No, you don’t get to give up. You don’t get to do that. None of us do.

Remembering the run-up to the 2003 war with Iraq, which involved serious-looking people solemnly making a case to Congress, to the UN, to the public. They were lying through their teeth, but they felt it was necessary to take time and put on the show. Now, no run-up, just a tweet. It's disorienting.

I'm pretty sure Kamala Harris wouldn't be bombing us into an illegal war right now

Not the biggest issue right now, but Dutch continues to not be a serious language

This is not about the merits of Iran’s nuclear program. No president has the authority to bomb another country that does not pose an imminent threat to the US without the approval of Congress. This is an unambiguous impeachable offense.

It's understandable we all mostly take it as a given that Trump doesn't bother to adhere to Constitution or the laws passed by Congress, but it is still both (a) absolutely necessary for our democracy and (b) good political strategy for Dems to file articles of impeachment over this.

okay and here is my ‘sounds like a shitpost but it’s genuine’ UK heatwave tip: if there is a Saxon or Norman church near you, and it’s open, go sit in it. not gothic, they have too many windows, get you some thick stone walls with some high up tiny windows. they stay cold. and you can just sit there

An extremely salient difference between Israel’s war in Gaza and its war on Iran is that U.S. weapons are convenient for the former but absolutely essential for the latter. The US has far more leverage on Israel now than it had three months ago

I would encourage republicans to run against the idea of public holidays

So I was giving a work presentation over Teams (buncha fucking bullshit) and, at the beginning, I noted that it was a holiday and wished everyone a Happy Juneteenth. One person laughed derisively. Guess the age, race, and gender of this person.

Essential food assistance is under attack in the Republicans' budget bill, and we cannot allow them to take away food from vulnerable seniors and children just so they can rig the tax code to help big corporations and the rich. www.wkow.com/news/senator...

Hey @bsky.app @support.bsky.team love you folks but I have a request. Gen z is trying to cancel Mictecacihuātl the aztec god of the dead and ruler of Mictlan, the lowest level of the underworld. Perhaps a tweak of the algorithm is in order. Thanks.

I hear that people who've never so much as heard of Bluesky are signing up just for the privilege of blocking him.
