These people want leftist and liberals to come back to Twitter so badly. They give all kinds of reasons, but the fact is without them the Nazi bar marinates in its own juices and they can't stand it.

Okay the weird internet habit of just putting a picture of an attractive woman in the thumbnail when it has nothing to do with the story is getting a bit out of hand.

this is a general warrant and it's specifically the kind of warrant the framers passed the 4th amendment to outlaw
WOW. @haleaziz.bsky.social with a new scoop: ICE now gets a running list of every person who is going to be taking a domestic flight inside the United States from the TSA and runs it through their database looking for targets. This explains the Babson College student's arrest.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

The real question is not "Why is Bluesky so left-coded," the real question is "Why can't the right exist in a social media environment without algorithmic assistance, where people can ignore them"

Honestly can't tell if she meant "prosecute" or she's just embraced the full fascist experience.
Noem: "Anyone who has info on this needs to know we will be coming after you & we will bring you to justice. We absolutely will persecute you b/c we do know that we will never allow this to continue to happen in our country -- allow individuals who came to our country unvetted by Joe Biden ... "

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

A reminder to anyone who thinks MTG should be brought over to the Democratic side because of her blowup with MAGA because "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" or something:
There's usually a very good reason the enemy of your enemy wasn't already your friend in the first place.

And I must say, as an autistic person who has experienced this MANY times throughout my life... being told you "should have known" something you literally didn't know is one of the most exasperating and defeating things to hear.

@scalzi.com I'm curious to get your thoughts on the propriety (or lack thereof) of an author choosing to interact with someone who posts something on social media that they did not like the author's book.

Surprising literally no lawyer who actually knows anything about the Supreme Court, yet still surprising every member of the general public.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court DENIES former county clerk Kim Davis's request for the justices to take up her longshot bid to overturn 2015's Obergefell v. Hodges marriage equality decision. No justice even writes about the request.

Fuck this shit. 40 days we have held on here for what. For WHAT. Millions still kicked off insurance with nothing better than a pinky swear they can vote on it a month from now? Chickenshit.
Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children.
But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.
