House rejects GOP constitutional amendment to limit Supreme Court to 9 justices
A GOP-proposed constitutional amendment to limit the Supreme Court to nine justices failed in the House, coming up well short of the two-thirds majority needed.

"WEAK LOSER" DONALD TRUMP (CRAPPY HAIR!) IS A BROKEN-INSIDE MANCHILD. (SAD!) HIS TYRANT FATHER (KKK!) DESTROYED HIM AND NOW WE ALL MUST SUFFER AS A RESULT. YOUR FAVORITE WRITER (ME!) EXPLAINS THIS IN A GREAT POST THAT MANY ARE SAYING IS THE GREATEST POST EVER. READ IT HERE: bit.ly/3HD7AQd
this, my friends, is the difference between representative government and fascism for fascism’s sake.

if Donny and his merry band of shithole goons were actually interested in mitigating all this supposed crime happening in Chicago, they’d be coordinating the fuck out of the whole operation. right now, there would be a hundred conference calls a day happening between Chicago and DC. ‘ok, let’s figure out where the crime is, and where to best deploy.’ every last detail would be worked out in advance.

but none of that shit is going on, because the Mad King could give a fuck about actually fighting crime. what he wants is a fascistic display of force. what he wants is dominance — because deep down inside, Donny is an emotionally-scarred little boy who never got over being told what a weak piece of shit he was by his tyrant Klansman father, and now he’s going to make the entire world suffer as a result.

it’s all so fucked up. this is what happens when you let the most broken-inside person ever to walk the face of the earth hold the reins of power.

Only Dear Leader Can Fix It™? yeah, right.

Every ~80 years, history rhymes: stability → rebellion → fragmentation → crisis → repeat. The Hidden Circuitry of the Four Turnings reveals the neurochemical loop behind it — and how we might soften the next swing. garykephart.com/wordpress/th...
August 14, 1945, Times Square: crowds celebrate the end of World War II. Sailors, soldiers, and civilians embrace and cheer in the streets, a vivid snapshot of collective relief marking a Turning transition.

If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut science research and education the way we’re cutting it ourselves — strategically undermining America’s long-term health, wealth, and security — we would likely consider it an act of war.

Whenever you hear conservative politicians preach from the gospel of "fiscal responsibility," remember that one of the biggest drivers of deficits lately are the Bush and Trump tax cuts, which have added nearly $10 trillion to the national debt.

Can the U.S. President change national holidays? Nope. Only Congress can create, eliminate, or rename federal holidays. The president can suggest changes or issue one-time proclamations, but he can’t legally rename Veterans Day or make May 8 a holiday without a law.

Our #TheWheelOfTime Interview with an Eelfinn! Had a blast talking to @robertstrange.bsky.social. Is he good at bargaining? Would he choose fire, music, iron or none of the above? Would he ask for something for which he couldn't set the terms or price? WAFO! (Link in comments) #WoTShowSpoilers
This is a fourteen image panel, seven images per side of this vertical image. All of the images are of Robert Strange playing the Eelfinn in The Wheel of Time Season 3 Episode 8. Most of these are close up face shots where he is grimacing, smiling, laughing, and staring. A few of them are closeups to his human skin clothing. One of those is the spine. One is of his waist and the knives there. And one focus on his hands. You can see Donal Finn playing Mat in a few of these just over his shoulder. The Eelfinn has bright orange hair and is very furry and resembles a fox like figure.

Trump is like Elaida, but without the competence. Power-hungry. Self-deluded. Surrounded by sycophants and opportunists. Same over-the-top style. Both think they’re in charge—but they’re being played. #WoTSkies

Ep 304 Review: It's all Rhiudean, all the time. It covers Rand, Moiraine and Aviendha's journeys from TSR, ch 24,25,34. I don't know what I expected it to look like, but it looked very good. I may have added one or maybe two more transition scenes to help non-book readers, 1/2

Working on putting episode 203 online (almost done). This work brought out another interesting fact: Moiraine is not present in any scene in this episode. She's referenced 3 times, but that's it. #WoTSkies

I'm writing the summary for scene 20 in episode 202, with Nynaeve, Liandrin, and an old man. I can't decide if I should name this "A Man in Northharbor" or "Stupid Girl". The first is a throwback to a conversation Liandrin and Moiraine had. This is a tough summary to write. 1/ #WotSkies
