@amalia12@mastodon.social Nice! Also, related insight from Lao Tzu:

The army is a tool for the country to prevent calamity under compulsion of necessity, not something to be shown off or manipulated.

Calmness is the course to take. Victory won by relying on lethal weapons and brute force is not glorious.

Such is the way of executioners, people who can kill without sorrow.

It is impossible for a person like that to realize the ambition of unifying the world.

@wagesj45@mastodon.jordanwages.com Nice, plus fascinating. See how much value she puts on loyalty to the dude? It's cuz she's too inexperienced to realize that when everybody says the most important thing to him is loyalty, they might be wrong. She makes herself the MOST loyal, except, it's only a sub-rule for him. Rule 1 is, he's the boss, and if he decides loyalty isn't as important as his current grift, distraction, or mad scramble to avoid accountability, then Laura is a victim of her own insecurity, like all of us.

@ErickaSimone@mastodon.social I am unfamiliar with the liberal version of this behavior. Is it widespread, preponderant? Silencing victims of behavior one abhors. That's some gymnastics, and I can't fathom it. What is their "why"?

@atrupar@journa.host If Colbert had provided equal time – so close to the start of voting – there would be one less thing to distract from Talarico's message. In this environment, it would have been prudent. As it is, no one need look at merit at all at this point.

@DoomsdaysCW@kolektiva.social Speaking of EAB, there has been an emergence of an EAB-resistant ash, but you have to keep your eyes peeled for live ashes among the dead ones. If you happen to spot one, contact the extension service and they'll know what to do!

@DoomsdaysCW@kolektiva.social I live in a small town in Mass. and our highway dept. decided to carry its own arbor crew, and they are taking down roadside ashes by the hundreds over three years. I had a 105 year old one that went real fast in one year after a few years of struggling. But new shoots are out anyway. It's entered an infinite loop of never reaching maturity. Wow. There's hope if we watch for the rare ones! Act like REAL stewards.

@Npars01@mstdn.social If we put down this maga chaos eventually, it won't have made a scratch against the corporatist plan. The fascists will spin it as, "Thank god those vulgarians and their small-fingered leader are gone. Now let's get down to business! Back to work! Plebs are needed!" And we'll buy it, cuz we desperately need a break from the maga trauma. We're in what folks used to call "a real pickle".

@rooster@beige.party These folk seem to me to be unable to understand that they have idolized an external thing, whether it's father son or holy ghost, but mostly it's the bible, imo. It's a mishmash that anyone can interpret any way they want for any wicked ends. No wonder Jefferson created a red-letter bible.

@cmconseils@mastodon.social Highly recommend "Slatersville: America's First Mill Village", a PBS documentary available on prime. I loved it. Season 3 in 2026. I'm in New England and it's an eye opener. Complicity. Immigration. IP theft. Diaspora. Child labor ... ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

@tristansnell@mstdn.social The theater, cosplay vibe around the entire maga movement might be seen as evidence – imo – that even the narrative of having arisen organically is an illusion. If it is in fact one gigantic gaslighting, then it's a lot flimsier than they'd care for us to know. Their increasing inhumanity betrays their desperation. Because of wicked people like Bannon, our anxiety is appropriate, but I do think clear heads will provide us confidence in answering these alarming displays.

@thetnholler.bsky.social He must be in a tizzy, cuz he hasn't had any time to work up a good spin. How could he. He has made himself a prisoner of his own choices. If not for the fact that he's president, I'd like to look at this as a fascinating object lesson in classical failures in governance, but it requires a much more serious approach than merely academic.

@Nonilex@masto.ai So households bore the brunt of this first year of tariffs, to the tune of $1700, right? So cranking up a blanket 15% will surely straighten that out. He went to the Wharton School, you say? He should ask for his money back. He's too trumpy to see that everything he does has consequences, organic consequences. That's what makes it so dangerous. He pretends his obstacles weren't raised up indirectly by himself, so HIS responses will grow wilder. He has bombs.
