Attachments:

• Image of a red-bellied woodpecker perched on a large, bark-less tree branch with out of focus branches and a grey, overcast sky in the background. The woodpecker is facing left with one eye visible. Red-bellied woodpeckers have off-white belly, chest, and neck feathers with a slight red blush on the lower belly, black and white back, wing, and tail feathers with a checkerboard pattern on the wings, a red-cap that extends from the beak to the shoulders, an off-white cheek with an orange patch below the dark eyes, black beaks, and dark grey legs and feet that are designed to grasp the sides of trees.

One cool thing about having a kiddo around is that you can put together a playlist to listen to while you're making them breakfast, and they get super stoked because they've never heard any of these songs before.

It's worth sharing this because 1) everyone should know JD Vance's whole intended playbook is shitty racist lies.

But 2) this is the archetypal abuser response: call out the person calling *you* out, as though *their* *response* to your lie is what matters. Make the offense everyone's taking about *their ordinary response*, not your original offense that prompted it in the first place.

Classic DARVO.

We’re at War With Iran - Ken Klippenstein:

"One can stand on the parapet with binoculars searching for Iranian tanks to come rolling across the desert to signal what everyone is insisting is something more to come. But reality should have set in today. Only the American people seem unaware because of secrecy and because of the lockstep narrative of the mainstream media, which is not to accept this fundamental reality. " https://www.kenklippenstein.com/p/were-at-war-with-iran

The fact that he doesn't like Taylor Lorenz makes me like her more.

Attachments:

• Well-regarded by whom? Lorenz is a hack—a self-proclaimed social media expert done in by her own "private" Instagram post describing President Joe Biden as a "war criminal" that she subsequently lied about having posted. She didn't "exit" the Post. She was obviously and rightfully fired.
