Here's the antichristian deal inside this devil: Controlling WHO PEOPLE FEAR is the game he's playing, trying to turn the people against Greta T to prop up sociopaths & fools to run over the general public with a surveillancetech steamroller He knows HIS SYSTEMS are the embodiment of an antichrist

Along with the Antifa nonsense, the goal here is to reclassify any dissent as dangerous. Which is not something elected officials in a democracy do.

Also not a way to signal loyalty or respect for soldiers.... or anyone who serves in any role, public or private

If they don't want to do their jobs, tell them YOU'RE FIRED

Time to reframe the shutdown as DEADBEAT REPUBLICANS DON'T SHOW UP TO WORK When you tell other people to go to work but you're not going to pay them, you're cosplaying as slaveowners, not gov officials EVERY SENATOR, CONGRESSMAN & ADMIN in the US: Do your damn job, go back to work yourself

I know I keep telling everyone to follow my friend/coworker, @wjm-air.bsky.social, and here's why: He knows what he's talking about when it comes to the airlines, especially during this shutdown. Here's his appearance on CNN last night. Watch it all the way through: youtu.be/UZ5uCD9Lab0?...

"Snipers with guns loaded with pepper balls, paintballs, and rubber bullets are stationed on the roof of the Broadview ICE facility with their weapons trained on the press and civilians. Federal agents have tackled and slammed people to the ground..." #Pinks www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Weirdly enough, I think this works. No one is more insecure than a new ICE agent. They want to be the blonde guy in DHS’s AI Nazi posting so badly. Instead, they’ll be guarding indistinguishable suburban warehouse #16361 while inflated frogs and dinosaurs thrust in their face all day every day.

"Black people are tired. Not metaphorically tired—actually tired. The kind of tired that turns every group chat into a mix of gallows humor and emotional triage." I write about white ignorance and how exhausting it is to hear white ppl insist "this isn't who we are, when it's ALWAYS who we've been.

Today I am imagining a kinder and more loving world.

I have access to Sora, and I am extremely thankful to the very lovely person who gave it to me and I’ll be honest - I don’t think any product I’ve ever used has more immediately skeeved me out as quickly or as deeply. Perhaps I’ll get over it, but first impressions - deeply queasy feeling.

Haven't cancelled Paramount+ yet? What are you waiting for? This is atrocious @cbsnews.com you have no soul left in that shell of a former TV network

What the fuck do you mean I got a longer prison sentence than Diddy

My husband was detained by ICE today Juan Muñoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away I have had zero contact or updates since #SOS @duckworth.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov

I spoke to parents who are letting their young kids play with generative AI and tried to sort through some of the questions they have about it. "I don’t know what this is doing to their brains," one dad told me. Meanwhile, Sam Altman says, "Kids love ChatGPT on voicemode."

Feds cancelling a whole raft of manufacturing & innovation projects in Washington state, because WA is blue & the federal government has declared open war on half the country.

A new KFF study reports: 24 million Americans will see their health care premiums under the Affordable Care Act DOUBLE. Further, 15 million people will be thrown off their health care entirely.   Unacceptable. We can’t subject millions of Americans to this unnecessary suffering.

This is the same Flock whose nation-wide data ICE keeps finding ways to access.

Department of Education employees furloughed this week discovered their email accounts had been manipulated while they were out of office to include partisan talking points that blamed a government shutdown on Democrats. www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

My 20+ years of military service grandfather used to say the Commissary and PX were the only reasons to serve in the military; he shopped at these stores until he died as they had the best deals in the US. Removing them removes a key reason to stay in the service. Privatizing them is a sham grift

I can't emphasize enough that the BX/PX/Commissary are massive selling points for military service (Things are cheaper than civie stores AND no tax), and Trump seems determined to have the military he needs for his fascist nonsense also hate him with the intensity of a thousand suns lol.

The President turning the military against Americans is a bigger story than the shutdown and media outlets should treat it accordingly.

(sidenote: famously missing person Maura Murray left West Point in 2002 for reasons that remain unknown because she’s missing; recently it was revealed that a fingerprint in her abandoned vehicle belonged to a fellow WP cadet who has had a number of girlfriends disappear or die suddenly)

This passage nearly broke me.

Quite a headline/photo juxtaposition on the NYT home page rn

Spent the last decade reading conservative blogs use the word "Orwellian" more than they used the word "the" and now they're literally just saying "War is Peace" out loud in front of everybody.
