For no reason, I am thinking of my grandmother's dad, who died during a shift at the factory 100 years ago.

He was emaciated and so sick he couldn't speak, but he still had to go to work. They found him in the bathroom, "lying in an immense pool of blood which was welling from his mouth and nose."

You need to be building out capacity. You need to be buying manufacturing equipment (incl desktop manufacturing such as 3d printers and cnc) and stockpiling raw material. You need to be capacitymaxxing and sufficiency-pilled.

The shepherds' swains shall dance and sing
For thy delight each May-morning:
If these delights thy mind may move,
Then live with me, and be my lover.

Senate Democratic leadership essentially played dead today and greenlit the Trump-Musk-Vance coup. What is the point of the Democratic Party if it doesn't actually act like an opposition party? Hello?

Now House Republicans have voted to wipe out the guardrails that Congress wrote for how to spend taxpayer money. Trump and Musk could hold everyone under their magic spell—spend or shut off taxpayer money however they want.

Absolutely not. I’m fighting back.

I: I'm thinking of trying out <church> but they're Rite II so I know they say Spirit instead of Ghost, unlike the proper way since at least 1611 to address this Person of Trinity
My patient boyfriend: ...
I: I'm joking
He: I know you aren't really is the problem here.

somewhat baffled that copilot (reskinned chatgpt) could generate the part below with a green background. Pretty good, honestly. Now if only I knew how much water this consumed and I might use features like it more often....

"Thou'rt none of my brother, Lazarus,
That lies begging at my door;
Nor meat nor drink will I give to thee,
Nor bestow upon the poor."

[...]

Then Dives looked with burning eyes,
And saw poor Lazarus blest;
"One drop of water, Lazarus,
To quench my flaming thirst!"

"Why be so calm?

The downside of the wonderful trip I took to NY with my boyfriend to see *Illinoise* is that I sob whenever I hear anything from that album now
