The em-dash is being maligned. Me, joining the em-dash discourse—despite knowing it's exactly the kind of February nonsense the author is mocking—because this parenthetical is chef's kiss perfection.

This keeps me awake at night.
Global average temperatures are spiking, rising faster than climate models seem able to explain, and in a sane world, every country would be united in a full-scale effort to figure this out & respond. Instead the US is dismantling its scientific infrastructure.

Absolutely none of what he claims here is true. There is a lunatic here but it is not the people advocating for due process.

In stories, evil stalks in black capes & unmistakable form. Real malevolence arrives in daylight, dressed in mediocrity-armed with shallow & stupid promises. The truly dangerous appear as figures of mockery-too preposterous to take seriously. They win through quiet capitulations, not dramatic clash.

The idea that those on the left will ever agree enough to be an “echo chamber” is rather funny to me.
We couldn’t even agree whether to refer to Kamala Harris by her first or last name.
