Trump tried a seizure of power in 2021. It didn't work, because he relied only on a violent mob. The military and FBI stayed loyal to the Constitution. This time, with approval of the Republican Senate, Trump has installed anti-constitutional putschists at FBI, DoD, and Pentagon

Genuine Q for civ-mil folks: how do you reconcile civilian control of military/the president's right to choose team/"the right to be wrong", vs. avoiding hyper-politicizing the military (much less asking it to do abhorrent things)? Really asking since civ-mil folks have been eloquent on both points.

-40º is incidentally the point at which the C and F scales intersect. In other words, -40º C is the same temperature as -40º F. It's also really fucking cold to be dancing outdoors. IDK how he does it.

Fun Fact: Noah's Arc was actually a quantum computer. At 300 qubits long, 50 qubits wide, and 30 qubits tall, it had 450,000 qubits in total. That far outpaces the 1,121 qubits in IBM's Condor quantum computer.

There are two people in Congress-the chairs of the Senate & House Appropriations Committees-who have enormous power over the illegal impoundment of funds appropriated by Congress, which is sowing chaos across the US. They need to be relentlessly contacted at their offices, in person and by phone. 1/

Today is the #DayOfRemembrance commemorating Executive Order 9066 and the government's mass incarceration of Japanese Americans during WWII. Eight years ago, I wrote about visiting Manzanar, what life was like in the camp, and how the National Park Service plays a role in teaching civil rights.
