It's almost like they are criminals.

NEWS: A @lawfaremedia.org report finds that *97* Jan. 6ers who received clemency for their role in the attack were arrested, charged, or convicted of subsequent crimes—a number much higher than previously reported. Incredible work by @katherinepomps.bsky.social www.lawfaremedia.org/article/the-...

@patrickklepek.bsky.social I'm listening to the discussion you are having with rob on his temptation stream about powered shades.

Jefferies, can you please just fuck off and go work for some fortune 500 like you clearly want to. People actually want to see things get done, something you have demonstrated an unwillingness and inability to do.

For some reason Democratic leaders seem to prefer telling voters what they won’t be able to do, rather than what they’d like to do. If Hegseth ordered a war crime and lied about it, shouldn’t Ds try for impeachment? Put Rs on the spot. They might get a few defections. www.axios.com/2025/12/01/j...

It's totally fine and normal for the president to call for the death of his political enemies over their... Checks notes... Free speech explicitly protected by the constitution it is his job to uphold. Right?

So I started a new blog (it almost actually works, RSS is a WIP and I'm fighting with email sending tonight). Wrote a thing just now, because I kinda got sideswiped when a Normal Person (not a Normal Man) LLMed about me and it all feels like it bodes ill. RTs appreciated. ed3d.net/blog/posts/w...

ed3d.netWell-Intentioned ObscenityAn LLM lied about me at the office, and I'm cranky about it. That interaction makes me think a lot about how LLMs are becoming normalized, though, and what we're looking at in terms of their role in h...

Well after going to sleep pissed off at myself last night for not getting any of my TODOs done I've finished one and am working on a second now. Maybe I'll be a bit more chill tonight.

I took anthropology classes to take something a bit off beat and avoid burning out. Gave me a great perspective on sections of the world I knew nothing about.

What was your favorite early clas NOT in your eventual major. Mine was Ethnomusicology: an introduction to folk music.

So, we had the weirdest package delivery issue I've ever seen this week. An order got delivered to the local police station instead of our offices. We got a very annoyed phone call from an office person that seems to think this is somehow our fault (it is not).

It's been clear for a while but ICE is just state sponsored terrorism at this point.

Damn‼️ Federal agents blew a door off for this? Federal agents blasted their way into an LA home where Jenny Ramirez lives with her boyfriend and two kids. She heard the blast while checking on her 6-year-old, with her 1-year-old in her arms. Ramirez says everyone in the home is a U.S. citizen. 🧵

If the @democrats.org want a freebie, you should be planning active cycling protests to disrupt this birthday parade by physically blocking it. No color coordination, no stupid flags. Get out there with big signs stating exactly what trump is doing and make them make you move.

Christopher Columbus was a genocidal maniac that cut people's hands off and made them wear them as necklaces, and most founding fathers were slave owners and helped implement the trail of tears in some fashion.

No one can deny that America has done a lot of awful things - but it was clearly not founded on ideals of “genocide” but on universal rights and an open society governed by the people for the people
