There was a liberal court for a few years in the mid 20th century and the right wing response was to delegitimize for DECADES right up to the point they had a supermajority, at which point it became Wrong to do so. These people think you are stupid bsky.app/profile/chri...

New in PN: The regime wants to turn artists into performing monkeys "Freedom of speech and freedom of expression is the right to criticize the ruler. But it’s also the right to not play jazz vibraphone if you don’t want to — not even if the ruler says you must for his greater glory."

Just started watching Riverdale. Umm, some choices were definitely made.

sincerely, if you're in wargaming i strongly recommend getting very good at spotting which people play the black templars because of the "templars" part, there's a lot of fash hiding behind the fandom in some spaces

They are able to buy medical debt for just over 1.5¢ per dollar. They spent 10 mil to relieve 642 mil of debt. Every state should be doing this and maxing it out within the debt relief org’s normal rules.

How do we deal with Wish in DnD, Pathfinder, and other TTRPGs? Most of the time your players won’t actively try to break stuff, but it’s okay so say “no” when they do. #dnd #pathfinder #dmadvice

Just started watching Riverdale. Umm, some choices were definitely made.

Seems worth mentioning that Cain was only the producer on the first game, didn't want to work on the second, and hasn't had anything to do with the series since. He's hardly the authority on what Fallout's about. This is no comment on Erin's post, btw, just on the article that skipped some details.

Trump (well Miller) thinks he can revoke even the citizenship of naturalized individuals who don't show sufficient appreciation of the American flag? The most anti free speech presidency of our lifetimes.

I'm one who often watches shows years late, so I thought it would be fun to look back at some of the shows I actually watched when they came out. A thread:

This is that 10/90 split economists keep talking about. If you make >$150k a year (top 10% of Americans), everything is AWESOME. If you make less than that, you are struggling to even engage meaningfully in the economy. The collapse has escaped the balance sheets and is visible to the naked eye now.

Begging you to understand that this paper provides a better experience and better vintage read. 'Gloss means better' is something we should all step away from. Sometimes a glossy book is great, but not *every* time.

So…is he fucking going to jail?! He’s a fucking pedophile! You can’t just expose things and not prosecute! Corruption needs to be actually dealt with, releasing information isn’t enough. Information gets buried, especially these days. I guarantee you most people won’t even see the below article.

It’s not our duty to just smile and nod when a man with this much power demonstrates that he’s a pathological liar and an imbecile. Quite the contrary. Real patriots say out loud this is just plain nuts and he’s unfit to hold office.

As opposed to the 80s, when people bought an album and complained there was only 1 or 2 songs worth listening to on it? This isn't new. Some will make albums worth hearing as albums, most won't. Some will listen to whole albums, most won't.

It looks like the owners of Genesis are using bankruptcy to sell the company back to themselves, so they aren't facing any penalty for what they've done. Genesis isn't the only nursing home chain gets out of settlements this way. Contact your congresspeople, and ask them to fix this!

Bring back the idea that there's stuff it's rude to ask people about and none of your business (why are you masking, why aren't you drinking, etc.)

It is fascinating to me that people think that folks who mask need to explain it to... Anyone. Like, do you want people to give you the murder board explanation of our chronic illness? Talk about our parent or kid with cancer? It couldn't be less of your business.

Look, this is where I draw the line at people using “realism” as short for shit they think they know but don’t. One of books of the epic cycle (the myth of the Trojan war collectively) is literally called the Aethiopis and tells of Memnon (son of the dawn) leading an Ethiopian army to aid Troy FFS.

Trump: "We have a fool at the Federal Reserve. I mean, Biden reappointed him. It's too bad. You would have thought he wouldn't have done that." (Jerome Powell was appointed by Trump)

No one randomly owes you information about their health, their loved one’s health, or, understandably, just wanting to avoid Covid, which is the only way to prevent Long Covid.

The protagonist of the last book I read was a monster hunter. If I get the physical ability to go with it, cool. Otherwise my knees say I might last 5 minutes, on a good day.

Every installment of this MTG rehabilitation tour feels like “Nice Scorpion Regrets Past Stings, Needs Help With River Crossing!”

this seems specifically designed to break mail-in voting (where deadlines are defined by postmark)

Normally, I block out people's names for things like this, but this person deserves to go on blast. First of all, Kibblesmith said no such thing. He only suggested that people not make it their whole personality. Second, if you respond to something by calling out someone who has nothing to do with -

"When it happens, Republicans will object (and you can only imagine the meltdown Trump himself will have on Truth Social). The response Dems give should be simple: *Too bad. We have the power now.* A strong message must be sent to the country and future generations that Trump will not be honored."

This is not Trump being stupid, tho Trump is a very stupid person. This is not Trump being played, tho Trump is one of the most easily manipulated people who’s ever lived. No, the truth is scarier. This is Trump working for & siding with Putin. This is Trump, the Russian asset.

"People who mask are immunocompromised and vulnerable" is also wrong. I mask because I *don't want to be* immunocompromised. It's true that many people who mask do so because it's their only defense. It's also true that some of us mask because we're aware of the risks to otherwise healthy people.

Could for real use some boosts, fam

In complaining about gag order, DHS violates gag order.

This is one of their stupidest ideas ever. Your health doesn't care if you're poor. Without good health insurance, just one of my medications costs $1000/mo. I take 6 prescription medications a day. No voucher system will cover that.

I'm one who often watches shows years late, so I thought it would be fun to look back at some of the shows I actually watched when they came out. A thread:

We have made over 250 items for #DnD and #Pathfinder2E! Over 35 creatures for both systems! We maintain Foundry VTT modules for both systems! We make player options! We have a Discord for folks to create with each other! Also 80% off this month. DO THE THING! patreon.com/join/abyssalbrews

Trump voters: We didn’t vote for this. Others: Yes, you did. You didn’t think you were going to be on the receiving end.

On top of all the rest of the BS here, could someone with a law degree translate that last bullet point? It's my understanding that ALL statutes of limitation are based on when the action happened, not when it was discovered. Is that not the case?

When John Doar was head of the Civil Rights Division, he quoted from Shakespeare’s RICHARD III in an eloquent closing argument in the case against Klan murderers. The current head is calling podcasters “hoes” for criticizing the president’s cabinet

I'm trying to be better about this and, when I remember, it does help.

something very important for Dems to realize is that the tech overlords are not people you can win back by promising a lighter touch and saying a few nice things they’ve gotten a taste of mask-off fascism and they are not going back, they don’t want to play nice with the peons anymore

First of all, Taibbi is outright lying that the book's cover says anything at all about him, as you can see for yourself. Second, I sincerely hope no one ever takes legal advice from Flanagan, because wow, that is some next level stupid.

Like so many things with Trump, this is unintentionally a huge tell. Trump is a purely transactional creature so when he says “friends,” he means two things. One, people he’s done quasi- or super-illegal shit with. Or, two, himself. He’s not yelling at her because he’s concerned about other people.

It’s wild we’re still talking about masks. I still mask up in grocery stores, elevators, public bathrooms, and public transit cuz I don’t like being sick and I don’t want to get my kid sick and it doesn’t have to be more complicated than not liking being sick. It’s weird anyone would question that.

you do not and should not hand it to MTG under any circumstances it is useful for us, politically, that she's broken with Trump - because "Rs in Disarray" is a good narrative but she herself is still a vicious antisemite and transphobe and nobody progressive should lose sight of that

Stop giving MTG credit for taking part in white nationalist infighting. Its just infighting. She is still among the worst of the worst. 2 Nazis fighting doesn't suddenly make one of them better. ‘I Was Just So Naïve’: Inside Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Break With Trump www.nytimes.com/2025/12/29/m...

Should also add that right before she quit, Marjorie Taylor Greene passed a bill through the House to ban gender-affirming care for minors. She is not a moderate. She is still super right wing. She just felt Trump no longer could accomplish her goals.

JOSH SMITH On HALESTORM's Longevity: There 'Was Just Always This Family Vibe' Within The Band

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has stated that the 1918 flu pandemic was caused by a lab virus from vaccine research, a defective influenza vaccine. Let’s analyze what a lie this is. First, in 1918, 107 years ago, virology was in its infancy
