That's when things get dangerous: when aristocrats grow bored with leisure and mobilize their inherited capital to change the way we all live. Billionaire dilettantes are weapons of mass destruction, and their special projects have a wide blast radius and inflict a *lot* of collateral damage. 33/

If fresh, uncooked food becomes dangerous, then safely feeding yourself and your family becomes more expensive in terms of both effort and money. Food safety deregulation is a mass weapon of class war.

Sorry to lib out but I guess my thought on the Fourth is that if it wasn’t possible for this country to really be an egalitarian multiracial democracy someday, the most disgusting people alive wouldn’t be trying so hard to foreclose that possibility

THE VATICAN IS CALLING IT A SCHISM I REPEAT HOUSTON, WE HAVE A SCHISM

Therefore, this Dicastery, in the faithful exercise of the functions entrusted to it, considers it necessary to state that this act constituted the delict of schism, with the canonical consequences for the sacred ministers and lay faithful involved. Indeed, as was already declared in 1988, "such disobedience-which implies in practice the rejection of the Roman primacy—constitutes a schismatic act" (cf. John Paul II, Apostolic Letter Ecclesia Dei, 3).

I don't know if you've heard but the Catholic Church officially has a schism! Go read @clairewillett.bsky.so 's feed, where she covers everything from the excommunication of the St. Pius X members to Mel Gibson's current religious status. Honestly, I'm out of breath from the whole thing.

My statement on the end of the old InfoWars, and the imminent beginning of a much better one.

“Good riddance to the world’s worst rubbish,” The Onion’s CEO, Ben Collins, wrote in a text to MS NOW. “The second this man is disallowed from abusing these courts, from paying out the $1.4 billion he owes to these families, we are ready to take over with something that will make you forget about what was ever there before. We have a deal with both the Sandy Hook families and the court-appointed receiver, and we look forward to taking over this hellhole imminently.”

“War is over, if you want it,” Collins said, quoting Yoko Ono and John Lennon.

I am excited and honored that @calyxpress.bsky.social has published my short story, “The Schools,” in its gorgeous 50th anniversary issue! This story is a chapter from the novel-in-stories I have been working on for quite a few years. Publication in CALYX has been a goal of mine for many years.

Hand holding a magazine titled CALYX: A Journal of Art and Literature By Women. The cover art is a small, bright red bridge, wet and muddy toward the foreground, over a body of water with green trees on the right side and the opposite shore.

Hand holding the magazine open to the first page of a story titled “The Schools” by Julie M. Goldberg. “You are late to the A&P this afternoon. You have never been here at this liminal hour, when gray women cram the aisles, caught between their work and home selves at 5:40 PM. They grab something easy to heat and clean up for dinner, last-minute school project poster board, emergency tampons, a gallon of milk.
You're usually here in the convent quiet of ten AM, serene and showered, your cool blonde bob under control, after dropping the twins at high school in your workout clothes and then doing two strenuous hours in the gym. You pretend to hate the discipline, but you love the permission to be sweaty, red, ugly, powerful. On tennis days you glory in aggression and competition in the name of maintaining order in the chaotic female body. You are trim, as required; youthful, as expected.
If your husband is, in fact, sleeping with the intern he has referred to exactly twice too often, no one will whisper that it's because you let yourself go.
You move to a place like Alwyn Park for the schools. Everyone says to buy the worst house in the best district you can afford,
but your husband is senior vice president at a boutique investment bank, and you don't need to skimp. You bought a new house: chandeliered, granited, and water-featured. You know who has a walk-in humidor and wine cellar and poolhouse and who mows their own grass and scrubs their own toilets.
You all moved to Alwyn Park for the schools.
••.
Normally you would be home at 5:40 pM, rattling off reminders about school and extracurricular activities to Connor and Morgan as they eat dinner at the peninsula, absorbed in their phones.
They are eighteen and still don't like their peas touching their potatoes.
