Can’t wait for you to see it.
So, so proud of our team.

Yeah, it's fascism. The only question is, like ivy, how far have the tendrils taken root, and is the brickwork damaged to the point the building is compromised, or can we just tear the shit off at the next election?
Yikes — This new Orwellian Pentagon propaganda video touting “transparency” as they fill the *press corps* with loyalists like Loomer & Gaetz plays like a horror film.
We are very far off the cliff, folks. 🇺🇸

Lovely way to brush off a gruesome, sadistic murder as a small faux pas while simultaneously blaming the victim.
Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."

One of the right wing's top cultural initiatives was trying to destroy the idea that assholery deserves shame and we'll have to reverse that. "I'm just expressing an opinion I'm entitled to." Ok but you're an asshole. "I'm simply doing a business practice that technically isn't illegal." Ok. Asshole

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video.
I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children.
But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

my favorite robert redford story is that mike nichols considered him for dustin hoffman's part in THE GRADUATE. during their conversation nichols asked redford something like, "have you ever struck out with a girl?" and redford's response was basically, "i don't understand the question"

Remember this. The Nazis were defeated by geologists and car mechanics and school teachers and milkmen. Ordinary people from all over the world who risked their own lives to put the fascists in the ground where they belong.
the real glory of world war two was that it involved a warrior cult being ground down and beaten to a pulp by people who would rather have been doing something else.

Jeff Bezos is not fit to own the Washington Post.
Pretty incredible that Jeff Bezos' Amazon announced a "$5 billion-plus" partnership w/ a Saudi AI co launched by Mohammed Bin Salman and sent CEO Andy Jassy to meet with him less than 7 years after MBS murdered Jamal Khashoggi, a columnist for Bezos' Washington Post.

Read the fantastic "The Curse of Bigness" by @superwuster.bsky.social . Informative review of the evolution of legal/political thinking on antitrust efforts in the U.S. Changed the way I look at the issue. Illuminates structural/cultural failures contributing IMO partly to our current federal chaos.

In college, I slept through courses, daydreamed, skipped lectures, tore through books at the last minute so I could write a passable essay, and often stupidly viewed my education as something that was interfering with my life. Squandering a chance to learn is not new. I'm glad AI wasn't around then.
