Here is your wannabe Second Foundation, folks. Trump is Asimov's Mule. Musk is just a rodeo clown narcissist to distract from the actual power brokers.

Dear funding agencies,

I know we all want to discover the wonder drug that will cure the horrible diseases, but to do that, we need to invest in basic, unsexy, foundational research on how the systems work. Funding can’t all be drug development.

Sincerely,
Looking for basic research grants.

Literally surrounded by Typhoons and squabbling over tribal drama. My 6th grade essay about the inevitable fall of Pax Americana isv right on schedule. I do not enjoy being Correct Cassandra. So much suffering is coming.

Find a thing you can do — no matter if you think it's a little thing, no matter if you wish you could do more, no matter if other people tell you it won't matter — and do that thing.

It takes a village.

ICE agents interfered with—and even threatened to “shoot and arrest”—emergency personnel rescuing an injured protester last week in Portland.

The agent “pointed his finger at me in a threatening manner,” the driver recalled, “and began viciously yelling in my face.

Obviously nobody should hold their breath, but it could be an interesting test case about enforcing the Rule of 3.

A quick search on this site shows that at least three people (myself included) have filed FOIA requests with DOJ for Pam Bondi’s Truth Social messages.

Thanks to the 2016 FOIA amendments, this triggers the Rule of 3, which requires the agency to proactively post records requested 3 or more times.

The Steady State @steadystatevets.bsky.social · 5h

Trump’s rhetoric has fully embraced the good vs. evil narrative. By calling opponents “the devil’s ideology” and claiming the left “becomes violent,” he’s casting political disagreement as a holy war. But it’s just dehumanization, designed to justify extreme measures against dissent.

Here are current pics of Harold Alston Smith, who the right-wingers call "Tommy 2" - comparing him to the other MAGA bully down there, Tommy Allen, who has been arrested multiple times himself.

Hello~ i wrote something for @theverge.com about the surreal horror of online transness in a fascist surveillance state.

it’s time to change tactics and make ourselves less legible to this machinery of death — but *without* sacrificing our connection and community.

The return of the trans underground

The internet once helped trans people connect and organize. Now it’s a dangerous liability. What comes next?

They want to kill people. Trump's lawyers argued he could kill his political opponents without criminal prosecution. He praised Duterte's mass murder of "drug dealers." He's ordering extrajudicial killings of fishermen at sea.

The administration is reframing migrants and gang members as “terrorists”, so DHS wannabe operators can do GWOT-style night raids here in the U.S. of A.

Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @reichlinmelnick.bsky.social · 10h

Remember when Stephen Miller claimed the Chicago apartment raid was on a building “filled with Tren de Aragua terrorists”?

Well, DHS has now dropped the number of alleged TdA members arrested in the building from 2 to 1.
