The Dutch version of the BBC (very simply put) has started consistently stating in every article about Trump that he has a history of lying and saying nonsense. It's really satisfying.

"President Trump, who often lies, said that..."

It's a small thing, but it cheers me up.

@NicksWorld @rooktallon the definition of a writer is not "someone who has published a book" or "someone who gets advances" (most writers don't) or even "someone who writes novels". It's "someone who writes", and nothing more.

The people in #WritersCoffeeClub work in a variety of mediums including fanfic, poetry, comics, nonfiction, short stories, novels and games. Some of us are pros, some are hobbyists.

We'll spend the weekend mulling over decade-old emails instead of the fact that Democrats agreed to fund ICE for two more weeks while surrendering their leverage by allowing the rest of the bill to pass.

The center-left better never talk about media literacy ever again. 🫠

Republicans and Democrats reach funding package deal, US president says:

"Trump added: “Republicans and Democrats in Congress have come together to get the vast majority of the Government funded until September, while at the same time providing an extension to the Department of Homeland Security"

You know how I knew Democrats caved on ICE? Because more Epstein lore dropped today.

@cstross

The book is perfect: It's absurd, the cover is ridiculous, and it's free, so we're not giving Amazon any money.
redditors have already pushed the book high: It's currently the 15th result when you search "Melania Trump." That's crazy. 2 days ago it wasn't even on the first page. With a little more push, we can keep this moving up the charts. We just need people to:
"Buy" the book (it's free)
Share this post and get other people to buy the book. {MORE}

Get in. We're messing up Melania's Amazon search results
This weekend, Amazon is premiering its $40 million Melania Trump documentary. It already seems to be a flop.
But we're going to take it one step further by messing up Melania's Amazon search results. Specifically, we're going to amplify the paranormal erotic thriller novel Melania: Devourer of Men so it ranks higher than her movie. {MORE}

MN Judge: "ICE has violated nearly 100 court orders."

ICE Fascists: "We're acting on orders of DHS Secretary Kristy Noem."

Kristi Noem: "Everything I've done, I've done at the direction of the president and Stephen."

Nuremberg Trials: "I was just following orders is not a valid defense to criminal behavior.'

Abolish ICE. Impeach Noem. Prosecute every illegal action by this regime.

Anything less is unacceptable.

Republicans are literally dismantling US democracy in front of us & the US media is glaringly, obviously inadequate to the task of covering it, so they all just desperately want to return to the equilibrium, where they all shit on Biden, all nod at one another, all celebrate one another's bravery.

The national press desperately misses having Biden around to beat up, so they are vowing to make the 2028 Dem primary all about Biden ... and having the gall to pretend that it's *voters* who want this.

That clip of Hannah Spencer shows a major difference between genuine grassroots politics and stage-managed BS.

Compare the stilted 'they aren't actors but they are trying to act' versus the honest humanity of the speakers.

Compare the "applaud now / cheer now" reactions of the right wing audience of a Lab/Con/LD/Refash/etc. and the crowd reactions there.

I expect attacks on:

* Her accent
* Her heritage
* Her looks / fashion / femininity

The RW press will be tearing through the image searches for her looking like an actual working person and they will probably find something that just reinforces her credentials and try to present it as negative.

It's interesting to hear lib-Bluesky discuss today's general strike, while congruently, tech-YouTube is discussing how weather-YouTube is suddenly scaring people about the weather.

Today, some folks are protesting with their wallets, while a presumably similar amount of people are stocking up on *extra* food and supplies.

This could be a coincidence, or market manipulation. Either way, maybe it's time to consider a new strategy?
