democracy is when 30% of the people vote for a fascist and cheer on as the government terrorizes the other 70%

fanfic site but it's people writing constitutions for countries who waited so long between updates that the whole damn thing shit the bed

Oh would ya look at that. USAID was investigating Starlink contracts in Ukraine. gizmodo.com/elon-musks-e...

A personal project of mine is a weather app that uses NOAA among other sources. It wasn't loading this morning, and I was about to make a joke that Elon was at NOAA breaking their systems. I thought better of it, but...

The CIA and FBI are evil organizations responsible for incomprehensible misery domestically and abroad and if they can’t deploy some of that evil to save their own skins one wonders what the point of it all was

BREAKING: A federal judge has blocked President Trump's executive order forcibly to detransition trans women inmates and transfer them to men's prisons, citing the 8th amendment prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment.

The first congressperson who gets arrested trying to stop Elon Musk is the 2028 front-runner.

We are members of Congress at the Treasury Department. We want to be let in to provide oversight on behalf of our constituents. @jasmineforus.bsky.social @sethmagaziner.bsky.social

China said Tuesday it would slap 10 percent tariffs on imports from the US of crude oil, agricultural machinery, large-displacement vehicles and pickup trucks. In full: https://buff.ly/3EqIgL9

I want a site that's just mirrors of every otherwise-cool person's substack, and charges for subscriptions, and just gives it all directly to the writers

Neither the mainstream press nor our political system seem to have digested the fact that the U.S. president is trying to illegally annex a NATO ally using economic coercion.

In Taiwan, years back, some civic hackers created the Gov0 campaign (or g0v) in which they got the domain name g0v.tw (it's a zero in the middle) and created alternatives to every gov website of what they would do if they were in charge. Anyone could see the plans by replacing the o with the 0.

This isn't a political party. This is a bunch of buffoons with insider trading privileges

So the richest man on Earth buys the office of the president via a social media site acquisition, then forcibly takes over the Treasury at the exact same time as enormous tariffs are announced on our most significant trade partners. Is he just gonna redirect it all into his own accounts?

Control of the entire federal purse is being stolen in the middle of the night by a Nazi. There has never been anything like this.

i think an important thing for people outside the US to understand is that elon musk seized control of the government today and most americans don’t even realize it happened.

There are a lot of things I love about having a dog. Getting my ass outside a few times a day for a walk no matter what is pretty far up that list

Fuck this and all of the institutions caving in with not even a hint of a fight.

Both of my senators, @bennet.senate.gov and Hickenlooper, voted for this worm.

i think it is important to say that the open and explicit racism of the president and the vice president isn’t just uncouth or “controversial” but a direct attack on tens of millions of americans and a dereliction of their duty to represent the entire country

#OtD 28 Jan 1918 hundreds of thousands of workers went on general strike against war in Berlin, and across the country in the next few days 4 million took to the streets. It was repressed but later that year revolution broke out and ended WWI shop.workingclasshistory.com/...

Amazing to me how whenever another country advances tech Americans think they own, their reaction is always "wow, *those* people surpassed us?"

It's all the hyper-rich care about. Otherwise they'd have retired billions of dollars ago. The one thing they can't buy is someone truly caring for them, so instead of changing their hearts they convince themselves that caring doesn't even exist. All that's left is domination.

Truly, primary every single Democrat who supports the MAGA agenda. Incomprehensible. Also ask them why they hate dogs.
