Hot take: I don't think social media made people dumber. We've been dumb this whole time. It's just that you used to have to have a job that people sent their dumb letters to, to notice. This made "Engaging with fools" an occupational hazard rather than the 24/7 experience it is presently.

Somehow not everyone is aware of fact alluded to below. So one more time: John Roberts, Brett Kavanaugh, Amy Coney Barrett were all on GWBush 2000 'Florida Recount' team. (Which made GWB first prez in 112 yrs to 'win' after losing popular vote. Now they 'impartially' rule on our future.)

"When one side rejects pluralism, electoral legitimacy, or epistemic accountability, then 'reconciliation' and even 'civility' function less as neutral civic virtues than as asymmetric constraints, and they risk unilaterally disarming pro-democracy forces." 🎯

It's too grim to face the situation we are in, every time these cases come out in the news, which is there there is no law, policy, or policing remedy to sexual violence, and definitely not one that is capable of ending sexual violence.

I don't love dunking on folks but it's so fucking funny to me that Trump was convicted of 34 felonies 2 years ago, faced no punishment, and went on to win the presidency a second time and journalists are still like, "hmm, I have an inkling that maybe he believes he's above the law for some reason."

Post from NYT reporter Eric Lipton

"What an odd moment in United States history.

A U.S. president is running an overtly political campaign advertisement, right before midterm elections, paid for by the U.S. government.

Trump appears to believe he is immune from any kind of legal limit."

This culture of predation disgused as sexual open-mindedness is painfully familiar: Richard Stallman's "pleasure cards," Eric Raymond's open marriage that included propositioning colleagues, etc. As with everything else, the SV/VC/AI crowd has reinvented sexual harassment from first principles.

Trump is raging at news orgs for refusing to cover his reception of Xi after he banned three from the White House. The real lesson here: When institutions join together to resist his abuses of power it actually works, sending him into a helpless fury. New from me: newrepublic.com/article/2158...

The real worry is not the next two years, but the 2-4 after that. If this is a bellwether, we are never going to get the real, serious, major institutional reform that we need to make sure that this era of lawless authoritarianism doesn't happen again, even if we get a Democratic president in 2029.

Top right: Padmé looks at him expectantly. Text reads: "AND YOU'RE GOING TO PROVE THAT BY LISTING THE GREAT BOOKS BY RIGHT-WING WHITE MEN THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED"

Bottom left: Anakin looks blankly or judgmentally.

Bottom right: Padmé looks frustrated. Text reads: "SERIOUSLY, BRET, NOT ONE EXAMPLE? GOING BACK TEN YEARS??? NOT A SINGLE BOOK THAT YOU COULD EVEN PRETEND SHOULD'VE BEEN INCLUDED?"

ICE abducted a WBB player while she was traveling with her Kentucky State team in early August at Louisville airport. She has been imprisoned for 1.5 months and denied care for a serious ACL injury. It is the responsibility of universities and the NCAA to protect their players. They have failed.

Aminata Seck, 26, a student-athlete at Kentucky State University, was arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement at the Louisville Muhammad Ali International Airport while traveling with her school's basketball team Aug. 7, said Sadiqa Reynolds, a lawyer helping coordinate Seck's case.

Seck's team was headed to New York for a tournament, and she was taken into custody after going through airport security, said Reynolds, former president and CEO of the Louisville Urban League.
