stochastic terrorism. Ultimately, the Rich are hoping for a Rwanda-style massacre, and the GOP agree to make it happen.

I obviously cannot tell Mark Carney or Canada what to do. But I can say that, based on my experience, the only way to stop bullies is to hit them back.

🟥 Blindspot for the Right: New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani has created the Mayor’s Office of Worker Power, which his administration calls the first office of its kind in the U.S.
Trump is trying to rig the 2030 Census by adding a citizenship question. This would eliminate millions of people from the official count, drastically reshaping congressional representation. He will stop at nothing to entrench Republican power.
Trump officials propose sweeping changes to the census that would reshape voting maps

Trump isn't just an old crazy ego-maniac. He’s now clearly looney-tunes, out of his head, stark-raving mad.
Trump is Totally, Utterly, and Completely Bonkers
The question is when, if, and how Congress will stop him

Today a judge granted my motion to strike a pleading filed by the opposing party, a large corporation, that repeatedly and deliberately misgendered my nonbinary client. And the judge found that opposing counsel violated the new ethics rules in Illinois. Small victories are still victories.
As Trump makes yet another soon-to-be-broken promise to put money in people's pockets, don't forget how much he's stuffing into his own.
Trump said he would send every U.S. adult $5,000 if Republicans keep Congress, but offered no immediate details on how the dividend would work. ground.news/article/trum...
Trump has promised multiple stimulus checks (have you received one?) He promised his tariffs would revive U.S. manufacturing (we've lost manufacturing jobs). He promised lower gas prices (they're higher now). He promised to keep us out of new wars (he started one with Iran). Noticing a pattern?
The GOP already controls Congress and the White House. If they actually wanted to do this, they could pass and send the dividends out tomorrow. Instead, this will be yet another example of Trump never paying people what he's promised them. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c62kzr1jg0jo

1/ August 2026 had the highest global average temperature ever recorded by Copernicus, at 62.53°F. It is considered tied with July 2023, at about 62.51°F, because the 0.01°C difference falls within the dataset’s uncertainty.
Billionaire tax cuts are a choice. Cutting healthcare is a choice. Gutting food stamps is a choice. Spending billions on an illegal war is a choice. Slapping tariffs on everything is a choice. A $5000 bribe barely offsets the pain people are feeling — and sure as hell won't erase it.

ugh. I can't get my brain to work at all today, I can't DO anything
I go back and forth on the debate about whether centrists just agree with fascists or are simply cosying up to them because they're too craven and stupid to realise this is morally evil and politically suicidal. Some, to me, appear to be in Column A and not Column B, and vice versa.
Have seen this Nature piece about the effects of X's algorithm mentioned again and it bears repeating; exposure to a right wing algorithm makes you - measurably and predictably - more right wing, even after you stop using it. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

UK politicians need to be forced to read this paper....
Hadn't seen this paper before but the way our media and political class who are still on Twitter are having their perspectives shifted rightward by a literal evil billionaire with space rockets seems so absurd that its hard to fathom.
