Oscar Isaac is open to returning to Star Wars but “not so open to working with Disney”
“I mean, I’d be open to it, although right now I’m not so open to working with Disney. But if they can kinda figure it out and, you know, not succumb to fascism, that would be great”

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

PEPPER SPRAY CAN KILL A BABY
This story now includes video, released by the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights, of the baby being exposed to chemical irritants fired by federal agents from their convoy into the car she was riding in with members of her family near 26th Street and Ogden Avenue in Cicero.
Federal officials accused someone of firing shots at agents conducting an aggressive immigration raid led by Border Patrol chief Greg Bovino through Little Village Saturday. No one was injured.
Agents used chemical agents to disperse the crowd, @sigchofor25.bsky.social said.

Nuremburg trials is the moderate position
He said that the agents would throw food at them to eat. The agents threatened to withhold food for a week and to beat him up if he didn't sign deportation papers. He said he saw others refuse and get beaten/receive no food. He signed because he was afraid.

ALSO if you have a lil shop, drop it here! ESPECIALLY if SNAP issues or shutdowns are hurting your household!
It kills me to see fiber artists who wildly undervalue their work, but it’s even worse when that work isn’t selling! If you’re looking to give handmade Christmas gifts (not by me), drop me a DM of the kind of thing you’re looking for and I can help you find a small artist to support!

I’ll keep pushing this line of analysis because I’m increasingly convinced the clearest path out of this mess is for Dems to adopt a relentless anti-corruption, anti-inequality, anti-oligarchy, pro-democracy platform. The Dem leadership hasn’t realized it yet, but they’re now a reform party.

"Hope is not blind optimism or uncritical belief in a political savior. Hope, to me, means the ability to imagine a better world is possible and then work to build it brick by brick. It is, as @prisonculture.bsky.social says, not an emotion but a discipline—one we must practice every single day."

Wait this is so cool. I can't believe I hasn't heard of them before
![The Wide Awakes were a youth organization and later a paramilitary organization cultivated by the Republican Party during the 1860 presidential election in the United States. Using popular social events, an ethos of competitive fraternity, and even promotional comic books, the organization introduced many to political participation and proclaimed itself as the newfound voice of younger voters. The structured militant Wide Awakes appealed to a generation which had been profoundly shaken by the partisan instability in the 1850s, and offered young northerners a much-needed political identity.[1]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2q5bmos7izvoe4phqdnslpj7/bafkreicv43tj6zmkufyrwzkd77mfcem5mqgwfuwt5a5sutqr47tdcltygm@jpeg)

When the challenge is currently rehumanizing humans and they want us to humanize the code instead
I do think having a human-shaped servant with no rights or interioriority is going to do bad things to the human psyche and ability to live with other people, which isn't exactly particularly resilient to begin with, y'know?
