This is a break-glass emergency. It's bad enough they gave two billion of our tax dollars to pay off insurrectionists and white supremacist pedophiles, but now they're also exempting Trump from audits as part of the fake settlement.

Good god what a way to start the Conference Finals lmao

Logging back on from the beginning of my weeklong hiking vacation to see that two fascist freaks decided to shoot up people like me. If you are one of the people who have even once indulged in anti Arab and anti Muslim sentiment, on here, off here, anywhere, you're part of the problem. Fuck you.

The “we don’t have the votes” excuse for refusing to force a vote on impeachment is conceding the point and saying even the opposition party doesn’t think this high crime merits removal from office. It’s not being politically astute and pragmatic, it’s self-defeating in its cowardice.

If I were the opposition party I'd be saying anyone involved in creating this corrupt scheme will be prosecuted but also anyone accepting payments from it will at minimum be required to pay back the full sum with interest

Musk v Altman JUDGE: The jury has sent a question and the answer is no, the death penalty is not "available for both sides" please return to the jury room and limit your consideration to civil damages.

If you see this, I implore you to post a pic from your device without context.

I want to know the name of the judge who presided over this. I want that judge’s name and email address public. I want people to be able to ask that judge what the fuck was wrong with him or her. /1

Professor: oh hey, you're back early Robo-sub: Antartica's haunted Professor: what Robo-sub, loading torpedoes and returning to the water: Anartica's haunted

It’s not like there are actual realities behind the simulacra, that would be monstrous

yeah basically the whole initial rollout and all of the apocalyptic claims were aimed at convincing executives that they should shove AI into every aspect of their workflows and honestly that part worked pretty well, a lot of execs do that but the general public backlash was very predictable

in spite of every administrative roadblock this is going to keep happening, and they can't stop it

in a way, isn’t causing men to crash out before she’s even done anything just proof that Lupita is perfect for Helen of Troy

Ultramarines, Blood Angels, Dark Angels, Space Wolves, Black Templars, Deathwatch

there is an abstract principled journalism that i think is literally worth dying for and is baked into the heart of our constitution, and then, there’s whatever this idiotic dog and pony show is

a ten million dollar torture clinic Paxton really is uniquely evil even among the murderer’s row of assholes that is the Texas GOP

"we're willing to trade kidnapped children for POWs" is a completely insane admission of guilt

This is when I started to feel my spirit leave my body.

This has been such a persistent issue with the @nytimes.com in particular, and criticized so often, that you really can't see it as an oversight anymore, but as a deliberate policy of contempt towards other media outlets.

Here, some of my recent work.

Some recent 40K projects

Chat, look at who's president right now. You are allowed to complain about prices and blame it on him. Not only is it fine, it is your patriotic duty

incredibly depressing that the reimposition of jim crow districts across the entire south is getting nothing more than generic horse race coverage

I would give fucking anything for Republicans to spend this much time telling other Republicans that voting is stupid

Fuckin *wild* thing to try and spin a "Dems bad" outrage cycle out of, my guy.

Chuck has been pretty full throated and direct on this for a while now and as ever I appreciate him as just a good fuckin dude.

The relevant portion of the Jason Collins discussion

since the judiciary seems bound and determined to avoid sanctions on any of these folks, whoever gets put in charge of DOJ next needs to throw them out on their asses without so much as a reference appalling behavior that doesn’t even belong in the same universe as the word “ethics”

I frequently criticize “politics as fandom” but there’s no better example than people willing to risk the house majority needed to stop fascism because they think that people on death’s door “deserve” a seat

Everything in between is also significant, but, here is McElroy's ending:

whomst could hath predicted

I understand why the wonkier among us despise the very concept of a wealth tax but lads I have to be real here this is one of those policies that may have to be implemented simply to signal virtue.

happy Lakers Elimination Day, everyone

And though the application of law thus seems mechanical--remand should lead to the exact same conclusion because Callais does nothing to disturb the initial conclusion's reasoning--*that* decision will come too late under Purcell and will thus be unenforceable as to the 2026 midterms. Right?

I just don't think democracy is formally compatible with an apex court that views itself as unanswerable to its coordinate branches and which exercises its docket control so to hand down unreasoned judgments that reshape congressional elections in favor, consistently, of one party over the other.

one place you won't find silence? vichy twitter, where the zionist deadenders are going absolutely insane at NYT daring to public this (as 'Opinion')

all this sweaty calvinball horseshit feels like hysterical panic from the court

Folks as a Gandhian pacifist I am not into the death penalty but some sort of punishment was definitely in order, channeling Thaddeus Stevens here!

The thing I don't get: why would it matter if Israel had some hand in nucleating the protests? Everyday Iranians went out into the streets when they saw the opportunity and were killed en masse by the IRI. I have a hard time imagining the mindset of someone who would see this as exculpatory

Finally working on my Guard, digging how the scheme has come together.

Jesus fuckin christ

I can't stop thinking about this video since I saw it last night

Man, LeBron still being able to do *this* is just an incredible thing to experience. They're gonna get crushed but that doesn't make it less insane.

An entire administration of pedophile protectors

as per melissa's thread, it is really important to understand that a major goal of this administration is the resegregation of key institutions of american society

Felt a more niche answer more appropriately fit the prompt: Shattered Union rocks. I still go through hoops to make that thing work on a regular basis. I've burned almost as many hours into it as I did into X-Com, a game i fixated on for a decade. (But also Halo 4 absolutely fucks)

what’s extra fun about this is that everyone forgets Zendaya’s performance of 24K Magic right before it and it was stunning! would easily have won most episodes of the show and then Tom came out and did… that
