While it would be nice to have a downtown hotel room for SDCC for the sheer convenience, I've never managed to get one during Hotelpocalypse. Good thing I at least live in the SD area as this year I completely forgot about the sale and didn't even have a chance to be denied. 🤪

The way it works is that you strip fundamental rights from targets with less political support that people will turn their consciences off to justify persecuting and then eventually the state can do it to anyone, that’s always been the plan bsky.app/profile/pbum...

Setting aside the incredibly dangerous and fascist aspect of this, is there actual evidence that Khalil was a “Hamas supporter”? Or is the standard for a green-card holder being sent to a secret location and possibly deported just “critical of Israel”?

It's telling that Canada started protesting the incredibly dangerous and irresponsible Donald Trump by pulling American products off its shelves before one American foot hit a street in protest.

We are lagging behind in our response to fascism-by-the- stupid and need to step up our game.

This was always the risk with Gabbard and Patel at the head of our intelligence gathering.

We not only will lose our own sources who won’t trust them, but we will lose intelligence from our close allies.

This makes a terrorist attack on US soil much more likely.

Britain urged to form breakaway 'Four Eyes' alliance without the US

Some in the defence establishment are now suggesting forming a sub-group in the existing 'Five Eyes' alliance to allow intelligence sharing without a US veto.

Sorry I didn't post my opinion more eloquently, I guess? Maybe a full length blog post would've conveyed the nuances better? As someone who stays away from those kinds of interactions, felt weird to be the target of it. 🤷‍♀️

...of things I hadn't even said or alluded to in the post and all that BS. I know social media can be toxic, but this was such a weird post for people to get so massively bent out of shape over. Get upset over important things, geez.

I posted an opinion related to movie theaters on another site, but apparently it was a 'bad take' and it kind of blew up (relatively speaking for me as no one usually sees my posts). Some people seemingly lost their minds and responded or outright accused me...

The absolute hypocrisy of the Repubs for doing this in the first place, but 10 fucking Dems voting for it??? WTAF is wrong with them?

Jess Piper @piperformissouri.bsky.social · Mar 6

Ten Democrats voted to censure their colleague Al Green. Here are their names:

Ami Bera, Calif.; Ed Case, Hawaii; Jim Costa, Calif.; Laura Gillen, N.Y.; Jim Himes, Conn.; Chrissy Houlahan, Pa.; Marcy Kaptur, Ohio; Jared Moskowitz, Fla.; Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, Wash.; and Tom Suozzi, N.Y.

The fact he's throwing out a pardon for Pete Rose (who wasn't even convicted of a crime) as some sad attempt at distraction really shows he has nothing but rocks for brains. Actually, rocks might be too generous...

Shitler just canceled any peace talks bc he is offended that Zelenskyy stood his ground.

Let me be clear: Zelenskyy didn’t offend the US. We have always stood by our allies in defending democracy.

Shitler & CouchFuqr wanted someone to buff their egos. Zelenskyy is too much of a man to do that.

These are brown shirts, and this is Nazi behavior.

We are not in a fight between right and left anymore. This is a fight between Americans and those who would bend the knee to a king. If you care about the soul of this country, we have to stand for each other.

The Telegraph has got its hands on a copy of the contract that the US tried to make Zelenskyy sign last week. Here are the terms that were proposed. They amounted to US economic colonisation of Ukraine. ⬇️

Someone will need to explain to me like a 5-year-old why musk and his incel goon squad need access to our private taypayer information in order to make the government more efficient. I'll wait. 🙃
