who would have thought that the ketamine addled maniac nazi and his gooner squad would lie?

I appreciate everyone’s messages of support, I’m trying to get through all my mentions but as you can imagine, it’s been a bit of a busy day :) Remember - peaceful civil disobedience, and no kings, no tyrants. Not ever.

Like if Trump ordered Murkowardly and Collins to execute their own children, they would hem and haw about how concerned they were. Then they would pull the fucking trigger. Every. Time.

from “Parable of the Talents” by Octavia Butler

Now this is a fucking metaphor A University’s Top Lawyer Is Behind a Bill to Weaken Tenure. The University Had No Idea. www.chronicle.com/article/a-un...

RIP Stu’s hair

I would bet all the money in my bank account versus all the money in your bank account that they have no intention of complying with this order

How much you wanna bet they don't fucking do this? It's a coup. Those are not lawful or orderly. This is an overthrow of the government, not a change in policy

This seems like a logical response to the past few weeks music.apple.com/us/album/yea...

So sayeth my University president. People out here while Rome burns listening to fiddle styling

Orwell something something something

the death penalty is not about, and has never been about, punishing crime it is about reminding people there exist circumstances where the state will just fucking kill you

Under fascism, no one is safe. Universities stayed quiet as the admin targeted DEI & foreign aid, censored research, etc. Now, they face devastating cuts to indirect cost rates, threatening research & operations. Silence won’t protect institutions. It won’t protect people; it never does.

It is in fact the darkest fucking timeline

When are we going to finally abolish Christianity? They are child murderers. They shoot abortion doctors. They overthrow our government on the orders of "God." They start genocides in the name of "salvation."

Why are you confirming anyone?!? Wrenches in the gears folks! Wrenches in the gears!

I do think that the Democratic response this time is gonna actually drive me to do something stupid. Before I hoped they were just fucking dumb, now I know they are in on it

Oooooo. They sent a letter! Folks they sent a letter! This is like the French Cavalry putting on blue and red uniforms and charging towards machine gun nests in August 1914 and proclaiming that if only the Kaiser fought fair like a gentleman...

If only there was a government agency in charge of investigating this and one in charge of prosecuting it

When the response to "how fucked are we?" is that nobody can price that low...its a shitton or fuckload of fucked. thanks @jvl.bsky.social for really freaking me out this evening.

and yet...it seems like they dgaf. 200 courts could say what they are doing is illegal and order them to stop, but until we show up with the people to stop them, they are going to keep acting. People who dont believe in the law are not going to comply with it

Prove to me that they will comply with those orders and I will throw myself off a bridge right NOW

How tf is MSNBC so completely ignorant of the world outside the the West Wing - they got the Biden call wrong, got the election call wrong, and now they are ignoring a constitutional crisis so Trump can brag about a deal where he got nothing and gave everything. Real through the looking glass shit.

So the choking government in a bathtub metaphor wasn't a metaphor? cool

We should definitely wait two years to do anything. What a feckless sack

So can we all admit that the Phantom Menace plot is not ridiculous now
