A famous Klingon once said, "We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be." Cruelty in jest is still cruelty. Bigotry as irony is still bigotry. Do not pretend to be that which you do not want to be.

I just generally think the antidote to dooming and feelings of helplessness is getting involved in any way. It can be as a poll worker, doing ICE watch, running for local office, helping with mutual aid, whatever.

You can get so much accomplished in your town or city if you just get involved.
anyway i know how many of you hate that i’m so vocal about this and think it makes me a naive shitlib or whatever. but again, i think the best thing you could do for yourself here is to get involved in election administration where you live.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

the order needs to be tailored to the illegal stuff. And courts are loathe to presume the entire government action (oh my stars!) is lawless. It's a dilemma for the courts that are stuck in the Old Times.

100%. But it's so hard for courts to deal with this kind of scope. The court of appeals struck down the TRO that said "stop doing unconstitutional stuff" because it was just an order to follow the law. But similarly, it would be hard for the court to say "shut down the entire operation" because /
The only response here is a motion to enjoin the whole operation

If the government's position is "I'm sorry your honor but we don't be the capacity to both respect constitutional rights and conduct the operation as it is currently being conducted" the answer is "then you must stop the operation"

Yes. The best you can hope for at the moment is to strengthen the ability of states to fight deployment; to give them power to stop new detention facilities; to slow hiring, and shrink the recruiting pool. The Democrat demands accomplish that. You are not going to get abolition now.
Nothing in this list stops what's happening or even meaningfully slows it down, and that's before the part where they're already signaling the masks, for example, could be conditionally ok. I've also yet to see an evidence-based argument for how body cams will help.

So, hey…reporters…make sure when you write about what this administration *says* they’re going to do that you note that they have a massive history of LYING.

It will make 2026 a little easier if y’all just start establishing the fact that they are not to be trusted. Ever.
I’m on the scene at Franklin and 1st. A convoy of about a couple dozen ICE/HSI agents broke the entryway into an apartment building at 6am. No warrant presented. Less than 24 hours ago, Tom Homan announced the end of large convoys in Minnesota… Bullshit.

In Minneapolis, people are literally singing resistance before marching to the hotels where ICE agents are staying—inviting them to defect and join us in solidarity. It’s an action rooted in compassion, courage, and collective humanity. Transforming fear into shared power.

It’s getting increasingly clear that the endgame for these people is the sexual enslavement of women.
they're trying to be coy about salivating over the prospect of raping women, they'll contest that but if pushed to explain, that's exactly what they would describe. forced pregnancy of any kind, by a man or by the state, is gender-based violence

this is simultaneously much more than i expected and not nearly enough. IF the Reps abided by this it would make things LESS awful but i just don't see why we'd expect them to abide by any agreement they make once they have cash in hand

We believe there are few investigations that deserve more sunlight and public scrutiny than this one, in which two masked agents fired 10 shots at Alex Pretti as he lay on the ground after being pepper-sprayed.

this is a thing people forget because they tend to think of their favorite actors as static in terms of skill. everyone on TNG and DS9, including Patrick Stewart, is a WORSE actor in episode one than they were by episode 60. it's good to force actors to inhabit a role longer! They get better at it.

The only issue with the show is that it's never going to get enough episodes to get good. The characters are very weak, which is something you have time to iron out with 25 episodes a season filming every year. The writers and actors aren't gonna have time to get better.
Starfleet Academy so far doing 90% of the good Star Trek things. Why did people dislike it? That is strange. It’s class Star Trek in every way. But I just started it. I have to watch the whole thing fast because I will have no streaming.
