For it is in the consolidation of power that we rule,
it is in superseding justice that we are made untouchable,
and it is in making the world less stable that we are left secure in our tyranny.

where there is despair, resignation;
where there is active opposition, capitulation;
where there is prophetic lament, the suppression of speech.

O divine Being, grant that I may not so much seek
to be trusted as to be feared,
to be understood as to be obeyed,
to be loved as to be immortalized. …

I tried to write an authoritarian version of the Prayer of St Francis:

God, be an instrument of my agenda:
where there is scorn for it, let me cultivate scorn for my opponents;
where there is activity that frustrates my agenda, fear;
where there is ambivalence, a sense of overwhelm …

The next state of the union (not capitalizing based on a complete lack of respect) will need a designated unindicted coconspirator.

JD Vance was like β€œWait, we’re anti-fraud now?” And Pete Hegseth was like β€œWait, war’s my thing.”

Republican reps, including Jeff Crank (CO), may not be principally motivated by voter suppression, but they’re comfortable with it, and unbothered by the sheer negligibility of voter fraud. The SAVE Act strains out fake gnats and swallows un-American camels. I hope the Senate has eyes to see that.

β€œHow surely gravity’s law,
strong as an ocean current,
takes hold of even the strongest thing
and pulls it toward the heart of the world.
Each thing–each stone, blossom, child–
is held in place.
Only we, in our arrogance,
push out beyond what we belong to
for some empty freedom.” (Rilke)
