There Is No Worst Opposition in the age of accommodation

We grow up with the unacceptable, and accommodation becomes a tool we use to make our lives easier. Accommodating the unacceptable is often easier than doing the right thing. Eventually, we use it to let ourselves off the hook, because that’s easier, too.

I finally put the tree up today and decorated it. A pre-lit artificial tree is great. No major incursions by the kittens, Pixel and Pistachio, beyond some minor batting of ornaments by Pistachio. Also no garlands or tinsel, or ornaments below knee height.

This is why I support DEI. The existing system operates to exclude women and minorities. Period.

Have you tried the Trader Joe's dark chocolate and crushed candy cane coated JoJo's? So good. Had them for the first time this season. Why had I never eaten them before?

Merrick Garland will go down in history as a man who did irreparable harm to our nation — and our democracy — through his inaction. His nomination as attorney general by President Biden turns out to have been a horrendous mistake.

Jordan Neely’s Father Sues Daniel Penny, Accusing Him of Assault Andre Zachery claims that Mr. Penny, who put Mr. Neely in a chokehold on a subway train last year, caused his son’s death through “negligence, carelessness and recklessness.”

The father of Jordan Neely, a 30-year-old homeless man who died on a New York City subway car last year after another passenger put him in a chokehold, filed a lawsuit on Wednesday against Daniel Penny, the man who choked his son.

An oval nebula with a complex structure against a black background. On the oval's exterior lie curtains of glowing red and orange fluffy material. Interior to this outer shell lie large-scale loops of mottled filaments of yellow-white and green, studded with clumps and knots. Translucent thin ribbons of smoky white lie within the remnant’s interior, brightest toward its centre.

Crab nebula.
A star that violently exploded ~970 years ago and left a neutron star in its center.

So to summarize, according to #maga, any Black, gay or trans person who achieves any position, no matter how degreed or credentialed they are is an unqualified #dei hire. And any white person, however unqualified or even sketchy is inherently qualified when they get a job. Do I have that right?

Time magazine cover overlaying the towers of the Kremlin rising over the White House.

Well played. And frighteningly accurate.

Post from Brian Allen:

BREAKING: Elon Musk accuses Alexander Vindman of working for Ukrainian oligarchs, labeling him a traitor and suggesting he could face the death penalty.  

This is where we are now—billionaires playing judge, jury, and executioner.

Alexander Vindman is a patriot. Elon Musk, himself an oligarch, is drunk on power and out of control.

A future conversation...

"Dad, how could people want things to be so bad?"

"Well son, we used the internet mostly for porn and screaming our feelings. When it came time to look up things like "fascism" and "tariffs" I'm afraid it was a bridge too far for most."
