“This is the tip of the iceberg,” said Thibaudeau. “There are so many women facing intimate partner violence in our society and femicide is the ultimate price to pay.”

I would love to make America great, seems like a cool idea, I recommend a second Reconstruction mixed with a second round of Nuremberg trials with a dash of a second Klan Act followed by the dismantling of a bunch of private equity and tech companies.

Donald Trump is not legally President. He *is* an insurrectionist, and is fully banned from ANY office under the United States. Swearing in a banned person to an office does NOT fill that office. So, keep hating him. He isn't POTUS, and we owe him nothing.

NYT: during 1st term scholars pointed out that Trump isn't a fascist, because he doesn't have a paramilitary political force beating up, arresting and killing citizens on the streets. Others noted that his government also lacks the drive for imperial expansion. Well, not anymore.

it’s been several days and i am unable to stop coming up with random in-universe star wars scholarship (this is getting in the way of my real life responsibilities, which may or may not include rewatching the Solo movie for the 96th time for research)

The most artistically daring moment in Star Wars and perhaps all of American Sci Fi is still the ten minutes of Star Wars Holiday Special where we follow Chewbacca's family and their daily routine with no subtitles.

i feel like there are a lot of similarities to Brownshirts though i guess they are more “official” than the SA was
Don't bother arguing about whether ICE is a police force or a military force. It's neither. It behaves as a disorganized, violent mob, cursing, shouting contradictory orders, and attacking unarmed citizens on a whim. It is deployed to create fear and chaos, not to enforce laws or establish order.

The nation only survives if there js a subsequent election that leads to a new administration that then throws so many people in jail from this administration and builds new guard rails so aggressive they resemble a labyrinth protecting the notion of a representative democracy without a king.

Now that I'm back in my right mind (whatever that is)... look wow our episode on Greater Good is up!! Lou brings a historically grounded analysis of girlbosses and military glass ceilings and Lenny remembers that they do, in fact, study religion.

You shake yourself awake in the cold North Atlantic water. You are not online. It is July of 1858. You are a baleen whale, and you have changed your mind. The future most not come to pass. The telegraph cable must break.

I am currently watching the Star Wars holiday special in full for the first time and all I can think is that the cocaine in the 70’s was amazing.

“Anakin Skywalker and Darth Vader were not the same person…..the appeal of a ridiculous assumption like ‘one family was responsible for decades worth of civil wars’ stems from the need to impose simplicity on complex historical events….”
