i mean it depends, shit is not inevitable,
but we need to elect people who are NOT trying to bring us back to normal, we need to elect people who are interested in (1) punishing the wrongdoing and (2) building something new and better than the status quo ante

My next concern would be that a lack of traditional fertilizers pushes farmers to use more wastewater sludge, which will continue to add PFAs and toxic chemicals to our land and food. Understanding these connections within public health is what makes me a better candidate than my opponents.
no. really? somebody should come up with a movement of some kind to warn women about this kind of thing and advocate for their legal and economic rights, we could call it βgirlismβ or something like thatβ¦ weβll workshop it

despite extraordinarily stiff competition from the Roberts Court, Citizens United keeps its place as one of the most damaging Supreme Court decisions of all time
Itβs honestly staggering how cheap it is still in the US given how awful it is for the world but the fifth largest economy is about to take a nose dive, and I would love to see green energy seize the moment. This is the tiniest taste of what the rest of time will be like under fossil fuel rule.

The problem is, everyone Iβve spoken to in MAGAworld content creation β comms staff, influencers, whomever β knows their identity. In off-the-record conversations, people will simply tell me their name as soon as I ask the question, as theyβre familiar with the memelordβs style from interactions in the disappearing MAGA group chats. (I do have to pause for a second and acknowledge that the meme zoomers have better opsec than the senior officials who did Signalgate a year ago.) But the moment I ask if theyβd be willing to go on background about it β surely they arenβt Nazis, and shouldnβt they call out behavior in their own ranks? β sources immediately clam up. If I prod, theyβll shrug it off as everyoneβs just having fun.
So @tinanguyen.bsky.social has spent weeks trying to identify the person at DHS who posts all the racist memes, and instead uncovered a fascinating code of silence: everyone in Trump's Washington knows who it is, but refuses to say. Gift link! -> www.theverge.com/column/89298...

I think a lot about a post by someone who ran a hobby shop of some form (forget if it was a comic shop or Warhammer store or what) that basically said putting up a little rainbow flag sticker on the door was the best business decision they made because they served as That Guy repellants.
