Trump and his allies have spent most of the past decade doing the administrative equivalent of ripping bundles of wiring out of the walls. When everything's trundling along, you don't necessarily notice the missing wiring. When something goes very wrong, suddenly the damage becomes apparent.

Once again people are fleeing the United States to Canada facing pursuit reminiscent of the escaped slave hunters. Just a reminder that despite our talk here in the US, Canada has better claim to being the land of freedom

My overly optimistic hope that Hegseth and the Iran War drives home how critical keeping the military out of politics is for us. And that the Democrats actually take a chance to reinvest in standard of living side of the military, that could bring a generational shift of military families support

I just realized that 99 percent of pseudoarchaeology/ancient alien conspiracies can be easily debunked by introducing the stunning concept of "wooden rollers that reduce friction when you're dragging heavy things."

Initially I was frustrated with the rise of self-checkout but I appreciated how stores passed the savings on to me rather than pocket the money, fire armies of workers & make me do a job I suck at. It’s also why I’m optimistic about AI! I have been kicked in the head by several horses.

Another reminder, in case anyone still cares about such things: This war is so clearly unconstitutional that even the Trump Administration (including its very compliant OLC) hasn't offered any argument to the contrary. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/29/u...

Clarence Thomas read the same piece of 1866 history one way when it helped kill affirmative action, and the opposite way when it helped block birthright citizenship. Originalism my ass. I wrote a satire about Brad, his clerk who quits over it because he can't take the cognitive dissonance.

Hi, I'm Brad, Justice Thomas’ former Supreme Court clerk. I’m an originalist, but even I can’t defend this otherwise venerable jurist’s hypocrisy in Trump v. Barbara.
