The compartmentalization of the bubbles is so complete that if you listen to democrats they are certain Kamala has it in the bag, and if you listen to republicans they are certain Trump has it.

It is. But the brief exchange with .@tonydokoupil .@CBSMornings .@CBSNews is arguably even more powerful. Friendly exposition at a high intellectual level is a rare joy on a mainstream show. But vigorous pushback & opposition without mendacity or ad hominems is ESSENTIAL. Our world is in desperate need of passionate disagreements over important matters that reveal differences in perspectives and shed light on voiceless peoples & underreported realities without hate or venom. #TaNehisiCoates #TonyDokoupil
Ta-Nehisi Coates’ new book, “The Message,” is a trio of interconnected essays that examine how the stories people tell — or avoid telling — can shape and even distort reality: “I am most concerned always with those that don’t have a voice.” cbsn.ws/4gJxe2g

If Dick Cheney really wants to protect this republic, he should take Trump hunting.

Since Wayne Shorter's death in 2023 at 89, it’s felt like he’s still around. That’s because his music always felt so otherworldly and progressive, as if it were beamed in from outer space or somewhere deep into the future. nytimes.com/2024/07/03/arts/…

She's suddenly out of order when she matches energy. Enforcing who gets treated as an authority & who must accept disrespect. In case anyone was still confused about how white people experience privilege.

The Zen way of teaching teaches one to see that you cannot be in complete control of your whole life situation. You cannot, in other words, fundamentally possess yourself.

When you're lacking motivation, remind yourself: discipline now, freedom later. The labor will pass, and the rewards will last.
