All of the moral, ethical, and human rights issues aside, it seems as though many people fail to understand the extent to which a fully-implemented Project 2025 would destroy the US economy.

There's fuckery afoot in Arkansas politics today. Apparently someone blasted out e-mails telling folks that the needed signatures for the abortion amendment to be on the ballot had been secured, so no need to come sign! Except that wasn't true. Gotta love dirty suppression tactics.

PS John Roberts has consistently bludgeoned democracy and empowered white supremacy and corporate power and been praised as an institutionalist while he did so. He is the "moderate Republican" in a nutshell.

Today’s @404media.co story detailing the exposure of administrative credentials to a major social media age verification platform, potentially allowing hackers to access sensitive data such as driver’s license images, is just more evidence that age verification bills like KOSA are dangerous.

The Internet Archive and Wayback Machine have to be supported and protected *at all costs* The history of the Internet and the cultures and creativity it spawned is a cultural treasure. And even on the Wayback Machine, it only exists in an often imperfect, fragmented form. But it's still something.

French poet and judge Etienne de la Boétie once wrote that tyranny requires moral support; it continues because those under it cooperate and ends the moment they refuse to. He argued that it is for this reason tyrants work to make the choice seem inevitable and the cost of refusal unthinkable.

If anyone in power actually gave an actual shit about prosocial and community-minded civil society, rather than power and the postures of power at any and all costs, this would be mean the immediate, summary, and quickly decided impeachment of a U.S. supreme court justice.
