Do not obey.
Do not obey in advance. Most of the power of authoritarianism is freely given. In times like these, individuals think ahead about what a more repressive government will want, and then offer themselves without being asked. A citizen who adapts in this way is teaching power what it can do. #ONTYRANNY

Pete Hegseth is a war criminal and should be fired immediately.
Screenshot of headline reading: Congressional committees to scrutinize U.S. killing of boat strike survivors. In a rare split with the Trump administration, GOP-led panels in the House and Senate say they want a full accounting in the September military attack.

Closing the airspace over a foreign country is a de facto declaration of war but we’ve pushed so far into “let’s conspicuously underreact so everyone knows we’re savvy people not overreacting to Trump” that his de facto declaration of war is literally not even being reported on the news

“The idea that wreckage from one small boat in a vast ocean is a hazard to marine traffic is patently absurd, and killing survivors is blatantly illegal,” said Rep. Seth Moulton (D-Massachusetts), a Marine Corps veteran and vocal Trump critic who received a classified briefing from Pentagon officials on the strikes in late October with other members of the House Armed Services Committee. “Mark my words: It may take some time, but Americans will be prosecuted for this, either as a war crime or outright murder.”

I’m confused about what happened with the D.C. Guardsmen shooting because all the news outlets are just quoting the Trump administration, a pack of drunk, racist liars whose account cannot be taken seriously.

Does anyone know where I can find unbiased reporting? Do we know if there was a motive?

screenshot of a tumblr post from user “wildmansters” The thing that really boils my potatoes about Al in general is that I have been a creative professional for over a decade now and the devil has ALWAYS been in the details. Big and small, I've had single-person businesses rip me to shreds over how their colors turned out on newsprint, and have worked with huge companies with THICK brand guidelines with every detail of their brand identity laid out and enforced with an iron fist. But I guess all of that stuff doesn't matter anymore? Who gives a fuck if this Al generated baby has six fingers, that mom-and-pop shop is still going to use it. That rug from Temu says Happy Thanksgivirg? Oh well haha it's just a silly funny thing now (nevermind that you never would have given a B-grade item from a craft show the same consideration). I don't actually care that the Al Coca-cola ad has a truck that changes size every scene, but I can't help but think about how, if it had been some poor underpaid artist, they would have been laughed out of the building. I don't really know how to put it in a succint way but it just feels all the more obvious how much more grace and flexibility has always been possible but never offered.

Well, that ramped up quickly. #Thanksgiving
An advert against marijuana that reads: "This Thanksgiving remember the cranberry sauce but forget the Marijuana. Terry was convinced to take a toke of a joint with his friend 'just to relax.' Immediately after, Terry killed his friend who had given him the marijuana in a murderous crazy. Not so safe, is it?"

Happy Thanksgiving, Illinois.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone, from my family to yours. It's worth remembering that it was President Abraham Lincoln - Illinois' own - who issued his 1863 Thanksgiving Proclamation during the darkest days of the Civil War. Lincoln called upon Americans to unite the divided nation through shared gratitude. The relevance of it in these troubling times is not lost on any of us. I take special pride in knowing that it was an Illinoisan, our greatest President, who established this holiday - reminding us that even in times of hardship and uncertainty, there is always room at the table for gratitude, reflection, and hope. God bless you, and may your Thanksgiving be filled with warmth, abundance, and the company of those you hold dear.

i used to respect journalism as a profession and i don’t anymore, but that happened before this gross nonsense.

ask Maggie Haberman about what she covered up to keep exclusive for her book.

ask Jake Tapper about Trump’s mental state.

political journalism is rotten to the core.

I hope that this doesn't just become about "Nuzzi is bad" but fosters a wider recognition that our culture of political journalism that didn't just tolerate her, but promoted and celebrated her even after the allegations were known, is rotten to the core and has been for a long time.

this was bad before, but these are the most troubling and serious allegations you can make about a journalist. if they’re true, i genuinely can’t think of a worse scandal in the history of political journalism. devastating to our industry, to public trust as a whole, and to everyone in its orbit
