That's beautiful. Thanks for sharing

this is like

the thesis statement of our times

i'm reminded today of the old irish proverb: may you live your life so you're not onstage speaking to a large audience while unaware that you just got fired via social media

Michael points out that a rise in students registered as disabled doesn't equate to a rise in accommodations & that's true but also who cares? Disabled people have long hesitated to ask for what we need because we fear retribution. If more kids are seeking the support they need, that's a good thing.

but dunkins has to prove it's safe. got it. that makes sense.

the kind of thing that gets played at a war crimes trial

If you’re tailgating me on a 2-lane highway when I’m 7th in a line of cars traveling the same speed and no ability to pass, I need you to know that you’re almost entirely responsible for the decline of American civilization

Trump doesn’t owe us an explanation, he owes us jail time. This mealy mouthed nonsense is why nobody trusts democrats to ever genuinely meet the threat

Screenshot of a tweet from x.com by Senator Dave McCormick that reads: Now would be a good time for Democrats to drop their opposition to DHS funding and pass the bill to support our homeland security. Continuing to play political games with our national security given the unfolding situation in the Middle East is dangerous.

Boy, does this make me think of Justice Jackson’s Youngstown concurrence, in which he warns of the danger of a president unilaterally initiating a war, and then using that war as a bootstrap to claim extraordinary powers at home.

legacy media insists on the perpetuating the fiction that donald trump actually holds any core beliefs beyond personal enrichment and aggrandizement rather than simply being willing to spout any lie that he thinks will serve him in the moment and that's part of the reason we are where we are

Everything ICE says is a lie.

congress sounds cool i wish it was real

if we've learned anything from history it's that unnecessary regime change wars in the middle east always turn out fine, so i'm sure this is all fine and a lot of iranians and american troops won't die for absolutely nothing

i've been yelling for YEARS that having principles & fighting for them is not pie-in-the-sky idealism, it is smart politics! i was constantly scolded by status quo "realists" that candidates would be punished for being "too liberal," but now i have numbers to prove my point bsky.app/profile/gell...

Another day, another analysis proving @davekronig.bsky.social right, yet again, that the average voter largely doesn’t care about platform as long as the candidate comes from Team Fight. I’m *still* mad about the DNC leadership we could have had and what that could have meant for the party.

I am begging Democrats to learn the lesson that you can get shit done while also being a principled progressive--perhaps BECAUSE of being a principled progressive. Bullies don't respect capitulation, they respect strength.

As noted, Rosen asserted in his email that "[t]he lawyers in my civil division didn't deserve" the supposedly inaccurate January 28 order. Putting aside the fact that the January 28 order was not inaccurate, Rosen failed to mention that this Court said the following in the show-cause order that preceded the January 28 order: The Court expresses its appreciation to attorney Ana Voss and her colleagues [in the civil division], who have struggled mightily to ensure that respondents comply with court orders despite the fact that respondents have failed to provide them with adequate resources. ECF No. 7 at 2 n.1. The judges of this District have been extraordinarily patient with the government attorneys, recognizing that they have been put in an impossible position by Rosen and his superiors in the Department of Justice (leading many of those attorneys- including, unfortunately, Ana Voss- to resign). What those attorneys "didn't deserve" was the Administration sending 3000 ICE agents to Minnesota to detain people without making any provision for handling the hundreds of lawsuits that were sure to follow.

If anything is "beyond the pale," it is ICE's continued violation of the orders of this Court. Increasingly, this Court has had to resort to using the threat of civil contempt to force ICE to comply with orders. The Court is not aware of another occasion in the history of the United States in which a federal court has had to threaten contempt -again and again and again - to force the United States government to comply with court orders. -5- CASE 0:26-cv-00107-PJS-DLM Doc. 12 Filed 02/26/26 Page 6 of 6 This Court will continue to do whatever is required to protect the rule of law, including, if necessary, moving to the use of criminal contempt. One way or another, ICE will comply with this Court's orders. Dated: February 26, 2026 (s/ Patrick J. Schiltz Patrick J. Schiltz, Chief Judge United States District Court

BREAKING: Judge Patrick Schiltz in Minnesota threatens criminal contempt, if necessary, to address ICE noncompliance in an order calling out U.S. Attorney Daniel Rosen's response to Schiltz's earlier questions about noncompliance with court orders.

"ICE will comply with this Court's orders."

We’re on day 4 of no power. It’s coming back on in some parts of town & there is a huge presence of crews working around the clock, but at least half of the town is still without power. People without generators are reporting temps inside their houses have dropped into the 30s. This is rough, y’all.

Years ago, I had a dream in which I was asked “is it chestnuts or dreams you keep in your chest?” and I’ve been puzzling on that since 2018.

They found him. He died.

Another murder by our immigration goon squads

democrats should internalize that this is what their colleagues think of them and act accordingly

We also of course have no internet, and cellular data comes and goes. Being so disconnected is extraordinarily isolating and disconcerting in ways I couldn’t have understood before. Feels like we are fully on our own

An alert this afternoon from my town’s police chief said the town is 100% without power & we still have no estimates as to when it will be restored. People are soon going to really be suffering. I’ve been fortunate through my life not to experience this before & I gotta say it’s really fucking scary

noise pollution causing actual real physical health problems in humans is one of those things that sounds fake but isn’t

This is my first time too. I’m hooked up to municipal gas so I hope indefinitely, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Stay safe!

More than 149,000 Eversource customers on Cape Cod were without power as of 1 p.m. Monday during a blizzard expected to last until early Tuesday. The total outages jumped from around 106,000 at 9 a.m. Monday. Of the Cape's 15 towns, Provincetown, Truro and Wellfleet — the Cape's outermost towns — were 99% or completely without power. Just south, Eastham was 98% without power, and neighboring Orleans was 95% without power. Towns with at least 70% of customers with no power also included Barnstable, Bourne, Brewster, Chatham, Dennis, Falmouth, Harwich, Mashpee and Yarmouth.

Well, we are well and truly fucked. I’ve never seen numbers like that—95-100% of entire towns without power. I have a generator so I’m safe for now, but this is going to be rough, and I don’t think I’m totally bonkers to worry that Trump will withhold aid from a blue state. archive.is/pJhQH

oh well I’m thoroughly fucked

Counterpoint: No.

ICE doesn’t need reform. Abolition and prosecution is the bare minimum.

The floor plan for the planned ICE concentration camp in Social Circle, Georgia:

Screenshot of text: Eversource: Blizzard conditions expected. Damaging winds and snow could damage electric system and cause widespread and extended outages. Hazardous conditions may delay our ability to safely respond. Based on current forecast, restoration could take 3-5 days. See storm center: eversource.com

when the power company is preemptively texting to say “sorry babe, you’re fucked,” that doesn’t seem great
