Budde did the right thing. She confronted them head on, level headed but passionate. She said what everyone around trump should be saying.

She broke the illusion.

And trump wants her to apologize for it.
It's tempting to be cynical about calls on Trump to do better, but there are not a ton of people modeling resistance right now, and I think we'd do better expressing support rather than scoffing. www.everythingishorrible.net/p/pritzker-a...

Now what?

Will we stand back and hope normalcy returns?

Or will we resist the new normal?

You don't have to decide now, but you'll have to soon.

You may feel like your actions don't matter, but together they do; you are not alone.

"This is unconstitutional," I scream as the facial recognition equipped robot dogs drag me to my cell.

"This goes against everything America stands for!" I shout, as the algorithmic sentencing machine condemns me to death.

"This is not who we are!" I remind the firing squad of child soldiers

We need a right to free press. Our free press is behind a paywall
it’s becoming increasingly clear the goal of the far right is to defund and buy up every source of reliable information until there is no more objective reality to counter them

Hold the phone, I've been busy and this map is incorrect.

The map you are seeing comes from 2021, it was made by a youtuber name CGP Grey. While I don't believe they ment to misinform, the map has been in question since its first post. Studies even from 2022 show wildly different results.

You mean we're in late game?

I'll see myself out
We're trapped in a game of Monopoly where oligarchs own all the property and the rest of us are simply making our way around the board trying to avoid financial ruin.

They've also bought the bank and the government, so they can change the rules to their liking.

It's game over or time for a reset.

I have some big news!

Today was my last day at King Features.

I was offered a choice between a very reduced role and a severance package, and I took it as a sign that it’s time for me to try new things! I have been there for 16 years!

I’ll be looking for new opportunities for 2025.

For real tho, especially if you didn't do anything
It is not in fact classist to tell people to never talk to cops without a lawyer ffs. Pro bono and sliding scale lawyers like me exist and even if you don't have one, demand the public defender. There are exactly zero good reasons to talk to the cops without a lawyer. Zero.

Everyone should try to research where they can, and reason when they can't.
The important part is to research the opposition when you find something you oppose. You rather solidify your beliefs, or recognize you are wrong. It's your responsibility to change your own mind. No one can do it for you.

Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy have proposed a strategy that would allow companies to bypass environmental regulations by having the government simply choose not to enforce its own rules. They suggest that a potential Trump administration could “immediately pause the enforcement” 1/3
