December 25th. The day the Fellowship departs Rivendell to destroy the One Ring.
Whatever you celebrate, may you have the courage to take the first steps to defy and endure against the dark, and rekindle light into the world.

It’s a public service, right there in the name. It exists as a public good for all the people in this country. It’s not supposed to turn a profit, you dolts.
Go audit the Pentagon and see what kind of return on investment we’re getting there.

The USPS faces a tight squeeze. With fewer people using the mail, it’s lost more and more money: $9 billion in the 12 months ending in September alone.

“Clinton is in the Epstein files!”
Great. Next time I come across a Clinton rally, someone wearing a Clinton hat, or flying a Clinton flag on their truck, I’ll be sure to let them know.
The rest of us want them ALL held accountable because we aren’t in a cult. Hope that helps.

Well, considering the country didn't want a White woman (16).
Didn't want a Black woman (24).

Watching a report on possible Democratic candidates for 2028. I hope Kamala Harris & AOC will step back for this one because we can’t risk this next election on a woman or anyone of color. I’m sorry to say that but the country won’t vote for a woman yet & this next election if far too important.

Bari Weiss is the logical endpoint of corporate media. This is what happens when people who hate journalism are in charge of it. The only way journalism works is when it’s independent from the power it’s supposed to hold to account, which means ownership can’t have anything to do with those in power

Remember those white women who drove a van full of foster black kids off a cliff?

This is how it starts.
In Georgia, a mom facing eviction reached out to DFCS for help. They offered her nothing. Soon the agency took her kids away because of "inadequate housing."
The state then paid *$6,200 a month* to house her kids in foster care.
One of the most important and infuriating stories I read this year:

You did not "build an identity around your pain." You were tricked into believing your pain IS your identity. Recovery is about waking up & realizing how badly you've been conned by trauma & a culture that blames victims.

Don't let someone give you sh*t about "avoiding" "discomfort." No trauma survivor I know "avoids" "discomfort"-- they're often absolute champions at tolerating pain.
Dissociation is NOT a conscious choice to "avoid." It's a reflex many survivors find annoying & inconvenient.

Unbelievable. This would be a terrible blow to American science, writ large. It would decimate not only climate research, but also the kind of weather, wildfire, and disaster research that has underpinned half a century of progress in prediction, early warning, and increased resilience.
Exclusive: The Trump administration is moving to dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Colorado, according to a senior White House official, taking aim at one of the world's leading climate research labs.

I think the diagnosis of the “male loneliness epidemic” as being largely about women no longer feeling that the *labor* of having a male partner is offset by any observable benefits is mostly accurate.

The administration is extorting universities for billions of dollars and attempting to destroy free speech, academic freedom, and independent thought but the Atlantic talked to a few professors at elite universities who think the problem is that some students need a little extra time on exams
