put my 1980s Minolta light meter on an over-engineered retractable leash and the neo Tokyo dad vibes are brutal #BelieveInFilm

When I say ‘profoundly alienating’, I mean I straight-up left as soon as I was able with no intention of returning

The violent hypernationalism, xenophobia, and bigotry were relentless. We became a society obsessed with revenge and bluntly intolerant of dissent. And we stayed like that for a decade

We got a short break for the 2010s up until 2016, whatever we want to call the last four years, and now in a lot of ways it feels like we’re right back where we started

I finished reading Serj Tankian’s memoir last month. Well worth picking up for a view into what was a profoundly alienating and frightening time in US politics after 9/11 and the illegal invasion of Iraq

what’s the good way to cross-post from here to twitter and bsky?

twitter is broken af and bsky is just a smug-comfy tech adjacent echo chamber; do not have the time or patience to deal with all three platforms

hey remember when we didn’t elect W Bush in 2000 but then we did in 2004?

this is even more embarrassing – can’t even blame the GWoT hypernationalist violent fugue state

also these fuckmuppets LOVE copping ideas from private sector, so pack the advisory committees for executive agencies and use that power for good

one of the few calming thoughts I have today is that nonconsecutive terms mean mango mussolini gets to go through transition all over again

many who served 45 have either refused to serve 47 or been indicted for federal crimes. it may not be as inept and chaotic as 2017-18, but a movement hostile to governance as a concept is inherently limited in their efficacy when they do try to govern

When hysterically anxious US election coverage spills over into RNZ and ABC you know we’re in the dark timeline

(I’ve no predictions here except an observation that the likelihood of further political violence is extraordinary. Which is to say greater than the generational average of 0, and equally likely regardless of the election result.)

probably the synaesthesia talking, but there’s something so comfy about analysis workflows that let your visual cortex take over

give my brain field value drilldown + category colourisation and it is happy as a clam
