Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."

Rob Reiner was a good guy. He made a lot of movies about good guys, in worlds where not everyone was good and you didn’t have to be good. He made movies about people trying. He was angry, as many hopeful people are. He knew the world could be better and he wanted it to be. His death is devastating.

The cultural impact of Rob Reiner cannot be understated. Legend isn't big enough a word. It goes to 11. You can't handle the truth. As you wish. I'll have what she's having. I'm your number one fan. You guys wanna see a dead body? The very idea of a bucket list. The West Wing.

I have 37,000 words for my Novermber writing month! It is a good start, probably about 40% of a novel. Now I am taking a breather, going back to draw a map, a timeline, and brainstorm about the major crisis of the story. Might need to go darker, invent another villain or a monster.

Lately the sad is huge and the anger is huge and both are constant, so please take care of yourself. Exercise. Read more. Work on your art. Talk to someone. Check on your friends. Remember your meds. Sit in the car and listen to the whole song. Celebrate the little wins.

Government abductions are unconstitutional.
Denying anyone the right to due process in America is unconstitutional.
If you’ve rationalized your silence or support for any of it because it’s happening to those you disagree with, give it a minute…
They’ll get to you soon enough.

That Kristi Noem video with the detainees is so upsetting and the fact any sizable fraction, let alone a majority, of our society would endorse it is evidence of a deep rot in our entire culture. Like until you answer what fuels the appetite for that kind of thing it will only get worse

According to a source I have at the CIA, Director Radcliffe lied today under oath. Signal is absolutely not loaded on agency computers. As a matter of fact it’s specifically prohibited as an outside app. Skype is allowed for conference calls but not Signal. He’s lying. @markwarner.bsky.social

Kash Patel wants to criminally charge groups who received EPA grants for climate change projects. You know, like those greedy bastards at Habitat for Humanity.
He thinks climate change isn't real, so he thinks these groups have committed fraud.
Which of course is fucking crazy.
