Ginni Thomas’s political work continues creating conflicts for Justice Thomas and begs the question of why Congress made it harder for journalists to report similar conflicts by passing the overbroad and unconstitutional Judicial Security and Privacy Act. huffpost.com/entry/clarence…

I almost twitted about micro$oft doing something good and smart earlier. I was wondering if they really are a different org these days. But this reminded me that if they did something I like it was only because capitalism had an incentive aligned with the same outcome.

And so Microsoft, with 1700 legal staff available, didn’t reply to requests for comment from a major global media organisation about an about-to-be-published story explaining how Microsoft didn’t own the ending to the most successful game of all time.

BTW, the Freenode reference: banning mentions of other IRC servers, even "we're both here and there" in the channel topic, is what made people finally say "okay we're only there." x.com/geofft/status/…

Inspired by the Reagan graphs, here's a graph of IRC users by network so far this year, with an indication of when Andrew Lee took administrative control of Freenode:

@tehreedy It probably won’t become sentient or burst into flames if you wash it. I’d imagine worst case the shell shrinks on drying or the filling clumps.

So apparently selling a wedding cake to an LGBTQ couple is participating in the marriage, but selling a gun to a shooter isn't participating in the crime.

I’m excited for more actual center left folks in the US Senate next term, but with the loss of the center right House (yes, the US Democrats as a group are center right) I don’t expect that any actually useful legislation will make it to POTUS.

The Senate stays 🔵. And thanks to your support I will officially be your 51st vote in the U.S. Senate 😊🙏 I will proudly cast that 51st vote to: ✅ Scrap the filibuster ✅ Codify Roe v Wade ✅ Raise the minimum wage + a lot more
