WE CAN'T VOTE ANY HARDER

Pals, I'm sorry. I was feeling better and stopped reading my dumb little books at night instead of getting on the internet and then stuff got stupider and I'll go read now.

I cannot emphasize enough that if you feel sad, donating money makes you feel better. Local food bank, diaper bank, mutual aid, a favorite charity, cancer research, or a local news site like @thecity.nyc; there are so many options. Money is the most efficient donation. Or sign up to volunteer.

Text around it says “get killed eight times/ come back nine”. The red border around the image has two cars, arrows, knives, and poison bottles, numbered to match its deaths.

Kicking in the doors of daycares is a great way to turn wine moms into molotov cocktail moms.

You want the Live Laugh Love women in your foxhole. You want them on that line. You do not want to fight them. You will lose.

I haven't lived there in 15 years, but this is my *particular* Chicago, my CVS, my Damen Ave. I hate this all so much but I love Chicago even more.

Lists of spirit names. The first starts "These be the Spirits in common between Asmodee and Magot" and lists a bunch of names like Sartabakim and Magiros. The next list, of spirits of Astarot, contains Gromenis, Bafamal, Schelagon... and Alan.

I was just leafing through 1725 occult tome The Secret Magic of Abramelin the Mage in search of scary invocations for the BOOK, and I came across this list of subordinate spirits to the princes of Hell.

just wanted to re-post this messaging that helped win an election

lookit that cute voting sticker. That's a heck of a voting sticker

I've stopped driving and started getting more high, and I vote

One kind of funnier aspect of watching authoritarianism rise amid my own petty grievances is the satisfaction of watching pundit bros struggle not to admit that the hysterical resistance wine moms were right.

The cover was definitely a pull!

I read some more stuff. Remember You Will Die is a novel in obituaries, which was a neat conceit. Enjoyed them all, would recommend to varying degrees.

A photo of a poem titled "You Are Here" by Mira Jacob. The text of the poem follows: "Leaving this here at you have it to come back to today. This country has always been brutal, and there has always been an us who have been fighting it. The beauty that comes out of that fight, the way our love for each other changes the world around us, is real and glorious and unrelenting. It cannot be caged, tamed, erased, or lost. You are part of that tradition. I know you are starting to know this, but you really know it now. Art is making something no one asked for - not because they didn't need it, but because they didn't know they needed it until you made it, until it helped them breathe and dream and find a way forward. It's part of a map that shows us how we get out of this place. Keep going. Do your part. Love you - Mom."

Alexander Furnas <zfurnas@gmail.com> 3:11 PM (4 minutes ago) to john.faulk, thomas.ryan, sumner.waring, bcc: Amy, bcc: George Dear Mr. Faulk, Mr. Ryan, and Mr. Waring, My mother is buried in Rosehill Cemetery, a Dignity property in Chicago, which your company manages. My father also holds a reserved plot there. I was deeply disturbed to learn that today, armed and masked federal agents were using the cemetery grounds as a staging area for immigration enforcement operations in the surrounding community. I want to be clear: I do not expect SCI or Dignity to take political positions. What I do expect is that you uphold the dignity, sanctity, and safety of the spaces entrusted to your care. Cemeteries are sacred ground—places of mourning, reflection, and remembrance. Allowing armed, unidentified agents in unmarked vehicles to occupy that space desecrates it. It frightens visitors, community members, and employees alike, and it betrays the trust of the families who have chosen Rosehill as their loved ones’ final resting place. As a private entity, SCI and Dignity have the legal right to prohibit ICE, CBP, and other federal enforcement personnel from using your property for such operations without a judicial warrant. I urge you to exercise that right and to adopt clear policies ensuring that no government agency may use any cemetery grounds under your management for enforcement or staging purposes. Doing so is not a political act—it is a moral and professional obligation to the deceased, their families, and your own staff. Many of those interred at Rosehill, and the families who visit them, are immigrants themselves. To allow their resting place to be used in acts that terrorize the living descendants of immigrant communities is a profound moral failure. I ask that you take immediate steps to ensure that this never happens again and communicate publicly your commitment to protecting the sanctity of these grounds. I am requesting a written response outlining yo…

my letter to the CEO, President, and COO of Services Corporation International, the owner of Dignity Memorial, which manages the cemetery in which my mom is buried that was being used as an ICE staging ground this afternoon.
