me in the street’ is a sobering, and frankly, sickening reality.

swedish death cleaning was always hinged upon sudden, incalculable passing - aka ‘hit by a bus’ or ‘accidentally fell down a mine shaft’. edward gorey-esque. the fact that it now makes a more pertinent sense as ‘if the illegal jackbooted military thugs of the current illegitimate administration kill

The GOP has offered nothing this century except for catastrophic wars. No healthcare plan; no re-industrialization. Now they're losing their only issue, immigration, as people see the violence and havoc that comes with mass deportations.

Speaking of "alone in a cabin" horror, I know a translator who went to a cabin for a few days to work on a translation in the South of Iceland. She was completely alone and there were no houses close and then suddenly one day something RAMS into the front door with tremendous force. 🧵

So, on day 4 of staying alone in a cabin when it's still really dark outside for a big chunk of the day I can tell you that if I were writing a horror movie about a writer alone in a cabin, it would be all about windows. Things appearing outside of them, things *inside* reflected in windows from ...

fave ghost horse is feste, from the children of green knowe, by lucy m. bolton

The horse is placed so centrally in folklore because our relationship to it has always been a defining cultural feature. Its ghosts are many. They pull spectral corpse carts, are steeds in phantom battles. A network of invisible clip-clopping down a thousand lanes. – Dr. M. Benn #FolkloreThursday

They don’t give a damn about the constitution or laws unless they can be used to support their actions. The people have to defend them. Just pointing at what it says doesn’t do it. As they accomplish more control the constitution will be torn up and the people won’t have any say.

a brown wire-haired pup stands on a wooden deck in a grassy yard. he looks at us with golden eyes and his right ear flipped inside out. he has a pipe-shaped stick in his mouth, giving him the appearance of a sophisticated and dapper gentleman. just give him a deerstalker cap and a cloak, and he'd give Sherlock Holmes a run for his money.

This pup found a stick shaped like an old timey pipe earlier today and has already solved three mysteries. 13/10

Really nuts how many men were like "Me Too went too far, and I need to email Jeffrey Epstein about it."

It's not surprising at all that a narrow minded man who hoards wealth for absolutely no reason is still miserable, despite being the richest man that ever lived.

I think you need a purpose to be happy. It can be whatever; writing, making movies, healing people, being a parent, rescuing animals ...

Good lord. “This list should give pause to anyone—no matter his or her political beliefs—who cares about the rule of law. ICE has likely violated more court orders in January 2026 than some federal agencies have violated in their entire existence.”

“The enemy always wins and we still need to fight him, that’s all I know.”

Lyrics from Good Boy by Paris Paloma: “And I would not expect you To witness what we know The songs sung in the dark times The fire in the snow We'll be piling up our pyre And you defend your lords And we will have our joy But it will never be yours”

🙌

For those needing an anthem that feels so fitting to scream together at ICE and basically all of MAGA

TO be honest given the visuals etc I really expected that Mans Best Friend was going to be a lot more like this one (lyrically speaking).

SO GOOD AND SO NEEDED. Ugh I love Paris’s music.

Having dinner at a Korean BBQ place, stuffing my face with steak, after having a shawarma bowl for breakfast and having chili and corn bread for lunch, and all I could think of was Paris Paloma, "heaven is a fed girl" and I was wonderfully, excellently well fed.

Heaven is a fed girl
Somebody’s got to,
somebody’s got to
And if you call me
good girl
One more time
then my fist
will meet your skull

Wow, Paris Paloma:
"I have never seen submission embodied half so well
As in, the feeble competition between men with souls to sell"
