Ooooh, are we sharing fables? I got one for you. So, there's this frog that enters public service, presumably for the right reasons. He spends years as a district judge, then gets elected to the state supreme court, then attorney general of that state. (thread)
An old, but apt fable:

A scorpion wants to cross a river but cannot swim, so it asks a frog to carry it across. The frog hesitates, afraid that the scorpion might sting it, but the scorpion promises not to, pointing out that it would drown if it killed the frog in the middle of the river. The frog considers this argument sensible and agrees to transport the scorpion. Midway across the river, the scorpion stings the frog anyway, dooming them both. The dying frog asks the scorpion why it stung despite knowing the consequence, to which the scorpion replies: "I am sorry, but I couldn't help myself. It's my character."

"she has always sparked more fear than lust in the hearts of men" - amanda lovelace I love this line so much. I think because I've always been on the chubby/fat side of things that I was rarely the girl inspiring lust in men. and while younger me found that sad, there were certainly times

Not an original point but worth saying again - there is not a single element in this picture that identifies any of these folks as law enforcement agents. No badges, no uniforms, no vests. Out of context it just looks like a bunch of random guys are kidnapping a mayoral candidate.

Musk should be asked about this in every interview he does now and forever. To ignore it is a dereliction of duty. www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/o...
There is one place, however, where Musk, with the help of his minions, achieved his goals. He did indeed shred U.S.A.I.D. Though a rump operation is now operating inside the State Department, the administration says that it has terminated more than 80 percent of U.S.A.I.D. grants. Brooke Nichols, an associate professor of global health at Boston University, has estimated that these cuts have already resulted in about 300,000 deaths, most of them of children, and will most likely lead to significantly more by the end of the year. That is what Musk’s foray into politics accomplished.

Seeing modern public libraries, one of America's greatest innovations and contributions to the world, be attacked, politicized, and conquered by authoritarians is too much to bear. Declaring library books "government speech" is horrifying. Check on your librarians, we are not okay.

“Take a breath man, it’s not that serious.” Unbelievable statement an ICE agent told a man who collapsed after being handcuffed following his immigration hearing. The overzealous agents had the wrong man & would have kidnapped him had his attorney not insisted in reviewing the arrest warrant.

The man was just exiting from the courtroom with his attorney when an agent grabbed his arm and several more surrounded him.

Paid subscription not in your budget right now? Free subscribers are also a huge help, because a large, engaged subscriber base shows potential sponsors and advertisers that we're worth investing in. Sharing this with comrades is also a great way to help!
