At some point we also have to deal with the fact that one of the two parties is openly hostile to democracy. If you have to win big every election or else the country falls into despotism we're all just playing Russian roulette every few years

My big hypothesis is that the old state flag discourse is just a replacement for all of the Trump flags that folks no longer feel comfortably flying. Was surprised driving up north last weekend how few Trump flags or decals I saw. The old state flag is just a less embarrassing way of vice signaling.

A police chief was arrested after investigators alleged he used law enforcement databases, including an ALPR system, for numerous personal searches unrelated to official investigations. Sadly, this isn't the first time a police chief has been caught. www.lakemchenryscanner.com/2026/06/18/m...

I still use less secure platforms than proton but I feel like y'all should reassess your stance. Not only is recommending them after releasing identifying data on an "activist" not a good look, but also the fact that their CEO says really dumb shit that is at odds with an activist ethos.

Expecting us – with good reason based on history – to all thank them for their service. Fuck your service and fuck you. Saving a life is brave. Being instructed to kill and saying no I will not do that is brave. But killing like this? It is the least human thing you can do.

Did low effort content pave the way for AI? While it's easy to blame big tech, the recent onslaught of slop caters to an audience that has proven time and time again that they prefer quantity to quality. I talked about what it looks like to reclaim your taste and, by extension, your self respect.
