Yurt-dwelling gay-married climate collapse-obsessed metalhead farmer living in the PNW. Somehow I still have love in my heart, along with all the fear and loathing. He/him.

“Last week, DeSantis issued an executive order temporarily staying the execution and requiring that Thompson be evaluated by a panel of three psychiatrists to determine whether he is competent to be executed.”

I'm still catching up on the aftermath of Christa Pike's execution ordeal but I really appreciated this piece by @keribla.bsky.social, which provides key context and analysis on botched executions, with myriad examples from recent and not-so-recent years. (Do people remember Angel Diaz? I do...)

My report

Andrea Grimes@andreagrimes.com

Ken Paxton has launched a snitch line to gather reports of supposed violations of Texas' transphobic bathroom policing law. Please do not abuse this snitch line. Please do not fill it with faff and nonsense. Please do not attach huge, unwieldy and irrelevant documentation to any reports.

The one year anniversary of Yoon's failed martial law takeover just passed and lots of untold stories came out proving that THE ONLY REASON KOREA IS STILL A FREE COUNTRY IS BECAUSE PEOPLE DISOBEYED ILLEGAL ORDERS. The coup was over in hours because people said no.

I guess my biggest question (beyond the obvious moral revulsion) is: do these people actually still not understand the amount of access to information we have in 2025, with the means to disseminate it in seconds? Burn this shit to the ground.

Replying to @taliajane.bsky.social

that’s why we’re seeing widespread harassment campaigns to get people fired. not because people “celebrated violence” but because they were not sufficiently compliant in following the messaging established by fascists.

Every time I see Trump claim vast powers over economic policy that the Constitution does not give him, often only for the Supreme Court to step in and go 'seems legit,' I can't help but think about the Court carrying on as if canceling some student loan debt was shocking executive overreach

Vox@vox.com

In a trio of cases, two currently pending before the Supreme Court and one that is likely to land on the justices’ doorstep as soon as Tuesday, President Donald Trump claims new powers that, if he prevails, would give him near-total control over all US fiscal and monetary policy.

It is not possible to communicate the sheer fullness and depth of loathing I feel for the people who are shitting AI into every corner of our lives. Thought I wanted to search for the lyrics to a song I heard in a movie, but Sam Altman knows that what I really wanted was to burn some more jungle.

He proposes releasing some ICE prisoners to labor on farms where the employers will “own them” and be responsible for them. Historians have spent decades meticulously proving the straight line between slavery and modern capitalism’s concept of the laborer—or we could just let them say it.

Step and fetch@fetchstep.bsky.social

The camp is to filter out workers for Trumps new Slavery policy where he sells them to businesses. He says so in this video Make Americans Slaves Again

NASA is being told to cancel 19 *active* missions to save $6B, which looks to be less than the ICE *hiring/retention* budget going forward. I need people to let that sentence sink into their bones for a minute.

Aaron Reichlin-Melnick@reichlinmelnick.bsky.social

If the GOP reconciliation bill passes, ICE gets through FY2029: - $45 billion for detention, on top of the current annual budget of $3.4 billion - $14.4 billion for transportation and removal, on top of the current annual budget of $750 million - $8 billion for hiring/retention - Billions more.

I cannot fathom the kind of soul rot necessary for a person to be capable of this kind of action. People who feel called to join ICE truly are abominations of the human species.

ICE waited until a woman’s lawyer went to the restroom then dragged her away. She fainted from stress and they dragged her unconscious body into the elevator, refusing medical attention.

Was in a Zoom meeting with someone and saw an AI "copilot" had joined us and when I asked about it the other person in the meeting said it was their boss

Reminder that words matter. You can’t “deport” a US citizen. You might be kidnapping, disappearing, exiling, expelling, illegally removing, etc., but you’re not “deporting” a US citizen.

A new study from the RAND Corporation finds that $79 TRILLION was taken from the bottom 90% of the country. America’s problem is not a lack of “abundance.” America’s problem is oligarchs hoarding the abundance for themselves while everyone else suffers. www.levernews.com/abundance-is...

The final episode of Yellowjackets will end with older Shauna on the death plane, with younger Shauna in the next seat over chiding her for being a wimp about it or something, and then she’s like ‘ok I guess I made my bed and now I’m gonna die in it’….she’ll also have sacrificed herself for Callie.

If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

"The American antisemitism now merges with the Russian antisemitism and reinforces it. The idea that Zelens'kyi is not a real president, and that his government is therefore not a real government, has been a very specific Russian antisemitic trope from the beginning."

If you're wondering about the vibe in Canada right now, I just got served this ad for a brewhouse that is just a portrait of the White House being burned down. No text, just a bigass picture of the White House burning and a link directly to their menu lolol
