The funniest part of checking in on Bluesky and Twitter (yeah, I am still typing that in to html) Is that 40% of the content on either platform is people talking shit about what the common content is on the other platform. Each with the most disingenuous take on users of the other platform.

ICE secretly kidnap autistic boy during bathroom break—never notify parents. Mother reported him missing a week ago—turns out ICE had him detained the whole time. He was helping sell fruit and asked to go to the restroom—by the time she was done helping a customer he was gone. Houston, Texas

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

one sign that the “unitary executive” is less the restoration of an older constitutional order and more the imposition of a radical new one is that allowing the president to act untethered from most legal or congressional limits has largely just served to plunge the country into disorder

Nobody seems to understand this. In fact, inflation is a godsend for wealthy debtors. The value of their non-cash assets increase, and the money they use to pay for it decreases in value over time. It’s a problem for wage earners; every paycheck is worth less than the last one.

When I was young I lived entirely in the moment. Then, I had a child and I lived with one foot in the future. Later, my parents died and I wanted to live with one foot in the past. By getting limber enough to keep one foot in each, I've found most myself back in the present. Life is funny like that.

Cost estimate of the House-passed "Big Beautiful Bill" is out It'd be the largest cut to Medicaid+CHIP and SNAP in history while still increasing deficits by $2.4 trillion due to $3.8 trillion in tax cuts This'd be the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in a single law in history
snap cuts, growing to 35% by 2034chip and medicaid cuts growing to 12-14% by 2034
