The argument in the text is they can’t accomplish their policy goal while following due process (and therefore the standards should flex). That’s a general purpose argument for fascism, not one specific to immigration.

My husband has taught human reproduction and development to the Cambridge medics for over three decades. When people start banging on about "only two biological sexes" he starts with "which sex: genetic, hormonal, or gonadal"? Biological sex is not binary. www.scientificamerican.com/article/sex-...

IF NONE OF US IS PREPARED TO DIE FOR FREEDOM, THEN ALL OF US WILL DIE UNDER TYRANNY.

1. LLM-generated code tries to run code from online software packages. Which is normal but 2. The packages don’t exist. Which would normally cause an error but 3. Nefarious people have made malware under the package names that LLMs make up most often. So 4. Now the LLM code points to malware.

anyone who is acting like the US and el salvadore simply accidently deported the wrong people and can’t find them is lying because they don’t want to admit they rather like that fascistic deporting of political enemies into death camps is essentially legal now

Correct , the fascists are incrementally moving towards the end goal, which is the disappearance of any person who goes against them,to do that they will have to test the waters a bit less each time. they will target Americans that have done heinous acts to normalize citizens to the new social norm.

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work. snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

Murphy: "It's not designed as economic policy. It's designed as political policy. Because Trump gets really excited when people have to come to him, petition the king for relief. That's what he's doing with law firms, doing with universities. That may be what he's doing with businesses."

Target buys its T-shirts from China where they cost $2 each.🇨🇳 A T-shirt made in America costs $10.🇺🇸 Trump’s tariff means the T-shirt from China now costs $3. Will Target now buy from America instead? All that happens is YOU pay more. Its. A. Consumer. Tax.

video games aren't political! *your switch 2 costs a suspicious amount of money due to recent bizarre developments in international politics*

On Transgender Day of Visibility, we celebrate Minnesota’s transgender community and recommit to standing up for our neighbors in the face of hatred. As your Governor, I’m proud to stand in this fight with you.

Is it just me or are BLADE reports gone #XenobladeChroniclesX

Cool we're North Korea now

my number one gaming hot take is that you, the reader, should play xenoblade. any xenoblade.

I don’t know how to fall asleep. It’s something I’ve managed to do almost every night of my life, but I always forget what I did that worked so well the night before.

I think it's important to remember, with everything extremely fucked up and dumb right now, that at the root of it, fuck fuck fucking fucking fuck.

“We’ve almost fully switched sides here” — Mark Kelly

🚨 Texas House Rep. Brent Money has introduced the first total ban on gender affirming care for all trans people in Texas. This is an unequivocal ban affecting all trans people by removing amending the existing ban on trans youth to apply to adults as well. capitol.texas.gov/tlodocs/89R/...

This is probably the most accurate take.

i will never cop for the new era of large language model gen ai. but the old era of advanced curated markov chain gen ai, such as drilbot, was very good. and nobody did it like Deep Leffen

I got the funny domain handle

i just cannot get over how much the administration’s response to the crash shows a profound disrespect for the lives of the people they are supposed to serve

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last. Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

I do think it’s super important right now and in the foreseeable future to really value moments of joy and to be intentional about making as many of them as you can

Trump’s anti-trans Executive Order is bad BUT it technically defines everyone as female. It states: “'Female' means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell." Since all fetuses "at conception" are female, Trump just defined EVERYONE as female.

Today and in the coming days, remember

I wonder which message will resonate more

Hello Bluesky. I don't know if I'll use this platform quite yet (still partial to Mastodon), so I'm just reserving my name
