Wisely Quiet

YOU DON'T "CONSUME" ART MOTHERFUCKER. YOU EXPERIENCE IT. YOU FEEL IT. YOU ENGAGE WITH IT. YOU WRESTLE WITH IT. YOU LIVE IT. ART ISN'T A LITTLE MORSEL YOU GOBBLE UP.

ICE is horrible and needs to be abolished, but I love watching face-eating leopards eat the faces of people who thought they wouldn't eat their faces.

1) Too bad he isn't an elected official who can do something about it. /s 2) Why the hell are so many Democrats doing these passenger side videos? I'd like to think they'd be able to get someone who could be a little creative with backgrounds for these kinds of videos.

And this man will once again be the Senate Majority Leader should Dems take the Senate so that nothing will change.

@funranium.bsky.social For all the times you blessed my timeline with Spam musubi, I now bless yours with conbini (FamilyMart) Spam musubi.

I never really bought into the “both parties are the same” rhetoric but, holy crap, Dems are really okay with Trump just doing whatever he wants so long as they don’t have to take a position on anything.

Because of vociferous public opposition, there will be no ICE warehouse in Merrimack, New Hampshire. whdh.com/news/dhs-opt...

On my way to Japan!!

A lot of our political discourse would be easier if we didn't extend good faith to people who would never extend it back.

MICROSOFT: "We're putting AI in Windows!" CUSTOMERS: "No, please don't do that." MICROSOFT: "You'll drink this fucking AI even if we have to hold your nose closed and use a vice to keep your jaws open." CUSTOMERS: "That only sounds bad." MICROSOFT: "Why have customers abandoned Windows?"

You cannot credibly claim that you’re supporting Gavin Newsom in lieu of any other viable option right now. You are doing it because for some inexplicable reason you have failed to notice he has horrendous political instincts (beyond hiring a good social media team he does not deserve).

It’s a good thing Congress isn’t alive to see this

Does anyone really believe there has been a crisis of conscience pushing legislatures around the world to spend significant resources and time being more compassionate to the dying (something already possible through hospice) by the same legislators who are cutting health and hospice care budgets?

Folks need to examine philosophically why it is that—in the span of just a couple of years—the leaders of the American Democratic, Canadian Liberal & British Labour Parties have all gone all in on assisred suicide (while making healthcsre harder to attain) www.cityandstateny.com/policy/2025/...

Some meth dealer just struck gold after Stephen Miller bought out his whole stock to pump into Trump so Vance doesn't become president.

Gavin Newsom is a genuinely bad person and any admiration you have for him needs to be directed toward actually good people like JB Pritzker or Andy Beshear.

How Britain got the Honorable Order of Bass Drinkers while Americans got the milkshake IPA.

Average young Democratic talent: 42, policy staffer for a 72 year old Senator or first term state rep whose Congressional district is held by a 68 year old who will never retire Average young Republican “talent”: 27, jacks off to Spanish nationalist atrocities, GS-12 at DHS, will run for Congress

This will have to count as my Supreme Court term review. I make that point that there's no point in reviewing what the Supreme Court has done because the rule of law is dead in this country anyway. My latest in @thenation.com

Frustrating to hear liberals use "misinformation" as an excuse for being so late to realizing that the genocide is a genocide, or at the very least a terrifying attempt at ethnic cleansing (ahem, The Atlantic). Palestinians have said this for years now. You didn't listen. This is from 2023:

"Because politically conservative, deeply religious Jews are the embodiments of true Jewishness, they are the only subset of the American Jewish community with the authority to define antisemitism and capacity to experience it." Good piece. lpeproject.org/blog/how-the...

New from me: The internet is built on sameness. People hawk the same stuff, use the same music, write the same SEO articles. Now the aesthetics and modes of the web have escape into the real world.

As someone who voted for Kamala Harris, Dems/Liberals/Speakers of Truth, simply cannot save or sanewash Biden's legacy on Gaza. There's no version of this where he's not a villain, even if we accept the premise that, on net, Trump has been worse.

I wrote this newsletter post in response to this exact phenomenon. www.dataandpolitics.net/the-selectio...

Rich white man who fucked up badly needs to explain why he didn't fuck up badly in Nazi jiz rag.

I wish I lived in the AU where Rahm Emanuel stayed in Japan and ran a podcast about the best vegan restaurants to visit on each island.

I genuinely think what we’re seeing is the Big Sign that the traditionally liberal establishment (both the Dems and media) are owned by exactly the same people as the conservatives. If they’re willing to dive this far headfirst into open racism, there’s nowhere they aren’t willing to go.

Enough of you asked me about this that I wrote some brief thoughts on Ocean Ramsey's particular brand of pseudoscientific nonsense. I believe this addresses almost all of the frequently asked questions I receive, but as always I am happy to answer serious questions asked in good faith. 🧪🦑🌎🦈

I cannot fathom any reason to speak positively about the Biden administration on anything, including the IRA which made it more expensive to buy EVs, at this point. Everything he did, no matter how good it was overall, was always at least one or more steps back on something important.

Looking over microfilm while doing some research was one of the coolest things I did in law school, and everyone should do this even if they aren't writing a book or a paper.

You've been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who is coming to save you? I'm as fine as this man's hair and well-groomed owl.

yep! unpaywalled:

I swear to god if they mess with Derek Guy I’m gonna become Che Guevara

Someone else has probably done this already, but whatever. I wanna contribute something and here it is:

This is not an “enemy of my enemy is my friend” situation. This is an “enemy of my enemy killed 300,000 children and threw the Nazi salute repeatedly.”
