Vance is insecure about lots of things. 😝

Suddenly Vance is unable to attend this time. “Security reasons.”

Putting out an a list of books for Autism Acceptance month for @blog.readindiefantasy.com (yes I know I'm late lol) if you're an autistic indie or self-pubbed author with a SFF book, link it here and I'll try to include it!

Maine boasts the highest percentage of forest land in the US and understands that sustainable forestry is central to protecting our precious land and water resources and economic prosperity. It’s vital therefore that Sen Collins stop the Trump Admin from ravaging our US Forest Service #MEpolitics

lol -- Trump is sending JD Vance on another humiliation tour in Pakistan

I've never seen someone look less confident saying what they are supposed to say.

Never heard anyone in my entire life say this except him. Seems to be a case of "local shlub sees academic journal for the first time in his life & encounters an academic term." Beshear can go stand in the corner with the rest of the whining involved population

Translation: Putin’s orders, we just work here 🤷🏼

Wild how Tapper just swallows their excuse without any follow up and completely fails to put it in the context of Trump doing literally everything Putin wants always.

A total failure. Americans who watch these shows come away further from the truth

This isn’t efficiency or modernization. This is the dismantling of a 120-year-old agency done illegally, done deliberately, and done fast enough that most people won’t notice until it’s too late.

The Palentir statement on its desired “Technological Republic” is one of the scariest things I have seen in a while. It is a call for a world dominated by an authoritarian U.S., generated by AI (both the statement and the world), run by tech-surveillance companies. Technofascism pure!

Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social — we’ll bet you $100 Trump never “gets back” to those Russian sanctions. How long are you gonna let this regime gaslight you on national TV?

I consistently repeat to folks that they do not in fact ever *succeed* on their own. Sometimes the assistance is visible, often it is submerged. None of the USian billionaires *succeeded* on their own. In fact, most of them continue to benefit from your money, labor, etc....

Stop New York's Attack on 3D Printing New York's proposed 2026-2027 budget currently includes provisions that will require all 3D printers sold in the state to run print-blocking censorware—software that surveils every print for

Trump’s Iran lies boil down to two possibilities:

1. A blatant pump-and-dump scheme to enrich his inner circle.
2. He’s completely lost his grip on reality.

Federal crime or mental collapse — take your pick. Both are a disaster.

Going to a formal event that celebrates Freedom of the Press where some of the other guests don’t understand the importance of the 1st Amendment?
