They should name that combo move from Osprey and Strickland. House Blade? Blade Call? Hidden call? Lots of good choices.

These allegations are damning. An explicit quid pro quo. Mayor Adams backed Trump’s immigration agenda to dodge corruption charges.
NYC can’t be led by someone under Trump’s thumb and willing to sell out New Yorkers. Mayor Adams must resign.
As I move away from Twitter I wonder this: if we ever get out of the hole of this current moment, I think we should question the nature of digital spaces like this one and their relationship to private ownership. What does it mean when the public square can be bought?
2016 showed how amoral profit driven algorithms that had no content regulation for misinfo could be a cancer to our Republic. 2024 has shown us how fucking dangerous it is for one man to be able to buy the public square and fill it with whatever he wants.
Yeah, I'm switching over to BlueSky, which already feels like this place did pre-Musk. Might still peep my head in every once in a while, but you can find me as AkaiChar.
Honestly, this site has felt more and more like a ghost of itself and now that Musk is doing to the government exactly what he did to Twitter, it doesn't feel great to give him ad dollars.

We're reaching the point where I would strongly encourage queers who think Republicans will spare them to read about Ernst Röhm and the Night of Long Knives.
As soon as you aren't needed you will be killed, because you aren't part of the end goal. Never were. Never will be.
Tired of people telling me, "The Republicans will not spare you!" as I try to steer transsexual rights in a sane direction.
Republicans are not all gay hating, trans hating transphobes. Yes, some are, but if we stop ACTIVELY DOING INSANE STUFF they will move on.
Most of them don't care about trans women making an effort to integrate and move on with life without causing a fuss.

Were severance packages woke should we not expect those going forward?
Microsoft has introduced a stricter layoff policy, terminating employees without severance or extended benefits. Affected workers face immediate dismissal, losing access to company systems, healthcare, and other perks on their last working day

Man, it really is shocking how quickly one yearns for the banal complicit evil of a Democrat the moment Donald rolls back around.

This is when I knew it was about to crash
