“how do we win back trump voters in 2026” we don’t. we create an environment where admitting to voting for trump is so socially embarrassing as to render them completely inert. you don’t “win back” trump voters. you demoralize them into staying home. you make it a dunce cap

Not me standing up in my living room and YELLING at the ending of S1 E2 of MobLand. The Kasablanca remix of Prodigy’s Breathe, Tom Hardy’s stone cold controlled brutality…everything about that scene is PERFECTION. Guy Ritchie…👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Ohhhhh, alllllll the white Republican fajita-loving people in deep-red Danville, CA are going to riot over this. Although, if something this small and insignificant it what it takes to finally turn against their leader, I’ll take it.

Just rewatched the final boss of “O’Brien Must Suffer” DS9 episodes, “Hard Time”. I’ve seen it twice before and knew what was coming and watched anyways. I am a blubbering mess. Please respect my privacy during this self-inflicted difficult time.

There is a moment at the very very end of Abdul El-Sayed's podcast with Ezra Klein (book recommendation section) where he talks about the idea of "speaking truth to pain" and this will be staying with me for an extremely long time. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/25/o...
But there’s also something about truth to pain. We talk a lot about truth to power, but I think it’s actually a lot harder to speak truth to pain. I say that as someone who went to medical school, realizing that in a lot of our politics right now, we’ve got to get a lot better at speaking truth to pain if we’re going to get through some of these challenges that we have.

What does “truth to pain” mean?

It’s one thing to look power in the eye and say: You’re wrong about this. But there’s a way in which pain is very difficult to reason with. Because when somebody is in their pain, they’re in their trauma. They see that pain, and they may not see what’s causing it.

I remember just very explicitly being in a trauma ward with a gunshot wound patient and watching this big guy with his hand on his gunshot wound. All the folks are trying to pull his hand off his pain, that point of his gunshot wound, this clear vulnerability.

And this emergency room doctor had the presence of mind to be like: Everyone, stop. And she looks him in the eyes, and she’s like: I get that really hurts, and I’m so sorry that you’re here. You don’t want to be here. We don’t want you to be here. But if you don’t let us fix this, you could die. So I’m going to take your hand, and I’m going to move it off, OK? Because I need to get there so that you can live.

She was speaking truth to pain. He understands he’s at the hospital, he needs care, but he also doesn’t want anybody to touch the wound. Which is a natural thing. And I think it is a really great metaphor for how we think about a lot of these challenges we talked about today.

Hear me out… I’m choosing the man because if I am in the forest there’s a good chance there’s a heavy rock nearby and I know I can smash a man’s skull in with that rock if I had to. Against a bear and those claws and teeth, I stand less of a chance.

Reminds me of the video of the dad who requests step by step instructions on how to make a PB&J from his two children. A fairly simple task, but the devil is in details and the execution. A hilariously frustrating take on how difficult it can be to document a simple process.

The White House press bans aren’t about ethics in journalism. They're about what Trump wants from the press: servile propaganda that parrots only what he and his allies say about his administration.

Trump’s press grievances are based in their refusal to do propaganda

*extremely tired voice*AI agents don't "go rogue". They are not sentient; they don't have agency. They work within guardrails set by humans. If the humans are so shit at building secure sandboxes for the agents to work within, that's on the humans. Stop using this framing.

Petitition to eliminate the word "quietly" from any reporting of the atrocities this administration is VERY LOUDLY committing. None of the chaos is happening quietly. None of it is under the radar. They are bragging about it. Literally bragging any chance they get.
