The really bitter irony here is that SCOTUS is making the president a king while a Democrat is president. They aren't worried about it because they know Democrats won't accept Biden actually acting the way they are saying he can.

PSA! Two sweet doves fledged into the world from a perch on my back porch. Within hours a neighbor's outdoor cat snatched one from (safety) the bushes. Argh!! 💔 Please, please, PLEASE reconsider having an outdoor cat. They are decimating domestic birds - for NO good reason. (Terribly true photo.)

Not only arrested for "hacking" an open website but had his entire workplace seized so he's functionally been unable to work for nine months, with his office held hostage by the FBI and six figures in legal bills going up and up and up.

How the f–– do federal prosecutors charge someone for “hacking” what’s publicly available? What next, tossing some of us in jail for using a raw resource address to download some Twitter video in, like, 2015?

For people now looking to leave Substack, I only have good things to say about my Buttondown experience so far. Almost worth it just to experience what superb customer service is like in the year of our lord 2023.

@sepinwall.bsky.social a substack alternative:

Fwiw I got out during the first big Substack exodus - in the time since, Ghost has added tons of newsletter features & their onboarding processes are more streamlined than ever. Excellent customer support, and they don't funnel a percentage of my earnings to villains. 10/10 strongly recommend
