Stumbled in here for some sense of sanity, safety, and sensibility.
Wait, I thought “labubu” was a cutesy term for a lobotomy…
“The infrastructure for digital authoritarianism is being built right now, and Palantir is playing a central role.” Also, I have 0 empathy for anyone who electively worked for Peter f-ing Thiel.

Wow. This is major news. Judges discuss moving the U.S. marshals from the executive to the judicial branch. Not only would they protect judges from trump threats, but it would also make it easier for courts to order marshals to carry out court orders.

Start every day with this reality: EVERY HOUSE SEAT and 33 Senate seats are up for election in 2026. THAT must be the focus. Let’s get disciplined. #LeaveNoPowerOnTheTable ballotpedia.org/United_State...

Sharing this as a reminder to myself to read later. But, yea, it’s the working class vs. the ultra rich and the unreliable institutions that have mostly just dangled carrots. Let’s not forget that.
Jared Yates Sexton@jysexton.bsky.social · 2y agoThe wealthy have intentionally destroyed class consciousness so that they can exploit the vast majority of people. If we’re going to fight back and ultimately win this class war, it’s time we got familiar with how our politics actually work. jaredyatessexton.substack.com/p/a-thorough...
David Frum discussing what happened on Morning Joe: "It is a very ominous thing if our leading forums for discussion of public affairs are already feeling the chill of intimidation and responding with efforts to appease." www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

I know I’m new around here, but my gut tells me to take this advice:
rahaeli@rahaeli.bsky.social · 2y agoYet another plea to people who are using or following people off follow-farming hashtags like #NoDemUnder1K, #NoDemUnder5K, #BlueCrew, #FBR, etc etc: please do not do that, it's how disinformation operations work.

There are no guardrails. The institutions aren’t going to save you. Revealing who these people are doesn’t matter. And here’s why: for all of the handwringing over norms or decency, this is about power. Full stop. It’s time to leave these notions behind and get serious.
It's impossible to maintain a constant hypervigilance across the entire spectrum of threats. Hypervigilance will exhaust you and make you sick. Solidarity and real community helps. Be intentional with how you communicate with friends about breaking news. Don't be afraid to make requests.
K since we’re not gonna be getting one single raggedy thing from the govt anymore, I suppose it’s fine to stop paying my taxes now.

I was just listening to NPR and one of the topics was how Gen Z is “moving to the right”. They had people calling in pontificating as to why that might be with two young Republicans also there for commentary. In my mind, I am screaming. Gen Z is not moving to the right.
