Trump says he wants to take over Gaza. Yes, that is scary & bad. Don’t let it distract you from what Musk is doing, the fact that the department of government efficiency is NOT an official agency, we are deporting people to Guantánamo, & that Rubio has arranged to deport detainees to El Salvador

I feel like the tariffs are a distraction from what Elon Musk is doing.

My instinct is to make the case that USAID is extremely good, actually. But I feel like it’s more important to say, “What is happening is antagonistic to the foundational document of the nation.”

If it were legal to fire you, they wouldn't put so much effort into getting you to resign voluntarily.

I keep seeing memes like “my need to be informed is fighting with my need to stay sane”. That is what they want. They want you overwhelmed and scared so that you do nothing.

I recently finished listening to “Why Evil Exists” from the Great Courses collection. One of the big takeaways I have is that totalitarianism can’t withstand art and the truth. I pair this with another takeaway I have from “Strongmen” by Ruth Ben-Ghit, which is that would be dictators can’t stand

Today feels icky. Like having to play nice with a person who creeps you out. The last few months feel like they have been orchestrated to overwhelm us so we can’t act. So, pick one thing you care about and fight for it. Pay attention to what’s going on, but pick one thing and fight for it.

Dear American Fundamentalists,

The reason you are able to draw so many parallels between the modern day and Revelation is not because Jesus is about to suck you up into heaven.

It’s because it’s about the fall of an empire.

And guess who you are in this story?

Now if you’re looking to feel rage - I get it. But there are actual achievable anti-democratic things happening across this country.

And they have a much greater realism than Trump’s pointless, sensationalist, clickbait, distraction clown show.

I think it’s time to start shifting from outrage and grief over the election towards action. We are all aware of the worst case scenarios and we need to start working to prevent them.

A really good book that has been helping me understand why people have been voting or aligning their politics against their own interests lately is “Dying of Whiteness” by Jonathan Metzl.
