idealism is a dick to progress. ive seen so many progressives fall by the wayside because of small discrepancies in philosophy... like, please, dont dunk on someone because they refuse to spell africa with a 'k'... aint none of us "revolutionaries" free... and we aint got time for that shit.

Good morning—I need to make
$45 today, hopefully before noon, so I can get an important act of car maintenance done before the holiday (and not having to punt it to next week). If you can help, I’d be grateful. My Venmo is @Matt-Stefon and my PayPal is www.paypal.com/paypalme/Mat.... Thanks so much.

Chords under the hands, to be spanned
Sustained: extremity hates a given good
Or a good gained. That girl who took
Her life almost, then wrote a book
To exorcise and to exhibit the sin,

The only title I can think of is Four Arguments for the Elimination of Television by Morris Berman. Probably not quite the thing, eh? A good book, though, as I recall.

Instead of sharing "just vote harder" sentiments, let me implore you to get involved in your hyper local community. Talk to your neighbors, help when you can. Donate to food pantries, volunteer with outreach orgs. Get involved with your library board or Friends of the Library group - (1/?)

The United States has always been a democracy for some and a brutal authoritarian regime for others, and the effort to expand it to democracy for all has led to a 70+ year backlash culminating in SCOTUS claiming that kings are totes cool and also judges are the ones to coronate them

Some kind of action would have been nice, instead of "it's all on you, so vote for me." Ugh.

I broke my rule and watched Biden's remarks about the SCOTUS decision. He put the whole thing on "the American people" and basically said, welp, that's it, they changed things, it's bad, now you fix it. I suspect within the trad powers he holds he COULD do something besides posture. Ugh.

Oddly enough I'm reading David Rothenberg's Blue Cliff Record right about now. stuff like: ..."Too hot, too cold, fragile beings will die. If not this season, then maybe the next. Grifters sell sham silver cities."

STFU! Do not vent! Do not display your bravery! It's not just you! If you say dumb sh*t, anyone associated with you can be tagged with it. "Associates with violent . . . with tattoos of" = reasonable suspicion = criminal predicate for an investigation. That's how U.S. counterterrorism works.

I started my career reporting on how people were using the Internet in dictatorships, and if there's one BIG thing I learned from talking to a bunch of people who literally had served jail time for political blogging, it was "choose your battles wisely, and don't say dumb things in dumb places."

Lots of tall grasses here beautifully going to seed. My task right now is to clear some out of an area by the barn. I have a minor allergy to the pollen, be glad when this is done. They are beautiful nonetheless!
