Possibly inspired by YouTube trolls, which would not surprise me, as they are the bulk of this administration. Search for any reaction video to ‘All the President’s Men’ and you will find Nixon apologia.

I had no idea. That’d be fun. I read the first hundred, in the Masterworks series.

In the past, I have directed outlier formatting questions to the WGF Library with a specific title in mind, to see how they accomplished it, and they were kind enough to take a photo of a page and email it back.

Related. “We all consecrate and justify murder and terror when we have the temerity to think that everything is meaningless.” #Camus

“When a democracy is sick, fascism comes to its bedside, but it is not to inquire about its health.” -Albert Camus. I’ve only read a little Camus (‘The Plague’ and ‘The Myth Of Sisyphus’) and have not been able to source this quote to my satisfaction. If you have read it in context, please tell me.

Today, America’s two largest school districts sent a message to the rest of the country that AI in schools is far from inevitable. When we organize and fight back, we win.

An event I attended in Shingu this morning, 500 miles from Nagasaki, waited for a municipal siren/moment of silence at 11.02 to begin. Marking the dropping of the bomb on Nagasaki.
Posters for events at the shingu public library, including an unveiling of a new exhibit on author Nakagami Kenji.

I am gutted. Today the Roberts court spit on the sacrifice of thousands of Black people who endured beatings, arrest, and death to finally access the rights supposedly guaranteed to them by the Constitution. Democracy has only existed in this country for 61 years.

Heav’n from all creatures hides the book of fate, All but the page prescrib’d their present state; From brutes what men, from men what spirits know, Or who could suffer being here below? The lamb thy riot dooms to bleed to-day, Had he thy reason, would he skip and play? Pleas’d to the last, he crops the flow’ry food, And licks the hand just rais’d to shed his blood. Oh blindness to the future! kindly giv’n, That each may fill the circle mark’d by Heav’n; Who sees with equal eye, as God of all, A hero perish, or a sparrow fall, Atoms or systems into ruin hurl’d, And now a bubble burst, and now a world.

—Alexander Pope

This is how fascism comes to America. It’s the endless events, day after day, until one day you wake up in a different country. Anti-immigrant rhetoric, censorship, attacks on universities, masked terror squads murdering people in the streets, enemy lists, denaturalization, camps

I think about this David Milch quote from time to time… “And I thank God that I have lived long enough to have come to understand that the shadow in which I felt that all of my characters had to move and live, in fact, was cast by God’s sheltering hand.”
