Song of the Week - "Nazi" (live version) by Chumbawamba

"What radicalized you??"

Uh... nothing? I don't think my desires for good governance are at all radical.

Protecting the rights of people who aren't white Christian men? That's not radical, that's ensuring the preamble to the fucking Declaration of Independence.
Today I learned Gaiman was accused of... a lot of things

(out of the loop, soz, not paying attention to pop culture stuff)

Today I learned that TERFs absolutely loathe him, especially JKR

(apparently also old news, but at least I knew she's a TERF)

I'm assuming there will be court stuff next?

Worth keeping an eye on this story: Heritage Foundation-linked group is trying to frame Netflix as being some super liberal company that puts out super liberal content (it's not).

Same strategy they successfully used against traditional media and social media.

between the winter, Russia, and US Government ambivalence, Ukraine is losing their fight for freedom
Call your reps and tell them to sell patriot missiles to Ukraine immediately or else

Under the radar but Utah packed their Supreme Court this weekend by adding 2 justices bc the gop has been losing decisions at their SC.

Democrats need to learn from gop example and pack scotus when they have a trifecta.

Jared Kushner unveiled the Trump administration’s vision for Gaza they’re calling “New Gaza.” What it actually is: theft of the Palestinian homeland while Palestinians are still dying in it.

To be more precise, the Russia connection entangles Trump, Melania, Epstein, Musk and Thiel and many others in their immediate entourage... it's one of the things bringing them all together.

Why does it seem like Cat Peach is superior to any other NPC in Mario Kart 8, at least with team games

She goes hard in grand prix racing. In battles she's a reliable ally or an implacable enemy.

Epstein worked for mossad, Russia and the Cia. And maybe other countries too. He obtained blackmail materials on the rich and powerful. That's the piece still missing. All of our ABC agencies knew what he was doing and were ok with it. He was recruited by Bill Barr's dad.

"Internet websites add 3 new terms to the lexicon each year" statistic actually incorrect. The average website adds 0 terms to the lexicon. Tumblrs Georg, who stole the President's shoelaces and coins 10,000 terms each day, is an outlier and should not be counted

I’m *extremely concerned* about the way folks are reforming their image of the cops in light of everything that’s happening, even though we only have a handful examples of them disagreeing with ICE, while still being responsible themselves for the murders of Black and brown people across the country

Modern tech is inhospitable to the kind of stubborn bullshit-despising hackers that for generations used that laziness and spite to get shit done.

It shouldn't be lost on anyone that quite a few of the rich tech people saying "its fine for AI to groom children" literally exchanged emails with Jeffrey Epstein

Every single billionaire is a ticking time bomb, able to make whatever fucked up interest they have into everyone else's problem for the next quarter century with the singleminded devotion that only an essentially infinite wad of cash allows.

You know, in retrospect, the fact that the GOP is nationally the party of "Maybe child marriage is okay?" should have probably warned us about all this Epstein stuff.

Call you lawmakers in VA #Virginia #GunLaws
Virginia Legislators Are Writing Gun Laws They Don’t Understand
— And Virginians Must Speak Up Now Last week, members of the Liberal Gun Club DMV chapter traveled to Richmond to meet with Virginia legislators and attend committee meetings on proposed firearms legislation. We expected disagreement. We did not expect to witness lawmakers openly misunderstanding — or misrepresenting — the very bills they are asking Virginians to live under. What we saw should concern every Virginian, regardless of where they fall on the political spectrum. This Is Not How Responsible Lawmaking Works In multiple committee sessions, Democratic legislators advanced sweeping gun control bills while demonstrating a troubling lack of familiarity with their own language, implications, and constitutional consequences. A few examples stand out: SB 749 (Assault Weapons Ban): During committee discussion, a senator cited the killing of Alex Pretti as justification for banning commonly owned firearms — despite acknowledging that no “assault weapon” was involved. Blaming a victim of state violence to justify stripping rights from law-abiding Virginians is not only intellectually dishonest, it is morally indefensible. SB 323 (Home-Built Firearms Ban): The bill’s chief patron appeared unaware that his own legislation includes an exception allowing law enforcement officers to possess the very firearms it would prohibit civilians from owning. When questioned, he deferred explanation to a gun-control advocacy group representative. Legislators should understand their bills before presenting them — not outsource explanations to lobbyists mid-committee. SB 643 (Firearm Purchaser Licensing & Data Collection): Senators showed confusion over what personally identifiable information would be required and how it would be stored. Suggestions to use CAC, PIV, or USID cards reflect a dangerous misunderstanding of privacy, data security, and federal data systems. At a time when Americans are increasingly alarmed about government misuse of personal data, this should be a flashing red warning sign. These are not minor drafting errors. They are indicators of rushed, poorly vetted legislation with real consequences for civil liberties, privacy, and taxpayer dollars. Virginia Has Bigger Problems — And Better Ways to Address Them Let’s be clear: violence, suicide, and community safety are real issues. But poorly written gun laws that target lawful ownership do not meaningfully address them. Every dollar spent enforcing ineffective or unconstitutional firearms legislation is a dollar not spent on: Community mental health services Education and youth intervention Substance-use treatment Suicide prevention Economic stability and “deaths of despair” Virginia does not need symbolic legislation designed to signal virtue. It needs competent, evidence-based policymaking that addresses root causes without eroding fundamental rights. This Is the Moment to Act — Politely, Firmly, and Persistently If you live in the Commonwealth of Virginia, now is the time to contact your elected officials. Not to shout. Not to threaten. Not to posture. But to hold them accountable. We urge Virginians to: Call your state senator and delegate Email their offices with specific concerns Request meetings — virtual or in-person Attend town halls and committee sessions Ask direct questions about the bills they are sponsoring Tell them: You expect legislators to understand the laws they write You oppose legislation that infringes on constitutional rights You want taxpayer resources directed toward proven solutions You expect privacy, due process, and data security to be taken seriously Well-intentioned lawmakers can still cause harm when they legislate carelessly. Silence from constituents makes that harm easier. Protecting Rights Is Not a Partisan Act The Liberal Gun Club exists because civil liberties do not belong to one party. Gun ownership, privacy, and due process are not right-wing values or left-wing values — they are American values. Virginia legislators need to hear, clearly and repeatedly, that: Rights are not bargaining chips Ignorance is not acceptable And symbolic politics is not leadership If we want better laws, we must demand better lawmakers — starting now. Contact your representatives. Demand competence. Demand accountability. Demand better priorities for Virginia. If you live in the Commonwealth of Virginia, now is the time to contact your elected officials.
