just enough for some garnish, to give it the vibes of the best combo of burger toppings, and then you scoop it up with crunchy bread that retains its structural integrity this is now my preferred methodology and I’m trying it tonight to see if it holds up with a basic B like Progresso

Why do you think a handful of companies are pouring so much money into AI? Is AI a bubble, or is it a rescission of the current social contract In advance of global warming making it impossible for the owners to hold up their obligations under said “contract“?

The great thing about international law is that you can extradite your former president, who is otherwise domestically immune from prosecution, to face justice elsewhere. The good news is Trump indicted Castro on a similar basis. Chef’s kiss.

@anthonyryan.bsky.social I really like this sentence from Road of Storms: “To bring it to life, we must harness it, convert the essence of faith into an animating force. But no two souls ever believed in the same god. Welding such disparate and ancient echoes into a single purpose is…difficult.”

if there is a "primary contradiction" in today's politics, it's a battle between those who want everyone to live the full life that they chose, versus those who want to control us in order to make sure we don't.

If you don't yet subscribe to and support Mother Jones, now would be a great time to step up and do so. They have been sourcing a lot of important and timely stories over the last several months. If you still have some money in the subscription budget, Wired is doing great work these days, too.

@schiff.senate.gov @padilla.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov Who votes which way is theater. What matters is Schumer guided his caucus to reward Trump's bad behavior, and he will only be emboldened the next time. I will never give to Schiff or Padilla again, and I will support primary challengers.

Trump grabs Dems by the pussy. Dems: That's my pussy! Hands off! Trump: Let me have my way with you, or I will make it so tens of millions of my constituents starve and lose their healthcare. Dems: Take me! I'm yours! Pathetic.

@stevevladeck.bsky.social As a paid subscriber to One First, please consider making Bonus 184 generally available. Most people don't understand how much judicial decisions assume a functioning Congress, and I am worried SCOTUS is going to dodge the tariff issue by declaring it a political question

We did not go from the Western Roman Empire to feudalism without intent. We did not go from feudalism to capitalism without intent. Somebody intends to transition from capitalism to something even worse. Pay attention.

Yep. This is the whole game. Republicans can end the shutdown today by doing away with the filibuster, but they need the filibuster to argue Dems are to blame for the shutdown. The GOP is using the filibuster as both a sword and a shield, and Dems are fine with it.

Tao Jonesing @taojonesing.bsky.social · 02/10/2025
Let us know how that “fight” turns out, Senator. The only reason you can pretend to be fighting is because the GOP Senate is pretending the filibuster rule, which they can change at any time, is still in effect.

Tao Jonesing @taojonesing.bsky.social · 01/10/2025
It is still avoidable you preening fool. The GOP senate can kill the filibuster today. Call on them to do it, just as they did for another issue less than two weeks ago. Make them own their destruction. You don’t have to pretend to play chicken. Call them out, loser. Y’all suck at politics.

Trump routinely revokes validly issued visas. As soon as he receives the money, what will stop him from revoking EB-2 visas and deporting the visaholders, once they have been declared "undocumented"?
