That time we all joined new social networks to fill the void of exactly one social network.
Always in for piling on Newhouse.
Congressman Newhouse and the MAGA Congress continue to try to defend their Big Betrayal of a bill.
It’s literally taking from the lowest income Americans, and transfers that to the wealthiest Americans. As a person of faith, that disgusts me.

To be fair, it has felt like 50 micronations with their own laws for a LONG time.
So am I reading this court decision correctly? We now have 50 micronations with their own laws interpreting the U.S. Constitution wholly separate from one another? But there's one guy with private law enforcement who is immune from all punishment who can do whatever he wants in those 50 states?

If so, it is time to start crafting some cool-ass laws. What a time to be a state legislator or an AG in a blue state. The Supreme Court just said you no longer have a boss. It's the last day of school, Democratic state majorities and AGs! Time to abuse some power.

The left better start figuring out how to weaponize today's decision rather than just (rightfully) criticizing it.
- Go back into Judge Kaczmaryk's court to dissolve all of his nationwide orders.
- Pass gun bans and insist any order applies only to plaintiffs.

Is it…because they can’t read either? :////////
the fraction of parents reading to their 0-4 year old kids frequently has apparently fallen by 23 POINTS since 2012 www.theguardian.com/books/2025/a...
Most parents don’t enjoy reading to their children, survey suggests
Report from Nielsen and HarperCollins shows that parents see reading as a literacy skill, rather than something to encourage their children to love

It's getting lost in the chaos, but the Trump administration is attempting to end LEGAL immigration. Many of us sounded this warning years ago.
They Followed the Rules. Now Thousands of Migrants Are Told, ‘Leave.’
The Biden administration allowed 900,000 people to use an app to schedule appointments to cross the border. Emails over the last few days told them to leave or face deportation.

There is NO ethical way to use AI gen.
You are using it? Ok, but don't try to gaslight people, explaining that the way you do it, isnt problematic, hurtful and wasteful. Cause that is NOT a thing!

I'm about to use a slur as a psa.
FYI gyp/jip/gypped is a slur.
Yes the word you use to mean you got ripped off or scammed is a slur.
It comes from "gypsy " Another slur for the Romani people.
Maybe stop using it.

@joseolivarez.bsky.social let’s say you let someone borrow Promises of Gold the second you finished reading it last February, and instead of giving it back, they moved and ghosted you. Are there still first edition hardbacks out there for purchase?
