Barack Obama just delivered a blistering rebuke of Trump's actions against Ilhan Omar. This is worth reading in full.
This is 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨fascism. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
Rep. Ilhan Omar’s lawyers say authorities ignored judge’s restrictions on home search
In a letter obtained by The Washington Post, attorneys for the Minnesota Democrat condemned a Justice Department inquiry into her immigration history as a politically motivated attack.

And Tommy slunk out of that room in shame because although he hadn’t changed his perverse religious bigotry, he heard not just the candidate but the entire crowd champion the Constitution’s freedom of religion. And that scared him. MAKE BIGOTS SCARED AGAIN.
since California ballots are now out: prop 40 is the billionaire tax, and you should vote yes to stick it to them but both props 41 and 42 are designed to retroactively cancel the billionaire tax because they’re afraid they can’t beat it at the ballot box yes on 40, no on 41 and 42
SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.

I'm typically not one for the "act like merchandise art collaged from key-art assets means anything in relation to the movie" guy; but it *is* pretty obvious (even if you didn't know about it) that Marvel dropping their in-house visual dept last year was a bad call.

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.
If most dems had spines they could absolutely dog walk everyone disingenuously asking about "boys in girls sports" just like this

This is part is why I never buy Rockstar games. They’re ALWAYS a union-busting, crunch-happy developer that’s unrelentingly exploitative to their employees. Despicable.
United Videogame Workers-CWA@videogameworkers.bsky.social · 2d agoAbsolutely repugnant behavior.
It’s taking a long time for people to wake up to the fact that these platforms are not public forums but privately owned companies with terrible agendas and total control. If you lay down with these dogs…
The Hollywood Reporter@thr.com · 2d agoTikTok “Permanently Suspends” the ‘Musk’ Film Account, Raising Suppression Fears (Exclusive)
I started a TikTok account and just scrolled a default feed, and it included a very steady mix of Charlie Kirk and Clavicular and Christian influencer clips, so I know this "no politics rule" stuff is absolute bullshit
This is not beautiful to see. This is the most racist democracy on planet earth, and people just expect Black people to sing negro spirituals and "overcome." It's not working. This still happens for one reason and one reason only: white US folk don't hold each other accountable for this racism.
BeshearStan@beshearstan.bsky.social · 3d agoThis is just beautiful to see
It's almost as if it's not a good idea to rely on pieces of defence and communications infrastructure that are in the hands of one of the most morally depraved and emotionally unstable wretches ever to walk the earth

Book 20 of 2026 - Boudoirs to Brothels, Michael Rutter. An amusingly and colorfully written historical account of several of the most well-known sex workers of the wild west. Fascinating history, sometimes dark, sometimes funny, always eloquently presented and fascinating.
No joke. I think this is the most important video I have ever seen about mobile games. This guy breaks down how this game psychologically profiles you, and makes the game harder or easier in order to show you ads
This is a random thought, but one that I think is important given the ongoing discourse around the Cornell case and the state of our country: Men, it's genuinely really important you don't put the burden of learning how to be better friends, partners and allies to women ON women.
If Second Wind were to have a website component focused on original written columns from a variety of different authors... is that something you would be interested in and potentially pay to subscribe for?
Shinobi602@shinobi602.bsky.social · 7d agoBloomberg: Epic Games is going all in on AI as an unannounced shooter featuring Marvel & Star Wars characters is implementing an "AI first" production model "generated with full AI workflows". "No more hand-written code", said one of the directors to staff. ➡️ www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
When democrats win big and we have branches of government willing and able to stand against the Trump regime’s tyranny, we need trials and consequences. Omg, do we need trials and consequences.
Bend the Arc: Jewish Action@bendthearc.bsky.social · 7d agoAppalling. Weaponizing the state to target a political opponent, weeks before an election, is nothing but a authoritarian tactic by a desperate administration. We wish we could say we were surprised, but this is textbook fascist behavior. Our Jewish community stands with @repilhan.bsky.social
