I never pass by a Make-A-Wish child without rubbing their head and making a wish, and yet still none of them have come true.

Going back and showing Nick Drake inflation porn and seeing if it affects his songwriting, only to catch a glimpse of myself already doing that. I fall to my knees as I realize we've always lived in the world where he saw it.

Yesterday my partner and I counted all the ads along Chicago's Brown Line for "Friend," a company selling an AI chatbot pendant, and tallied how many of those ads were defaced.
Still working on a longer piece on this, but here's the quick and dirty: we counted 104 "Friend" ads total, 42 defaced.

The lesson that Schumer learned from the March debacle:
- do a better job timing the cave to Trump so it happens on Sunday night, not during the day when offices can be lobbied
- do a better job picking senators who are retiring or not up in '26 to vote aye
- make sure you don't have to vote aye
- do a better job timing the cave to Trump so it happens on Sunday night, not during the day when offices can be lobbied
- do a better job picking senators who are retiring or not up in '26 to vote aye

We spent months working to rebuild the Democratic brand in the eyes of young voters who wanted leaders who'd fight for them.
Senate Democrats just lit all that work on fire.

They caved in March so they could get a better deal now. They’re caving now so they can get a better deal in some indeterminate future. The better deal is always just beyond their reach, but continuing to cave will get them there. And if you don’t agree with that, you don’t understand Politics,

It's tough, Mamdani seems like a great guy and inspiring candidate but when you look at the sterling coalition standing against him (Cuomo, Musk, Trump, The NY Post, Dave Portnoy, Bill Ackman, Chuck and Amy Schumer, the little guy from Shark Tank) it's hard to know for certain.

The free speech activist who built a list of professors he worked to get fired for their speech must be celebrated for his support of free speech, and anyone who quotes his speech accurately in context will be fired and/or face state punishment by the champions of free speech, do I have that right?

No, no. I'm not saying that about Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk said that about George Floyd.
Just in case anyone's interested in what he thought was fair to say about someone who was killed on camera.

I can think of no more just outcome than for Charlie Kirk to be swiftly forgotten by his so-called friends because the person who killed him didn't make him as useful a tool in death as he was in life.

I cited actual Kirk quotes where he calls Black women less intelligent, demonizes me for being Muslim, & dehumanizes LGBTQ people—& his supporters are upset at me for “speaking evil of the dead.”
If quoting him is “speaking evil” maybe ask yourself why you followed someone who believed evil things.

This is simply untenable. There is no way forward with media and political classes captured by the right. Every time someone commits a crime you have to pray it's not an undesirable or it's purge time, then when it turns out to be themselves again they just shrug and wait for the next one.

in the US conservative mindset cishet conservative white men are top of the hierarchy and thus it is bad to shoot them, but also they are allowed to shoot people, so if one kills another it's just a wash. cancels out. thoughts and prayers, nothing to see here
