My phone autocorrected capricious to capricorn and that feels both very wrong and very right.

I had really weird, hyper detailed dreams about family in distress last night. Sometimes I think about brains and wonder why they are so capricious.

Numbers of left handed people living in the country of "we kill left handed people" have dropped. What's causing it is unclear.

Arizona and Virginia, both of which are governed by Democrats, are ending Medicaid coverage of care for trans youth, Transitics has learned. The bans, which go into effect on October 13th, mark the most significant Democratic capitulation to Trump's anti-trans demands yet. Cowards.

Democrat-led Arizona, Virginia Quietly End Medicaid Coverage of Care for Trans Youth, Acquiescing to Trump Demands

The policy changes, which go into effect on October 13th, see Arizona and Virginia join Kansas as states where Democrats have needlessly opted to restrict Medicaid coverage of gender-affirming care.

El-Sayed and Ossoff are showing Democrats how to actually push against the GOP nonsense. Everyone should take notes.

Good to see that the assassination of Melissa Hortman & her husband Mark, followed by the government murders of Alex Pretti & Renee Good, have convinced Minnesota Republicans to stop using dangerous rhetoric that could incite violence.

At some point it just becomes apparent that every aspect of modern life is predatory.

The entire Republican platform is racism and queerphobia. There's nothing else. They don't want to help anyone. They have no policies. Nothing.

This is a great little examination of something that's been bugging me for years... the need for media to explain away evil acts. To make everything have a "reason". To turn bad people into sympathetic characters. It's killing storytelling. www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio...

Cruel torment, depraved violence, evil turns: where did TV’s real baddies go?

From Carrie’s bullies to Cathy Ames, sympathetic backstories have made villains boring. It’s time to bring back truly awful villains – in all their deliciously sinful glory

was literally talking about this idea today with @joshuafoust.com's class. glad @karlbode.com went long: we aren't living in a polarized time, but instead a time when one party has been radicalized to the extreme corners of its ideology. karlbode.com/the-problem-...

The Problem Is Right Wing Extremism, Not 'Polarization'

Ambiguous media whining about "polarization" or "partisan tribalism" redirects attention away from the real cause of modern U.S. division: violent right wing extremism.

I've always been into perfume. But I've recently started to try to get better at knowing notes and things. I might make a video about it? I feel ancient thinking about making a video for the socials though.

The biggest reason that there shouldn't be billionaires is that they all seem to think they should get to control everything and are beyond criticism. They are a literal threat.

School music programs are getting absolutely bodied by tariffs, per @nytimes.com: www.nytimes.com/2026/10/02/b...

The effective tariff rate on instruments in June was about 13 percent, said Cullen Hendrix, a senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics. That was down from a peak of nearly 24 percent last September but more than twice as high as before Mr. Trump’s second term.
Band and orchestral instruments have been hit the hardest, he said. In the second quarter of this year, imports of instruments were down nearly 20 percent from the same period in 2024. Imports of orchestral string instruments, including violins, violas and cellos, dropped 50 percent. Brass instruments fell 43 percent.

“It’s hitting the horns, it’s hitting the strings, it’s hitting the percussion,” Mr. Hendrix said. “All of those things combined are kind of sapping the available pool of tools that we can provide these children to begin their journey.”
