Spent most of the #CapeFear finale screaming at my tv for someone like literally anyone to pick up a shotgun and kill Max Cady but the entire family have the survival instincts of a fart.

Secret courts...I hate that history is repeating itself.

The Trump administration is testing a secretive, never-before-used deportation court for alleged alien terrorists with a case concerning the Afghan mother of a convicted terrorist, with the Justice Department accusing the Texas-based woman of having ISIS sympathies. https://cnn.it/3U385sg

Am watching The Polygamist and Jonasi looks a lot like RuPaul out of drag. It’s really throwing off.

Yes, that National Guard are still in DC for some reason and they’re numbers are set to increase.

NPR@npr.org · 2mo ago

A new study has found that the National Guard's presence in Washington, D.C. had no effect on violent crime in the city. The Guard has been deployed since last August as part of a federal task force to fight crime, and their numbers are set to double in the coming weeks. n.pr/3PWDxqK

Black Mirror literally had an episode warning against this. It wasn’t an instruction manual!

A lobbyist who worked directly for Peter Mandelson, on the Palantir board, and on the board of *four* NHS trusts. Lobbying the NHS to hand over even more patient data to Palantir. This absolutely stinks. Get Palantir out of the NHS. Sign my petition: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...

#Industry has some of the best writing on television. The last scene of the latest episode was so anxiety producing in the best way possible. God I love this show!

DAMN!!! I have always loved her work. Just an absolute acting legend. RIP

US, can we all get on board with this??? Take a day off if you can. Let’s make this hit as hard as possible!!! If we keep expanding and adding more days, we’re building momentum toward a general strike.

I knew someone who worked at Palantir and she knew 10+ years ago how evil the company was but liked the money and stayed there for many years. These folks know who they work for. They’re looking for a redemption arc which can only happen if they start to blow the whistle.

Great thread on what the resistance in Minnesota looks like

Margaret Killjoy@margaret.bsky.social · 7mo ago

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

🚨The Petition calling for by-elections to be called automatically when MPs defect to another party is now closing on 77,000 signatures! Let’s get it to the 100,000 needed! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73...

Went to my local shop for NYE snacks and they already have their Easter chocolate out. 🤮 it’s not even 2026 yet, damn!

Still in Betwixmas and catching up on films. Finally watched Sinners last night. Amazing film that deserves all its accolades. Ryan Coogler is the goat. Watched Goodbye June tonight and really loved it. A great Christmas family drama. Definitely a must see.

I just uploaded @jasonparis.bsky.social 's recording of the segment CBS News pulled from "60 Minutes" to YouTube:

Gave out my first passive aggressive Merry Christmas to a rude woman in the shop. Yup, I’m officially an auntie.

Am I the only one confused why Angel doesn’t have movers to help pack up her stuff? As much as she talks about money, it just seems like something she’d have especially moving with three small children. Odd. #RHOP

Interesting that the NHS survived COVID but 5 years later the service will “collapse” because of a severe flu season. Almost like the government didn’t invest in this vital service after the height of a pandemic.

It’s been two weeks since ICE took Yuanxin Zheng from his father. He is six years old. He’s still not home. This has to end.

Got a Christmas tree this morning and the little one insisted that we decorate it this morning. This the season!

Releasing the Epstein files days before Christmas is going to be interesting…

Wow: the Trump administration is for the first time ever designating four "Antifa" groups as Foreign Terrorist Organizations. This is a big step. Until now, they had only pursued a domestic terrorist org designation, which has less teeth than FTO.
