Originalism is an utter sham. It is bogus pseudointellectual claptrap trotted out when convenient, then put away when otherwise.

Originalism is a code word for white male supremacy.

Originalism is nothing more than a tool currently in use by federalist society christofascists to reverse engineer outcomes dictated by their masters.

President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy visited Brussels on Feb. 9, 2023, and addressed the European Parliament. Zelenskyy received a long-standing ovation before he began speaking to the assembly.

“We do not rely on words — we act. We do not cower before the enemy — we stand. We do not waste time — we change ourselves, and we implement changes,” Zelenskyy said.

Your inability to handle the truth has no bearing on my telling it.

The first Black astronaut in history to perform a spacewalk!

STS-63 Mission Specialist Bernard Harris gained this distinction #OTD in 1995. Before his 1990 selection as an astronaut, Dr. Harris worked at @NASA_Johnson as a flight surgeon & clinical scientist. #BlackHistoryMonth

NYT went out and made a trans focus group and found some real idiots 🤦🏻‍♀️

Day 9: Favourite Character

Elim Garek obviously... From the first scene where he meets Bashir (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZR1zgRYL530)

To the lies... oh especially the lies
The insults about Root Beer
The claustrophobia, his relationship with his father

Probably one of the most complex supporting characters on any #startrek

He should of shot Dukat in the back.

Day 3: Favourite Starship

I'll go with #Discovery because there's something about that sleek design that appeals to me. It's the same reason why I love the NX-01 and post-D #Enterprise designs; the other models are a bit chunky. Discovery's got a lovely aesthetic inside too. Plus, why warp when you can spore?

#StarTrek #StarTrekDiscovery

Guess who tried to faithfully recreate the #StarTrek TNG warp effect. This guy!

(Never mind the static motion blur on the Enterprise, it’s just a cutout on top 😅)

"DeSantis’s maverick approach to primary, secondary and higher education"

🤔 🤷‍♂️ 🤦

The New York Times is deeply, perhaps irretrievably, broken. Totally unable and unwilling to face the reality of a far right authoritarian party and call it what it is. It takes concerted effort to consistently fail this badly.

@stroughtonsmith I am not making an app.

🗺️ Instead, I am making shaded relief maps where I use 3D data to get a 3D-like visual perspective, and then I overlay them with satellite imagery.

🛍️ Printed maps are available for purchase at my little boutique shop at https://www.etsy.com/shop/HicSuntDraconesMaps.

Oh, and I am open to custom mapping requests.

Thanks, Steve, for this #showcase #cartography

The choices that were made.

The Confederate flag equals treason. It really is that simple. If you fly one or wear one, you are promoting treachery.

My GF last night: Did you hear about LeBron James?

Me: I don't care.

GF: You didn't hea..

Me: I really don't care.

GF: You didn't read about it anywhere???

Me: Did he save someone's life?

GF: No?

Me: Did he break up a child rape club?

GF: No.

ME: Did he cure cancer?

GF: No!

Me: Was it some sports thingy?

GF: Yes!

Me: Then I definitely don't care.

Relatedly, all U.S. citizens should be represented by a representative and two senators in Congress. The residents of DC, Puerto Rico, and four other island territories --- who outnumber the population of around 10 Republican states --- remain excluded from national policymaking.

apparently you can get more interaction on social media by asking questions so i’ll not be doing that.

Speaking of trans people being magic #trans #transTimelineThursday #selfie
