I honestly didn’t think anything was wrong until instagram decided I’m so pathetic that it had to lie to me for no reason that one of my friends is concerned about my mental health because I tried at a dark joke. Anyways, things have changed now. This is a sneak peak on how I’m starting my note.

There's something deeply obscene and broken about the fact that Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are bombing elementary schools in an illegal war of aggression, and there's still a sense among the opposition that it has to be explained in terms of gas prices in order to get American voters to care.

I used to think Bush 2 was obviously worse (and I still think Trump's first term was not as bad as anything Bush 2 did) - but I think Trump's second term, especially the shutting down of USAID and who knows where this warmongering will now lead, has taken over and made him worst US Pres of my life.

A lot of small children struggle at a birthday party that isn’t theirs. It feels not fair that someone else is opening presents, getting sung to, and is the center of attention. But then we realize there are other people that have birthdays. Trump took that lesson personally

"The media continues to cover politics as if it is still the 1990s. 'Both parties are basically center-right or center-left parties.' The journalism infrastructure in our country wants to pretend that that’s the world that we live in. The instinct is to treat everything politicians say as valid."

I'd love to get a counter factual machine that lets me see what would have happened to American conservatism if Obama had not been elected in 2008 and either a white male Dem or a Rep had instead. Would it be less wacky now? It's really really tempting to think so, but I'd love to be able to check.

This is absolutely incredible -- Kristi Noem repeatedly refuses to acknowledge that Trump brandished an doctored image of Abrego Garcia's tattoos, prompting Eric Swalwell to have a staffer of his brandish an image of them right in her face. Totally dystopian.

There was a moment when movies (rather than novels) took over as the primary form of fiction in our culture. At some point we’ll all need to admit that YouTube videos have taken the non-fiction mantle.

My sense in the UK is that we should start examining what is happening in the Netherlands, Italy, and the US and anticipate some such future for ourselves. Reasonably well established democracies (Italy maybe an edge case?) wherein their local variant on nationalist populists took power...

New in PN: The made for TV sec def "Hegseth is essentially playing the role of sec def on TV for a president who wants a vapid figurehead rather than someone competent. His job is to serve as a square-jawed caricature of MAGA masculinity. By that measure, he's doing exactly what he was hired for."

You know what? The EU & UK should put tariffs on US goods (from red states) in solidarity with Canada and Mexico. Rather than watching others get bullied and waiting our turn - we should unify against this bullying until the bully drops that behaviour.

Dont worry, you will easily be able to pay for the increased prices from the tariffs once all the money trickles down from the corporations being taxed less. Ronald Regans should be getting here any day now, and then we will get Trumps. :)
