Yes, and: itās telling that this is happening days after Steve Bannon went to prison. Bannon has been pushing the Project 2025 architects for months, and was salivating over the Chevron deference decision because in his mind it was the first step toward all this

Trump is pulling the David Duke/white supremacist strategy re: Project 2025 rn (i.e., āNo idea what that is, never heard of itā). Seems like a very Project 2025-esque thing to do!

Wow, imagine the leader of an incumbent party conceding election defeat and not even trying to question the legitimacy of the outcome. Sounds far-fetched if you ask me

I will never watch Independence Day the same way ever again after watching the latest @jonbois.bsky.social Pretty Good masterpiece. Jon provides solid evidence for a hypothesis that Devlin & Emmerich created a character just to beef with a Hollywood exec. If true, itās saltier than the Atlantic!

Also, was Judgement Night essentially essentially the value proposition for rap rock? And thus, in a roundabout way, can we blame it for Limp Bizkit?

Was reminded of the Judgement Night soundtrack today, randomly. Are movie soundtracks still a thing? In can think of, like, 10 soundtracks from 90s films that it seemed like everyone owned on CD

I just recently looked this up because I am terrified of flying! According to The Guardian, yes, over the long term, it is happening more often. But I also think there just happens to be a spate of reporting about incidents this year, too, that may not have been the case in recent years? Hard to say

It's not the big story of the day, but one thing SCOTUS has NOT ruined this year is First Amendment jurisprudence (well, at least re: free expression, and only if it doesn't involve IP...).
So I wrote about what to make of today's decision in the NetChoice cases:

STFU! Do not vent! Do not display your bravery! It's not just you! If you say dumb sh*t, anyone associated with you can be tagged with it. "Associates with violent . . . with tattoos of" = reasonable suspicion = criminal predicate for an investigation. That's how U.S. counterterrorism works.
