So many things that should be delightful end up exhausting, simply because they didn't know when to stop. 

For example Thomas Chatterton Williams would have delighted everyone, however unwittingly, if he had stopped writing before he ever started. We should take a moment to appreciate all the terrible but delightfully unknown writers who spared us their vapid opinions by instead becoming used car dealers or dying young. No such luck vis-Γ -vis I. Chatty, who is required to exist in public discourse because someone had to crack open the "liberal defender of fascism" niche so that the New York Times could live in it like a malignant hermit crab. The fact that Tom
"Big Chats" Willie is the best they could find to do it says all you need to know about the value of the project.

this is an utterly delightful paragraph from @rusty.todayintabs.com whose artistry I would applaud even if I didn’t agree with assessment of Mr. T Dot Chats, which I do, fully and completely www.todayintabs.com/p/the-chatte...

When it happens, you're probably not even going to learn about it directly before you feel it in the air. You'll just hear car horns and cheering in the streets. You'll feel confused, annoyed. You'll check your phone. Huh, 41 new texts.

Lauren Roberts is raising money for the immediate needs of another survivor. Please donate if you can - this is one way we can support survivors, when our party and systems will not.

Fell in love with The Halls of Arden Vul megadungeon setting thanks to a podcast (3d6 Down the Line) and then fell back out at the price. $300 for all 1100 pages in print.

I will probably still do it, but not an impulse buy.

every Democrat accusing Mamdani of harboring or abbetting antisemitism in this country because of his opposition to Israel is a quisling who must at the least face a primary or be defeated in their next bid for higher office

This is the quote that I can't shake. State, USAID, the department of education, NSF, etc. Institution after institution being gutted being met by a broad based shrug by the public. Meanwhile, Ukrainians are in the streets protesting a corruption law in the middle of the fight of their lives...

Incorporating a preemptive Safety Stand-Down with a 45-minute powerpoint presentation on the Spanish Civil War that just repeatedly says "see how these guys all started fighting each other as well as the Fascists and then the Fascists killed them all for 40 years?" to inoculate against factionalism

Why did you run for office if you don't want to use power?
Start trying to win rather than impress imaginary teachers.
