I grew up pondering "1984" as I was lucky to read it in high school. I agree with you that the current WH would be absolutely delighted w increased authority over media-- they seem to be litigating just to punish diverging POVs, as you point out. I've a lot to consider w/r/t what you've offered! 🙏

This is huge, thank you. The onus of time and discussion as a remedy to injustice and repression seems like it's potentially corruptible in an era of social media and dwindling attention spans. There's always a new issue to consider; the Infopocalypse is brutal in its velocity.

I absolutely never realized this, thank you. I'm learning a lot about the historical enactment of free speech in the US and afaict I don't agree with it whatsoever. 😕 Protecting outright lies & hate speech by federal law is how we have fallen so ill as nation, imho.

Slotkin: "If Russia is helping to kill US forces, we have crossed a rubicon. We have to take decisive action on that. Instead, we're giving them breaks on oil. They're making a ton of money."

A post from Yoni Appelbaum that reads "Albuquerque turned a wall of its airport bookshop over to its local university press, and goddamn, now I want this in every airport." The post includes a photo of a wall of books with a sign that says University of New Mexico Press.

I usually avoid posting things from the other place but I will make an exception because this is so damn cool. @yappelbaum.bsky.social

The military who has trained the US military for years is actually far more brutal and insane than the US military, sadly. I deplore that my taxes help prop up the nation of Israel 🤬

A president who ruins lives and unalives as he pleases or upon someone else's command is not fit for office.

Indisputable facts. They feel they're entitled to bribes from winning elections, it's fucking infuriating how they've normalized this & they fix as little as possible to keep the bar as low as possible 🤬 We gotta #RiseUp🇺🇸

The Pentagon thinks a lotta things. Claude still can't successfully help me hack Super Nintendo games, so I think the DoW is overreacting (as usual) 😹

Expose Trump for his raping of children. Quit FKN around with this guy. He’s killing as many people he can before he is ultimately gone.

There is no need or reason to keep him in the position of president. It’s ridiculous!

The Epstein files need to become the Epstein trials.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche admits that the DOJ excluded all images showing “death, physical abuse, or injury” from Epstein files release.

Thanks for the grounded review, there's a lot of new info to me here & I appreciate it. I've no background in law yet I'm trying to brainstorm how to frame an appropriate response to the weaponization of 1A rights, wherein free speech is allowing hate speech & propaganda via Big Tech & WH allies

I'm fuious with Garland because he didn't assign a special prosecutor the first day of his term, to deal with the sedition of MoC not endorsing the election of Biden. Also for not appointing Smith or someone else ASAP to deal with the classified docs theft, & ditto the Capitol insurrection

Touché, I hadn't considered the downside of handing them the keys. Sinclair and Paramount are consolidating media very well already, so I'm just at a loss regarding the right way forward on this issue

On a walk around #Conwy yesterday, I spotted something I hadn't noticed before. This magnificent #Gothic railway arch, built in 1840, through the #Medieval walls. It even continues the castellated parapet! Zoom in, and you can see where bits were chipped away as trains got bigger! #photograph #photo

Already seeing Dems blowing off calls for change with "we'll do that after the elections," which never happens.
