nice

okay one more thing, if the filibuster was so critical to the interest of small states, why is it that it didn't exist until the middle of the 19th century and wasn't actually used with any regularity until well into the 20th?

the OTHER thing is that no filibuster defender has yet to articulate why it is that people who happen to live in low density states not only deserve additional representation but also deserve to exercise a veto *on top of that*

the only time the filibuster has ever been used to protect a particular interest of a set of states is to kill anti-lynching and civil rights legislation. that's it.

A good thread. Also keep in mind Trump is visibly not well, so even if he supposedly installs himself in as King of America (not gonna happen), he's probably going to die soon. Politics isn't over, especially when the Right, which lies A LOT and projects a lot of bluster, says "we won forever".

I don't know if I will finish all of them (takes so much time just for one) but there is the main idea I had in mind, so I can share it so you can visualize.

I will see how it goes in the futur but I really want to try to make the whole gang one day!

For those confused by state of play on SNAP right now: You're not alone
Yesterday, *before* SCOTUS paused order telling Trump admin to send out SNAP $$, a handful of states rushed to issue full SNAP benefits to at least part of their caseload.
This includes CA, OR, WA, MI, and WI—all blue states (🧵)

I don't want to use Win 11

A solution here is that DHS ceases to exist, border patrol and HSI functions get returned to civilization (DOJ), customs gets sent to Treasury, and immigration gets handled by State and/or Labor

I don’t think you get this same cowboy (derogatory) shit when the big boss is a nerdy lawyer or banker

“woke” is when you acknowledge that black people have contributed to the united states

do you remember the post a while back where someone suggested a sitcom where Cuomo and Dershowitz are roommates in new york city and every episode Cuomo loses an election and Dershowitz is refused a pierogi?

what Elon really wants, of course, is a woman who has no choice in the matter

There is so much wrong her (the uncanny face, for one) but what gets me is the vibe of 'this impossible thing, having a woman say she'll love you forever and mean it,' - a thing very many, if not most straight men achieve in ceremonies performed in front of all of their friends and family.

I think it's great that this young man is involved in politics, and I hope we hear more from him in the future!

There is no such thing as ethical generated AI.
There is no such thing as AI 'art.'
AI generated media is theft.
Enthusiasm for AI is weird and stupid and yes you should feel bad if you've used it for anything.
Give up on it, move on and do something worth time and effort.

Back Day! Definitely getting stronger and going up in what I can lift! Was a good solid workout. 💪🏼 💕 Every little bit counts!

I haven’t been shopping at Target anyway but if the employees started popping up to talk to me when I pass, I would stop.

I meant to mention this friday, but as someone who has heavily encouraged buying physical music, or owning copies of the files since the beginning of streaming. I really have enjoyed seeing people finally begin to break away from the format. (cough spotify cough)

If it was a money laundering operation they'd show more than 900k in revenues. The stock was up and remained up on the entirely reasonable premise that people would buy the shares as an indirect way to bribe Trump but they figured out you can just bribe directly so it's just a bad company

My realtime reaction to seeing that comment. Like I said, accessibility rules!
