An nescis, mi fili, quantilla prudentia mundus regatur?

Gonna lay down a marker here: if they do in fact rule for Trump here, it will be properly considered Dred Scott II, and will in an important sense mark the end of the Union

The Citizenship Clause is the linchpin of the entire Second Republic Constitution. You nullify that, the entire thing crumbles in an instant

I thought that by feeding the rats, the rats would be sated, depart, and not impose upon my hospitality again

i've always kinda known, since the Biden admin at least, that the press has contempt for us. but this "oOoooOooH iS iT ActUAlLy TRumP'S siGnAtUrE???" schtick is the first time that i feel like my intelligence has been personally insulted

Yes

Good things happen when you put up a fight. Ms Carroll has displayed more grit than Columbia University and a half dozen law firms.

Search LibGen, the Pirated-Books Database That Meta Used to Train AI Millions of books and scientific papers are captured in the collection’s current iteration.

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars.

OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

Despite justified cynicism with politicians, when you have a genuinely progressive - though far from perfect - government, it is possible for things to get better.

reporting back to my 2015 self that washington dc is under military occupation because the satanist pedophile kid named Big Balls donald trump put in charge of social security got beat up by a 14-year-old girl

Never forget that we can do good things, too

Right wing politics is organized around political flopping, more and more people are saying it

this is the first time a major Democratic elected has actually told his supporters what they can do in the face of this as far as I can tell

(Postscript: a great thing about the power of disqualification under 14th Am. §3 is its extension of banishment from "any office … under *any State*" (emphasis added).)

I know, I know, but: The president of the US saying, literally, "we're going in" in reference to sending the military to an American city for no reason beyond terrorizing the local population should be the most immediately impeachable shit imaginable

Happy Labor Day, Kentucky. As you spend time with your family, remember the true meaning of today: to recognize the hardworking labor unions who helped build our country and ensure workers everywhere are delivered the security and fairness they deserve. Thank you to our unions.

Just a teeny tiny slice of despair pie. As a treat

Tired, sad, feeling like a failure

It's probably more common than either of us realize, particularly in Asia: Christian populations are often minority currents in anti-imperial (and later nation-building) streams.

The creole republics are not okay, but we're all not okay in pretty similar ways and because we're trying to be better in pretty similar ways!

Been thinking about this. Every generation of my family I know of was born in a different place ruled by an entirely different type of person - Singamangaraja XI, Wilhelmina, George V, Sukarno, George Bush.

But in every generation, the Gospel has sustained them.

The Almighty shall do as he wills; in earthly eyes, it appears he has turned away his face from the American nation. There is no health in us.

All the same, the vast land we dwell upon is his and it is good, as are the multitude of peoples that he, in his wisdom, plants here.

Lord, have mercy.

And there was a not-zero chance he'd have joined Jackie Speier and Leo Ryan.

Both of his parents were State - his dad was a South Asia specialist and one of America's experts on Afghanistan!
