White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, who is supposed to guard the gates, instead flung them wide open with a shockingly candid assessment of Trump advisors, internal tensions, and policy. The White House spiraled into crisis mode, but the cat’s out of the bag. My write-up in the comments.

One of the biggest moments of my career:
USCIS canceled my client’s naturalization oath ceremony. We filed a lawsuit, went to trial, and the judge swore him in right there in the courtroom!

Brian Heywood's quest to force invasive, mandatory genital inspections on underage girls in our state has help from a new dark money group.

"Washington Rising" has no contact info on their site, their donation uses an address in Tennessee, and they aren't registered as a political committee in WA.
New shadow money from the right
Plus digging into the underground economy, tracking weed production and the missing roadkill caucus.

Fuck every single one of these assholes. Once again, this is *literally* what the Nazis did.
The House passed legislation today that would charge doctors with a felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison for providing transition-related care to minors.

Rep. Sarah McBride strongly condemned the legislation in rare personal remarks ahead of the vote.

Hot take: The Princess Bride is still a timeless classic that only gets better with every rewatch.
I've learned my new roommate has never seen The Princess Bride.

You better believe I'm fixing that tonight.

one upside of trump insisting on a "presidential address" is it interrupted programming on every major broadcast network. so a whole bunch of normies who only see sanitized versions of

100% honesty: if taking billions of $$$$ was all they did, I'd accept it

Shameless, revolutionary graft but at least we could chalk up it up to "that's the inevitable end state of politics"

It's the millions dead and millions more suffering daily that galls me so much...

Creative solidarity means:

If you're a writer, do not use AI "art" or AI "voiceover"
If you're an artist, do not use AI "writing" or AI "references"
If you're a streamer/actor, do not use AI for backdrops, thumbnails, etc.

Never help AI steal another medium

No excuses, no shortcuts, no surrender.

If you see the words 'irrevocable', 'in perpetuity', 'formats not yet invented', 'net after costs', 'all rights', you're selling every damn thing you could make money from as an author for a one time payment, or in this case, a promise.

Signing this gives the publisher money meant for you forever.

Every writer who generates a slop image for their work is a class traitor.

"I can't afford a visual artist"

So your solution is stabbing artists in the back? Stealing from them?

Furthermore, slop-generated imagery suggests slop-generated writing. That's how you're presenting yourself.
