Schism

I haven't used Twitter since 2020. Even if everyone immigrated over here, all my followers have forgotten I exist. I'm actually screaming into the void! Neat

It doesn't take a professional to see it www.alternet.org/alternet-exc...

tired: SignalGate @wired.com: The Signal clone, TeleMessage—which Mike Waltz appeared to use in a Reuters photo—has been hacked. And Customs and Border Protection also confirmed it used TeleMessage. Welp.

Ron Ziegler’s notorious “All previous statements are inoperative” line can now rest in peace.

What fool would make a plan like that?

I'm legitimately scared to fly with this becoming a predictable occurrence kdvr.com/news/local/p...

There have been over 800 children marriages in my state since 2000?! I feel ill. www.keloland.com/keloland-com...

No fights are the wrong fight to pick. Pick every fight. Fight these fascist fuckers every time about everything. Fight them even when they aren't fighting. If they run away, chase them and keep fighting them until they beg to stop and then fight even harder.

One nice thing about being a free person, or the operator of a free press, is you don’t have to consult—much less “obey”—a goddam book of presidential proclamations to learn what words, geographic or otherwise, are permissible to use. Any government encroachment on that freedom ought to be fought.

Lots of things to take away here. Most interesting is tesla does suspiciously well in Chinese courts. "Like wining every hand at a casino." nypost.com/2025/02/13/b...

My VPN works

The CFPB is one of the American people’s best defenses against waste, fraud, and abuse. Demolishing it will, of course, lead to more waste, fraud, and abuse.

my view is that as soon as the administration froze disbursement of congressional appropriations we entered constitutional crisis territory

The SAVE Act is systemic misogyny. It would disenfranchise tens of millions of women--those who changed their name after marriage but don't have either a birth certificate or a passport with their new legal name.

Can someone dox all the J6 rioters that have been pardoned. I think maybe antifa would like a word with them

Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

SCOOP: The US Treasury claimed a DOGE's Marco Elez didn’t have ‘write access,’ when he actually did. Sources tell WIRED that his ability to alter code controlling trillions in federal spending was rescinded, days after officials said it didn't exist.

Donald Trump... ✅ Boots FAA chief ✅ Freezes hiring of already short-handed air traffic control personnel ✅ Offers to “buyout” federal workers ✅ Guts key aviation security advisory group And when one of our busiest airports is understaffed he has the nerve to blame wokeness?

I thought it would take longer than two weeks for us to become a third-world country.

Donald trump probably got 67 people killed and has the nerve to blame the air traffic controller. I can't imagine the guilt they must feel without POTUS pilling on. Trump can actually rot in hell.

um

@kellybclancy.bsky.social playing with reality is one of the most thought provoking books I've read in recent memory. Truly remarkable

Are Americans too genetically inferior to work in high-tech? The owner and CEO of X thinks so.

Feels like now is a good time to remind folks that Trump literally stole money from kids with cancer. www.forbes.com/sites/danale...

your tired, your poor (in health)

Anyone wanna ask the Philippines how state sponsored vigilantes went?

It's really starting to feel like America is setting up a real-life trolley problem experiment

Tag yourself.

Randomly remembered this galaxy brain take

Me: I will just relax for a few minutes by playing a mindless game on my phone Phone: Cool, every 90 seconds you will just need to watch a little animated snuff film featuring a mother and child freezing to death, or a king slowly being crushed against a spiky wall by piles of falling rubble

Breaking: Seeking an end-run around the unavailability of the death penalty in New York, state prosecutors in the Luigi Mangione case seek to impose a sentence on him of UnitedHealthcare coverage.

“Have Yourself A Merriam Little Christmas” Merriam, a career-oriented lexicographer from the city, returns to her small town for the holidays and meets Webster, a ruggedly handsome librarian, who shows her the true DEFINITION of Christmas. Hit us up @hallmarkchannel.bsky.social @netflix.com 🙏

this changes everything

@paulisci.bsky.social so you're why my library still has microfiche

Chuck Schumer should immediately announce Democrats will accede to Trump's wishes here and do away with the Electoral College once and for all. Here's that bipartisan push the pundits are looking for. Let's go!

Not surprised, just disappointed

Trump continues legally dubious grift to settle his outstanding legal bills. Here's an idea, why doesn't someone sue every single time his Corp so much as breaths. Even if it's losing cases waste his legal teams money on it and widen the hole he's in. www.forbes.com/sites/tylerr...

This is so rude. He's just a little guy
