Go for it, Taylor!

I’m from Louisiana, and like half the towns/cities in the state qualify.

This thread highlights a point I have been making for many years: the logic of authoritarianism and the logic of domestic abuse are exactly the same. It is only a difference of scale.

“No one man can terrorize a whole nation, unless we are all his accomplices.” -Edward R. Murrow

I spent the week at the police surveillance convention and let me tell you my biggest observation: The name of the game now is consolidating as much information as humanely possible from surveillance devices, the internet, other governmental data, and literally a million other places. 🧵

The new @proton.me mail app is significantly better than the old one. They did some excellent work improving it.

this is amazing

Quote: “As long as there is one upright man, as long as there is one compassionate woman, the contagion may spread and the scene is not desolate. Hope is the thing that is left to us, in a bad time. I shall get up Sunday morning and wind the clock, as a contribution to order and steadfastness. Sailors have an expression about the weather: they say, the weather is a great bluffer. I guess the same is true of our human society — things can look dark, then a break shows in the clouds, and all is changed, sometimes rather suddenly. It is quite obvious that the human race has made a queer mess of life on this planet. But as a people we probably harbor seeds of goodness that have lain for a long time waiting to sprout when the conditions are right. Man’s curiosity, his relentlessness, his inventiveness, his ingenuity have led him into deep trouble. We can only hope that these same traits will enable him to claw his way out. Hang on to your hat. Hang on to your hope. And wind the clock, for tomorrow is another day.” E.B. White (1973)

Finally: remember to take care of yourselves. There is a long road ahead, but we’re in this together.

To our trans community:

We know it’s been a long year, and that the news cycle and hateful attacks can take a toll. We feel it too.

You are not alone. You are loved, you are seen, and we will never stop showing up for you.

It might be just me but the iOS 26 keyboard seems like a massive improvement

And I think about all of you, too.

I am enjoying my 30s… because I’m still playing #Morrowind

#MathJoke

Image of a Morrowind character in dark brotherhood armor fighting another dark brotherhood assassin. Four boxes are on the screen showing a map, list of magic, inventory and character stats. The character is level 1, how did this situation even happen. Text says "how do I explain to people that this is peak gameplay".

My heart breaks into 10,000 pieces once again.

I’ve seen the individual screenshots before but never the vertical slice. Very cool! #TES3 #Morrowind

UPDATE: After the government of Florida erased the memorial to the 49 people killed in the Pulse nightclub terrorist attack, some Americans who think we should remember innocent victims of terrorism, rather than try to erase them because they're LGBT, repainted the memorial. Awesome.

STOP THE COUNT #COYS

#TS12!!! 🧡

A government-sanctioned "truth arbiter" will soon arrive at CBS. Their role will be to ensure that journalists do not criticize this Administration or express views that conflict with its agenda.

This is a betrayal—not just of journalistic independence, but of the public trust. 🧵
