The first year of Donald Trump’s second term in office was marked by the rapid implementation of his far-right program.
From ICE to DOGE,
from anti-DEI to anti-antifa,
and from bombing boats to $400 million bribes,
Trump’s regime has turned out even more extreme than feared after he was elected to a second term in November 2024.
His words and actions as president have been covered extensively over the past year,
as have those of a number of internal advise…

In November of 1997, Stephen Sondheim sat in his Manhattan townhouse with Mark Eden Horowitz, a senior music specialist from the Library of Congress, and said something extraordinary. Not extraordinary in the way that most Sondheim quotes are extraordinary, which is to say technically precise and laced with a craftsman's impatience for imprecision.…

It being an astonishingly beautiful afternoon here, instead of sitting indoors hacking #Lisp, I am out in the wood with my pussy cat hauling out timber for the sawmill.
It's a hard life.
#TheJoyOfCrofting (unironically, for once)

Hitching up a log for hauling. The log, which is already cut and lying in a tangle of other timber, is attached to the steel winch cable with a webbing strop. Horrible, my silver grey cat, lies in the sun waiting to assist.
View from the tractor. The cable stretches away into the wood to a turning block, and from there to the log, which is just being pulled into the picture from the right. The floor of the wood is green and grassy; the whole scene is bathed in sunlight.
The log has been dragged right into the middle of the picture, where it has a clear line to the tractor, and the turning block has been removed.
The Little Tractor That Can parked at the edge of the wood, with the log drawn up close behind it.

Of course it's gonna be privileged kids doing more activism! It's the fact they use their privilege, “pass the mic”, and fight for a world where their circumstances aren't a privilege but a right, that's what matters.
When conservatives point out the privilege of their political rivals, it's never to actually criticize a hierarchical society, but rather an expression of the wish that their opponents had as little of a voice as the groups they marginalize.

mekkaokereke@hachyderm.io - Students of US history understand what Lincoln knew: One reason you can't have slavery in some parts of the country and not in others, is because slaves run to the free parts.
But many of those same students don't realize that you can't block women's reproductive rights in some parts of the country and let it be legal in others. People travel to California. This frustrates the racists.
The racists are coming for women's rights everywhere. Nationwide. And they will use racism to accomplish it.

There’s definitely a hopeful feeling in having room to worry about Space Camp fundraising right now, instead of, say, ICE staging at the local Target parking lot yet again (with Target’s tacit blessing, damn them). It’s been quiet in the city these last few days. Fingers crossed.
Hopeful, but also melancholy: even if ICE does in fact draw down to pre-Dec levels, our “after” is not really going to come for a long time — and when it does, it will feel more like a scar than a sunrise.

His head and chest and what shows of his legs are dark brown, his side and back are a lighter brown, maybe a dark tan. I count 6, maybe 7 points on his antlers, which means he’s quite old, for an elk.

I've decided to open the #DualShock and try cleaning it up.
Took me about an hour to find the right tools and disassemble it, getting to the analog stick potentiometers. Used compressed air (read: lungs) to clean them up. Found a bit of cat hair. Took me about half an hour to figure out how to reassemble it properly, with my back aching already. After reassembly, it turned out that side triggers randomly… well, trigger.
Disassembled it again. Started reassembling while making sure that the mainboard is tightly in place. After putting the battery back in, noticed that I didn't connect the touchpad ribbon. Disassembled again, reassembled. Miraculously, it works.
The analog stick causes no trouble so far, so maybe it won't need replacement for a while still. After all, I'm not using it much.

I’ll raise a quiet glass to Robert Mueller here. In the public mind, he was first the messianic savior of democracy and then an emblem of inadequacy and institutional failure — and both those visions did him a disservice.
He tried to do the right thing in a principled way. His effort failed, and we’ve paid dearly for that failure. The failure was his, but also all of ours to share: for every one of his choices that I can second-guess, I can name half a dozen places where others failed to hold up their/our end of the bargain, took the work he handed off and dropped it flat.
He failed, but he tried his damndest — and that’s more than I can say for a lot of folks in the USA over the last 10 years.

If you ever feel like you aren’t achieving as much as you want to, just remember there are people out there who are content with having read just one book in their lives, convinced it means they know everything there is to know about the world.
That said, try not to dwell on the fact that they’re the ones running the world right now or you might feel bad again.
(Sorry, I clearly shouldn’t be writing inspirational posts.)

I am old enough to have played #Doom in my childhood, but young enough not to have played it thorough back then. Since then, I've played through the remake of the first episode on Doom 3 engine, Classic Doom, and played a bit via Doomsday.
Finally, I've started replaying them all. I've decided to go with crispy-doom, which gives makes them quite accurate, with minimal improvements. And I'm playing on gamepad, which turns out just the right choice for an old game with partial autoaim.
So far I've finished Ultimate Doom and #Heretic: Shadow of the Serpent Riders. And I have to say that these games are much better than I remembered.
Doom is just great, though I have to say that the fourth episode (the one added in Ultimate Doom) is a bit uneven; it's still great, but it's start with a very hard first map and then seems to become progressively easier.
But Heretic is even better. And I have to say that all five episodes (two being expansions) are great.

"Trump told right-wing anchor Katie Pavlich on NewsNation, “I don’t think it is [time to invoke it] yet. It might be at some point. **It does make life a lot easier. You don’t go through the court system. It’s just a much easier thing to do.**”
