  • This is what really hit me reading Mark Twain’s autobiography when he started describing the atrocities by the US government against Native Americans.

    His autobiography was dictated to a stenographer which he then edited later. This way it has the feeling of a simple discussion with Twain, and because of this the discussion of tragedy as a current event, just as you and I would chat over a coffee, really hits home how little we’ve changed.






  • Column 2 status would absolutely make sense if we weren’t talking about an administration that slapped tariffs on penguins.

    Russia still has billions in trade with the US, far more than any of the other three in column 2 and far more than the vast majority of trade partners assigned tariffs. The tariffs were assigned with a simple trade deficit calculation that Russia was spared. If anything, that this administration is so eager to “get even” that it slaps tariffs on penguins while missing one of its largest trade deficits says more about their lack of attention to detail than anything else.
