I know Rahm Emanuel. I worked with him for years in the Clinton administration, and then when he was Obama’s chief of staff. Rahm Emanuel represents everything that’s been wrong about the Democratic Party for the last 30+ years. Be warned. robertreich.substack.com/p/the-rahm…

I'll be 37 tomorrow and I don't know shit, just in case anyone is turning 26 and having a menty b about not knowing shit. The only people who are confident that they fully understand pretty much anything are stupid. Be grateful for the self awareness to be embarrassed.

I don't wear fur, but whilst at an estate sale I spotted a genuine fox fur coat and marveled at the irrationally low price set by people who didn't know what they had. As I held it, a horrible old woman who wanted it sneered at me that it looked too small for me. Anyway, I now own a fur coat.

I saw an ambulance parked outside of an apartment building and was worried for a moment about who was inside. Then I saw the driver grinning and skipping steps up to the door with a bouquet of flowers in hand. There's a poem in there, probably.

@goreckis.co asked what album I'd save in a fire. I obviously rejected that question in favor of a top ten as one is ridiculous. In no particular order, they are:
Unreal Unearth, Hozier

Wasteland Baby, Hozier

Bjork, Bjork

Wooden Heart, Listener

Bach's cello suites, JS Bach

I Put a Spell on You, Nina

Simone

Soviet Kitsch, Regina Spektor

To Learn, Leith Ross

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty soundtrack

American Idiot, Green Day

A house on the next block just listed for $975k. It’s a normal house on a normal lot that just a few years ago would’ve been $300k. The median income here is $75k. It’s right next to an elementary school. No one with kids could ever afford it. I’m so fucking disgusted about this.

A lot of people don’t realize the dust bowl wasn’t a natural phenomenon. It happened when agrobusiness interests dramatically transformed the plains without regard for drought, and created vicious dust storms that choked whole families to death. That’s what I think of when I read about data centers.

I want to see US federal candidates proposing legislation requiring that at least one representative from each state is a tribal member as a bare minimum. It is absolutely absurd that we don't already do this, honestly. The reservation "nation within a nation" system is COMICALLY insufficient.
