Oh yeahhhhhhh.
Didn’t the FBi pull a lot of personnel from anti terrorism to put them on deportations?

Actually the whole security establishment pivoted

Uhhh question: Where has @mehdirhasan.bsky.social been? He on vacation, or is something up?

Cuz it's been over a week, I think, since he posted.

Seems fair.
The shooting of two Guardsmen in DC is a tragedy.

It is also EXACTLY what Trump wanted and was waiting for.

No POTUS has ever so premeditated getting our troops shot at for the sake a personal ambition as brutal as it is demagogic, dictatorial, and illegal.

This is on (a) the shooter, (b) Trump.

Way too many people opining about shooter identities before information is released.

As in...If you're doing it, you're making a mistake.

Learn from this for next time.

(And yes I know there's an ID now. I'm saying for future reference)

"If time's a song, I won't wait for its reprise
I am done wishing farewells and goodbyes
I won't let this place overshadow my birthright
I won't wait another eon"

- Celldweller, "Eon," off the album "Wish Upon A Blackstar."

I'm gonna say it till I'm blue in the face:

Brad Lander for US Senate in 2028.

AOC for President in 2028.

That's part of our path out of this mess.

Alllmost broke this rule in Physics Incarnate, but the song I wrote instead was pretty neat and "told" more about the story anyway. Worked out way better.

"Black Sheep" by Metric is still badass though.
FYI: don't quote song lyrics in your books. This is not fan fiction where you can get away with that. Quoting someone else's intellectual property will get you sued.

Well-said.
Also, this is neither petty nor unprofessional.

It really is okay to take a victory lap. When we don’t take them, those who are only paying casual attention are unaware of the victory, so in their minds, there was no victory, therefore, the opposition, the media, etc are ineffective.
Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

Same story everywhere you look...except in Nassau County, the fiefdom of anti-Mamdani New York Democratic Party chair Jay Jacobs, whose hand-picked "Moderate Party" Dem slate was slaughtered during a blue wave everywhere else in the country. Seems worth noting by people other than a TV critic

Labour are putting in place all of the tools and eliminating fundamental protections that will enable Reform to come in 2029 and govern in an overtly fascist and totalitarian way. No jury trials, digital ID, elimination of the ECHR etc. It feels intentional.

This will only end badly.

No bailouts. The US should extort these companies when the crash happens so they get minimal compensation in return for nationalizing the entire panopticon industry and then destroying it once harvested for socially useful parts. It won’t happen but it should
when its definitely not a hostage situation

I mean she's just making it nuclear-radiation clear, now, isn't she?

This is insanity and Republicans (including her) must be held accountable presuming sanity ever returns.

Look, I try realllly hard not to shit on things, these days. I've been an ass about that in the past, for sure.

But One Punch Man? Season 3? It's really bad. In like every way I can think of an #anime being bad.

And, like, I'd be more merciful if JC Staff didn't have a body count at this point.

I'm not a huge fan of Mark Kelly as a senator (& I'm not Arizonan so my feelings about him as a senator are largely moot), but attacking him in any terms regarding his patriotism, military experience/knowledge, or commitment to service seems ridiculously poorly thought out, to put it mildly.

This would be...Nice.
Democratic politicians and activists are quietly lobbying to upend the way the party picks its presidential nominee by urging the use of ranked-choice voting.
Scoop: Democrats eye ranked-choice voting for 2028 primaries
It's a tool that drew national attention when it propelled New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani to a decisive primary win.

Gonna go live with @zorusil.bsky.social and eClaire with some #Fortnite! As I mentioned in my channel update on Youtube, I'm gonna try just streaming to Twitch and seeing if that solves issues. Will definitely record for Youtube though.

Public notice for the pending FTO designation of Cartel de los Soles.

Document is slated to be published on 24 November at which time it will take effect.

Next week we will likely see a considerable ramp in military activity, with strikes possible on land targets in Venezuela.
