twitter *is* real life to the modern right and it is the source of much of our misfortune.

you can do nasty things with a properly sharpened trowel, for the record

there are a couple of infant burial grounds found in the former roman empire - not it in the vicinity of brothels, for the record - that some conspiratorial fraud found out about and started a viral meme

oh No you DON'T go messing with archaeology you fucking clown

it's cool that so many people in positions of power and influence were so negatively polarized by "wokeness" that they convinced themselves that there was an actual debate about who wanted to erase history and the "wokes" were on the wrong side bsky.app/profile/arch...

You're not being hunted by us. You're being hunted by THE ENTIRE CITY OF MINNEAPOLIS

I don't think we should have a government kidnapping agency

Stage 1: “It’s unsinkable.”
Stage 2: “Ukraine doesn’t have the means to sink it.”
Stage 3: “It’s sinking.”
Stage 4: “It sank, but it was a storm.”
Stage 5: “Ukraine should pay us for sinking it.”

This is one of those things that in another administration couldve been a months long scandal if the media wanted it to be. call it AgentGate. What did Bondi know and when did she know it? Weeks of opinion pieces etc etc.

I will vote for whichever candidate promises abolition and trials

Colorado Republicans having convinced themselves that they live in a red state feels much different than the delusions of CA or NY Republicans. I think that a lot of it is because Cory Gardner won the senate election in 2014.

Jasmine Crockett is a clear political talent, one of the best public communicators in the House, and would be a great House Judiciary Committee Chair or even House Majority Leader. I don't think she could win a statewide race in Texas, and her campaign has not given me confidence otherwise.

Something I have previously encountered with particularly clownish authoritarian governments elsewhere.

we’re gonna have to double the capacity of bar discipline committees in reconstruction ii

I think the subtext on a lot of the Insurrection Act stuff is that ICE recruitment is not going particularly well, they need bodies, and they keep getting no-sirred by the courts on National Guard

we'll give the upper peninsula to canada as reparations

Der Spiegel headline: Der ICE-Kommandant im Nazi-Look Martialisch und effektheischend, so tritt ICE-Kommandant Gregory Bovino gern auf.

I'm reasonably confident we will be able to get more than one 2028 contender here after another two years of this shit.
