“The law will never make men free; it is men who have got to make the law free. They are the lovers of law and order who observe the law when the government breaks it.“ -Henry David Thoreau, Slavery in Massachusetts I paint small things and fix computers.

Probably works for Massachusetts and the Irish, but also probably the Protestant English simultaneously, even if you’re Irish.

My previous cat died right in front of me. Right where I’m sitting typing this in fact. Vet figured it was a heart attack or pulmonary embolism or something. Just gone like that. So I know the feeling all too well, and I’m so sorry for you and your family.

I’m not sure why this is the time for visionary. This is low hanging fruit. They needed to get angry about what these chucklefucks are doing to the American people. And recently they seem to be getting moreso.

Gorsuch finally speaks, and oh yeah, he's against Trump. Alito also sounded skeptical, which is surprising to me. Regardless, there will plainly be a lopsided majority to strike down the tariffs.

The government better start working on its Plan B...

Dick Cheney died on the day a Muslim was elected mayor of NYC and Lieutenant Governor of the Old Dominion. Burn in hell Dick, you piece of shit. I'm going to have a celebratory drink.

Screenshot of a tweet by former NYC mayor Bill de Blasio. It's a photo of de Blasio wearing a bright-blue "Hot Girls for Zohran" T-shirt and smiling while looking into the sun next to a brick wall with a "vote here" sign taped to it. The main text of the tweet reads: One of the happiest votes I ever cast! What a beautiful day for NYC! sun emoji. at zohran k mamdani at hot girls four zohran.

On the one hand this sentence makes no sense, probably intentionally. Trying to figure out what he means by this is doing his work for him, even he even actually means to do anything.

On the other hand, this sentiment is one more step further down the road of federal dissolution.

NEW: Footage of a US citizen in Chicago being rammed then dragged from her car on her way to work.

Abducted, with no warrant, her family couldn’t find her for hours.

She was later released with NO CHARGE.

A DHS statement said she “violently resisted arrest, injuring two officers”.

You decide…

No one in Oregon is a threat to Trump’s ambition to continuing to be president past the term he is legally allowed. Pritzker is. Attack your strongest opponent first and hardest is his only political maneuver. Now he has a secret police to supplement it.

Then when they started making new CDS squared salami out of the CDS salami, and then, iirc, cubed, when it all hit it was a rubber band ball that rolled off the hill instead of a web holding everything up. If they don’t do all that again, then there’s a chance that it does the job it was meant to.

Don’t know what if anything is different about how credit rating agencies and CDS issuers work now compared to pre-2008, but the real problem wasn’t who was mixed in with a MBS, but the real issue was rating agencies and CDS viewing any MBS as safe as the safest bit of it, rather than doing the math

Under Trump, the draconian future of homelessness policy is coming into focus: mass internment. Utah is building a 16-acre site to detain up to 1,300 homeless people inside locked "accountability centers." This is profoundly alarming.

The possibility space where this extremely precarious, unstable situation finds a stable equilibrium in a way that isn’t catastrophic for the entire US shrinks visibly by the day.
