Graduate seminar did a deep dive on Thomas Paine’s Common Sense yesterday. At the line, “in America the law is king,” they (14 students from 6 countries) burst out laughing. I've been doing this for 35 years and this is the first time that was a laugh line.

40% of Republicans think the COVID vaccine killed more people than the COVID virus. One in four believe that QAnon is real.
No matter how far they radicalize, we are told over and over again that the people being rude to them are the problem.

They’re going to war with the United States. I seem to recall some grievances about this in some old document.

Sorry to be a wet blanket, but while this administration is both stupid and evil, nuclear reactors for the Moon have been in planning and testing for ages and are basically necessary if we want a science base on the moon. There's a bit more on this in A City on Mars.
EXCLUSIVE: Sean Duffy will announce expedited plans to build a nuclear reactor on the moon, his first major action as interim NASA administrator.

It’s a golden age for Cassandras.
My prediction is that in that scenario, he blames the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which puts out employment data. Calls them corrupt, run by Democrats, out to get him. Fires people there, insists their numbers cannot be trusted, White House puts out its own fictitious data to make Trump look good

Bluesky you deserve some fireflies in a cornfield. Not pictured-the young hawk chased away by robins, the enormous kale after the rain, the smell of the tomato plant leaves.

'Dandelions,' was painted by the Danish artist Bertha Wegmann around 1910. It wasn't an arbitrary choice of a plant to paint: the dandelion was used to promote the women’s liberation movement in Scandinavia because of its capacity for uncontrolled, strong-willed growth.
