A reminder, I'm posting on BlueSky, not here, because this place is a cesspool connected, via its apartheid-adjacent owner, to the far-right government in D.C. I'm keeping my account active so that my Iraq and Bosnia content is available to anyone who might be interested.
Not breaking: I'm not really posting here any more, and spend less time reading the conversations thrown at me by the algorithm. Planning to post mostly at the other place, where I'm @maassp.bsky.social.

“Many of the most popular books and television shows of the 20th century fixated on the idea of individualist prosperity.” @lisquart on JD Vance and America’s toxic obsession with bootstrap narratives.
