Once those are invalidated, and the court knows those are, in actual fact, completely illegal, it's going to be fascinating to see what they were stupid enough to do in front of their clerks.

The novel teasing thing is grimly hilarious in particular because, as @eruditorumpress.com noted in her piece, teasing novels that were never released or seemingly even begun was pretty much all he did for the last decade and a half of his pre-accusation career bsky.app/profile/ashe...

I don’t think I can say this forcefully enough: hundreds of thousands of Haitians will lose status tomorrow with racist ending of their TPS & are spending today refreshing their feeds for a court order that could literally save thier lives.

This is nothing short of psychosocial torture.

I fully believe Trump will smash the authoritarianism button harder and harder as he feels the midterms wipe out approaching, I'm less sure that doing so will prevent or mitigate said wipe out

Some of it is just that a lot of these little brats are completely unemployable in the first place, but they're all looking to stay in the right wing hothouse anyway. It's going to be fascinating when all that falls apart and the bill for their behavior comes due.

It's been kind of fascinating to watch the buffer that protects these guys slowly erode and how they've all failed to handle it.

I dealt with this shit when I was living in the South, just this entire subset of dolts who grew up in the cul-de-sac, all went to one of like five schools based on Daddy's favorite football team, married at 22 and went to work at her dad's firm or his dad's firm.

I don't think anyone actually knows who Sullivan is, that's sort of his super power. Which is probably not the super power you want right now.

I’m not going to stake out an overly optimistic position, but having been involved in Alaska politics for a couple decades at this point it feels very different than it has in the past, including 2008 when we beat Stevens.

He is getting more and more angry that he can't seem to get anywhere with affecting elections and it's getting pretty clear that he's starting to fixate on it.

One area where @edflynnforboston.bsky.social and I agree: Concern about impacts of remote work on downtown.

My Q's:

1) Co's profit by reducing leased space, an incentive that may offset any loss in productivity. True?

2) Who loses when a % of commercial space is taxed as residential space?

Some in South Minneapolis have created what they call β€œfilter blockades” on Cedar Ave. A handout says the roundabout like blockade is meant to bring neighbors together to strategize against ICE while also identifying traffic coming into the area.

I got a frantic text message from my sister-in-law at like 8pm on Sunday that we should all stream Michelle Obama's movie on Netflix to get it to have better numbres than Melania's. It was so cute and out of touch and I just kept rewatching old sitcoms.

I mean it's kind of bizarre considering they just followed a very high profile loss and judge's order in the Liam case?

Like agency compliance even in fully compliant agencies with court orders is often kind of fraught.

Neil Gaiman attempting to sidle back into public after being buried in a pile of nauseatingly well-documented sexual abuse allegations is gross. Doing so by denying everything, linking to some guy's substack post, and limply teasing a new novel is so gross it's kind of funny

Target says they can’t keep ICE out of their stores because they’re open to the public.

After we were *kicked out of Target yesterday*, this NYPD officer helpfully explained to me that Target can keep out:
⁃ shoplifters
⁃ protesters

⁃ ICE
⁃ anybody, actually

TBH it should be a much bigger story than it is that a movie directed by a Twitch streamer based on a video game where you are welded into a submarine you must navigate through a literal ocean of blood nearly beat Sam Raimi at the box office.

imo its generally unclear and seems fairly unlikely that "competent trump loyalists" is a thing that actually exists.

Has Chuck Schumer weighed in yet on protest OpSec? I feel like that would really give the discourse On Here a nice boost.

A lot of β€œwhy isn’t there X in rural areas?” is just population density or poverty

In theory, no, movie theaters can just show whatever they want. But in reality, distributors usually will pay for things like advertising that's more likely to put butts in seats. Movies without a distributor will often just rent the theater directly (called "four-walling") for showings.

I keep seeing the β€œreminder don’t use Adobe here are the alternatives” image going around and folks, the problem is not just that Adobe sucks, the problem is they’re blocking legal access to decades of art files utilized by individuals and entire teams

ICYMI, Gai*man is slinking out of the shadows and posting again, trying to scuttle his way back into the public's good graces.

Please take care of yourselves, believe women, believe survivors, and fuck that guy.

Or it's simply that the people who actually buy all their food from a delivery service are extreme outliers in the first place, but this is a discussion that lets people perform morality through financial means.

I was wrong, and I apologize.

It more then tripled Melania’s windfall. My bad.

Last year, I was constantly worried about my TN work visa being revoked. I could also be rejected by a CBP officer any time I re-entered the US, so my immigration lawyer advised no travel. After I was laid off, I had only 60 days to find a new job or I had to physically leave the US by December 31.
