Doesn't mean I'm quitting all social media period, but decided to switch back to my trusty ol @lightphone.bsky.social for a while. Feeling too mentally attached to scrolling. I do love this device. #lightphone #dumbphone #mentalhealth #doomscrolling #lightscroll

One of the defining feelings in American life, for decades now, is elites doing plainly criminal shit and nothing at all happening as a result. It is deranging in a way that virtually nothing else is. Media fixates on perceived street lawlessness but shit like this matters much more in my opinion.
Dereliction of responsibility by the court. It is so flagrantly illegal. www.huffpost.com/entry/us-wis...

Generally speaking I dont support shutdowns. The Dems are the only party that believes in governance. But....it is past time for DRAMATIC shit stirring. The Dems need new leadership.
The terrible CR Budget bill — written by right-wing House Republicans with no input from anybody but themselves — was passed tonight with the support of 10 Democrats. An absolute failure of Democratic leadership. NOBODY in the Senate should have voted for this dangerous bill.

Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian American student at Columbia University and a US permanent resident, has been illegally detained by ICE for organizing against the US-supported genocide in Palestine. We demand Mahmoud's immediate release! www.dsausa.org/statements/o...

UPDATE—Mahmoud's attorney says they do NOT know where he is. They were first told he was sent to an ICE facility in Elizabeth, NJ. But when his 8-month-pregnant wife tried to visit him, she was told he's not there. They've received reports he may be sent as far away as Louisiana.
NEWS: Last night, the Department of Homeland Security detained a Palestinian who helped lead the Columbia encampment. Agents told him his visa was revoked. He said he had a green card. They were confused—then said that was revoked too. His attorney demanded a warrant. Agents hung up instead.

I f*cking despise John Bolton. But....yup.
John Bolton on BBC just now: "I think we are in danger not just of losing the NATO alliance [...] but practically every alliance around the world as our friends and allies look at this performance and wonder if there's anybody in this administration who understands what's at stake here."
I'm an anti-war fella. I want the war to end. But Trump wants #Zelensky to give up everything that was taken for peace. That is not the way. I am so f*ckin embarrassed to be an American.
Zelensky is a wartime leader watching his people suffer and die under Russian attacks every day. To be lectured and lied to by Trump and Vance, as they defend the war criminal dictator committing these atrocities, is unimaginable agony. An everlasting shame for America.
Republicans about to be afraid of Farmer Browngioni.
Trump did not run on the dismantling of the National Weather Service, or the National Parks, or USAID, or the CDC, or the NIH, or the NEA, or the NEH, or OSHA, or the FAA, or any other system of expertise that we all use and rely on. NO ONE CONSENTED TO THIS. Even the people who voted for him.
Are we really just going to let #Musk eventually own every major infrastructure innovation in this country? We are gonna wake up in 20 years with him having monopolies across multiple sectors and we will be powerless to do anything bc it'll be so grafted in. FUCK.
The FAA is close to canceling a $2.4 billion contract with Verizon to overhaul the communications system that serves as the backbone of the nation’s air traffic control and is awarding the work to Musk’s Starlink. Follow the money and see where it goes.
