are we finally going to experience a widespread T. Swift backlash? I suppose there might still be a few good things that come to those who wait

the Führer has no prinzip

Why is Pritzker letting IL state cops help ICE abuse his state??

that's why free state legislatures should be creating armed citizen Constitution Protection Units

This must really hit if you've had a cognitive brain injury and haven't noticed that harassing the mods until they ban the left has been one of the most successful right-wing media strategies in modern times, producing the kind of information environment where Bari Weiss gets handed CBS news

This is a picture inside Portland ICE. The flag on the wall belongs to an Indigenous 2 spirit minor of Portland. The flag led the "every child matters" march and #OrangeShirtDay Remembrance Day. DHS stole a Native child's flag as a trophy and hung it up.

91% of homeland security personnel are exempt from the "shutdown," including most of ICE, Border Patrol, TSA and other agencies: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/ice-border...

this is not something that happens in a democracy

John Roberts was part of the 3-judge panel presiding over Hamdan v. Rumsfeld while actively interviewing for a seat on the Supreme Court. He didn't recuse himself, didn't inform Hamdan's lawyers, and ruled in the Bush admin's favor the day before he interviewed with Bush himself.

if you’re a visual learner i made you some maps of where the people quoted in this article as supporting portland being occupied by troops live

The level of brightness standardized in modern headlights is a known safety hazard. Regulators and insurance safety associations think the tests circa the 1980s don’t need updating. Auto manufacturers have perverse incentives and have found ways to cheat these tests.

This bizarre 'nostalgia' towards things that never existed by petty tyrants and fascists was already there before AI came and gave expression to their picture-thinking. Here is Paolo Virno from 2002:

what

in retrospect, by far the funniest social justice language demand I saw in the 2010s/2020s was that non-Indigenous people should not appropriate the term 'spirit animal', and should instead use 'patronus' from Harry Potter. "oops."

what would the proper adjective for 'Welsh-speaking' be? Cambriphone? Cymraephone? Britanniphone?

fifty years after the second nuremberg trials there are gonna be kids going into their grandfathers basement and finding these in carefully hidden display cases

After Miller tweeted that calling ICE is "incitement to violence," I directly asked Bannon if this means the government will be unleashed on groups that describe ICE that way. "Yes," Bannon told me, adding that Miller is "in charge." You can read that exchange in this link: bsky.app/profile/greg...

I sure hope Jeffries and Schumer are able to reschedule that meeting to negotiate with Trump to prevent a government shutdown

Anti-Constituional Court and an Unconstitutional Constitution

the rulings (and especially the non-rulings on the shadow docket) of the Republican majority on the Supreme Court are so blatantly contrary to any reasonable reading of the U.S. constitution that, when the current regime is destroyed, they should be formally treated as participants in a coup d'état

if we haven't already entered into a recession, then why is everyone talking about hot dogs

FBI releases first image of shooting suspect

hard at work etching the words "whatever's most convenient for you" on every bullet casing in this cache of ammunition. it's actually really difficult to fit all the letters on there, if you even care

have you seen Andy Pizza lately? yeah, yeah, he got real religious all of a sudden

you're telling me a law professor who repeatedly collaborated with Adrian Vermeule isn't meeting the moment??

in retrospect, the television show ReBoot (1994-2001) contained a prescient warning: letting gamers win even once can lead to catastrophic destruction

Since the headlines can’t be honest, I will do the work of clarifying that this article illuminates how ICE is routinely kidnapping children as a method of extortion

We will not save free speech by handing Disney the keys to the first amendment to save for the rest of us. We should see this as a chapter in the ongoing corporate takeover of our social infrastructure. Right now, the key players are Sinclair (who control local affiliates) and Disney (the network)

Up betimes among my workmen, hastening to get things ready against my wife’s coming.

Good morning. Today in "One day, one paper", tropical deforestation from 2001–2020 caused 0.27 °C local warming, exposing 345 million people and leading to 28,000 annual heat-related deaths. Southeast Asia, Africa, and the Americas are most affected, highlighting climate-linked health risks 🌎

it's a Mastodon instance, so presumably messages are not encrypted at all?

More than that. "The FBI ***recorded*** Tom Homan taking the money "after indicating he could help the agents — who were posing as business executives — win government contracts in a second Trump administration."

if you somehow forgot about every other single thing that the regime is done, these boat strikes alone should be sufficient to put Trump and Hegseth (at minimum, probably throw Miller and Vance in there as well) in jail for life

the metaphor of 'expanding the tent' implicitly relies on the obviously false conceit that a platform, ideology, position or idea has an built in limit on the number of people who can support it (and so the only way to have a bigger tent is to permit the broadest range of positions)

the uselessness of national Dems is thrown into such sharp relief as Illinois state senators physically take ICE on and Illinois congressional candidates, one of whom is the mayor of Evanston, get beaten and tear gassed at an ICE facility

@bsky.app @support.bsky.team @jay.bsky.team it's time to get rid of Aaron Rodericks. thanks

it also captures how one gains exposure (or acquires the currency of attention) in algorithmic social media: through sufficient adjacency to that which is already popular. when everything is vibes, all accumulation is aura farming.

CONTESTANT: Okay, I'll take "Cursed Screenshots" for 500, Alex {alarm sounds} TREBEK: Looks like we've got a Daily Double

My memo asking for prior documentation of my Nuremberg defense is undermining my Nuremberg defense

Hundreds of people detained at the Alligator Alcatraz immigration processing center west of Miami, Florida, appear to have vanished. They have disappeared from the ICE online database, and their lawyers and families have been unable to locate them. english.elpais.com/usa/2025-09-...

in the 22nd century, Earth is divided between four megacorporations: Weyland-Yutani. Prodigy. Earthlink. America Online

we must all resolve to be meaner, cruder, and more spiteful about Charlie Kirk

Peter Thiel, bravely raising the banner of Red Kahina Thought

Everyone is prefacing each new bit of information on the shooting with “It seems clear that…” No it doesn’t! Nothing seems clear. Nobody can agree on the intended meaning of any of the signifiers in this case. There is no shared hermeneutic! The signifiers are doing all the lifting.

It would be pretty funny if it turns out that Robinson was basically apolitical, had no real radicalization moment, and just decided Kirk was too hateful to live. Suggesting that this is just a natural human reaction to unfiltered Charlie Kirk exposue
