Tlönista. Shitposting merrily downward. Weird plant, cat, books lady. Sci-fi, fantasy, art, jazz, etc. Profile photo is a selfie with the bottom half of my face hilariously covered by my cat's. Banner pic is of crows in a tree.

Donald Trump's lawyers on Friday asked the judge overseeing his classified documents case to put that proceeding almost entirely on hold as they sort through whether Trump enjoys immunity from the charges based on a landmark Supreme Court ruling this week.

It’s really reached the point for me where they can kick Biden to the curb or have Biden remain in but whatever the fuck this discourse amounts to is getting increasingly gross and weird and I’m not exactly sure what it’s supposed to be doing for anyone

The distracted reader might get the impression that the core has stopped and is now spinning the other way. It isn't. It's just spinning a teeny-weeny bit slower than the rest of the planet. It is not going backwards. 🧪

This afternoon or evening, Keir Starmer, the United Kingdom’s newest prime minister, will be briefed on its nuclear war plans and then pen a new “Letter of Last Resort” to the commander of each of its four Vanguard-class SSBNs, to be opened and read only if a nuclear war destroys the country.

They don't want Biden in, as a person who used to specialize in research on this they want to prep a narrative for the fall of a technically illegitimate election. It's not a move to stop it, it's a move to delegitimize.

It’s pretty alarming how the reporters suddenly devoted to watchdogging Biden can’t tell the difference between real drastic glitches like in the debate and normal fumbling

Trump's supporters pre-Jan 6 spent months sharing blueprints for guillotines and gallows, planning chemical weapons attacks on the tunnels beneath the white house, and discussing the most painful ways to kill Pence, Pelosi, and Schiff. Trump egged them on. I personally don't want round 2.

I know 2024 has been accused of having terrible writing but having the UK election on July 4th and the US election on November 5th seems a bit on the nose.

FWIW, Bonafide Masks is having a 30% off sale right now. This is where I've gotten my Powecom KN95 masks for years now. Not a paid spokesperson, ha ha, just a customer! bonafidemasks.com/powecom-kn95/

Last I checked Powecoms are still one of the most highly rated KN95s & this is the best place to get them. They sell some colors individually wrapped if you prefer that. Good for handing out to people. (N95s protect better than KN95s but people are more likely to actually wear earloop masks.)

We’ve collected the signatures we need to end a GOP abortion ban in Arizona. Now we must get out the vote to restore reproductive freedom (and boost turnout in a key battleground state).
