listen hun if you can't handle the Washington Post editorial board at their the Texas gerrymander "freakout" is "not a threat to democracy" you don't deserve them at their "Virginia plunges America deeper into the gerrymandering abyss"

seeing a ton of criticism about this but the second paragraph of the article notes that it is a publicity stunt and that fewer than 100 will be made. only slightly further down: "there is no cloud connection, no Wi-Fi, and no artificial intelligence features whatsoever"

Just as a very general rule, when a Supreme Court pundit writes the sort of book about the Supreme Court that a sitting Supreme Court justice feels comfortable promoting in public, you should be skeptical of everything else that Supreme Court pundit says about the Supreme Court, forever

After almost twenty years on the platform, EFF is logging off of X. This isn’t a decision we made lightly, but it might be overdue. 🧵 (1/5) www.eff.org/deeplinks/2...

But that's all for this one folks, so thank you for attending Story Time with Shiv, and have a great rest of your evening. /fin

Impossible to disagree with a single word that Ben Rhodes (Obama era NSC official) is saying here:

I hope someone publishes a list of every journalist who attends so that they can be publicly humiliated for the rest of their careers. It’s the only way this disgusting little club will ever learn their lesson

Holy shit

They've spent 47 years telling everyone we're the Great Satan then we bombed a girls school.

If he's going to get a national profile on the strength of a younger woman's campaign, I'm going to come out and say it: during his short-lived tenure as a math professor, Biss had an inappropriate romantic relationship with one of his undergraduate students. I was that student.

Let me be clear: I’m glad Kristi Noem was fired. But we still have to abolish ICE.

anti-trans Dems ate shit last night

Not a surprise--Mike Johnson is, above all, a white nationalist.

Abolish ICE. There’s no reforming it. There’s no compromise. There’s only one way to rein in ICE’s terror campaign. Abolish it.

Larry Nance Jr., forward for Cleveland Cavs

He's also quoting Anne Frank on twitter

It’s common and sort of understandable to see Miller as this evil genius. Important to remember he’s actually a complete fucking moron who, when he got a chance, immediately engineered a PR disaster that shitcanned Trump’s best-polling issue. Always the way with these types.

One of the best things I’ve read in a while:

New season available

ICE’s cruelty knows no bounds. Deporting children with cancer. Shooting moms. And now, using a 5 year-old as “bait” to detain his family. It’s far past clear: ICE must be abolished. Congress should not give it any additional funding. And the people responsible for its crimes should face charges.

ICE detained people while waiting in line at a food pantry. Again, ICE DETAINED PEOPLE WHILE WAITING IN LINE AT A FOOD PANTRY.

Seizure ... by whom? If we're asserting that the money is safer in Qatar than the US, that suggests that it is being protected because Qatar has something the US lacks — presumably a lack of accountability to American courts and Congress. www.semafor.com/article/01/1...

SEOUL, Jan 13 (Reuters) - South Korea's special prosecutor on Tuesday requested the death penalty for former president Yoon Suk Yeol on charges of insurrection over his brief imposition of martial law in December 2024.

NEW: GoFundMe strictly bans fundraisers for “the legal defense of financial and violent crimes,” yet is currently running one “to help pay for any legal services” for the ICE agent who killed Renee Nicole Good. Its conflict is not even the least bit contestable.

Republicans made welfare fraud in Minnesota the most important story in the country. Schumer turned a war for oil into a question about national security briefings.

Love seeing my friend @johncullen.bsky.social’s hard work on Broomgate get chewed up and shit out into some dickhead’s video essay for morons. But hey at least he linked to the podcast he stole in the description!

its incredible to read how the regime has to do a hard sell on the oil companies for this. president grandpas 1989 brain does it again. oil is 50 dollars a barrel and the infrastructure is degraded and the situation completely confused and politically volatile. oil ceos not exactly excited. amazing

All seven of Derrick White's blocked shots vs. Utah

Ohio Rep. Troy Balderson is there laughing along with Trump's unadorned anti-Somali racism. His district runs adjacent to Columbus, the city with the second-largest Somali population in the U.S. Hey @dispatch.com, maybe worth reporting about this? bsky.app/profile/just...

Hey @nature.com, have you got an explanation for how the hell THIS happened? & especially why you accepted a paper with such a bizarre piece of genAI slop in it?! & more to the point, why we should take you seriously at all going forward? www.nature.com/articles/s41...

man this just fucking sucks this never should have happened, they never should have been there

B.C. wolves use line to pull up crab traps in first possible tool use by species

The AI bubble may be about to bust. Peter Thiel has sold all of his Nvidia stock. We all need to say this very clearly: NO BAILOUTS FOR THEFT-TECH! Expropriate their asses instead. They stole from all of us and fully plan to burn the planet. They owe us - not the other way around. 1/3

Important to understand the Epstein stuff and the fascism and the corruption are, in a lot of ways, really all the same story from different angles: powerful men who can and do abuse vulnerable people around them because they can, and because systems of elite accountability catastrophically failed
