I hope people understand what we are seeing here. 1) Trump and Putin are preparing a common plan to dictate to Ukraine. 2) Ukraine will surprise them (at least Trump) by refusing. 3) The War will continue. 4) The role of Europe will be decisive.

The Nazis want a world without kindness, sympathy, pity, or empathy. We should make sure we embody all of the above in all that we do. But no quarter for Nazis.

One of my favorite people to see on Bluesky is requesting assistance. If you could help her out in any way, I'd very much appreciate it!

You won’t BELIEVE it

my girlfriend is listening to the Ezra Klein-Kara Swisher while working the rowing machine, and she is having to stop every few minutes to shriek stuff like "OH MY GOD HE JUST SAID THAT TESLA IS SUCCESSFUL BECAUSE THE CARS ARE SO GOOD"

Seeing more big accounts leave X fills me with hope. Take a stand for what is right, leave X behind.

And it begins. FBI class action lawsuit against the retaliatory purge. First Amendment Violation of Due Process Rights to Privacy www.justsecurity.org/wp-content/u...

i am going to make a movie about a girl who kills a president and all his henchmen by luring them into isolated spots seductively and then punches them in the nuts so hard they die. she is never caught.

any cable news networks covering this or nah

The most important thing I can tell everyone that I've learned from being a YouTuber who explains how stuff works is that each and every time I thought "this is common knowledge and doesn't need to be explained" I was wrong.

Not for nothing but everyone realizes that these teenagers and 20 somethings who have complete access to the Treasury payment source code are now #1 espionage recruitment targets for Russia and China, right?

NEW: Judge AliKhan blocks Trump's funding freeze (for now), ordering OMB to instruct all federal agencies that received the original memo that they must reinstate any stopped payments. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Starlink is a confidence game/soft ponzi that requires new up front contracts to bamboozle Silicon Valley VC idiots into throwing more capital into the incinerator, if the rate of growth plateaus or decreased, it's game over lol

they're openly defying the order. either haul musk and his goons into court and hold them in contempt or don't bother. this series of slow escalations isn't up to the task

this is literally the bare minimum that should be happening in a functioning democracy

When I was a Hill staffer in 2009, a Dem trifecta was trying to pass universal healthcare. In response, Senate GOP released a memo detailing all of the tactics they in the minority could use to delay the effort as much as possible. I'm recirculating that 2009 GOP memo here. Take inspiration from it.

Assuming we make it through the next couple of decades, this will be an incredible image for future historians/students of the Trump era

A week ago, Trump fired every member of the Aviation Safety Committee. Stephanie Bernstein, now former member of the committee: “I naively thought, ‘oh they’re not going to do anything in the new administration to put aviation security at risk.’ But I’m not so sure.”

So sad. Hearing it's a mass casualty event. #aviation #avgeek [TR/Airplane Crash] CRJ-700 and Helicopter midair collision on approach to runway 33 at DCA, both aircraft in the Potomac, SAR in progress www.broadcastify.com/listen/feed/...

They wanted you to believe they had an airtight plan. Resistance was futile. They were ready. The first week shows they’re same idiots with the more hubris and incompetence. Stop being afraid and get louder. Don’t believe their bullshit. We aren’t afraid of Ketamine Leon or Temu Nosferatu.

Elon on self-driving: if you think it won't get better, it's like believing that a toddler will stay a toddler forever. Elon is living proof that one can stay a toddler forever.

🚨 BREAKING: OMB has just issued a memo *rescinding* the previous memo freezing all federal financial assistance programs. Full text, per government source:

Surprised they didn’t call for celebrating the Führer’s birthday instead

The UK Anti-SLAPP Coalition has criticised the Solicitors Regulation Authority’s decision to close the complaint made by our founder @eliothiggins.bsky.social against the UK firm that represented Yevgeny Prigozhin —without taking further action. Read about the case here: antislapp.uk/2025/01/28/s...

Rhode Island folks: please light up the lines to tell Whitehouse this is not what you voted for, and that Kennedy would be a terrible choice.

Elon Musk is what happens when you create a society that believes technology can achieve anything and collective action can achieve nothing

when Marc Elias says it's time to pay attention, it's probably been time to pay attention for a while, and you're just behind the times if you're not up to speed.

To my DISABILITY COMMUNITY in the FEDERAL workforce: I know you are scared and frightened of retaliation. The stories of Federal workers being terminated for not having their reasonable accommodations met are DISGUSTING. I PLEAD for you to come forward & share info. Our country needs your voices.🙏💜

That's a big "lmao" from me www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

This is important.

Historian of fascism here. It was a Nazi salute and a very belligerent one too.

Starship is the cybertruck of the skies and I love that for it

Who is up for a short thread on the intriguing parallels between OpenAI and Enron, as told by one of Enron's investment bankers -- that is to say, me? Here goes...

I was told point blank multiple times in the last year that I was "missing something" about OpenAI and was "dead wrong" but not one of these people could say why. Not a single person has an argument as to how OpenAI will become a real business. They're all pie in the sky

Here are US sales numbers released by Ford vs. Tesla. Ford posts these numbers every month on their website: shareholder.ford.com/Investors/ne... The transparency and detail are impressive. Tesla, however, doesn’t release any numbers at all for the US. I wish they were more transparent.

The fanboy-ruled r/teslamotors subreddit is almost unanimously shitting on the Model 3 refresh, which bodes very poorly for this effort to pump the flagging sales of Tesla's most affordable model

Latest article is out in @theatlantic.bsky.social . It’s about the mistake that was made this year in arming Ukraine for a frontal assault and not giving it ranged capacity. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

This wonderful piece by @davelee.bsky.social is what convinced me that actively posting on twitter is an immoral act
