If your bluesky is white, you segregate yourself.

If you look up Hadeel’s family name you just find article after article about their martyrdom- she lost over 120 members of her extended family.

"This promise of an AI future, is really just a collective anxiety that wealthy people have about how well they're gonna be able to control us in the future."

Incredible words.
Listen to all of it!

If Afghanistan and Iraq are any indication, soon we're going to start hearing from Very Serious People that we should keep our opposition to ourselves, that we should support our country and president during wartime.

Fuck that. War with Venezuela is a moral atrocity. I'll be silent when I'm dead.

One of the biggest moments of my career:
USCIS canceled my client’s naturalization oath ceremony. We filed a lawsuit, went to trial, and the judge swore him in right there in the courtroom!

yeah kinda think we’re in for a long deteriorating mad king season. nobody’s going to pull the 25A trigger for Vance

best scenario from here is soft coup

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Lina. Lina was forced to flee South at the beginning of the war with her sons Hasan, 10 and Mahmoud, 4, leaving her husband. She found out she was pregnant with Liza she gave birth alone and when she returned her home was destroyed.

In South Minneapolis, Minnesota, nearly two dozen neighbors confronted and surrounded ICE goons after rapid-response alerts were issued. The goons were questioning an East African man when the situation escalated, and they eventually left the area without making any arrests.

this combined with the recognition that poverty wages are actually many times higher than previously thought is confirming a lot of my personal doomerism

damn i really gotta see this

Sean Duffy on relaxing sexual assault prosecution standards: "This rule will actually allow you to bring back the 1970s type guy. Maybe a little scraggly mustache, a cigarette permanently dangling from his lip, and some unresolved aggression towards women."

ADP shows private hiring has essentially ground to a halt overall in recent months led by job losses among small firms

the contradictions have seeped into the creative mind 😱

this was when i first read in depth and came to understand what's behind the publicly accepted narrative

"I feel bad for you" meme with a boom operator saying "We're having sweetgreen for lunch"

having a hobby outside of politics has made my brain better tbqh. like. it doesnt make me care less. it makes me able to care instead of being numb.

Disobey your nazi orders if you think you're so fucking brave

i love how they made his death "for our sins" some kind of unknowable mystery that catholics solemnly contemplate, when it's just that he was martyred by the powerful for speaking truth to power, every day in america is a chance to do just that but let's contemplate with some incense instead

Victorian political cartoon titled Capital and Labor, several men strain to hold up a platform atop which a large rich old man sleeps on a throne

The floor, is stronk.

It's not a foolproof plan but every political debate from now on should be a Normal Guy competition. Ask them to describe grocery shopping in detail. Talk about what it's like to have a friend

“Democratic leader’s proposed alternative to MAGA comes from a venture capitalist’s book title” is so on the nose it sounds made up. These people have anti-juice.

It’s been years since they’ve had a normal conversation with a normal person. They can’t remember what it’s like. They’re so cooked.

word, it took me years after my "mounting bolshevism" phase started to figure out who had any interest in what i was reading

most of my reading is a free text reader app reading me a free pdf while i do chores, people just want things to be harder than they are

i figured out the ways i was bad at reading by talking to people about the things i read, whether txting friends or an actual book club. do people not talk to others about what they read?

My favorite thing is when the person lies and the news guy is like “but is that true?” and the person goes yep and the news guy goes “alright thanks for joining us”

I think about this a lot.
