if you watch the clip from this week of the now-former press secretary on hannity you can see that the administration did in fact still televise an execution

back at it for day 2, 2-0 start today for an 8-3 overall record 🖤

I've been offering hot-takes on each of my talks, but boy howdy, loving this one with GDAC at UC Davis:

if Trump posts a trans slur on Truth Social which is aimed at you, and you say anything other than "can you guys fucking believe the President of the United States is out here posting trans slurs on Truth Social, fuck him into the sun for all eternity," you have failed the most basic of all tests

I keep seeing this Semafor graph that seems to show the Trump administration’s effect on international visits is comparable to the pandemic. My first thought was “that can’t be true” and indeed it is not. This is monthly data. We only have to Jun/Aug 2026. The lines are over-fitted to the months.

this is fantastic and I learned something new

O hey Reminder that in (homophobic) '94 as Dookie was blowing up, Green Day picked queercore Pansy Division to open for them + a lot of venues pressured them to drop them as openers -- Green Day told the venues they wouldn't play if PD didn't - and the venues (mostly? all?) backed down. huh.

Democratic strategists: Ahhh! What's the right message!!?? Where do we moderate!?!? Jon Ossoff: This administration is horrible. I hate these people. We should put them in jail. I'm pissed Voters: This guy is cool Strategists: I can't figure it out!!!!!

can those of you mad because you think trans whining on microblogs will depress support for dem politicians please imagine for one second how dem politicians spouting transphobia on enormous mainstream platforms depresses support for trans people

Exceptionally disappointed with my former employer @1password.bsky.social funding the niche Arch fork passion project of an actively genocidal lunatic.

sometimes, you know, you should be judged Today I found out my password manager betrayed me. No, not like that - it didn't leak my bank account login to the Uzbek mafia or anything nearly that drama...

movie recommendation for the holiday weekend: The Sheep Detectives!!! a film that answers the question “what if we made a Knives Out movie but with sheep?”

Happy Zero Cool Day to all who celebrate #hackers

Yeah, more people need to realize good error messages are both very hard and very important

I’m telling you this as a political scientist. The person who is electable is the one who is elected. This can and does change over time. Any and all speculation about “electability” is either puffery or anxiety and is often both.

One way to be safe is to never write an electability take

being a billionaire and on the internet all day is crazy to me. if i had even five million dollars, you would not find me online whatsoever.

The thing about someone ‘improperly receiving benefits’ is I don’t care. Oh no did someone get food or health care? Good!

Either everyone's human rights are safe or no one's are. The problem with fascism is not that we're not the ones doing it, the problem with it is that it harms people and that is immoral, unethical, the foundational sin of this blood soaked nation.

So there’s a famously pugilistic poster on here (who has me blocked) who said, essentially, that character doesn’t matter when choosing to vote. Only policy. And I think that is just fundamentally backwards and, ultimately, the reason why the online left keeps falling for lying grifters. (Thread)
