One big problem facing us as we could choose to move into a post #scarcity world (i.e. we could do it tomorrow if we wanted) is lots of #wealth hoarders who agree w/ #MrPotter. I'm not sanguine about enough #JimmyStewart types popping up to save us.

Corporate “personhood” was never meant to serve as a constitutional doctrine for political rights.

The Constitution was written for people — living, breathing citizens — not artificial entities.

Black people and women fit this description and should have been included.

In the 1800s, courts treated corporations as “artificial persons” to:
• own property
• enter contracts
• sue and be sued
• be held liable

1st to reverse in the Supreme Court is that artificial personhood includes free speech.
Next? Corporations don’t have to answer anything per 5th amendment?

Sex trafficking on Meta platforms was both difficult to report and widely tolerated. Instagram’s former head of safety testified that when she joined Meta in 2020 she was shocked to learn the company had a “17x” strike policy for accounts that engaged in the “trafficking of humans for sex.”
7 Allegations Against Meta in Newly Unsealed Filings
Court filings allege Meta tolerated sex trafficking, hid harms to teens, and prioritized growth over user safety for years.

Housing or trees? Science says "why not both?"

We need housing. We also needs trees. Our new study across western Washington finds gaining housing at the expense of trees is not inevitable.

THREAD: Judge Ellis is the first federal judge to review extensive body cam video of DHS's actions in Chicago. She finds that DHS *repeatedly* misled the public and made claims that were disproven by agents' own videos.

The #Republican #Trump #MAGA admin is letting child abusers run wild. It's par for the course, since that's how they acted on #Epstein until forced to deal with it.

Heroic agents are working on #CSAM cases on nights & weekends (likely unpaid) to try to save #children.

@timmiller.bsky.social is correct that normal people are #NIMBY & we need to work to bring them to #YIMBY.

We can't just blow off "the #traffic" though. We need to tax #wealth & build #transit with it, specifically serving the new #housing.

Make traffic better, then build #apartments.

The way the #Epstein #emails are going I'd say we're less than a week away from finding out #Trump asked his buddy #Jeffrey to find girls who resembled pre-teen #Ivanka to spend time with in low light settings. Including instructions about what name to answer to & what to call him. Thoughts, #MAGA?
November 13, 2025 at 1:22 AM
Like sure, #Trump should #resign. But the people who may actually resign are EVERY Trump #appointee. If they believe in any of the things they've spent years saying they believe, that is.

The whole #Cabinet should resign, every deputy, every assistant, EVERYONE. How 'bout it, #MAGA?
