God if nothing else its nice to see -someone- in congress actually say the real facts on this shit rather than just spouting off the same heritage foundation talking points ad nauseum

The VRA—and by extension, the fate of American democracy—will be in very, very bad shape.

If America still had the rule of law, this would be the easiest prosecution ever, but we all know absolutely nothing will happen.

It's a Republican tradition.

NEW: Several high-ranking federal election officials attended a summit last week at which prominent activists who worked to overturn Trump’s loss in the 2020 election pressed for the president to declare a national emergency to take over the midterms.

Gorillaz "The Mountain" 8-minute short film is now online. Directed by Jamie Hewlett, Max Taylor & Tim McCourt at The Line studio. An homage to the golden era of 2D animation, produced with a hybrid analogue-digital workflow. >> www.catsuka.com/news/2026-02...

So much of my work life right here.

Across the US, people fed up with Flock cameras surveilling their communities, and with local governments that are often unwilling to listen to concerns over privacy violations and ICE data sharing practices, are taking matters into their own hands—and tearing them down.

Trump Suffers Setback Unrelated To Child Rape

For all those celebrating the tariff rollback. Yes, it's a political "win". But not one of these companies are going to roll back prices. They know we'll keep paying them so now they will just call those 30% increases "profit" instead. It just saves us from other items getting taxed.

Reminder: under no circumstance should you give discord your ID. It is gonna -suck- trying to set up alternatives, and this whole fiasco is going to damage communities, but you CANNOT give them your info

👏👏👏

ProPublica received eight handwritten letters from children who have been held at the detention center that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was recently released from. We'll let their words speak for themselves.

Commission for @reykur.ch Of their character as a 925 silver pendant. They provided me with their own bicolor sapphire that I set in a tiny gold setting. The length is 5cm tail to head. #dragon #crafting #furryart #jewelry

Barber's Agnus Dei fixing my brain today. If you need a piece of music to just feel, it's perfect.

HEGSETH GAVE THE GUYS SHOOTING CITIZENS IN THE STREET AND BREAKING DOWN DOORS AN ANTI-AIRCRAFT LASER. Sorry for shouting I just can’t hear my thoughts over the ringing in my ears.

This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥

NEW: Trump is in the unredacted Epstein files "more than a million times," Raskin tells Axios in an interview. www.axios.com/2026/02/10/t...

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century. He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

With Ring, American consumers built the surveillance dragnet. Ring's Super Bowl ad, which highlighted a feature to find lost dogs, showed Ring is still, again, and always will be in the business of leveraging its network of luxury surveillance consumers www.404media.co/with-ring-am...

When a headline says it all:

Y'all, we're so fucked. That Wyden letter is the fire alarm going off loud and clear. He can't say how fucked we are but lemme tell ya, it's bad bad bad. Wyden has never gone off half-cocked and knows more about the intelligence community than most. If he's pulling the alarm it's already too late.

Every day Mamdani comes out and is like "hey guys, I turned off the orphan-crushing machine. Literally just had to flip a switch. Took less than 5 minutes." After decades of dem leadership pissing and moaning and fundraising about how complex an issue it is and how difficult the process is etc

Last month, the Trump administration revealed exactly the future it is building. One in which the laws are ignored, American life is cheap, and elections are hijacked by FBI raids.

@alamodrafthouse.bsky.social hey Alamo, fuck all the way off with your mobile ordering DURING the movie. What a way to screw up the movie going experience.

I say this with all care and thought, we as a nation are in deep shit and it's not going to get better unless we hold these literal thugs responsible as often and frequently as possible. They are coming for all of us, not just some of us.

70% of computer problems are solvable just like this.

It's Nice To Be Nice.

i say this as someone with at least a mild background in cybersecurity — tiktok is now trump/fedgov spyware. you need to delete your account and app ASAP. just because the app isn‘t open doesn’t mean they won’t be harvesting your personal data to target you. queer folx get the fuck off that app

As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

Republicans: everyone must be able to carry any gun at all times, up to and including high powered rifles, to protect themselves against tyranny also Republicans, without batting an eye: carrying a gun is unquestionable justification for federal agents to shoot you dead in the street

Well, that's just fucking terrifying. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

exactly - motherfuckers Schumer and the rest of the useless spineless corporate Dems still think they are operating in an old white guy institutionalist establishment genteel rule of law world instead of a white supremacist racist misogynist xenophobic christian nationalist nazi lawless world.

A lot of people are talking about how America is being run by old people out of touch with reality. I did a video about this June 28, 2024 after the first presidential debate. Seems appropriate to repost it right now.

Better batten down the hatches. Ted Cruz is getting on a plane to Laguna Beach in winter.

Swelling rage

Wow, sure would be pretty crazy if a ton of experts in the artificial intelligence field relentlessly warned everyone about this state of affairs being inevitable over and over for years.
