Nothing makes me lose confidence in knowing my password faster than knowing there are only five chances to get my password right.

"People often misunderstand nonviolent protest. It is not merely eschewing violence. It doesn’t mean that we are silent or that we are not angry. Instead, nonviolent protest means, among many things, that we understand who we are fighting."

Remember the other day when I was saluting my friend Greg Ketter, owner of Minneapolis’ DreamHaven Books? This is him the following day. Greg will never say this, so I will — now is a great time to buy books from DreamHaven. Support Americans who stand up vs. 🧊. dreamhavenbooks.com

I’m asking too much from the gay hockey player show, but it’s not fixing my anxiety about the state of the world.

This approach, of course, is quite familiar to communities that have been dealing with police abuses for as long as there have been professional police forces. In 2000, then–New York City Mayor and future Trump adviser Rudy Giuliani justified the killing of the Haitian American Patrick Dorismond by police by quipping that he was “no altar boy.” Embarrassingly for Giuliani, whose capacity for shame was overestimated even then, it turned out that Dorismond had literally been an altar boy. Dorismond’s mother responded to the campaign to justify her son’s killing with an observation that continues to haunt me decades later.

“They kill,” Dorismond said, “and after that, they kill him the other way—with the mouth.”

Taking Good’s life wasn’t enough. The moment she died, it became imperative for the administration to also destroy her memory.

My least favorite part about AI so far is that when I see, “Weird Al” I question whether I’m reading about one of the greatest musicians of our time or a new strange development in or technological hellscape.

More bake-off tonight and learning that Iain is baller enough to land a lady who is a foot taller than him and attends a regular pole dancing class. Still rooting for Jessika, this drag king.
