Shit like this is why people give up and stop voting. All of this misery, all of this pain...just to cave? Insane.

That didn't take long. Received my first mailer against the CA redistricting initiative today, before the state senate even voted on it. Paid for by Charles Munger, of course, because he's very concerned about having the voice of the common person protected against overreaching elites.

I feel so bad for the creatives on this show. Season 1 was a SMASH, but season 2 didn't drop for 2 whole years. Streamers have to realize this is not sustainable. These 18 month - 2 year gaps between seasons kills audiences' enthusiasm no matter how much they love it.

You can't go to/file in federal court just because you want to. The overwhelming majority of cases, both civil and criminal, are litigated in #statecourts. #legalsky
What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders?
Author advances are paid *against royalties* and you have to earn out - make more than your advance - in order to get royalties
In other words, an advance is actually a loan, they aren't REALLY paying you at all

Almost all of the bugs and problems and breakage in the software you use is known to the engineers, we just aren't allowed to fix it. Gotta ship new features.

This was genuinely a good book. Juliet Parrish was one of the first female sci-fi heroes I was exposed to, and she was more interesting in this book than in the miniseries. Which I also liked very much.

My partner's company manufactures in China, Mexico, Taiwan, and Vietnam. So he may not have a job soon. Yeah, this is great for "America."
(No, they can't just manufacture in the US - nobody would pay the amount their product would have to cost to continue as a viable business.) #tariffs #disaster

Senate Democrats: This is the time for bravery, for leadership. Do NOT cave. Do NOT make a dumb deal like allowing meaningless votes on amendments that won't pass. This is THEIR mess. We need you to stand up. This is why we elected you.

Re-upping this again as more people read about the Khalil case. More information to come, but nothing in WP and NYT so far contradicts original reporting. Again, it DOES NOT MATTER what you think about him or his cause. Either government is bound by the law for all of us or we're all at their mercy.
Reminder: When a person or institution you hate is targeted for illiberal persecution by an aspiring authoritarian, you have to defend them EVEN IF you don't like them. It doesn't matter if you don't like campus protestors or Columbia or the law firms. We must defend them or we're all at risk next.

Bullshit. It was an IV, you can see the tape outlines. And who gets a bruise on the back of their hands from shaking hands? Was he shaking with King Kong?
Not just a lie, but a blatant, dumb lie.

White House says that a large bruise on Trump’s hand is from 'shaking hands all day every day'
The bruise on the back of the president’s right hand was visible during his visit with French President Emmanuel Macron at the White House on Monday.

Dear my Congressman @congressmin.bsky.social, why can I book a plane ticket, make an appointment with my eyebrow lady, or schedule a Pilates class online, but just to make an appointment with SSA I have to wait on hold for 120+ minutes? Can't we figure out a way to do online appointments? #help

Not everyone can fight Trumpism and Trumpists directly. But remember this: kindness, decency, and fidelity to American values are defiance in the face of Trumpism.
So be kind, decent, and faithful, particularly to the many kinds of people despised and attacked by Trumpists. That’s revolutionary./1
