to counterbalance my ranting, here's some unbridled enthusiasm for PHANTOM KEYS by Nakibemebe Embaire Group & Naoyuki Uchida: a real-time dub versioning of the "polyrhythmic cascades" and ripples of "trance-inducing resonance" emanating from a colossal log xylophone played communally by 8 musicians

can't wait to fly with new Patriot Air Traffic Controllers asking grok where the planes should go
JUST IN: With air traffic control system that was straining before the shutdown, Trump urges any controllers who sicked out to quit, perhaps ahead of the upcoming holidays

d) who gives a shit about small states. if they want more representation they can attract more people or merge with other states. not my problem
the thing about this is that a) small states do not have any interests that are inherent to their size (no less than james madison understood this) b) the senate is organized along party lines which makes the small/big distinction almost irrelevant and c) the filibuster has never been used this way
Underrated aspect of killing the filibuster is making pundit hacks at Cook Political p-p-p-piss their pants

Todd Rokita is the biggest loser in all of Indiana politics and that’s pretty incredible when Diego Morales and Mike Braun exist
Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita has filed a lawsuit against Indianapolis Public Schools over its immigration policies, claiming they violate the state's anti-sanctuary law. IPS requires legal documentation before allowing federal agencies to enter its facilities.

"A T Proto", which stands for Absolute Terror Protocol
One surprising area where there’s not atproto consensus: pronouncing it “@ proto” is the most natural thing in the world and I don’t think I could make myself say “Ayy Tee Protocol” even if I wanted to
This is what IETF standardization is for right?

don't like this guy's face and demeanor. same exact look in every screenshot I've ever seen of him. i know there are substantive issues here but really I just find him visually repulsive. reptilian

i know people have said this already. but mamdani ran exactly the kind of campaign centrists say dems should (relentless focus on kitchen table issues, not focusing on national partisan divide at all); they still disapproved of him because *they* were seeing him from a pure identity politics view!
