Little bit of both.

And once they're backed into a belief silo created by conspiratorial beliefs, their fellow travelers onboard them to other adjacent conspiracies which trend towards the ur-conspiracies of transphobia, antivax beliefs, and hate.

Multiple times this year I’ve had coffee with fellow immigrants who grew up in corrupt third world countries and the shared sentiment has been that Americans don’t understand how bad things are going to get.

A video arguing that women shouldn’t be able to vote was just shared by Trump’s Secretary of Defense, the guy in charge of our whole military.

And Democratic Party leaders still can’t stand up to this administration?! Our rights are on the line and all our party leaders offer us is silence.

This clip of Mark Maron talking about the comedies who helped usher in all this nonsense is pretty cathartic.

Sometimes I think about the guy on Twitter who bet me two hundred bucks that we wouldn't have a "historically significant measles outbreak" this year and "it was just liberals panicking."

(If you are that guy and want to pay up, I can get you my venmo.)

institutions are weak. people are strong.

Getting a lot of spam calls that are just empty lines while I say hello three or four times and I'm starting to think that they're attempting to harvest vocal fingerprints to scam our relatives

Yeah I'm aware of this, but I have to answer some of these for work.

‘Horrific’: report reveals abuse of pregnant women and children at US Ice facilities Report from senator Jon Ossoff’s office found 510 credible reports of human rights abuses since Trump’s inauguration

A Senate investigation has so far found 510 human rights abuses in ICE detention centers since Jan 20, including deaths, physical & sexual abuse, inadequate medical care, overcrowding & unsanitary conditions, inadequate food & water, extreme temperatures, denial of legal access, & child separation

Thomas did you see the Christian Nationalism doc on Amazon?

We screened it locally for an event and it kinda made me want to die. PragerU in schools seems like the ultimate dream of the Paul Weyrich dorks.

honestly Alex Winter is so cool it's a little astonishing

Once again, I can make this really easy for establishment Democrats:

Trans Americans are Americans.

They deserve the same rights as everyone else.

That's it. That's all you need to say.

One part bots and one part the internet has always been like this but most of these guys got bullied off of Twitter and wanted to start afresh on Bluesky after it was mentioned in the news

Yeah, you're right. Also helps to point out the very weird money buying land in Montana, Idaho, and Alaska right now. Lotta rich dudes buying what they think will be "climate proof" land.

I keep telling people that the current "border crisis" is just right-wing strategists laying the groundwork to exclude climate refugees in the very near future.

It is explicitly eugenicist. I think that's what the wall has always been about.

Nothing— and I mean nothing— about this decision is more than the bare desire to harm.

it's so good

“Climate change will manifest as a series of disasters viewed through phones with footage that gets closer and closer to where you live until you're the one filming it.”

You may not burn up in a fire but take a look at air quality trends in N America over the last 10 yrs & see how far away this is.

is this a good time to remind people that RFK also hung out with Epstein

I do like the mental image of someone consistently pointing out the whitest men and women imaginable and going "what about that one?"

elizabeth nooooo

hey uhhhh does anyone know a print company that makes stickers that they'd recommend

asking for no particular reason

Not necessarily. Legionnaires tends to be isolated in small clusters and is typically linked to one or two water reservoirs that are a cluster of infection. It doesn't usually spread between people.

This is most likely a result of infected water tower or large AC unit somewhere.
