On Threads I follow a bat, a haunted campground, and the Chrysler bldg so the discourse is unhinged/frivolous and I feel more at home. :-)

I've realized I don't post here much vs Threads because of who I follow on each.
Here I follow authors, scientists, and political analysts so the discourse is almost always intelligent/ introspective & I feel intimidated/inadequate. /1
This is to answer one question so I couldn't go too deep, but I'm reccing @wolvendamien.bsky.social article: afutureworththinkingabout.com?p=6422 and Justin Brown's siliconcanals.com/sc-d-i-spent...
I hate how accurate this tweet is.
Downfall Bovino Edition. You're welcome.
Politicians gotta start calling for Miller to go. Right now.
Bovino is just the patsy - a noxious and odious fall guy. Stephen Miller is the architect and prime mover of the whole thing. Everything they do is at his direction - often after his threats. As long as he runs policy in the WH, nothing will change no matter how many Bovinos come and go.

Homeland Security doesn’t like it when we call ICE and Border Patrol “the Gestapo.”
So let’s set the Gestapo aside. Instead I’ll use this thread to compare Trump’s thugs to other secret police and terror squads from different times and places. It’s tyranny, no matter where it comes from. 1/10🧵🧵🧵🧵🧵
They’ll say ICE just needs more training, but Renee’s death came from ego and hatred unleashed in a moment of vitriol.
I’ve been following this case for several years. Finally, a judge in Milwaukee brought a grieving father’s 13-year quest for justice to a close, accepting a plea deal for two men who were criminally charged for their role in the 2012 killing of teenager Corey Stingley at a convenience store.
Yeesh I hate being repetitive, and yet...
It's time once again to remind my fellow Americans that there is no mechanism whereby state run elections can be suspended or canceled by the federal government. None. So don't go along with any garbage you hear to that effect. Laugh, and get ready to vote.

And it sucks.

katelyn’s investigation into bad actors in trans surgery is one of the most important pieces of journalism ever produced about our community. follow her and give her all your money
This sums up 2025 pretty well.
TOMORROW IS THE WINTER SOLSTICE AND Y'ALL KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS. It is time for the women (defined broadly) to hunt the Year King through the woods and tear him apart with their bare hands!
Deep breath
Ok I'm going to try and stay calm
But I'll point out that AI translation is literally causing translators to be fired (see the whole Harlequin line in France)

This is a photo of a paperback copy of The Atrocities by me (Jeremy C. Shipp). The cover features a creepy old manor house, storm clouds, and a hedge maze. The book is against a brick wall with vines growing around and over the book.
Hey Bluesky peeps, could you help spread the word?
My Shirley Jackson Award-nominated gothic fiction book THE ATROCITIES is on sale today for $1.99 on Kindle. I have no idea how long this sale will last.

You can’t tell if someone is disabled just by looking at them.
There’s no such thing as the “genuinely disabled”.
You are not entitled to a person’s entire medical history just so you can decide whether to believe them or not.
People are not faking disability, most are trying to fake being well.
The vibe shift today is, I think, due to the fact that New Yorkers were on the offensive instead of the defensive.
Usually with protests, demonstrators have to defend the space, defend their right to march, etc. They get beat up and pushed around and antagonized into chaos and trauma.

81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.
