Steve isn’t here anymore, but he always posted this picture on Hanukkah so I thought we could carry on his tradition and remember him.
Happy Hanukkah to our friends who celebrate. Rachel Posner, a rabbi’s wife in Kiel, Germany, took this photograph in 1931 -- a potent reminder that fascism must be fought in every generation, even if it's wrapped in an American flag and a red hat.

Oh, but they do love a redemption story (sincerity optional)
She's not wrong about Trump but it's clear she hasn't quite yet realized that she is just like him.

Pretty sure the skeptics will be immune to the mass death and disease
One of the things about trust is that it is efficient. It saves you having to invest a lot of time and effort in verification, and if placed in the right places, saves you a lot of pain.
"The diseases will do the education" is what we get when we don't trust.

Excellent short thread
The AI stories about people losing their minds chatting with bots are indicators of a need to regulate these companies but also red flags that mental health is absolutely cratering and the same people who should regulate need to address this increasingly and intentionally precarious environment.

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

“15 will get you 20”
I want people to understand that in my youth, a youth that happened somewhere between the youth of Epstein, Trump, Maxwell, ex-Prince Andrew, et al & that of their victims, the term "jail bait" was framed as a compliment.

Doug Krugman is a 24-year Marine Corps veteran who chose to resign rather than participate in Trump's and Hegseth's #ForeverWars. His voice carries the weight of someone who has personally made "life and death targeting calls" in combat zones like Iraq and Afghanistan.

Take a moment to appreciate Harry Truman‘s negotiating skills. He got Hitler to surrender everything, agree to Germany’s occupation and then shoot himself in the head.

And the wasteful duplication: every county, every municipality, even a town of 5000, has to have its own force.
I don’t hate this, and I think that the obscene amount of money spent on militarizing local police forces, with small town cops walking around with four stars on their collar like they’re Patton, is nuts
I know the @thebulwark.com and @radiofreetom.bsky.social hate this, but we need to claw back $ from the police and put it to non-fascist use. Yes, we need "police" ("Bobbies", back in the colonial days), but if they are going to be agents of the Federal gov, the F them.
