History doesn't reset the day after Trump. It's not automatic back to normal, yay democracy won. We will still have a republic that is gravely wounded and bleeding out. Defeating the current assailant doesn't mean you've stopped the bleeding. The wounds are still there and still potentially fatal.

I am opposed to property damage, particularly of historic sites. But the number of people who are okay with mass death but attack France as degenerate for mass property damage is just insane worship of wealth over human lives.

Wild rose Solitary and unabashed Behind the river's bend Singing softly in the quiet of night I looked for you No longer there So I carry you in my heart of hearts Into tomorrow #videography #photography #journal #nature #EastCoastKin

If Putin stops fighting, the war ends. If Zelensky stops fighting then his country will be occupied, leaders murdered, language banned, businesses stolen, children kidnapped. That's what happens in Russian-occupied Ukraine.

The Night of the Hunter the first and last film directed by Charles Laughton about those venerable American subjects fear, sex, money, and religion. A work of art, but also deeply troubling. Astonishing. I have lost count of the amount of times I have watched this remarkable film.

the muslim hate in this country has become policy, but you don’t get 7,000 think pieces about how that makes american muslims feel.

I don't know how it was elsewhere but Freddie Jackson was a fixture on contemporary R&B radio in NYC through the mid-late '80s. I feel like he was even giving Luther some comp for a brief period of time. RIP to a Harlem legend. 🕊️

I just finished singing “You Are My Lady” by Freddie Jackson the whole time I was in the shower. Complete w/ adlibs that don’t even exist in the song. I have no idea where that came from or why I’m sharing it.

i especially love all the dopes saying “when the internet first went mainstream everyone hated it too” like it happened in the pioneer days so no one can dispute it, like mf’ers we were THERE

We were there when Google was new. It was great. We were there when the web was born. It was astonishing. We don't have to be convinced when new tech is worth it. It's obvious. AI is obvious, too. It's obviously terrible.

Part of why I don't like the AI-or-bust economy is the constant flopsweat of people on the news who say this HAS to work. Quit making everyone so anxious. Goddamn. If this is the next Google then why are you acting like this? I don't remember being told to buy an iPhone at gunpoint.

Ok, Helsinki nedwalkies round 1 : random scenes from downtown. Autumn in Finland is the “blink & you’ll miss it” variety so my timing on this trip was solid, the leaf changes have just started at the botanical garden. 🧵
