Whenever I reread @jayhulmepoet.bsky.social's amazing poem "Jesus at the Gay Bar," it's hard not to imagine Jesus as this 1535 drawing "Christ Carrying the Cross," by the Italian Renaissance artist Giovanni Bazzi , which I'm teaching tomorrow in my Queer History class.

DHS has been doing this for a long time—nearly since its inception. The reality is that much of their “intelligence” is literally just forwarded emails with the subject line line: “FW FW FW FW the daily mail EXPOSES antifa HQ”

🚨 Documents leaked to me reveal a federal watchlist of American protesters suspected of being Antifa - including its supposed leader.
One Department of Homeland Security document says a 29-year-old resident of Portland "is the leader of Antifa":

I'm also not saying that being religious makes you a bigot but the kind of American-style evangelicalism that appeals to a lot of people like Minaj nowadays, mixed with narcissism, really gives an individual a kind of permission structure to be awful without feeling bad about it.

I think the issue with Nicki Minaj is that she was chronically online and consuming tons of negative information about herself, so her coping mechanism was becoming extremely religious, and religious zealots are the types who get drawn into Trump.

A swiftly, decisively crushed MAGA election theft attempt is preferable to a slow burn that ultimately tuckers out after draining all the legitimacy from our system of government.
It's genuinely important the public understands whom their enemies are (the ones trying to steal elections).

I desperately want Blexas to happen and also genuinely believe Republicans will violently contest any presidential election they lose Texas in simply because due to the psychosexual weight of Manly Man Cowboy Everything Bigger In Texas.

This is really specific but damn it's been sad as shit watching Adam Tooze slide from respected economic historian to Twitter-brained talking head at record speed.
Treatler-Stalinism is a real ideology and an actual, tenured crackpot historian (who used to be a quite good historian) is a true believer in it.

Given the volume of posts on moltbook the claim in this article, for which it provides no evidence, that every post and comment is an individual human decision seems certainly false. How much direction humans gave to the agents participating and how much they interven is harder to say.

I fully believe Trump will smash the authoritarianism button harder and harder as he feels the midterms wipe out approaching, I'm less sure that doing so will prevent or mitigate said wipe out

OTOH, we're also seeing a fuckton of *public* outrage over this shit. SCOTUS might genuinely be afraid of the political consequences of unleashing the Gestapo on Springfield. And if they aren't, the humanitarian and *political* catastrophe that results may make them afraid in the future.
Yes, Federal judges are pissed, but it's clear the Supreme Court is going to reverse most of their decisions for bullshit reasons, so I take only momentary comfort. I'm tired of YEARS of lawyers saying "OH HO THEY'RE PISSING OFF THE JUDGE, WATCH OUT" then the judge just writing words.
Judge Reyes’s conclusion: “There is an old adage among lawyers. If you have the facts on your side, pound the facts. If you have the law on your side, pound the law. If you have neither, pound the table. … Having neither and bringing the adage into the 21st century, [Noem] pounds X (f/k/a Twitter).”

I've already had a very probable bot tell me that Neil Gaiman was framed, so I think it's a very real possibility he's already got some bot army for hire via a scummy PR firm.
What're the odds that this isn't just Gaiman trying to astroturf a comeback through a burner or some PR guy he's hired?
Neil Gaiman has returned to the Internet to signal boost a Substack 'investigation' by an independent journalist known as "technopathology" which apparently proves his innocence
the main thing it proves is technopathology needs an editor.

I genuinely have no idea if SCOTUS Republicans are going to pause the TPS cancelation for Haitians or not.
Because while they clearly *love* untrammeled executive power for the most part, doesn't like Haitians, and have already allowed similar shit to hit other nationalities, they're also cowards.

"Leaks" were constant--in quotation marks because the flow of info about deliberations to the public was steady during and after a case and few thought of this as leaking. It was the justices themselves who leaked the info; there were no modern day clerks until the late 19th c. 3/6
