Soon we're going to have movies where the hero's montage is not them going through arcane and brutal physical training so they can win the fight, but them sitting down and scribbling their own thoughts with a pencil grasped in both hands

I shouldn't be shocked, but I'm still always brought up short to realize how many people think "civility" means "white people speaking in relatively calm voices" no matter what vile shit they say.

remember this; try if the things some people are trying look useless or stupid to you maybe they are, find something that seems smart. and keep an eye on whether or not the shit other people are trying works.

'As the Stanford political scientist Adam Bonica has shown, rather than pursuing efficiency, Trump and Musk are simply taking a chainsaw to whatever institution is considered “liberal” and assists the worst-off. The result will be an executive all at once unchained, chaotic, and corrupt.'

Trump is concentrating power. A key faction of judges supports the idea | Jan-Werner Müller

The ‘unitary executive’ theory – backed by some conservative lawyers – is largely bogus. But it could wreak havoc on democracy

scores of pissed off Mormon CIA agents who just got canned are ideologically cross-pollinating with platoons of fired trans FBI agents. we are on the verge of new types of politics our ancestors could only dream about

I'm at the very tender moment in some artistic research reflective writing where I have to contend with the extent to which I am, in fact, a hack comedian

This morning at Jyväskylä train station cafe picnic had small coffee for 1,50 and large for 3,90 so i ordered two small ones, making a show of looking over my shoulder back at the crowd to indicate my friend is waiting there and would also like a coffee. I am traveling alone

Having a thing where I see some performers who used to be at the same stage as me now doing like really fucking well but with the shittiest politics and I feel like if they weren't allowed to live in my head rent free I'd have more time to pitch my show to netflix or whatever

Getting a lot of instagram stories from white cis gay European men who are very pro-Israel and like my guy, you had a great orgy in Tel Aviv once, that isn't lived experience of the area

It's a little funny trying to imagine what to post here, mainly because the lesson i got from the end of Twitter was largely to be quiet and not really offer much of myself.
