"[SCOTUS] has a long history of disregarding if not openly disdaining the rights of people accused of crimes whose cases appear on the merits docket ... Over the summer, the Court had other things to attend toβ€”namely, granting the administration's every wish. Now it's getting back to basics."

TL; DR
In the next 5 business days you should be able to go to Link's page on blacksky.community and see his posts and he'll be able to post but people using the bsky mobile apps won't see it.
After that we'll get Blacksky-only posts up.
After that we can talk about purging bsky mod tools

Alright, let’s recommend some books about games. This will be a thread I add stuff to as I think of it.

Kurt Kalata writes about all kinds of games but if you’ve known his work as long as I have, he’s Mr. Castlevania. I really liked this one.

Unpopular opinion:

Kat Abughazaleh is Palestinian. And as much as this isn't the statement I'd have given in her place, I'm a white Jew. That means I'm coming from a place of privilege she does not have.

And I'm uncomfortable with the number of people who are white or Jewish like me telling Kat,

A great way to turn the temp down here as @jay.bsky.team @pfrazee.com and @aaron.bsky.team want would be to stop communicating site policies and practices with individual users or on their timelines and hire a comms person who is a professional communicator to do all the front facing interaction.

The idea of a U.S. president, all on his own, levying taxes and appropriating revenue would have been entirely alien to the framers.

Canceling energy projects like this, including wind farms, is an immense waste of money.

Additionally, of course, it takes the US out of the technology competition.

Lose-lose.

Robin Williams’ Daughter Tells Fans to β€˜Stop Sending Me AI Videos of Dad’: It’s β€˜Gross’ and β€˜Not What He’d Want’ Zelda Williams tells fans not to send her AI recreations of father Robin Williams, calling them "gross."

People are so weird to public figures by proxy, like Zelda Williams and Bindi Irwin, just compulsively reminding them of their famous dead dad constantly.

I used to be the guy on Twitter reminding people that contractors like me do not get back pay. β€œAnd then also contractors experience permanent economic harm because they don’t get back pay.” Thanks to OMB Circular A-76 far more of the federal workforce is contractors than you know.

GOP busted using South American riot pics to justify Oregon troops: 'We're bad memers' The Oregon Republican Party is facing backlash after it shared a social media post about a planned military deployment in Portland using a fabricated image composed of photographs from South America.T...

The image they shared showed riot police and a crowd with flares and red smoke, designed to support Trump's claim that Portland's protests were out of control, but was actually a digital composite of two unrelated photographs from different South American countries.
