1. Twenty-some years ago, as the embers of the intelligent design movement were dying out, a loose band of thinkers known as the New Atheists made a name for themselves by confusing materialist methodology with materialist metaphysics and going on the offensive against all of organized religion.

Tweet by Matthew (Crowsfault) on March 10, 2022 saying: People speak of hope as if it is this delicate, ephemeral thing made of whispers and spider's webs. It's not. Hope has dirt on her face, blood on her knuckles, the grit of the cobblestones in her hair, and just spat out a tooth as she rises for another go.

This seems fitting for the events we're going through today.

Please don't leave disabled people behind in your revolution. Please do not see us as sacrifices for the greater good, or dead weight. Please see our lives as worth saving, too.

Frame from a gunshow comic with the dog, putting out the fires in the room that he is normally sitting in saying โ€œitโ€™s not fine and you have a responsibility to act.โ€

No one is coming to save us but one another.

Screenshot of Rishi, M.A., et al. (2024). "Permanent standard time is the optimal choice for health and safety: an American Academy of Sleep Medicine position statement." Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine 20(1).

It's time for my semiannual soapbox:

"It is the position of the AASM [American Academy of Sleep Medicine] that the United States should eliminate seasonal time changes in favor of permanent standard time, which aligns best with human circadian biology."

People like to talk about being radicalized politically but honestly not wanting people to die of poverty and be able to get insulin and not bombing innocent children seems like pretty normal boring morality, all those other fucking weirdos are the radical ones

Forgiveness and healing are not the same thing.

Sometimes theyโ€™re related.

Sometimes, not.
