Was just reading John Quincy Adams' oral arguments before SCOTUS in the Amistad case and this part seems, uh, pretty relevant

A portion of John Quincy Adams' Amistad argument before SCOTUS: "I will not recur to the Declaration of Independence--your Honors have it implanted in your hearts--but one of the grievous charges brought against George III. was, that he had made laws for sending men beyond seas for trial. That was one of the most odious of those acts of tyranny which occasioned the American revolution. The whole of the reasoning is not applicable to this case, but I submit to your Honors that, if the President has the power to do it in the case of Africans, and send them beyond seas for trial, he could do it by the same authority in the case of American citizens. By a simple order to the marshal of the district, he could just as well seize forty citizens of the United States, on the demand of a foreign minister, and send them beyond seas for trial before a foreign court."

TIL The Metaverse was still a thing and hadn’t been shut over a year ago. You know, when Threads was going to bail them out of the Metaverse money pit.

And yet stock prices will still go up because tech bros and billionaires will artificially propel it up by overvaluing it because the stock market is bullshit. “Invisible Hand” my ass.

In the process of nuking my Twitter account and it feels great. First I'm using a service to scrub all of my tweets, replies, and likes because I don't trust Elon to actually delete it when I close my account. But as soon as it's done I'm gone forever.

A screenshot of the service I'm using to scrub all of my tweets, replies, and likes from Twitter so that I can quit forever. Because fuck Elon.

It's also a journalism failure that one of the most relevant news sources is Teen Vogue.

Further proof that the GOP hates veterans. They pretended to love active service members (thuh heeroze!) when there was a war making their defense industry donors obscene amounts of money, but now that all of that is over they actively detest them.

Racism writ large, and really all forms of supremacy, are about insecure white people having nothing else but their race to make themselves feel important. "Well, I ain't shit, never been shit, never gonna be shit...but I'm not black!" and now they get to convince themselves they're superior.

And as people start to hurt from things like this, especially when MAGA-types are hurting from it, expect them to go even harder for the most vulnerable: trans people, immigrants, unhoused people, etc. As MAGA hurts, they will need to show them the people they hate are hurting more.

I used to fly jets for the Navy, taking off and landing on aircraft carriers. I am also in awe of these pilots. Some of these aircraft are carrying 20 times their weight in water/retardant. They're doing it at SCARY low altitudes in INSANE updrafts. Nerves of fucking steel.

Anecdotally, I'd say the most common military-to-bad-things route is the "ETSed from a boring MOS with deep feelings of insecurity about it, and then became a divorced ammosexual conspiracy turnip" pipeline.

Again, my trauma didn’t make me stronger, my trauma broke me. I was strong before my trauma, and I regained that strength after. My trauma, and those who perpetrated it, do not get the credit for that. They weren’t there to break me out of the emotional prison of pain they put me in. I did that.

This is literally true. School vouchers were pioneered as a way to help white supremacists send their kids to a new wave of private "segregation academies" created expressly for the purpose. From my book WHITE FLIGHT:

For the new folks, one of #bluesky 's best features is that you can paste a url to link to(which uses a bunch of your 240 characters). That will create a link card (see below).Once the card is posted,you can delete the url and the link card remains but you get the characters back from deleting them.

Disneyland is not in LA, it's in Anaheim which is in a completely different county. By my best Google Maps estimation, that's 17mi from the closest point of the city of LA, and 6mi from LA County. This concludes my Ted Talk on California geography.
