Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.
Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

I think that’s because the Times sees its role in society as smugly lecturing liberals about why the right is correct and/or going to win, in the eternal liberal game of trying to feel smarter and more in touch with “real people” than the next liberal, of which it is the all-time world champion.

Two women trained as first responders were abducted by three ICE agents. One of the agents starts seizing. The other two don’t know what to do. The women jump into action and save the agent’s life, only to be re-handcuffed and processed.

Detained by ICE, two women became first responders during agent’s seizure
The women say they guided agents through the emergency, later raising concerns about medical protocols, weapons safety and accountability.

My 3 year old is reading Foucault and asked me, tears in his eyes, "why is power in society only reified through force and surveillance?"
I told him to read more Fanon

It’s not even so much about “sane” vs. “insane” anymore, as it so often was circa 2020. The fundamental split today is between the *decent* and the *indecent.* It is monstrous to desire, excuse, sanitize, whitewash avoidable killing even of one’s perceived foes.

I’ll take this a step further: I don’t trust people who don’t hate Trump and the current GOP.
it's good to base your politics on compassion for the oppressed but it's also ok to have a little hate in your heart, as a treat.

This Yglesias piece in the NYT is horrifically bad. Almost every "fact" it cites is provably false. At best it is cocktail party banter from a pundit who knows nothing of energy. At worst, it was cut/paste from oil industry talking points. So, a rebuttal: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/18/o...

there is a point here i want to amplify. the free speech defenders of the mainstream seem to have no awareness that actual free speech is often more fractious and destabilizing than civil and respectful. a society where speech is genuinely free isn’t the deferential space they want it to be.

Art history will no longer be a school subject in New Zealand
The axing of art history as a standalone subject in schools will have big impacts on students’ understanding of culture, society and the world, art history teachers say. Have your say in the comments.
