Tonight's civil disorder in #Belfast is nothing other than a neo-Nazi racist pogrom against non-whites and immigrants. Video of rioters targeting houses of non-white immigrants. Nazi scum. #NorthernIreland

I love this for her.

Since I do not see the New World Screwworm issue going away any time soon, I’m just gonna make a thread I can pin to my profile. Do you want to know why the screwworms have come back? Check this thread: bsky.app/profile/tkin...

I appreciate that New Yorkers showed reverence for the anthem by booing a wannabe tyrant.

journalism is important, and it is accordingly important that the news is not controlled by billionaires.

Bizarre mushrooms

Here are some nice mushrooms

Cloak and Dagger was the original name for Wing Commander II. (I’m sure Taylor already knows this.)

The idea that this just happened to the Broadview 6 — forcing grand juries to indict by cajoling them in an elevator, vouching to the grand jury, and telling "no" votes to leave if they don't want to indict — is nuts. It's probably happening everywhere. And it means the law as we know it is dead.

(screengrabbed @bencollins.bsky.social ⬆️ to fit both posts in one QT) & this point is critical: The process *is* the punishment. Trump's spent his life punishing people for daring to think he owes them anything by bringing frivolous lawsuits. DOJ knew this was bs, but it still served as punishment.

So what does this mean? Say you're the president and wanted to indict an enemy but pesky grand juries simply won't do it. The president can just insist prosecutors spam grand juries until they return an indictment. If you skip grand juries like this, the president can personally indict anyone.

Recap of the Broadview 6 grand jury: — WEEK 1: Government tries to indict protesters for impeding a police car. Jurors ask why the cop isn't being charged for driving into them instead. No bill. — WEEK 2: Government presents same exact argument. Jurors aren't having it. [continued in next skeet]

Projection from a death cultist.

This seems like an argument for not releasing the count until it's done, which can take a while. I'm sure that would trigger an entirely different set of complaints.

ICE will no longer publicly report the deaths of immigrants recently released from detention. ICE frames this as "common sense," when in fact, it's an effort to obscure the true number of people who die as a result of being detained—especially now as in-custody deaths surge.

I’m told they were saying “boo-urns.”

Incredibly, three weeks today EVERYBODY'S PERFECT (my first new novel since 2020) will be released! Gorgeous cover by Caroline Jamhour

crazy that if you harbor self-hate you will think that everyone hates you, but there's only one man in the US who can visit new york city and get boo'd from every corner of madison square garden and general city

Every so often, conservative Mormons and conservative Catholics suddenly see in stark relief that conservative evangelicals don't view them as Christian. www.jezebel.com/mike-lee-sen...

How interesting that Meta called @wired.com "dishonest" and then (quietly) removed the face-recognition system it had previously (also quietly) integrated into an app downloaded onto 50 million phones. Dishonest!

Making me bend my “minimize crying at work” policy.

this Trump FCC "foreign router ban" is basically just unworkable extortion slop that's just going to cause headaches and drive up costs for everyone under the pretense of improving national security, but 90% of the press coverage tries really hard to pretend any of it makes sense

ah, I was wondering why the NYT was having a panic attack yesterday lol

Just need everyone to know that the Belgium men's soccer team has new jerseys based on the art of Rene Magritte and this is the official photo shoot

as many of you will remember, I dug into detailed local reporting about a different ICE victim every day of Lent to meditate on their stories, and when you read them all lined up some clear patterns start to emerge. the starkest to me was that every employee of GEO Group should be sent to The Hague

“As the annual Pride parade weaved its way through Durham… the rainbow flags were almost matched in number by trade union banners, as miners, postal workers, and train drivers swelled the parade’s ranks in solidarity, making it the biggest in Durham Pride’s history.” Solidarity is our strength. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
