That Vance is a direct line to Thiel and Andreessen is truly important. Trump wants their money. Thiel wants to sell billions in Palantir contracts to power Trump’s mass surveillance/ethnic cleansing infrastructure. Pence was the Christian Nationalists’ guy. Vance is reactionary capital’s.

Are you a fan of all of those guys who are directly responsible for making the internet an unusable dogshit hellhole? Well boy do I have a VP for you.

Hey so…we are in the middle of a far right coup and the far right is telling you they are going to continue and if we try to stop them they will resort to open violence.This is cartoonish and people need to push these fascist now. Not tomorrow not next week we need massive protests and direct action

I’m kind of surprised where my inter library loan for Gangsters of Capitalism by @katzonearth.bsky.social came in from.

I continue to believe that all Presidents should be shipped in handcuffs to the Hague for war crimes investigations as soon as their term is over.

Moderates and liberals mostly seem to follow politics like sports. It’s why so many of them have just responded to the lawless SCOTUS term with “I can’t believe that! Someone should do something.” They then will do nothing.

I am amazed at the random shit my dad kept. Old computer chips, manuals for devices we haven’t owned in decades, NASA stuff haphazardly stuff into envelopes. No rhyme or reason to most of it.

Donald Sutherland, Star of ‘M*A*S*H’ and Much More, Dies at 88www.nytimes.com Never anyone’s idea of a heartthrob, he had a chameleonlike ability to be endearing in one role, menacing in another and just plain odd in a third.

Therapy tomorrow should be real fun given the lingering sadness from my dad dying earlier this year and us having to put one of our dogs down Friday. 🤮

if you think this is definitely going to be held unconstitutional, please note that in 2019 the Supreme Court held that a giant cross on public land did not violate the Constitution

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Louisiana becomes the first state to require that the Ten Commandments be displayed in public school classrooms.

These people are going to make me an angry edgy atheist again. Fuck all of them. I’m sure Alabama will try and follow.

Governor Jeff Landry of Louisiana: “If you want to respect the rule of law,” he said, “you’ve got to start from the original law giver, which was Moses.”

Louisiana Requires Ten Commandments to Be Displayed in Every Public Classroomwww.nytimes.com A law signed by Gov. Jeff Landry on Wednesday makes the state the only one with such a mandate. Critics have vowed to mount a constitutional challenge.
