Why did Eric Schmitt fuck up his gotcha moment so badly? No one involved considered the possibility that Jack Smith attended a women’s basketball game. A MAGAt undone by misogyny. Not at all surprising.

When Lucy from Compass Books in Dartmouth, Devon, was victim to shoplifting people told her to install CCTV. Instead she put this ancient book thief curse on the wall from the Monastery of San Pedro in Barcelona so book stealers would be consumed by "the flames of hell" with "their members blasted".

A Curse Against Stealers Of Books
For him that
stealth a book from
this place, let it
change into a
serpent in his hand
and rend him.
Let him be struck with
palsy,
& all his members
blasted.
Let him languish in
pain crying aloud for
mercy, & let there be be no surcease to his
agony till he sink to
dissolution.
Let bookworms gnaw
his entrails in token of
the Worm that diets not,
& when at last he
goeth to his final
punishment, let the
flames of
hell consume him
forever & aye.
(Monastery Of San Pedro, Barcelona.)

Octavia E. Butler’s novel “Parable of the Talents” depicts a dystopian United States run by Christian Nationalists. Their slogan is “Make America Great Again.” Published in 1998, many years before Trump’s political career, but this poem in the book prophesied Trump. (Poem from @zymplex.bsky.social)

Here is what you're going to do: 1. REGISTER TO VOTE www.vote.org 2. Learn about the candidates on the ballot. You should know what Congressional district you live in...at MINIMUM. An educated voter isn't easy to manipulate. 3. HOUND your peers to ensure they are registered to vote, too.

Rename Canola! Wait until Trump learns that canola oil, of which Americans consume ~7 billion pounds a year, was invented in Canada in the 1970s, bred from rapeseed plants to remove a bitter taste, and that the name's a portmanteau combining Can (for Canada) with ola (from the Latin oleum, oil).

Regulatory capture has been a huge problem for decades, perhaps since just after WWII. And it is now ubiquitous, to the point we are now, which is that many of the people in power seem to see working in government as an opportunity for grifting, and not as performing a public service.

This is the bare truth. Every second of this. This idea needs to break through to the mainstream, and I'm not sure it will; propaganda is extremely difficult to be heard over. But if it did, well, that would be a very good thing.

This should be getting FAR more attention. An American oil company with ties to Trump’s orbit is moving forward with plans to drill for oil in Greenland. Some drilling-related equipment has already been brought ashore even though Greenland says the necessary approvals have NOT been granted.

This looks very much like Trump setting up a pretext to invade and acquire Greenland. My guess is that when Greenland/Denmark try to stop the drilling, Trump will send the US military to "protect the workers", and military and drilling will expand from there. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/a...

We’ve been saying this for a while now many of the people being targeted are just fishermen. Evidence now supports that the United States has killed individuals who were not involved in drug trafficking during its “counternarcotics interdiction operations” in the Caribbean and Pacific.

So many sneering elitist journalists with snarky posts over the past months that the Reflecting Pool story was trivial. It was so trivial that the DC US Attny presented false evidence to a grand jury to indict an innocent man to please the President while they both lied about it.
