Hi Bluesky. I’m a lawyer at a mid-sized firm who will never have clout because I refuse to conform to the norms of any in-groups except Braves and Auburn fans. I am an enemy of authoritarians wherever they are and however they lean.

One of the coolest features of the Agami Heron is its gorgeous, flowing crest that flutters as it poses and preens. But I've never seen it up close before with the details and textures.

This is Lola. She is one of the most skilled soccer dribblers we've ever seen, so it makes sense that she's already capturing footage for her documentary. 14/10

This is getting fewer headlines than it should. After coming to power promising to help working people, the president is revealing his real priorities by actively making it easier for banks to rip people off.

Let’s be clear. When the President defies the Supreme Court, it is the role of Congress to remove him from office. Full stop.

For those who aren't following, the Trump Administration is claiming that they do not have to bring back people they have wrongfully deported without due process. Essentially, once they're in el Salvador, there's nothing they can do.

Holy ****, this is bad. 1/n

Imagine being a small business with debt, that you used to import products you had manufactured in china. In the time it took to make the products, tariffs were added, that more than doubled your cost. They are crushed

Are there any states offering support for their businesses ?

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration.

So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives.

So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory
