Another unequivocal claim by Biden that the question of war has been decided.
I've been a huge skeptic, and I very much hope he's wrong, but he's putting generational credibility on the line in a way that worries even me. If he's right, stonewalling Minsk II is hard to justify. twitter.com/laurenegambino…

Harassing people over small political donations does not pass the public interest test. Did a ghoulish corporation or nefarious billionaire funnel $1,000,000 to protestors? Sure, expose them.
But chasing down grandma over her pocket money is a reprehensible violation of privacy. twitter.com/esaagar/status…

This possibility is frankly so terrible to me it is difficult to even contemplate. I still remember red scars on the streets of Sarajevo, the "Sarajevska ruža" remembering those killed by mortar fire.
Kyiv is bigger than Sarajevo. Than Grozny. Than Fallujah.
Just unthinkable. twitter.com/KevinRothrock/…

Politics now ask you to define yourself by who you hate, rather than what you love.

Governments claiming the authority to *freeze people's bank accounts* because they want to crush a protest movement is tyrannical and obscene. If you would oppose China or Russia doing it, you must oppose Canada doing it.
Very glad @cancivlib exists.

I don't think I've ever seen anything like that.

"A free press can be good or bad, but without freedom, the press will never be anything but bad."
As someone called worse things by bigger names, lawsuits against newspapers over hurt feelings—and even false claims—are not the answer. Won't fix people, but will harm rights. twitter.com/greg_price11/s…

I'm not suspended from the ceiling above a barrel of acid by a rope that burns a little faster every time I tweet, you concern-trolling ghouls. I've just lost any confidence I had that sharing my thinking on this particular topic continues to be useful, because I called it wrong.

Someone may have put a lot on the line to warn you of this. It doesn't matter who they are or why they did it: their role is complete.
What matters now is how you respond.

Neither a law nor a court can truly justify the revocation of a human right; the most fundamental of our freedoms are inabrogable. The repression of such an essential liberty may be effective, for a time, but it cannot be legitimate.

Children have their own gravity—one that attracts time.

With two kids under two, it feels like I have forgotten the meaning of a "free hour." Even when they're asleep, you're planning or shopping or reading for them.
I don't know how parents ever get anything done.
921
There were two phases of my life: when I was unable to get up in the morning, and when I had kids.

every day this site has people just absolutely volcanic over something that will never matter

"trump's sophisticated seven-part plan."
oh sure, let's bet the future of an entire party on a historically unpopular ruling class's ability to persuade everyone that the same guy who can't maintain his focus through even seven sentences was secretly a mastermind. this is wise.

Gold is just bitcoin that can't be sent over the internet.
