    &amp;quot;We’ve moved from UFC bouts on the White House lawn, to turning nuked California cities into a crowd pleaser to the ultimate spectacle of a planned public execution. . . A Law &amp;amp; Society Review study of American executions from 1833 to 1937 found, for example, that the audience was itself part of the event, and that it could grant or deny legitimacy to the execution and to capital punishment as a whole.&amp;quot; https://statuskuo.substack.com/p/the-violence-is-the-point?utm_s...

    Read this. It&amp;#39;s awful. Read it anyway. You will learn about the people Trump and Hegseth and Musk are helping by disabling Starlink and Starshield for our Ukrainian allies. https://snyder.substack.com/p/rape-as-a-weapon-of-war?r=g3gok&amp;amp;utm_campaign=post&amp;amp;utm_medium=web

    &amp;quot;It is nice and convenient, I think, when words have meaning. It makes it easier to order a sandwich. When words are more of a suggestion, reality evaporates at your touch, and none of your rights is secure. Good luck getting a sandwich then! . . . Their meaning melts like hot wax, and homeland security becomes an unmarked car slamming into your neighbor.&amp;quot; Brilliant satire by Alexandra Petri.

    &quot;[W]hen policy stalls in times like these, we can still move thoughtfully in our own lives: swapping lawns for native plants, skipping pesticides, feeding birds, keeping cats indoors, buying less. . . . &quot;We are nearly out of time to do so, but not out of choices. The whale asks for more space. The river asks for standing. The tern asks for habitat and room. We can give it.&quot; https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-interactive/2025/nov/16/human-exceptionalism-essay?CMP=Share_Androi...
