The Trump-Supreme Court battle is not really the crisis. The crisis is here now. Trump is enacting an insidious coordinated attack on our institutions of democratic accountability, designed to crater democracy before next fall. 1/ A long 🧵to explain the plan & how we stop it.

@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social I’m meditating on the role of status and status resentment among Trump voters, but for people in general. What do you think of this question: “Do you feel you deserve more respect, or are you satisfied with the respect you receive?”

Humans are animals that evolved in tribal cults. They constantly killed people from other tribes. And if you were outcast, you died. This is our default operating system.

It’s weird how McConnell’s decades-long quest to undermine the government has undermined the government

Democrats had better be planning to shut down the government in March.

Excited for the game and President Trump getting DEI out of the NFL!

President Trump's revealed agenda is expanding US direct control across the Western Hemisphere as a durable vehicle to cement his legacy. This is the reason for his focus on Canada, Mexico, Greenland, Panama, etc.

I stand with President Trump and the people of Texas in the fight against wind energy. The people of Texas understand that the wind, like a hurricane or tornado, is a power that cannot and should not be harnessed.

Thankful that the President has brought the Russian invasion of Ukraine to a close, restoring the dignity and freedom of the Ukrainian people on his Day 1.

I admire the President’s commitment to birthright citizenship by his sending his children back to Czechoslovakia and Slovenia until his paternity can be established, as their mothers were non-citizens here valiantly doing work Americans wouldn’t do.

Guide for the Democrats

This Sunday, Pete Buttigieg should announce his candidacy for the 2028 presidency. Take the attention from the worst person in America and put it on one of the best.

I’m envisioning the creation of something I’m deeming The Curiosity Engine. It’s similar in ways to A Young Lady’s Illustrated Primer, a sci-fi AI tutor that teaches a child everything; in that story, through a Victorian fantasy narrative.

My beloved neurons are making me fat

I just stumbled across Figma's new "Slides" beta and haven't been this excited since Tabs appeared in my Google Docs. (Not sarcasm, just evidence of what my life looks like these days)

America First! Pay $10M to each Greenland resident so we can make them into AMERICAN CITIZENS and add a new state LET’S GOOOOOO

People want nothing more than for nothing to change

WHO CAN HELP? Official GoFundMe for RUDY: gofund.me/trump2028

I am extremely disappointed that our President Elect is moving literally 100 times slower than promised. If he’s this big of a failure on what’s most critical, we won’t own Greenland until all the good ice is melted.

“The startup’s tagline, ‘Not owned by anybody,’ is a pointed reference to billionaire Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos and other moguls who, in Rubin’s view, have ‘bent the knee’ to President-elect Donald Trump.”

The outrageously named "Marinwood Coalition Against Segregation" is suing to stop the development of a complex that consists entirely of affordable housing because it is segregation and stigmatization. What a load of bullshit.

I’m sickened enough by Zuck’s transactionalism that while I’ve been a heavy user since the start, I too have suffered the enshittification, and I think it might be time to pick up and move here.

Not only should we bring in Canada as 13 new states, plus Greenland as one, we should also annex Mexico’s 32 states. The more the merrier, 96 states! And abolish the Senate while we’re at it, I expect we’ll see its worthlessness as a bulwark for democracy in T-minus 9 days…

I grew up in Houston, but have lived in LA. People who’ve lived through hurricane destruction should condemn Trump and Republican politicians who use this disaster to insult and attack instead of doing what is needed—helping.

An excellent piece, and a much-needed critique of—ok, an attack on— our seemingly “universal, bipartisan devotion to a shared, relatively new, and unnamed ideology: Blue-Collar Populism.” libertiesjournal.com/online-artic...

The finale will likely be a disaster, but S2 E2 is really something

Great to hear how this group therapy and developing targeted self-management can make such a difference for these men.

Ready for the big company that announces it will donate $0.01 to the Trump inauguration.

@support.bsky.team feature request: a block list that I can share with a group of people, which we can all contribute to. Fundamental problem: There are many junk accounts, and I want to reduce the number I have to personally take action to block. Personalized AI is also a potential solution.

@decodingfoxnews.bsky.social can you make a “block” list that people can subscribe to? Thanks!

The effects of the Bashar al-Assad regime’s demise will extend far beyond Syria’s borders, write @natashahall.bsky.social and @joosthiltermann.bsky.social. “The end of Assad seems certain to transform the Middle East’s balance of power.”

Democrats: live and let live. Republican: live how I live. See the difference?

Buffer zone expansion being a top priority for Israel, this is a potent opportunity for them.

Manhattan seems to have a lot of cameras. Do all murders get this kind of effort put into them? If not, why not? What about other crimes?

The AI video game revolution begins. Creators, go!

@support.bsky.team I just submitted an likely impractical feature request to not show me posts that include screenshots from Twitter. Those posts consistently degrade my experience.
