Of all my little indulgences, what a pleasure it is to have a library of my own. Of the books that I want and want to reread. When half remember a quote, something Gandalf said to Thorin in the Unfinished Tales, what a joy to be able to get up and find it.

My friend surprised me with a copy of Hellwhalers from the @plusoneexp.bsky.social booth at GenCon which inspired me to pick up this copy of Moby-Dick at the thrift store today.

if this actually goes hot you'll have protesters in different cities intentionally playing rope-a-dope with the fed army
get rowdy in one city until they're at saturation then go back indoors and let somebody 3000 miles away carry the torch
they CANNOT enact martial law on the entire country

The United States is currently a country where you can be kidnapped by secret police and shipped off to a slave labour concentration camp without ever being charged with a crime or getting a chance to argue your case in front of a judge.
If you think it can't happen to you, why do you think that?

It sure looks like they’re going all in on the “the executive branch can ignore court orders if it thinks the court lacks jurisdiction” thing

I genuinely don't understand how anyone can look at the current moment and think "Abolish ICE" was anything but completely correct.
ICE cannot and should not exist. Period.

While I appreciate a lot of the insights within Climate Leviathan, I can't help but feel like the conclusion would have been more poignant if the authors knew that Climate X is just the means and ends of anarchism.

If the government makes an error, and a bad thing happens, and the government blames the bad thing on the corrupting influence of racial minorities, then you are being ruled by Nazis. Do I actually need to explain this?

Still can't get over this. PEPFAR is one of the best things the US has ever done, and we're doing this. Monstrous.
This will kill so many people living with HIV who depend on PEPFAR programs to stay on their HIV treatment driving further HIV drug resistance.

the weirdest part about trump being elected is that it always makes people finally say things that have always been true
trump is a fascist who is irreparably harming the world. its horrific. but the one positive i guess is that some people finally *get* it
if only that could happen without him

Does anybody have strong opinions on the reading order of Elric of Melnibone? I've read "Elric of Melniboné" first, and I'm told Fortress of the Pearl comes next chronologically, but I'm open to being swayed.
