We've reached the chapter in Gibbon where the mad emperor is appointing magicians, acrobats, and paid agents of the Persians to the highest offices of state.

Once the cyberbarons fully occupy and effectively seize control of the Treasury and other key government agencies, it won’t be long before they relegate Trump to a rubber-walled romper room, wheeling him out for occasional bursts of what passes for charisma to humor him with the illusion of power.

Find your cause, step up and address it, and don’t take no for an answer.
The world is darker than it’s been in my lifetime. We’ve lost sight of our collective capacity, fallen into traps of distrust, discarded compassion. It’s no wonder courage has taken a back seat to fear.

I had the sweetest dream last night. I was driving on the LIE and there was Donald Trump in a red jumpsuit, picking up trash beside the highway.

And—in particular—don’t be silent for the sake of being polite. We’re not taking about politics in the ordinary sense anymore. This is about decency and morality and whether or not this country chooses to become a thoroughly criminalized state instead of an imperfect representative democracy.
You can't shame MAGA. It's impossible to shame shameless people. I go on and debate them, trust me. They will make excuses for and glorify Musk's Nazi salute and Trump pardoning violent insurrectionists. But remember there's a world out there - and the majority opposes it. Be loud. Don't be silent.

Word of the Day is ‘uhtcearu’ [ucht-kay-aru, with the 'ch' as in the Scottish ‘loch']:

Old English for ‘the sorrow before dawn', when you lie awake in the darkness and worries crowd your mind.
