Hey @joshtpm.bsky.social, I was hoping you’d weigh in on this, since you’re known for working with hand tools (and have recently made barstools, no less!)

Another case of the skeets are prose (or in this case art photos), but the alt texts are poetry.

It's unsettling how many people fell for the claim that an administration that hires open Nazi sympathizers and does a bunch of Nazi-like stuff is "fighting antisemitism."

Some want to believe, agreeing with the regime's anti-free-speech and anti-academic freedom goals. But some just fell for it.

This is sobering but precise.

From Ludlow to Haymarket to Flint, the 20th Century gave us the 40-hour week, discretionary income and ultimately the American middle class. We will accept the slide back into subsistence poverty or we will have to fight the 20th Century all over again.
Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%

Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%

Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.

As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

As the Senate tries to defend a million dollar payday to 8 of their own - and as the House GOP tries to explain why they refused to amend the CR to strip it out, let's review exactly what it is they want restitution for. Brief thread:

And it’s happening again right now with AI, it’s just as obvious, and the only question is the timing.
One of the main reasons I’m *like this* politically was reading left wing publications in 2006 explain what was about to happen in great detail and then watching it happen live over the next couple years
After an economic crash you always see headlines like What Was Everyone Thinking? What do you mean everyone, most of us are waving our arms and screaming every day, it's a handful of insanely rich assholes who aren't listening

Imagine trying to convince someone a decade ago that this sentence would be a 100% literally accurate description of the American political situation.
The attorney general and the FBI director, a manosphere podcaster bro, pulled into the situation room a member of Congress best known for getting kicked out of a Beetlejuice musical for drunkenly giving her date a handy, in order to pressure her about the president's child sex trafficking scandal.

BREAKING: At Pope Leo XIV’s urging, U.S. Catholic bishops just delivered the strongest rebuke of a sitting president in Church history — condemning Trump-Vance raids as “inhumane” and “dehumanizing” in a 216–5 vote.
NEW: At Pope Leo’s Urging, Bishops Issue Historic Rebuke of Trump’s Raids
Nearly all U.S. Catholic bishops united in Baltimore to denounce the Trump administration’s “inhumane” deportation campaign — a near-unanimous, unprecedented moral stand against a sitting president.

Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.

So much work remains to be done.

Ghislaine Maxwell lied about Trump never going to Epstein's house (directly contradicted by her email correspondence with Epstein), and she was rewarded for that lie with a transfer to a cushier prison. The coverup is happening in plain sight.

Mike Johnson pretty clearly put out a call to the caucus to get someone to change their position on this so he could swear in Grijalva. It's the most transparent coverup in living memory.

And it's THREE YEARS after the disastrous deal from Alex Acosta. They are discussing their personal knowledge in context where they think they are immune from further prosecution. This isn't an "allegation"; this is an admission by co-conspirators.
Devin, I don't think many non-lawyers understand just how "yeah, that underlying fact's 100% true" it is when you have a private email between two parties with no reason to lie discussing the implications of something they agree is a fact they both have personal knowledge of.
