If you’re in Austin on no sleep like everyone else, you can turn off “Enhanced Safety Alerts” on your iPhone. Go to Settings → Alerts and scroll all the way to the bottom.
Screenshot of my iPhone notifications that screamed alarms at me all night long warning me of the “Imminent Threat Alert” of flooding should I happen to be out driving and not, in fact, trying to sleep.

Stop calling right-wing radicals “conservatives.” There is nothing remotely conservative in their multi-pronged war against our Constitutional democracy.

Grandiloquent Word of the Day @grandiloquentwords.bsky.social · 23/05/2026
Hunkerousness [HUNG-ker-us-nes] (n.) - Old fogy-ism; political conservatism; an inexplicable opposition to compassion, kindness, progress, and equality.
A “Grandiloquent Word of the Day” meme featuring the word “Hunkerousness,” with the pronunciation “[HUNG-ker-us-nes]” beneath it. The definition reads: “(n.) 1. Old fogy-ism; political conservatism; an inexplicable opposition to compassion, kindness, progress, and equality.” Below the definition is an example sentence: “The xenophobic party cheered each fresh act of cruelty as its hunkerousness metastasized into a cult of personality surrounding a bloated demagogue who trafficked in suspicion, cruelty, and anti-intellectualism.” On the right side is a detailed Victorian-style woodcut illustration of two men in top hats standing beneath a decorative arched structure.

What that means is the new ICE post-any-reforms will be a co-creation of the White House & Democrats; an agreed-upon new form for what is our now new secret police. This means the next time some falls to an ICE bullet, there will be lots of blame to go around, which the @democrats.org will share. 5/
