RIP Kurt Vonnegut. Gone 18 yrs. Dang.

In an age of open hostility, Terry Pratchett’s decency is more urgent than ever
Ten years after his death, Terry Pratchett’s funny, clever (and bestselling) books remind us that it's not enough to be good in our hearts, writes Marc Burrows. We must refuse to accept a world define...

How long have you got? 😂 The Witches books (particularly Wyrd Sisters through Lords & Ladies) are my faves, but honestly I adore almost all of them. I discovered Terry when I was 15 and he’s done more to shape my worldview than any other author except possibly Victor Hugo.

Sir Terry Pratchett left us ten years ago today, and I really, really miss him. “Fear is a strange soil. It grows obedience like corn, which grow in straight lines to make weeding easier. But sometimes it grows the potatoes of defiance, which flourish underground.”

There are times when you must speak, not because you are going to change the opposing side, but because if you do not speak, they have changed you.

Every time I see a Marc Thiessen headline, the words “Oh, fuck off!” rise unbidden to my lips. I already cancelled my subscription, but since I’d paid through September I was still doing puzzles and occasionally reading articles. Now I really am trying to divest and not even give clicks.

So this is what passes for statesmanship in the Oval Office in 2025. Trump and Vance should (but won’t) be deeply ashamed. They could at least try to eschew licking Putin’s boots in public. They demand respect and gratitude? What exactly have they done to earn it? #IstandwithUkraine

Last time I looked at PCC (admittedly, weeks ago) their eggs were actually cheaper than Freddie’s, but with the caveat that supplies were limited. I think initially it may have been that free range were less susceptible to bird flu spreading. But I think that ship has sailed. 😢

Good news! My “ruthless compartmentalization to the point of dissociation” has passed right on through to “really fucking pissed off.” Better late than never, eh?

I’m a little worried about how calm I am. I fear that my “ruthless compartmentalization” skill, which has allowed me to function in times of stress, has crossed over to outright dissociation. 😳

The question, O me! so sad, recurring—What good amid these, O me, O life? Answer. That you are here—that life exists and identity, That the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse. (fin)

Of eyes that vainly crave the light, of the objects mean, of the struggle ever renew’d, Of the poor results of all, of the plodding and sordid crowds I see around me, Of the empty and useless years of the rest, with the rest me intertwined, (2/3)

O Me! O Life! By Walt Whitman Oh me! Oh life! of the questions of these recurring, Of the endless trains of the faithless, of cities fill’d with the foolish, Of myself forever reproaching myself, (for who more foolish than I, and who more faithless?) (cont’d)
