Jurassic Park Rebirth is a marketing premise (no one wants to watch a movie with the same old dinosaurs again!) made into a story premise (no one wants to go to the dinosaur park to see the same old dinosaurs again!)

The difference in time between now and I can has cheezburger Is the same between I can has Cheezburger and the Berlin Wall falling

I just blurted out “I hate my senators” waiting for the train.

Ah, it’s that time of the year in SF that NOAA clearly has no idea how to predict. They should just say “it’ll be 90 degrees until it isn’t and then it’ll be winter”

I hope everyone in attendance laughed and laughed and laughed at these total losers

If you know me, you've probably heard my screed on why we need the Western States Alliance to protect the rights of citizens where the federal government is failing miserably. Little did I know the (real) West Coast Health Alliance would be the first important step in that direction

I love a good push notification failure

Hey CALIFORNIA -- We just posted a special state-level call for YOU. Have at it 😎 **Pro tip: Enter a full address or 9-digit zip code to ensure you get the right contacts 👍 5calls.org/state/califo...

My toddler has entered the insane dictator paranoid of poison phase, everything I feed her is handed back to me “Here! You eat first!”

Thanks weather app, for keeping me updated on the tsunami watch since we dismantled the weather service

JUST IN: ICE agents in San Francisco just now drove through protesters, used pepper spray, & brandished rifles at those who had gathered to try to stop an immigration arrest. A woman, holding onto the hood of an ICE SUV, was thrown off. youtu.be/GQ_YGzfaQLM

“Tariffs next month” is the new “it’s infrastructure week”

Man, fuck the nyt

is there really no OSINT repo for facist ICE agent doxing yet? where are these decentralized/uncensorable web people when you really need them?

Where is all the reporting on the other signal chats that were archived on the hacked (by multiple people!) signal-with-archiving service? Are we still pretending that having some sort of ethical code helps vs government nazis?

In today's @5calls.org newsletter, I channel @pbump.com as we take a look at an interesting map of the most popular call in each state - a map that looks very familiar! buttondown.com/5calls/archi...

So... Schumer no confidence vote next?

Apple Music users with kids: are my recommendations permanently ruined? Is there a quarantine setting I don’t know about?

Another round of media coverage of @5calls.org begins www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

Never been more convinced that the way forward is via a Western States Alliance, a pact to govern by democratic principles and provide the things the federal government will fail to do in the states that we still control

It is hard to imagine a bigger gift to China than what Elon Musk is doing to USAID right now. It’s the backbone of all democracy aid in the entire world. The other funder remaining now? China.

Just a reminder for how we all got here

who needs Pagerduty when you have @syntheticmethod.bsky.social to wake you up when the site is down (she also makes coffee)

Trump's federal funding freeze is blatantly unconstitutional, only Congress has the power to spend federal dollars. Tell your reps to support a resolution opposing the freeze now:

I have been known to joke about unreadable domain and wifi network names but there is literally a congressional contact software provider named dotgov[.]com

unregretted user-seconds? My dude, every second I have to look at any tweet is a regret

How long after removing an account from Bluesky until you stop receiving push notifications for that account? I can only tell you the answer is longer than a week

This drone crisis is the perfect metaphor for the current political climate: a third of all people are convinced it’s a vast conspiracy to deprive them of *something*, a third are have actually seen a plane in the sky before, and the last third are like what is “drone?”

I’ve never been particularly convinced of the whole “covid messes with your memory” argument but after reading all these articles about people explaining their vote for trump, shit… that’s gotta be true

nyt out here adding insult to injury today

Hi there. Remember us? We never really left - the public made more than a million calls to Congress through 5 Calls last year - but we know it's been a while for some of you. It's not the greatest of circumstances, but welcome back.

From @roybahat.bsky.social, a call for startups that are supporting, or working on, worker organizing. also.roybahat.com/request-for-...

He has simultaneously promised an end to the administrative state and told RFK Jr he could ban gummy candy. That’s … going to be tough.

Lot of people out there this morning who couldn’t imagine one outcome in a 50/50 election now pretending they can predict what’ll happen in 4 or 10 years. Yeah, it’s gonna be hard work for a while but try not to give up on it quite so quickly

This is why they ddos’d the wayback machine, the elites are trying to keep this information from you
