I write things sometimes. Other times I poke holes in people.
I don’t know what the Hudsucker Proxy is and at this point I’m too afraid to ask

It took the Nazis one month, three weeks, two days, eight hours, and 40 minutes to dismantle a constitutional republic.

When the fire starts to burn, every good person better be ready to man a post with a bucket of water if you want to stop it from raging out of control.

Reminder, as DOGE style program slashing appears in state houses and treasuries in all 50 states, the highest paid state job in most states is FOOTBALL COACH followed closely by BASKETBALL COACH at public universities.

We just want to say that we are in awe of all of you. You are the ones history will remember—a resistance rising against tyranny. From the moment Trump took office, laws have been broken left and right. We shouted from the rooftops, and it took relentless effort just to have our voices heard.

ICE is contracting for an online monitor.

The hire will scan for past online activity, explicitly including social media, that speaks about ICE "negatively", then look for "signs of violence" including pictures of weapons, threatening language or "empathy with groups with violent tendencies"

ALTMAN, on Musk:

“.. I wish he would just compete by building a better product. .. Probably his whole life is from a position of insecurity, I feel for the guy... I don't think he's, like, a happy person.”

The DEI caused the plane crash narrative is a distraction. The tariffs are a distraction. Whatever insane nonsense Trump spews that the media will chase like cats chasing a laser light is a distraction. The only story that counts right now is the wholesale hijacking of control of the US government.

To say that the violence Trump seeks to inflict is *performative* is not to say that it is not real, or that it does not have catastrophic consequences.

Rather, it is to point out that his chief goal is to terrorize, to demoralize.

Therefore, refusing to be cowed materially thwarts his strategy.
The Case for Resistance
In this analysis, we explore what to expect from Donald Trump's second term and how we can prepare to confront it.

If you're being forced out of the military on account of your gender as a result of Trump's return to power, we invite you to enlist in the real struggle for freedom. This is more honorable than fighting on behalf of those who hate you—and it's a fight that we cannot avoid.

Trans people in Illinois prepare for the Trump years
Illinois has aggressively pursued trans rights, but many people are still working to protect their health and safety under Trump

I shall die, but that is all that I shall do for Death;
I am not on his payroll.

I will not tell him the whereabouts of my friends
nor of my enemies either.
I will not map him the route to any man’s door.
Am I a spy in the land of the living,
that I should deliver men to Death?

One of the things we have access to at the university is GIS (Geographic Information Systems) which are used to create data maps. Someone made one that maps out the most used areas on campus for crying and rated them on comfort and privacy. Research is wild…

I know people are upset about the list of EOs that 47 signed, but because most of these will take months, if not years, to implement (not to mention the legal battles ahead) he’s basically given us a roadmap of what we need to be defending/attacking. Just my thought on it
