This is coming from a place of warmth and acceptance… -It’s ‘sleight of hand’ -It’s ‘bated breath’ -It’s ‘lo and behold’ -It’s ‘one fell swoop’ -It’s ‘brass tacks’ -It’s ‘free rein’

It's not just Iran whose surrender is being demanded. It's yours. Your hope. Your belief in yourself and our collective potential. Your empathy. They want to crush those things. They want you to believe their will is inevitable. They want you to surrender.

Millions of American voters wanted to be villains. They came to believe it’s the key to success, while goodness is weak, woke, loser stuff, done only to signal. Offered the option of unvarnished villainy, they enthusiastically took it. Seeing others suffer more made them feel big. And here we are.

“I don’t think the president’s personal militia recruited from white supremacist gangs can be reformed” shouldn’t be a controversial statement, or taken as anything but an obvious statement of fact, and yet here we are.

You know how when someone says "Peace be with you", you say "and also with you"? New version: when someone says "fuck ice"; you either say "fuck ice" or "absolutely".

This is an "administrative warrant". It's not signed by a judge and is therefore unlawful. ICE agents carry stacks of these around in their cars and just fill them out on the fly. Make sure everyone knows what this looks like, as they have already started going door-to-door in some neighborhoods.

Guess I'll post this again
A digital poster in the style of a World War II propaganda piece. Isolaed on a yellow background, a normal, squarish, 20-something guy with glasses is sitting working on a laptop. A ghostly figure of Hitler has his arm around the guy and is grinning and shaking a fist triumphantly looking at the laptop screen. On the lid of the laptop where an apple might otherwise be is an openAI logo, bright green, and dripping green ooze down the lid. Text on the poster, in combinations of sans-serif type and brush script reads: 
Using Generative AI?
You’re prompting with Hitler!
GenAI is a Fascist Project!
Try using your brain instead
Don’t surrender your creativity to the tech billionaire’s control

By the way, it's National Editor Appreciation Day. Nobody ever reads a great article and thinks, "Dang, that was some tight editing." But editing is a big part of how it got to be great. So writers, if you've ever worked with a good editor, shout 'em out.

I have 3 axioms that help me decide when to talk to people I disagree with: 1. To debate a subject is to concede that the subject is debatable. 2. To reason with a person is to concede that the person is reasonable. 3. To ask for evidence of a claim is to concede that the claim might be true.

“Did I give you this election, Daddy?” Tesla cattily purred. America fisted its big beautiful bill and wedged it between Tesla’s thighs, which spread wider than the wealth gap after trickle down economics. “You’re my little Epstein file,” America rasped, “because I want to see what’s inside you.”
