Trump Abandons Ukraine, and Wages a War Against the Free Press
The White House's attacks on the media are starting to look remarkably similar to those waged in other countries that have embraced autocratic leaders in recent years.
Trumpβs team is taking a hatchet to the First Amendment, and waging a war against the media and against universities that is starting to look remarkably similar to wars in other countries that have embraced autocratic leaders in recent years.

What Musk's war on federal workers owers to Gamergate, the long-ago troll tantrum
Culture war for the stupid era kicked off with video gamers mad at ladies who have sex
You're plugged in and have heard comparisons of DOGE and Gamergate in passing.
I took a deeper dive β but still a short, breezy read β explaining how it goes much deeper than a comparison.
Gamergate was whiner boot camp. DOGE is the Loser Invasion.

Stay strong, cat ladies! After Trump's first month, personal defiance matters more than ever
MAGA didn't vote for DOGE, but to bring liberals to heel β fight back by not giving them the satisfaction
One month in, and things are bleak. But it does seem personal resistance matters.
MAGA voters didn't want tariffs and DOGE. They wanted "cat ladies" to give up and marry some MAGA douche.
Not giving them the satisfaction isn't just fun. It's strategic.

βAs the serious material implications of Trump's far-right agenda hit his voters in their pocketbooks and doctors' offices, it offers a daily reminder that Republicans didn't get the one thing they wanted, which was to strip us of our joy and our pride.β

RFK 's plan to make America healthy again? Round up people with mental health conditions in camps
Kennedy wants to replace standard psychological care with unpaid labor on "wellness farms"
RFK's not-so-veiled threat to take mental health drugs away is even worse than it looks at first blush.
He wants to replace these medications with labor camps.
This fits with the larger, eugenics-informed Trump/Musk agenda.

Welcome! Not yet quite sure about this place. We'll see!
And not to make you sign up for a bunch of services, but are you by chance on Instagram? They haven't kicked me off there yet! ;)
Hope you're well. Stay strong.

NASA says that, yes, an asteroid buzzing by in 2023 could hit Earth
But β importantly β the chances are still "extremely low," though they have ticked up since the object was first detected.
An asteroid that measures up to 300 feet across could smack into Earth in 2032, and while NASA says the chances of a collision are βextremely low,β the probability has been increasing since the space rock was discovered weeks ago.

I'm here. Hopefully this place is less horrific.
Best of luck to everyone except the fascists. Is that word gonna get me shadowbanned?
Is it safe to post publicly here? Or will the MAGAts make that unbearable?
