yes! Specifically, it leaves us vulnerable to the strategy devised by fascist Carl Schmitt: find the edges, gaps, and voids in a society where the rule of law doesn’t run and “us” becomes “them,” then *push them inwards*, until these places of exception become the norm and the rule of law is dead. 🧵
this conception of what constitutes a nation is inherently toxic and necessarily leaves the door open for the growth and development of the border fascism we now find ourselves suffering through
Trump's re-election campaign is going to be running favorable quotes from ... [checks notes] ... Senator Bernie Sanders.

You know how there was that trend that was like men are always thinking about the roman empire?

I'm always thinking about the Columbian Exchange.

again, if you are hearing about an empathetic, soulful, new-tone trump pivot calming things down in Minnesota, the people who are telling you this are trying to trap your mind inside a false, alternate reality. please consider why exactly they are doing this.
Trump just reposted a tweet calling Alex Pretti a "domestic terrorist"

Our country is going through a mass effort at ethnic cleansing, and we need to get into the practice of saying that out loud.

recently learned about “dek bass”, a sound system culture in rural West Bengal, using cassette decks and homemade systems, and it’s remarkable because 1) the music and equipment are sick and 2) the DJ always looks like he’s being briefed on a national security issue

Is it about time that someone told @wiltshiremuseum.bsky.social that their "Tourmaline stone axe" is actually made of cheese?

Last year, sometime around the first No Kings protests, I read a series of posts by someone that said, in essence: “this will end after surprisingly few protestors are shot in some American city—but it is vital that you believe it almost certainly won’t be yours.” And I’ve thinking about that a lot.

sometimes i'll check the accounts reposting my little critter monk drawings and they'll just be sandwiched between massive walls of porn and i feel like the chillout table at an orgy handing out bottled water and orange slices.

Holy fucking shit. I have never seen a legal document like this.
You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step.

Doug spent most of his introduction speech to the Department of the Interior vapidly glazing the concept of generative AI, so I’m glad to know he’s finally created the anthropomorphic coal waifu of his dreams
The Trump administration today announced a new government-backed fossil fuel industry mascot.

Meet Coalie the lump of coal!

If we're talking about heroes of AIDS activism, Act Up comes first. But I wonder how many people know about the genuine heroism of a middle-aged white woman named Elizabeth Taylor. I hope it's a lot. Friends, like Frank Sinatra & Michael Jackson, refused to help.

Inside Elizabeth Taylor’s Lonely Fight for AIDS Awareness
Frank Sinatra, Michael Jackson, and other stars refused to help, even as Taylor’s gay friends like Rock Hudson died.

photo: a close up of two forearms/hands pointed at each other against a background of cars and people on the streets outside their homes in Minneapolis. one hand points accusingly while the other, covered in camo and black gloves, aims at them a can of pepper spray with the pin pulled out

Wow.

Anecdotally, this kind of obvious “what we are doing is hella illegal and we don’t trust anyone” move is distressingly common everywhere in the government these days.

speaking purely for myself, if any Virginia-based court likened me to Joe Morrissey I would voluntarily go into exile
@kenwhite.bsky.social am I correct that going into detail about how the court destroyed "a notorious criminal defense attorney" then adding "[your] employment with the Dept of Justice offers [you] no safe haven from the ethical rules of this Court" is judge-speak for "I will fucking stab you" ?
