The Governor just signed my bill to allow people to sue ICE, Border Patrol, and other federal agents for violating people’s constitutional rights. Starting immediately, people can sue federal agents retroactive to abuse occurring in March 2025.

This is very interesting. Two thoughts: 1. This will be challenged. I wouldn't be surprised if challenges succeed. 2. You should be able to make officials who violate your constitutional rights pay for it, and if nothing else, this bill highlights how difficult it is-particularly w/r/t the feds.

Babe 😭 (Genuinely, read this right now. It's excellent.)
To be fair, I’m not doing so great with men. I told my most recent date that I was working on a novella. “Because you’re Mexican?” he asked. I asked what he meant. “Isn’t a novella a Mexican novel?” Before him was the guy who confessed over drinks that he didn’t “believe in Helen Keller,” because there was “no way she actually flew that plane.” I asked if he meant Amelia Earhart. “Who?” I slept with both of them.

When I think about the US treating Canada like an enemy, I’m reminded that David Foster Wallace saw this coming in Infinite Jest. Sure we don’t have Québécois assassins (afaik) but look at what he described
L a post-Soviet and -Jihad era when—somehow even worse—
there was no real Foreign Menace of any real unified potency to hate and fear, and the U.S. sort of turned on itself and its own philosophical fatigue and hideous redolent wastes with a spasm of panicked rage that in retrospect seems possible only in a time of geopolitical supremacy and consequent silence, the loss of any external Menace to hate and fear.

A tweet from Joyce Carol Oates: overall takeaway from the Curtis Yarvin profile is that there must be millions of smart-aleck show-offy kids who annoy their teachers and go on to annoy other adults through their lives with their “contrarian” pose that hardens to a carapace over their faces; until, as adults, they still harbor a delusion that, if there is a king, or a fuhrer, he’d be impressed with the guys motor mouth and appoint him to his cabinet rather than deleting him with a negligent swipe of his wrist as Stalin did routinely.

Spike, from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, has pale skin and bleach-blonde, slicked-back hair with dark brows.  He's wearing a black tee shirt and is tied to a fluffy red chair at the arms and waist (very loosely).  He's ducking his head and looking up from under his brows sardonically, and giving the camera a two-fingered salute.  It looks like at one point he was wearing black nailpolish, but it's mostly picked away.
