Trump seems to be operating under the “unitary executive theory” of presidential power, but this is not the law of the land. The US government was never meant to operate like a corporation where the CEOs word is final. Our laws have checks *within* the executive branch.

Most power is ceded through the apathy of the people not taken at gun point. We must not accept their false claims that their actions are lawful exercise of Presidential power. They are breaking the law of the land.

Workers are clearly dispensable pieces of property in their eyes. It’s a new day in America. Let’s hope the series of gut punches like this we are experiencing are enough to wake the sleeping giant of the American people. Resistance is NOT futile.

We must acknowledge that our government is now under the control of forces unabashedly dismantling it before our eyes. We are a people under siege and must act accordingly. Time is running out.

Imagine the world is full of locked doors. The vast majority of people have keys that can open many of them. But your key doesn’t seem to work, except for doors that are generally boarded up. That’s my ADHD experience. Others block doors my key fits. Sometimes ADHD ≈ social misalignment

My own version: “I apologize for assuming there was a shred of humanity left in that thin skinned, egomaniacal, phobic shadow of a soul.” But seriously, I’d love to hear what exactly she would need to apologize for. Exhorting congregants to follow scripture?

I suppose the real question is, when the inevitable legal challenges start rolling in and someone obtains an injunction, will this administration honor it. I’m far from certain what the answer to that is. And I fear it will hinge on whether Trump expects SCOTUS to side with him or not.

BlueSky is an opportunity to start over in the world of short form communication. But apathy towards these kinds of threats will turn it into the next X. Stay vigilant and think before you reply. And even if the response is genuine. Consider if anything is gained by responding to trolls.

Do game developers have any obligations when their story lines can profoundly impact one’s world view? I’m thinking about games like NieR: Automata, where an unfinished play thru might leave people in a highly nihilistic state. All media has this potential but games have elements that amplify this.

Regarding evil in the world and “acts of God,” AKA natural disasters. Consider how different the impact of these events would be if our society wasn’t set up to exploit others. Ex. Nobody need live in major flood zones because affordable housing would be available in safer areas.

I think its a truism at this point to say capitalists have too much power in the US right now. The answer to that, IMHO, is cooperation. Specifically, cooperation between people with skills to create employee centric economic entities to offer alternatives to profit centric corporations.

I’m not really a TikTok guy, but I have to wonder, can’t some of the bigger names join together and make something like Nebula? Perhaps have free access for viewing and a fee for creating more than X videos per month? Or something like that?

Reading the relevant portion of this “filing” by Trump has left my brain bleeding. Imagine arguing that the *legal* basis for you to take over is that you own Truth Social so “get it.” Followed by many other superlatives describing your deal making prowess. Go read it. I’m not kidding.

I wonder if a better grasp of probability could make us happier. Instead of feeling owed when luck doesn’t go our way, we might find more contentment with the odds and enjoy the surprise when things do break our way. Randomness doesn’t keep score, desite what our intuition might imply.

I have to wonder if the “loss of respect,” being perceived is just their bubble being popped about how they believed they ought to be treated as men. How might they feel if their starting point was how women have been treated?

As an American who lived and worked in Denmark for 7 yrs, I can tell you that the right's claims about democratic socialism are so far off the mark they'd be laughable if they weren't so insidious. No system is perfect, but the Danes have got a lot figured out.

Healthcare is just one of the systems in the US with built in dead ends, where you’re expected to just shrug and walk away. But such unmet needs lead to an unavoidable build up of pressure that eventually bursts. The dead ends must end.

I believe the reason we invest so much in being angry about the problems we face is that we fear our own apathy. youtu.be/FcbtkVTAyqM

It seems to me that when people are able to insulate themselves from the consequences of their actions for long enough, a kind of pressure begins to build up within the system. Such pressure generally catastrophically releases eventually.

ADHD and chronic pain make life unpredictable. What’s possible today might be impossible tomorrow—not for lack of effort or will, but because our bodies and minds refuse. We work hard just to appear “normal,” and yet can still often deliver exceptional results. Today, I salute these fighters.
