Personally, I am much more concerned with whether Meals on Wheels recipients will continue to receive their food than I am with what a celebrity is going to be eating at the Super Bowl.

Hi fed friends. A few things to keep in mind:

Keep an eye out for new software on your computers
Assume that your gov devices are being monitored
Assume calls are being recorded and chats reviewed

Ok. Have a great paranoia-free evening!

But seriously. Be smart. Keep calm and carry on. ☕

Don’t write for the critics. Or the haters. Write because you just remembered the deadline you agreed to 11 months ago.

It’s OK to admit that we’re off the map of our experience. The rules & best practices some of us are accustomed to, in certain situations, may no longer apply. There are some questions I lovingly refuse to answer at this time bc I don’t know. We need more humility. Some of our expertise is outdated.

A sort of interesting thing is that on old Twitter you always had the sensation that the politics stuff was kind of floating on top of a superstructure of more normal people but you don’t get that feeling on either Bluesky or X, it’s all super political people all the way down (or so it feels)

As a criminal defense lawyer for over 20 years, I know well how dangerous and all-consuming jails and other forms of police custody are. So I dissent from calling for lawmakers to get themselves arrested. Leaders on our side need to be protected. We don’t want them distracted or traumatized.

I don't know who needs to hear this right now but DO NOT FEDPOST. Yes, it's scary but DO NOT FEDPOST. The 3 letter agencies (that remain) will be swarming this site soon. So, DO NOT FEDPOST.

Trump demanded the FBI give him a list of all the agents who worked on his J6th insurrection or his treasonous theft of classified documents.

They sent him a list of 5,000 agents.

There are only 13,000 FBI agents, total.

More than a third of the Bureau knows he's guilty.

If you needed a clear picture of just how brain dead the MAGAt movement is, they are currently celebrating a billionaire ending their ability to file their taxes directly and for free because it "owns the libs."

These people are a collective mental illness.

to say this louder/clearer:

trust NO tech company whatsoever. assume they will 100% turn over any content to law enforcement. This includes DM's on social platforms (especially Meta, but you should treat Bluesky this way too), which includes messaging members of the media about ANYTHING.
do not put your crimes in writing, even on Signal

As a criminal defense lawyer (but not your attorney!), I am suggesting that people not get arrested under this regime even to prove a point, if it’s avoidable, due to the severe risk of trauma and harm being inflicted in police detention in effectively unreviewable ways. But I hear you.
