It’s worth noting that nobody ever even asks Republicans to do anything to bring about healing and unity. It’s unimaginable.

Last week for #MineralMonth, we watched the Steven Universe movie. This week we're diving into @TheRock's ouvre with Doom.

Amazon is kicking Parler off @awscloud!

While this is a huge victory, this goes to show that AWS can stop powering ICE, which has committed atrocities including forced hysterectomies, at any time but has decided not to.

Yes, remember that the United States Constitution says that “no Person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress” who “shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against" the Constitution, “or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof."

This President is a clear and present danger to our country. While I have pushed other remedies for his criminal conduct, impeachment is the tool before us and warranted for his seditious acts.

I will be voting yes on impeachment when brought to the House floor. (1/4)

Pre-colonial Africans societies were either acephalous or had centralized government systems in which the ruler's power was checked by a council, whose approval was necessary for the promulgation of any law--a check and balance systems. Colonializers did not bring democracy.

If there's a significant political backlash for impeaching Trump for **inciting an insurrection** then we're probably completely fucked no matter what. https://twitter.com/ryanstruyk/status/1347922375925501954

In the spirit of lifting stuff from the real world for rpgs, what are some obscure geological or climate oddities that nevertheless happened? Like how once, Siberia was on fire for a million year or that time it rained for millions of years.

Any recommendations for SF/F novels about rebuilding AFTER the war/disaster? I feel like we'll be entering such a phase soon.

Another way to look at this is that forcing publishers to publish the government's speech is what happens in China.

The amazing thing is that when historians someday write about this week in US politics, they probably won't even mention Trump's Georgia phone call—which in-and-of itself would be the greatest scandal of any other presidential administration.
