crying and praying and crying and trying to get work done and texting my friends to see if they're okay (they're not) and crying and praying and planning trauma-informed workshops and praying and barely hold it together

the best antidote to blackpilling is remembering that every video you see of an ICE thug abusing their power was recorded by an American who volunteered to put themselves in harm's way for the sake of people they've likely never met and never will
/2 In light of that, I am in awe and deep respect of the people who are still showing up to monitor the ICE Gestapo, protect and defend their neighbors, do whatever they can to hold ICE to account and call out their lawlessness. What incredible bravery.

once again, getting off the internet for the foreseeable future because I can't handle news/videos about gun violence when I'm still processing the gun violence that occurred on my campus 3.5 weeks ago

We need more feminist sex negativity. The men have gotten too comfortable and they're getting creepy and gross.

Hated Kuang's Katabasis, love to be a hater of Katabasis and convince my friends - and by extension their book clubs - of the same.

Christian: "O Come All Ye Faithful" & "Hark the Herald Angels"

Secular: "Baby it's cold Outside" & Springsteen's "Santa Claus is Coming to Town"
What is your favorite "Christian" Christmas song and what is your favorite "Secular" Christmas song?

I will probably always adore "O Come All Ye Faithful" and "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" for Christian.

And "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" for secular.

Every use-case people think they "need" and LLM for is actually papering over a different issue. The teacher using ChatGPT to write narrative reports bc the demand is unreasonable & overwhelming *actually* needs more support and/or compensation or a reduction of demand. It's a LABOR issue.

Canceled our Netflix this year, so I went to see Frankenstein and Wake Up Dead Man in theaters this fall. I feel like I had the better experience watching them on the big screen, anyway.

I found Wake-Up Dead Man to be a very moving portrayal of faith, life in the church, and Christian ministry & I'm so glad I saw it in theaters

you're telling me a right-wing catholic convert is just a protestant in disguise? shocked
In newly leaked audio, Peter Thiel admits he urged JD Vance to ignore Pope Leo XIV on moral questions — including the ethical development of AI.

He goes even further, branding Leo “the woke American pope” and suggesting he’s a tool of the Antichrist.

No bailouts. The US should extort these companies when the crash happens so they get minimal compensation in return for nationalizing the entire panopticon industry and then destroying it once harvested for socially useful parts. It won’t happen but it should

Oyster stew and lutefisk on Christmas Eve growing up (though as far as I can tell that side of the family isn't actually Scandinavian, we just lived in Minnesota)
it fascinates me how most everyone in the U.S. does turkey for Thanksgiving, but we are all over the map as to what we eat for Christmas (as is proper for a hugely diverse nation).

I come from a Christmas prime rib roast family, myself.
I also use the bacon method. Although turkey is Christmas dinner where I come from.

the economic success of the U.S. is significantly built on the land grant universities and in particular their excellent agricultural science tradition.
Really important to stress that the Crown Jewels of the US higher education system were never the Ivies or elite SLACs (other countries have equivalents of these) but the well-funded, large, cheap, and excellently staffed public state university systems bringing high quality education to the masses.

You don’t have to like Nuzzi or approve of her conduct to understand that Lizza’s choice to publish the material that he is publishing is meant to sexually humiliate her in public in retaliation for disappointing him romantically. The term for that is revenge porn.

Reconciliation without reparation is one of supremacy's greatest sabotages of the act of repair. Whenever abuse is exposed, it offers free exoneration to the abuser at the expense of the abused, and calls it redemption. It's the traditional and popular response to abuse in our supremacist society.
Leaders of a Minnesota church community didn’t report a parishioner they knew had sexually abused girls for year.

They told his victims that once sins were “washed away in the blood of reconciliation,” they could never speak of them again.

This is about women and children as objects and tools and how abuse of them is not just tolerated and ignored but facilitated and celebrated.

Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.

So much work remains to be done.
