A badge for my American expat friends:

put it this way: I have a close friend who hiked the Raumati Escarpment trail with me who said she prepared for β€œfour hours of Radio Grant” and also once baked me a birthday cake in the shape of Oscar the Grouch.

I think people would be very sympathetic to a β€œPlease don’t ask me about my country” badge.

we need a pomodoro approach where we only have an existential crisis for 25 minutes at a stretch

gotta budget mental bandwidth to worry about the scheduled crises before worrying about the unscheduled ones

lol that’s something they don’t have to worry about until November… onwards…

my personal prediction is things get very ugly by the end of the week due to the Republican National Convention, and anyone who has the luxury of ignoring international events should absolutely do that.

I do think things eventually get better… just not in my lifetime.

definitely a good evening to do something cosy before waking up to whatever insane fuckery tomorrow brings

Not your fault, my bad flatmate experiences are one reason I live in Ōtaki.

Do yourself a favor and get familiar with the conceit of accelerationism.

also, do we have badness now or do we manage to postpone it for a few cycles before it muscles in and refuses to leave for the rest of the century

I think at this stage of US history the only choice is DEGREES of badness

I have a lovely and comprehensive collection of the Uncle books by JP Martin with a page devoted almost apologetically to the few typos they had to correct in a 60 year-old series for kids 🐘

the vibes are remarkably tasteful, all things considered

like somebody dropped a giant tray of glasses in a restaurant but we’re still eating

we can try to direct the missile away from the village or we can proactively headbutt it
