Oh boy
It’s challenging to unpack the DOJ Letter because it contains so many factual, legal, and typographical errors. Indeed, even attorneys employed by the Texas Attorney General—who professes to be a political ally of the Trump Administration54 —describe the DOJ Letter as “legally[] unsound,”55 “baseless,”56 “erroneous,”57 “ham-fisted,”58 and “a mess.”59

Me watching the sunset the other day: “More like Commie-fornia, am I right?”
A picture of the California coast at sunset. Low lying cliffs with trees in the background are on the right, above a beach clouded in mist, which rises about halfway up the cliffs. The sun, setting over the water, is just offscreen to the left. The sun just above the horizon of the Pacific Ocean. A small boat can be seen just to the right of the sun.

Hey @usrepjimmypanetta.bsky.social no actually, I don’t want you working with fascists, and the fact that you want to is disgraceful
I firmly believe that the people of the United States are yearning for Democrats and Republicans to negotiate, compromise, and govern. Unfortunately, for the past nine months the Republican Majority has abdicated its legislative authorities to the executive branch. That is why Democrats will continue our fight to reclaim our Congressional power. Nevertheless, I believe that it is never too late for Republicans and Democrats to live up to our obligation to govern by working together. We must start now with negotiations to immediately reopen our federal government, protect healthcare, stop tariffs, and reduce prices. Basically, it is time for the U.S. Congress to do its job by exercising our Constitutional power.

It’s true
An excerpt from the first Bartimaeus book “My mind works on several levels at once.[1] I've been known to make pleasant small talk while framing the words of a spell and assessing various escape routes at the same time. This sort of thing regularly comes in handy. But right then I didn't need more than one cognitive level to tell me that escape was wholly out of the question. I was in big trouble. [1] Several conscious levels, that is. By and large, humans can only manage one conscious level, with a couple of more or less unconscious ones muddling along underneath. Think of it this way: I could read a book with four different stories typed one on top of the other, and take them all in with the same sweep of my eyes. The best I can do for you is footnotes.”

Share your city's awful municipal flag.

I think we nailed it actually
A flag. The top section is white, with an oddly shaped tree to the left hand side. The bottom half ob the flag is bands of color making a rainbow "the main symbol of the evergreen tree against a white background represents "reverence for nature and growth, upheld by a foundation of optimism and unity." The five bands in rainbow colors at the bottom of the flag represent the five county districts non-specifically" - https://www.crwflags.com/FOTW/flags/us-ca-sz.html

WEAKENING OUR DEMOCRATIC PROCESS A Threat to California's Landmark Election Reform * IMPORTANT VOTER INFORMATION * "California has become a national model for independent redistricting. Let's protect the integrity of our democratic process and reject the dangerous idea of mid-cycle redistricting." - Gloria Chun Hoo, President League of Women Voters of California (Source: Sacramento Bee, 7/30/25) Protect the Voters FIRST Act Keep this card - and visit VotersFIRSTAct.org before you vote. THE INDEPENDENT CITIZENS REDISTRICTING COMMISSION California's Most Important Election Reform in the Past 50 Years For decades, Sacramento politicians drew their own district boundaries behind closed doors with no public oversight - guaranteeing their reelection, denying voters a real choice, and shutting out many women and people of color from elected office. In 2010, California voters overwhelmingly approved the Voters FIRST Act for Congress - entrusting the independent, 14-member Citizens Redistricting Commission to draw California's Congressional districts. Created constitutional safeguards that require district boundaries to keep cities, counties, and local communities together. Strengthened voter protections that ban maps designed to favor incumbents or political parties. Expanded a transparent and public process for redistricting that requires all meetings are open to the public, maps are published in draft form for feedback, and commissioners must respond to public input. Enforced strict conflict-of-interest rules that bar redistricting commissioners for 10 years from running for office in districts that they have drawn. Now Politicians Want to Destroy Our Election Reforms A SPECIAL ELECTION TO TURN BACK THE CLOCK ON FAIR ELECTIONS Politicians in Sacramento are rushing to abolish the Citizens Redistricting Commission's authority over congressional districts - with plans for a statewide special election in just a few months that will cost $200 million. Their plan to strip away California's constitutional voter protections would: [...] We Cannot Save Democracy by Burning it Down in California Vote NO on Partisan Gerrymandering and Join the Coalition to Protect the Voters
