense metamorphosis here, a metamorphosis which will, it is devoutly to be hoped, rob us of our myths and give us our history." Is this not the text @esglaude.bsky.social teaches so often on TV?

James Baldwin: "We are very cruelly trapped between what we would like to be, and what we actually are. And we cannot possibly become what we would like to be until we are willing to ask ourselves just why the lives we lead on this continent are so empty, so tame and so ugly."

It’s a strange situation when we’ve established the POTUS is a criminal, we’re just trying to find a crime his party wouldn’t be okay with.

It's one thing I truly loathe about these assholes (who dominate our politics & culture now). They can't tolerate something good & pure *existing*. Even if it's no bother to them, no bother to anyone, they can't tolerate it. Nothing can live outside their control, their narrow boxes, their fear.

How are they not describing it as a hostage negotiation with a psychopath who is happy to kill the hostages?

Maybe I should emigrate to Australia and claim refugee status since my government is trying to kill me.

The thing mainstream conservatism is trying to conserve is unassailable cultural, economic, and political supremacy for white landowning christian men. Its inevitable conclusions are subjugation, oppression, corruption, slavery, and genocide.

Stripping the power and therefore wealth of American oligarchs is a necessary step to restoring US democracy and building a better society.

States need to sue Trump into the ground over this. Hopefully that will stick a shiv into the bogus "immunity for official duties" non-doctrine b/c there's no way this can be passed off as official duties.

Ofc SCOTUS will try to make it just that, so we will need to go nuclear on their asses. 😡

Trump says the SNAP money that he’s been ordered by a court to release won’t be released until the government shutdown ends.

JB #Pritzker just went nuclear on #Trump:

“Donald Trump & his bootlickers have torn down the Department of Education from the inside. Books are being banned. History is being erased. And Donald Trump and his cronies can f*** all the way off.”

You can curse daylight saving time, daylight saving, daylight savings, daylight savings time, and/or daylight time.

i think if you ride public transit enough you learn that most weird behavior is not dangerous, and conversely i think driving a car teaches you that everyone is trying to kill you at all times

The Republican 2/3rds of the Supreme Court are our enemy.
6️⃣For 20 years, legal elites have met every Roberts Court usurpation of our freedoms with a jurisprudential explanation instead of a call to arms.

We rally to stop would-be kings but bow to the kingmakers.

A few years ago, I spent my birthday at Versailles. My first thought when I arrived there and saw it was "No wonder they had a revolution".

This whole thread is well worth a read.
Withholding money for food and finding money for every unnecessary thing is what sparked the French Revolution. Literally.

FUCK YEAH
The way we avoid having to do all of this again in 8 or 12 or 16 or 24 years is by imprinting a generational memory of, "oh, the last time they did that, all of the top guys - I mean, the ones who survived - went to prison for the rest of their lives, and had their property seized."

No one makes it entirely on their own. If you benefit from a functioning society, you owe something back.
