So like 90% of us were wrong about Myles Straw and that’s actually a good thing

A radical Christian just murdered the speaker of a state house but the real worry is the theocratic muslim who said the bus should be cheaper

Seriously??

This is probably a good time to revisit Milk's military service--particularly how it ended.

Pro tip: if you, like me, find that music is one of the few things you can always count on to bring you joy when the world is turning to shit, buy an album today. Don't STREAM it. BUY it. Vinyl, mp3, whatever. And try to buy it from the band/label directly, or bandcamp if that's not an option.

The fact that some members of Lawsky are defending SCOTUS today or saying it's just procedural shit that doesn't change anything is why people don't trust lawyers to be part of the resistance.

Since it's the last Friday of June, here's my June playlist. open.spotify.com/playlist/2J6...

Everyone should sue Fox News

I would read a long read by @chasestrangio.bsky.social about the courts, the law, their limits and the work to be done beyond the courts. I fear that for a lot of Liberals the idea is that the courts are the last line of defense. I don't that's not true but am not a lawyer so people don't listen.

all of the Supreme Court’s jurisprudence about executive power - all of it - can be replaced with a simple flow chart. is the president a Republican? if so it’s ok. if not, it’s presumptively not ok.

Fascism doesn’t just fall upon a nation suddenly without warning

The degree to which the Constitution has been eviscerated by a tyrannical president, a complicit Supreme Court, and a criminally negligent Congress in just five months is unfathomable. We're, quite literally, no longer a Constitutional republic. America is subject to one man's personal rule.

So are we are just not doing “phrasing” anymore?

All people's rights under the Constitution are, per the Supreme Court, 100% alienable. If you cannot hire a lawyer and engage in effective litigation against the power of the entire executive branch of the federal government, you have no rights at all.

Snuggle break!

Wow was that fast--an immigrant advocate group already filed an amended complaint seeking class action relief in its birthright citizenship case in federal court in Maryland

Alberta: *runs massive "Alberta is calling" ad campaign to encourage workers to move there* Immigrants: Great, will do Danielle Smith: First of all, how fucking dare you

Brjxixwrq is such a beautiful name for a girl

You are under no obligation to put race science pedalling Andrew Sullivan on the TL, folks. You absolutely don't have to do this.

I need today to calmer & smoother.

She's amnesiac, amnesiac on the floor and she's dancing like she might have danced before?

Be the person your dog thinks you are.

The nose job, the lip filler, the cool sculpting … it’s too much

I say this with love, if you don't have to come here, don't, it's not safe here
