I’m feeling like the resources of the English language are getting increasingly inadequate. Words like “pathetic,” “needy,” “narcissistic,” and the like are pale verbal equivalents to whatever the sexual intercourse this is:

Trump: Since 1978 the Kennedy Center honors have been amongst the most prestigious awards. I wanted one, never able to get one. I would have taken it. I waited and waited and waited and I said to hell with it, I'll become chairman. I will give myself an honor. Next year we'll honor trump, okay?— Acyn (@acyn.bsky.social) 2025-08-13T17:05:05.700Z

This is going to sound like a Tom Friedman story, but I was getting my hair cut today, and the barber — a 50ish black man from Brooklyn who has an uncle in the construction trades who was personally ripped off by Trump, which is apparently a very far from exclusive club to be in in that borough — told me that he feels sorry for Trump, because some really terrible things must have happened in his childhood to make him be this way.

And I’m sure that’s true and I just can’t bring myself to feel any sympathy, because we’re all now part of the cycle of abuse.
