I want to chat about something not SSA related for a second because sometimes we just need to be reminded that humanity isn’t all bad. Hope comes in all forms so let’s talk about why the launch of The Irina Foundation yesterday has me in my feels. Linking it here at the top so it doesn’t get lost.

I have lost all patience with the apparently unshakeable conviction that striking a reasonable, moderate pose means assuming the sincerity of transparently pretextual horseshit. Donald Trump does not care about reducing crime in DC. He is testing and normalizing paramilitary deployments in cities.

Newsom can't be President because he's an asshole with bad politics but he can absolutely goad the current President into doing dumb and loud shit and there is no greater need in the moment than a loathsome fuck to anger and annoy the other loathsome fuck

Also, this plot never fails to scare me. All of recorded human history - domesticated crops, cities, religion, etc. - happened during an anomalously stable period in our climate history. Our efforts have now pushed us out of that zone. Humans existed before then... but we were migratory.

There's also the question of why NYTimes is devoting any coverage at all to a failed primary candidate with no endorsement from any party's voters. If Cuomo had won, would Mamdami get puff pieces about his proposals too? I think we all know the answer to that one.
