Look, they do not have the capacity or competence to do this at the scale they want you to fear they do, and your fear is precisely their greatest force multiplier. Everybody who is cowed into silence by their threats allows them a smaller pool to focus on.

The 20th century was built largely out of absurd moments and events. In time we had to invent an adjective, European and literary, that might encapsulate the feeling of impending menace and distorted reality and the sense of a vast alienating force that presses the edges of individual choice.

These things are Kafkaesque.

In America it is the individual himself, floating on random streams of disaffection, who tends to set the terms of the absurd.

A man walks into a diner and shoots 11 strangers. What city was that, and who remembers the shooter’s name?

A couple of teenagers wander through their school building shooting teachers and students. How many times did this happen, and where exactly, and who were the kids with the guns?

Oswald changed history not only through his involvement in the death of the president, but also in prefiguring such moments of the American absurd. He was not media-poisoned, as many of the others have been, and his crime was not steeped in the supermarket cult of modern folklore and dread. But think of the outrages and atrocities that flowed from the psychic disorientation of the 1960s β€” the assassinations, the cult murders, the mass suicides. It was surely the assassination of President Kennedy that began to give us a sense of something coming undone. This was vintage American violence, lonely and rootless, but it shaded into something older and previously distant, a condition of estrangement and helplessness, an undependable reality. We felt the shock of unmeaning.

We continue to, as DeLillo described once about Oswald, feel "the shock of unmeaning"

Today is a FINE FUCKING DAY to stop posting screenshots from Twitter, a platform your dumb ass should have abandoned a long time ago.

Stop wading in sewage and bringing us the ripest turds.

rightwing media ecosystem operates by stoking hatred and anger and divisions every single day, they want people to constantly be afraid and want people to hate eachother, everything we are seeing is a result of the destablization the right has profited off of

Doesn’t matter how many great horror movies get made, doesn’t matter how many times they’ve saved the theatrical movie business since Covid…the genre still can’t get any respect. The β€œit’s not a horror movie” crowd is always there. This includes filmmakers who can’t admit they made a horror movie.

the biggest force for rural resentment of cities in the last three decades is that cities got way better and the countryside got way worse.

Yet another of her accounts deleted, Ugh

Yasmein is someone I've spoken about before, obviously it's EXTREMELY dangerous to go get aid and the prices are extortion.... but it's food.
Keep being political about this, and maybe buy her family dinner!!

Now I'm just a simple country lawyer but I think rising temperatures, more powerful hurricanes, more wildfires, more infectious diseases and droughts are bad for public health

trump should’ve been in handcuffs in jan 2021 and there is no way to quantify just how much human suffering will result from the disastrous decision to slow walk his prosecution or even avoid it altogether

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

I’ve spent a lot of time in Mexico over the last few years and it is one of the most beautiful and culturally + historically fascinating countries on earth: it’s an absolute travesty how many Americans think it’s just Cancun and cartels

More of the usual bullshit gaslighting from the MAGA ambassador.
Canada issued a travel warning about having phones seized by US customs because it is a real threat.
He claims Americans face threats in Canada as well.
The difference is we have the rule of law. They have ICE gangs kidnapping people.
