the most ashamed i have felt as an American was recognizing all my Iraqi friends had a specific facial expression when talking about dead loved ones that meant, "they were killed by your military but i don't want to say that because we're buds and i don't want you to feel bad"
No, this is the most ashamed you've felt as an American *so far*.

I was recently leaked a document that was written by and for think tank and DNC affiliated policy wonks and circulated in private chats. It describes in unsparing terms the threat Curtis Yarvin, Neoreactionary tech founders, and Elon Musk pose to democracy.

Pritzker: "We're talking about the death of a constitutional republic. That's what happened in Germany in 1933, 1934. And we're seeing today that we've got an administration in Washington that's ignoring court orders."

Now that musk is saying he’s doing the DOGE stuff “because the globalists have plotted a Great Replacement in which they use government handouts to buy votes from illegal immigrants and urban blacks” maybe we don’t have to act like this is about deficits or cost cutting anymore

if you purchase and read The Sapling Cage all of your enemies will destroy themselves and large quantities of candy will find their way into your home, i make these legally binding promises on behalf of Margaret Killjoy
Everyone is posting pictures of their copies of The Sapling Cage by @margaret.bsky.social and now I have to go buy one because I'm jealous (and she's an incredible author). Peer pressure works, y'all.

One of the best articles I’ve read about the age we are entering.

And it touches on something that we need to discuss more: in authoritarianism it is *logical* to cede power to those in power.

Or rather, it is seemingly logical. Ultimately, even after you give in, they’ll come for you.

Some things you can do. No one can do all these things, but most people can do at least one:

Feed people. There's work for you at Food Not Bombs or whatever you got going on where are.
Join a local cop watch, ICE watch, or rapid response group.
Who's being targeted in your area? Have their back.

it really does warm my heart every time we North Americans act like real neighbors to each other. seeing Mexico and Canada rush in to help California is beautiful. speaks to the best in us. don't forget that in the days to come.
Canadian MP Charlie Angus on California: We have fire crews in the danger zones. The Canadian military is now on full alert to help. That’s what we do—we help our neighbors in times of crisis.

The fact that Trump isn’t there.. is shocking but this is what criminal grifters do.

Outraged by the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, a wilderness survival trainer spent years undercover climbing the ranks of right-wing militias.

He didn’t tell police or the FBI. He didn’t tell family or friends. The one person he told was ProPublica reporter @josh-kaplan.bsky.social.
