I won't quote-tweet our main character of the day, but if your complaint is that Charlie Kirk's words are being taken out of context, I'd encourage you to skim through the Media Matters tag for his name. They have hundreds of posts about Kirk and most have longer clips that give the full context.

last night as i was trying to wind down for bed i had a unified theory of what the fuck just happened, and i wrote it down, and filed it under "well, i can't talk about this on main without sounding insane until and unless the perp gets caught and is provably a groyper"

anyways, great news! (1/X)

Small but underrated part of restoring healthier civ-mil norms would be retreating from the fucking OPERATOR TACTICAL aesthetic of service members to more traditional dress uniforms, etc. in terms of public presentation, etc. People that have desk jobs should wear the desk job uniforms, for example

1/ As discussed on Friday's @openargs.bsky.social, ICE has always counted on well-meaning allies to handle a substantial portion of their psyops.

Here's what you should know about ICE "raids," and how I suggest that you talk about them as things unfold
@mattcameron.bsky.social I have no way to identify if this is something people should be terrified of or if it's an example of what you were just talking about, that it shouldn't be overblown and doing their propaganda fear work for them.

We're on the verge of a government shutdown, but let's recall the daisy chain of events that led us here.

This is not an overnight crisis. This was a slow-moving train wreck that began more than a year ago.

It starts in SPRING 2023 - Republicans leverage the debt limit to force spending cuts... 🧵
House GOP searches for new plan as government shutdown nears
Republicans revolted against a bipartisan bill, then the House rejected a party-line alternative. The shutdown deadline is hours away.

@mazeguide.bsky.social this thread might interest you.
To everyone in a similar scenario: the tactic my doctor's office has taught me is to ask, in writing, for:
1) the name, board specialty, and license number of the doctor making the determination the treatment was not medically necessary;

If Trump's first administration was stocked with Bond Villains, it seems like the second one is going with more of a Legion of Doom vibe.

Scrap quilt I did recently--mostly offcuts from quilt backings or other strip quilts. Just half-(quarter?) log cabin blocks, I played with the arrangement until I got something I liked.

the actual best thing you can do for your mental health the next 4 years is make it a point to not wake up everyday and google the president to see what shit he did while you were asleep. Stay engaged, stay aware stay alert but don't do this, it will not only not help it'll make you feel worse daily

Just listened to a strategist interviewed on Bloomberg Radio who described lower spending, no tax increase, and a reduced deficit as the "holy grail" that could "kickstart a secular bull market".

This is incredibly stupid macroeconomics and gets the analysis precisely backward. A 🧵.
