Wow ok Dolly hurt but now is my turn to be fucking devastated

Was dealing with a very particular and needy customer most of yesterday and just saw my colleague ended an email to them with “have a good day if it is at all possible” 💀

Sometimes I worry I’m too into something and then people come along expressing genuine grief over a stranger’s haircut and I feel better.

the thing is like public health child literacy civil rights social justice rural poverty once you personally have become rich and successful, those things only matter if you still have the capacity to care deeply about people outside your immediate circle and that is harder than becoming rich

Florida officers found two middle school students, 14 and 13, had guns, bombs, Nazi symbols, and a screed on demographic replacement that incited many mass shooters from El Paso to Buffalo. These shooters are getting younger. My latest @theemancipator.org.  theemancipator.org/2026/08/24/i...
