Today on LaT Won’t Shut Up About Nirvana In Fire, let’s talk about Baili Qi! Baili Qi vs. the Middle Schoolers™️ is one of my favorite subplots in the show. But let’s give that big beautiful bear of a man his propers — because what he does is kind of quietly remarkable.

I wish I’d found this video on Graham Platner when he was still in the race/during his rise, but I’m still sharing it because it perfectly encapsulates the problem I had with him (and frankly, his most ardent & vocal supporters). youtu.be/m8bE13OJ_es?...

Back on my Nirvana In Fire bullshit** and the YouTube live stream is at the Emperor‘s birthday party. And once again, I am just going to say: put some respect on the name of His Royal Highness Xiao Jingyan. Because the ministers stepping forward to press the Emperor? That’s all on Prince Jing.

And another goddamned thing abt Platner: stop framing the prior criticisms of him as a failure of wanting ‘perfect’ ppl to run for office. That’s not the issue & never has been. The issue is that the prior “red flags” were all things that rendered his judgment unsound for office.

Said this elsewhere but I’m bringing it here because I saw the way folks acted about Graham Platner, especially when others criticized him. For everyone now posturing about how ‘if everyone has to be perfect, no one would run for office’ and whinging about hearing “I told you so,” this is for you:

the point of due process is to guarantee one's rights are respected in a system where they are in danger of being, and all too often *are*, ignored. there is no right to not have voters deem you unqualified for the senate, much less not have the general public deem you an asshole.

I’m tooling around the house so of course the Nirvana in Fire livestream is on and today—briefly—I want to talk about Tong Lu. The more you rewatch things the more of the background, lower-tier character work you start to notice. TBRH it’s not surprising to me he was susceptible to Jun Niang.

so far, much of the analysis of Callais out there is focused on what the Court's rulings did to the Voting Rights Act, which is reasonable but now I want to talk about what the Court did to the Constitution bc the threat of Callais goes far beyond the VRA alone ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/alito...

The Court’s decision in Callais will make it more challenging for Congress to pass laws designed to protect multiracial democracy.

I don't believe for one second they wouldn't be down with banning these drugs, but my personal conspiracy theory is that some of them know this ends with banning birth control, and they don't want to be on the bench when that one drops. The speedrun to 1890 got away from them.

#NirvanaInFire I love Prince Yu but his continual surprise in Episode 44 that his l i t e r a l general of a baby brother & said baby brother’s cohorts keep out-strategizing him is so funny to me. Did he just hear the Charlie Brown adults every time someone pointed out that Prince Jing is a soldier?

#NirvanaInFire This is very me specific, but low-key one of the funniest things to me is how Dadperor never throws anything at Jingyan. He does to Jinghuan & Xia Jiang. I think he even tries at one point to Jingxuan. But I always feel like he can’t be sure Jingyan won’t just throw it back at him. 😂

There is a direct throughline from this and the rise in global authoritarianism. Authoritarianism is actively hostile toward the arts and intellectualism, and thus imagination. When people say that AI is a “fascist project,” this is explicitly what they’re referring to.
