So it turns out I can't post a tweet here pointing to my #Mastodon account because Twitter now considers that federated collection of sites "unsafe".
Apparently, it hasn't noticed that I have the account linked from my Profile, if anyone is interested.
Bye, Elon.

House Republicans revere the Constitution so much they're going to read it aloud at the first session of the new House. Perhaps they could first take a moment to criticize and denounce this dangerous anti-Constitutional appeal by a man they've defended, supported, and cheered on?

The Right: The only defense against violence is an armed populace, protected by the Second Amendment.
Elon's Twitter: But not if we're talking about #lgbtq people.

So, while things here are getting more and more fraught (from tech/social/ethical perspectives), I am spending (and enjoying) more of my time over on Mastodon, where I am mstdn.social/@three_star_dav… for anyone who wants to find me over there.
Not giving up the birdsite yet, but ...

TL;DR: "We should stop talking about the past! We should just line up and march with Donald Trump, because he wants us to ignore the past (except for the whole Make America Great Again thing) and move forward and stop talking about all his legal troubles, please."

Unfortunately, I have covered mass shootings multiple times in my career. This is the first time I can recall getting message after message from viewers like this.

The attack on Paul Pelosi was the mark of a new phase on the far right, where even the pro forma expression of sympathy for the victim was dispensed with. Now we see that even victims of a mass shooting are seen as worthy of gleeful insult. Pure eliminationism.

Jesus wept.
The Colorado shooter’s dad on finding out his son murdered people: “They started telling me about the incident, a shooting... And then I go on to find out it’s a gay bar. I got scared, ‘Shit, is he gay?’ And he’s not gay, so I said, phew… I am a conservative Republican.” (@CBS8)
This guy is such a tool. Whether just bluster or an honest belief that he has a choice in whether he is investigated, I long for the day he finally gets slapped down, hard.

What to expect if the shooter turns out to be:
Hispanic — Build the wall
Arab — Ban Muslims
Black — BLM are terrorists!
White — We need to ask ourselves how are we as a society failing these poor troubled young men? What kinds of movies, video games, and music are we making?
TL;DR "We and our campaign war chests demand expanded use of hydrocarbons, even if the world burns. Anyway, Jesus will be back here soon."

its really something how "court decision allowing more people to vote" is automatically "this helps democrats" because that says volumes about the republican party
