Being a #humanist is like driving a rear-wheel drive through the present, into the future.
The power comes from the back-end, in #history.

Just got a text message for survey that is pushing a very specific message about data centers.
This is how wildly wrong ideas become injected in the bloodstream of otherwise normal people.
They send out cops with arrest warrants for misdemeanors? Is that a thing now?
The Spanish word negocio means #business. It comes from a Latin word that has a really interesting history. The Latin word negotium was made from two smaller word parts:
• nec means “not”
• ōtium means “free time” or “relaxation”
So when you put them together, negotium literally meant “not free time.” It described what people did when they weren’t relaxing—the work, the duties, the jobs, and all the business stuff that kept them busy.

Their ideal state is 850.
The •literal• dark ages.
Medieval times.
This guy gets it.

The president is fighting a war against reality, and everyone who serves at his pleasure is a foot soldier.
Bravery and cowardice are two ends of a spectrum, and fear is part of both. The brave are not fearless. The brave overcome their fears. Cowards never do.

I knew this capitulation would be embarrassing.
They all are.
They will all be humiliating.
Senators are normalizing dropping f-bombs on the floor of Congress now?
How do you figure it out, when they are all in the same pattern?
Genuinely curious.
The people who most need to read this will never see it.

Poison oak?
It looks like poison oak.
If you know anything about 1775 and #American #history, wanna be god-kings will indebten their countries to fight wars.
It’s a thing.
