RIP, “I made a mistake, and I’m sorry.” These days, our narcissistic culture encourages every mistake to be falsely labeled as a “miscommunication” or “misunderstanding.” You know, to dilute one’s sense of accountability. It’s genuinely baffling.

I'm fucking losing my mind

Education Department has a backlog of 27,000 complaints about student loans The department disclosed the pileup of complaints — an increase of about 11,000 since March — in a recent letter to Sen. Elizabeth Warren.

Nearly two-thirds of the staff in the office were terminated this spring as part of widespread layoffs in the department

I happened to notice this post of mine from 2019. It’s stunning to realize how clear the agenda was then that he’s advancing with deeper hostility now.

The greenhouse gases we’re not accounting for Global warming is driving emissions, which are driving global warming, which is driving ...

Nations are largely ignoring a growing source of greenhouse gases in their climate commitments & risk assessments: emissions driven by climate change itself, like methane released from warming wetlands.

A new research collaboration aims to address that gap in our understanding:

Sometimes I wake up and just think very hard about the Komoda bakery on Maui and whether heaven could possibly be better than eating an entire box of Malasadas next to a waterfall.

Victims feeling exhausted and anxious about wrangling over Epstein files Women who say they were abused by Jeffrey Epstein are feeling skeptical and anxious after the Justice Department requested a court take the rare step of unsealing transcripts of secret testimony related to the sex-offending millionaire’s case.

We MUST focus on the victims. They require our support. #ReleaseEpsteinFiles #SupportRapeVictims

If the search function worked, it would grow.

If tons of people weren't blacklisted, with Palestinian advocates getting added to lists with names like "MAGA", it would grow, because folks would see each other and talk.

Now it's a combination of useless, deceitful, and dull. It doesn't have to be.

That said, Blue Sky has good people on it. It's weird that Twitter, still a hellhole, is a better place to get info about topics like the Gaza genocide or the broader background of Epstein. Search function works better there too. Lots of folks use social media for historical record-keeping.

The Unloved, Part 126: Zardoz | MZS | Roger Ebert The Unloved looks at the twisted brilliance of John Boorman's Zardoz.

Afterwards, I highly recommend reading and watching
