The idea that anyone much less Trump is gonna build the next TAPS for LNG soon & that it will be profitable & reduce energy dependence/make jobs is a secular article of faith akin to belief in the afterlife: it's prob wrong & the stakes of finding out are high but people self-soothe by believing it.

My deadbeat daddy said he'd buy me a pony and ride it with me to Disneyland next weekend! This is a post about Trump promising to make South Korea pay for Alaska LNG.

Throwing a tantrum over P'Burg Dan. Planting a story in the NYT & pretending to be offended by Mary's choice words & HR practices. Now getting that clown to promise zillions of South Korean $ for LNG only to have Korea refute that BS publicly within 24h. Ohio Dan's stench of desperation is rancid.

If you want accountability from powerful institutions in 2026, your only recourse is to name & shame them. Not just the individuals, but the systems that let individuals offend with impunity. You have to make them so uncomfortable, humiliated & financially vulnerable that they're forced to respond.

Powerful institutions like universities and governments generally care about how things look, not how things are. That's why you have to create a giant PR, legal, or administrative nightmare for them in order to extract even an ounce of accountability. I know this from several personal experiences.

I grew up on the 9th floor of a 100-unit apartment building and I live in a duplex now. So many people turn up their noses at multiunit housing because they "can't share a wall" or "want their land" and/or are frankly classist about multiunit living. It's a big part of our housing crisis.

Today I informed my daughter that your real lifelong friends will hate all the same people as you. The mark of a true friendship is the unbreakable bond of mutual contempt and disgust for one's fellow man.

You know when public attention can reverse a prosecutorial decision like this you almost get the sense that the decision to shrug it off in the first place was not based on an assessment of the quality of the evidence so much as an assessment of the seriousness of the crime.

You can expect an article a day from now until Election Day throwing dirt on Mary's name. Why? Legacy media's corporate benefactors are terrified she will flip the senate. As Beyoncé said, "you know you that bitch when you cause all this conversation." Keep it coming.

It has been 11 months since Juneau voted to lower the property tax cap and eliminate sales tax on food, also blowing a large hole in the budget.

There's a big difference between "defending bad behavior" and questioning why it needs to be front page news in the New York Times. I realize this is a nuanced distinction in an era where nuance-blindness is more common than blinking. Nonetheless, it's a distinction worth making.

You know Mary's got Ohio Dan running scared for his job if they have to plant a story in the NYT about her cursing & asking staff to feed crickets to her kid's pet chameleon & actually believe these "revelations" will get her canceled instead of further exposing OD for the pathetic clown that he is.

The NYT is now the official HR Department for Mary Peltola's office I guess? That'd be OK if: -They were an HR office not a newspaper -They held any male politician to the same standard -If ending fascism were less important than Mary cursing in a text message. Alas none of these things is true.

Oh look! Trumpism is thisclose to going down in flames! NYT: "HOLD UP! Let's do a petty hit piece on a historic race just to make EXTRA SURE we preserve the status quo of the unmitigated hellscape we've been trapped in for over a decade."

Okay, so I have a plan to get everyone on our side. First, we be absolutely as viscerally unpleasant as possible. Next, we downplay any time we get what we want, say it's the bare minimum and so forth. Finally, if anyone gives up and says we win or apologizes, we belittle them.

In 2015 when I started sounding the alarm bells about Trumpism and in 2018 when I got fired for sounding that alarm and lost all my colleagues and was pitied and mocked for getting what I deserved not even I could have imagined where we are now. It gives me zero pleasure to have been this correct.

This November, AK has a rare chance to end 8 years of state-level Temu Trumpism and to send the emptiest suit goon-bot the state has ever seen packing from DC. We rarely do anything un-MAGAish at the polls, but maybe $26/gallon gas will finally awaken the bears of reason and rage in the electorate.

This book reads like something that would emerge by asking Claude to write a hackneyed cringe-novel inspired by the 80s board game Scruples, the COVID pandemic, social media, the Trump administration, and a freshman political science/philosophy class at a small liberal arts college in New England.

IMO the worst part of generative AI is how its prevalence upends the concept of reality to the point that it forces us all to question the authenticity (not even the veracity) of everything we read, see, and hear. It's like some form of mass gaslighting and it is understandably making us all crazy.

I'm getting reflective about turning 49 this year and I'm realizing I have really bad FOMO. Specifically FOMOMOMOA which is a fear of missing out on Jason Momoa. I don't have a lot of time to realize my full potential with this.

I don't think I've ever read the whole transcript of Todd Beamer on flight 93 even though I read the whole 911 commission report. I just read it and my heart was beating out of my chest. I felt like I was going to have a heart attack just reading it. I can't believe the bravery of those people.

25 years ago, I was 23 years old and working 2 blocks from the WTC. The things I saw, felt, and experienced in that 1.5 hours were life altering and are trauma-seared into my mind forever. My parents' FDNY next door neighbor died. I am in a long term respiratory health study. That shit was no joke.

Maybe Dahlstrom smuggled Treggarick back on the ballot because it's starting to dawn on AKGOP that both Wilson & Bronson are both unelectable clown dongs & the party is gonna force them to stand down & cape for Treg. Which makes the whole JKT/Begich gambit even more dangerous. Hope this ages badly.
