"Let's not take the soul-sucking path of sacrificing the most persecuted for that which we deem to be most popular. I know that there are transgender children right now looking out at this world and wondering if anyone is going to stand up for them and for their simple right to exist. Well, I am."

Severance S2 was a miss for me. I didn't like that it leaned into the thriller / mystery aspects of the show when the chemistry among the four innies was what made the show special, IMO

if I’m making bad decisions then why do they feel so good

Just watched Exiled (2006) after @willmenaker.bsky.social mentioned it. Solid gold. Really wish they still made movies like this

He also thinks vampires are real, the rabbit hole never ends with that one

truly wild that plenty of centre-left parties would be too cowardly to use this slogan which should be entirely uncontroversial for any nominally left party (looking at you, Labour)

We, the Democrats, will build the camps twice as fast as Trump and the Republicans. And we will have an Uncle Sam cosplayer shake the hand of every migrant and trans person as they walk through the gates, to thank them for their services which are no longer needed

Chapo is the most powerful podcast in the world, according to some

The Democrats really are going to run on "we can do fascism more efficiently and competently than Trump can." Awesome

Perhaps then in the communist society, the primacy of obligations rather than rights will reign. Transgressors might therefore be punished by having those mutual obligations suspended. This line of thinking is fraught, of course, for multiple reasons.

The flâneur and the busker are not interpellated by the police officer's "Hey, you!" in the same way. One will continue to promenade while the other winces.
