I am not a military strategist, but I have a vague memory that not feeding the troops was one of those big fuck-ups that Sun Tzu talked about.

Don't talk to the NYT. They've betrayed families' trust before.

They will lie to you and use you and then turn around and tell you it was their job.

Don't trust a New York Times reporter. Don't talk to a New York Times reporter. They are the most ambitious journalists on the planet and will do anything to get the story their editor wants. The truth doesn't matter to them, only getting the story their editor wants so they can move up.

you shouldn’t talk to a journalist about how people in need of abortions access them when abortions are outlawed, and this is no different.

shutting the fuck up is free.

It’s funny how much of my energy goes towards wondering if I’m a β€œgood person” after I, like, send a snippy text message or don’t respond to an email and then there are entire orgs in our government dedicated to violating the Bill of Rights and they just shrug it off.

I'm happy that Mamdani won. But I won't let that get in the way of my celebrating Cuomo losing.

Elected Democrats spending more time today praising Dick Cheney than Zohran Mamdani is a great case study in abject fucking moral failure.

this is age-old discourse, i can't believe i'm seeing someone say this sincerely in 2025. this is a fake problem located entirely within a specific type of fandom. there is plenty of non-gay art about male friendship and being gay continues to be much more stigmatized than "men being friends"

I’m in my era of seeing people I went to high school with running for local office and I’m immediately like β€œOh I can’t vote for him I know what he was like as a child…” πŸ˜†

people have completely memory holed this which is a shame because I don't know that I've seen anything like it before or since. Natalie Maines, performing in London, said she was ashamed that George W. Bush was from Texas, and in response she and her bandmates had their lives destroyed

Fascists think they’re colossal doom wolves and are in fact pathetic, moist little cowards who say shit like this with their entire sparrow-y chests.

An illustration by Fritz Schwimbeck (1889-1972) which depicts a dark, arched stone hallway or corridor, rendered in a detailed, scratchy, black-and-white style. A hunched figure, holding a dagger-like object, is shown in silhouette, moving toward a brightly lit, open doorway at the end of the hall. The figure casts a large, distorted shadow on the wall to the right.
