No surprise that @billyraybrewton.bsky.social kept pushing for Emilia Perez, his favorite film, not just for this year but for every year, he loves it so much, won't stop talking about it, he should probably marry it, etc. You'll have to listen to see if he was successful getting it on the board.

In light of everything happening, I wrote about how the KKK in the 1920s felt unstoppable, about the people that fought against them anyway, and about how fascism always fails. dansinker.com/posts/202…

Dear Dems. This is a reminder that Donald Trump rescinded the ethics rules preventing gifts to executive branch employees. Now would be a good time to propose legislation formalizing the prevention into a law Time to do things that make him react to you. apnews.com/article/trum...

Public health teams are being gutted, imperiling work to safeguard organ donation and prevent maternal and infant death. “We are hollowing out our government in a way that is going to hurt people and is going to get people killed.” https://propub.li/4370xr2

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

"Well, everyone knows America's foundational myth is that we don't have a king. What this administration presupposes is... what if it wasn't?"

LawSky: Is it possible the purpose of Sassoon's letter is to put on the record certain facts (like the quid pro quo offered) that will lead Judge Ho to deny the Govt's request to drop the prosecution? (also, people should read the letter, a rare instance of someone standing their ground)

Watching powerless from Europe how democracy is crumbling in the US, reminds me of those movies where someone is mind-controlled by an alien or ghost. I want to yell: "America, we know you are still in there. If you can hear us, you must fight. YOU CAN DO IT. FIGHT THIS!"

Every review of AI is like: This isn’t very useful and it makes it harder to do simple tasks than if I just did it myself. Riddled with errors. Can’t see anyone using this. I feel stupider having tried this. That said I believe it will soon make human cognition redundant and eradicate us all.

Elon musk isn’t elected. He’s a Nazi nepo baby who breaks everything he touches. And right now he’s locked himself in a room with grandpa’s Social Security check.

Indivisible is urging people to visit their senators' local offices between now and Thursday to demand that they use every tool—including denying a quorum and blocking unanimous consent—to fight the confirmation of Project 2025 architect Russell Vought for head of OMB docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Yes. While there are absolutely things Democrats can and must do to slow, obstruct, etc, GOP hold both House and Senate majorities, severely limiting our options. Johnson and Thune are handing over the own keys and relinquishing their own power. Even for the cynics this should be a shock.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare. Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.” We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽

I have nuked my Twitter account. Tell your buds they can find me here for linkage to shit.

The trailer for The Dead Thing has dropped!!! I'm so unbelievably proud of this entire team! Giant props go to @elrickane.bsky.social who knocked it out of the park. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6CwP...

For the people in the back…

This coulda been our president-elect tonight America but you chose authoritarianism instead
