Welcome to the resistance! Over 1 million brave souls have answered the call this week. The Empire—Trump’s administration and Musk—may believe its grip is unbreakable, but every day, more join our ranks. We’ve always known—tomorrow, there will be more of us.

The Internet Is Worse Than a Brainwashing Machine A rationale is always just a scroll or a click away.

"Misinformation is powerful, not because it changes minds, but because it allows people to maintain their beliefs in light of growing evidence to the contrary. The internet may function not so much as a brainwashing engine but as a justification machine." www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

April 9, 1829. Sir, I have just found out that my husband has made an engagement with you to join your expedition, through a dream, without consulting me; I must beg to tell you, sir, that he shall not go - I will not let him have his clothes. He must be mad ever to think of leaving a comfortable home, to be frozen in with ice, or torn to pieces with bears; therefor, I am determined he shall not leave Gosport, so I hope you will not expect him. Yours, Sir, &c and so forth, Mary L.

This is the best thing ever written in connection with an Arctic expedition - Mary L of Gosport telling Captain John Ross in 1829 that no, her husband will NOT be joining his crew.

we’ve spent a lot of time trying to figure out How Trump Won and the answer is simply that we live in a country where people think the moon is a government drone

This is why America didn't get national health care back in the days of the Truman Administration, 1945-1953: white racists didn't want black Americans to get it.

Musk post: In most cases, the word “homeless” is a lie. 

It’s usually a propaganda word for violent drug addicts with severe mental illness.

“…Mangione once became bedridden for a week after a basic surfing lesson” while he was in Hawaii before he moved to Japan.

We’ve entered the “white man had reasons to kill” phase of this journey.

Next time you have an idea that seems too crazy, just remember that John Woo once walked into an office and said "I wanna make a movie where Nick Cage plays John Travolta playing Nick Cage, and John Travolta plays Nick Cage playing John Travolta," and someone wrote him a check for 80 million dollars
