I need to get off here because between the BREAKING posts with no link/proof and the “no one is covering it” posts when they demonstrably are, I’m going nuts. Everyone is getting worse at the internet and the internet is getting worse

FWIW
I didn’t see this at DTW this morning. Just the usual RealID one

This. Whole. Thread.

There is no measured way to say what I am about to say.

If the Supreme Court agrees with the Trump administration to end birthright citizenship, we must end this current Supreme Court.

I do not say this lightly.

I believe it. I went to renew after the announcement today and the fee is now $26/month when we were paying $16 when I canceled earlier this week. Decided to hold off on THAT expense

If you, like me, are the parent of a neuro-atypical child dreading this autism press conference, please remember: These are the people hurting our kids. Not us. They are the ones stigmatizing and pathologizing them. They are the ones peddling untested science. And we should be very, very angry.

When corporations surrender in the face of that pressure, they endanger not just themselves, but the right to free expression for everyone in this country.

The duty to defend the First Amendment does not rest with government, but with all of us.

Bleak: Spokane to DTW, mid morning, half empty flight as covid was shutting down WA and I was texting home to stock up on supplies

Scary: DTW to ABQ midday emergency landing because of cockpit depressurization due to a hole in the windshield

Both sunny days with good visibility. Both Delta

Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries could hold a press conference right now and announce that they will not fund a government that is engaged in an organized and unconstitutional effort to silence any criticism.

The Washington Post now has no Black Opinion columnists - none - at a time when white nationalism is ascendant in our nation. I am grateful to Karen for the truth and fearlessness her work has always shown. Keep shining that light, my friend.

This is my position as well. You want my vote? You need to salt the earth this administration walked on

Seriously, I want to see a one-plank platform from the Dems in 2028: criminal prosecution of this whole administration.

So I'm grumpy that we seem to be once again creating a dynamic in our party where the people who got to the right answer sooner are marginalized for doing so, while people who were wrong get credit for changing their minds once it became obvious they were wrong. (See also NAFTA, Iraq War, Gaza.)

This isn’t the action I’m demanding. Not even close

Today I found out my parents had never seen Terriers. Watched the pilot with them, and I had forgotten how perfect it was. I loved that show Justice (and another season!!) for Terriers!!
