TIL that people still genuinely think the roommate of the alleged Kirk shooter is trans and romantically involved.

Then I googled and realized it's because none of the major news sites ever corrected this or discussed the obvious scapegoating of trans folks in this fiasco.

Man, I'm just so tired.

Trump: I want to thank Stephen Miller I would love to have him come up and explain his true feelings. Maybe not his truest feelings. That might be going a little too far

It's really not about politics anymore. The apparatus of the Republican Party has simply become a haven for bad people.

When I studied the Second World War I genuinely could not understand how the Germans found so many people to participate in their worst excesses. And I mean across the whole war, not just concentration camps.

I don't have a problem understanding it any more...

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

As an introvert with anxiety and panic disorders, I’m excited to see so many local options for the No Kings protest. I’m in the Twin Cities, so if I feel overwhelmed about going to the capitol in St Paul, I can find a smaller one in a suburb and still participate. I’m using this as a selling point!

Dr Amber, esq. @ambertutorslaw.bsky.social · 1d

And anyone who says otherwise is trying to impress you - which should therefore do the opposite!

I’ve read about some causes of arrested emotional maturation (becoming famous, for example) - but any thoughts on why this is seeming to happen so broadly so quickly in American culture? (Though maybe my axiom is wrong there, too…?)

How did Jennings feel about the grand jury process when it indicted Trump? Was it weaponization then? Bet it was….

God, his hypocrisy should be way more shameful for him than it seems.

Now more than ever, when government official will just baldly lie and not care. I prefer reporting that talks to actual people, not animated cardboard cutouts.

And the best adaptation of any Dickens that has ever been put onto the screen, or ever will be, is the Muppets Christmas Carol. But I think that is quite possibly the least unhinged opinion it is possible to have about Dickens. It's simply fact.

Ayn Rand’s stories aren’t bad if you take out the ideology, monologues, and misogyny.

We must overturn Citizens United. Money is not speech, it is not intelligence, it is not inherent value, and it does not give one the right to control politics.

Honestly, it needs to go further than this.

We need to confront the fact that democracy and wealth hoarding cannot coexist. Allowing people to amass the resources of a small state/country allows them to act as such, which is inimical to a shared society of “one person, one vote.”

John Rogers @johnrogers.bsky.social · 2d

“No Kings” is great , but we really don't get a functioning democracy back until we internalize, bone deep, the instinctive response to this and every other statement like it: “I don’t care what that rich guy thinks.”

Make it your morning affirmation. Say it ten times at the top of every hour.

One thought that few seem to care to utter is that you can't have viewpoint diversity to any great degree if you keep hiring people from the same four schools, all having the same professors. You get the view of one segment of a class hierarchy.

I had a prof in grad school who had little business cards that explained the proper meaning of beg the question that he would hand out whenever someone (mis) used it. It was his biggest pet peeves. Now it’s one of mine.
