I do not celebrate any murder.
I do not celebrate the violent death of any human being, nor the loss of any chance for repentance & repair. None.
And those on the right must note that this is the "deal" for which Kirk himself actively advocated.
Pass better gun policy if you don't like murder!

I need the internet to know that as of today I have a new favourite children’s picture book. It is called This Is Not My Hat and it is unhinged and lovely.

Tonight as my baby gleefully wriggled out of my lap and bounced face-first in the direction of falling off the edge of the bed I said aloud “darling, how do I balance wanting to keep you safe with encouraging you to explore the world,” a unique thought never before experienced by any parent.

If I'm reading this right, "Statement from Justice Alito to follow" means that not only did SCOTUS issue this ruling at one in the morning, they refused to hold it until Alito had the chance to write his dissent.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court has blocked the Trump administration from deporting foreign nationals under the Alien Enemies Act. Thomas, Alito dissent.

I wonder what feeling Vance has when he types things like "I will say a prayer for victory" in a private group chat.
Is he truly praying as he types? Does he plan to later? Is it a rote performance by now? Is he eyerolling?
I have curiosity about the, uh, masking / earnestness / cynicism levels.

Jeffrey Goldberg thinking he was being pranked and then realizing he was actually just in the war plans group chat is such a good microcosm of how it feels to be alive right now, everything seems fake until you realize it’s actually real and incredibly stupid

Worth noting that when the war started Zelensky’s English was very shaky and he’s clearly spent a ton of time improving it for exactly this purpose.
