There's something that I find equal parts hilarious and terrifying.

On one hand it is so funny watching the generation previous to mine (I was born in 84) absolutely say the most unhinged shit online, doxx themselves, and get fired, after spending my entire childhood teaching me online opsec because every stranger was a potential murderer. Social media done rotted their brains.

But on the other I'm seeing kids coming up, seeing them spew all their personals online, and using that to model their unsafe behavior and put themselves at incredible risk because the internet actually got way more dangerous than it was, ironically, when I was coming up being told I had to basically outsmart the fuckin CIA. Now the actual CIA and other bad actors (government, private, and individual) really are out there and these kids are watching fucking meemaw post a photo of the front of her house practically captioned with her fucking SSN and thinking, "yeah, sure, the adults know what's safe."

I gotta be a fuckin millennial about this and beg younger folx to listen to the VCR generation: hide yourself online. Nothing should go there you wouldn't want in the hands of the person who hates you the most.

Be safe, be smart, be a fucking ghost.

ETA a new option:

(From a source I will not link.)

Also- if its 'extra important' even if only to a select few- torrents are a possibility. But yeah- private archives are important and precious and the only real possibility of owning media or having information in a space not controlled by capricious actors that control the cloud.

i encourage people to start archiving. whatever amount you can do. get a physical hard drive.

documentation of political events (both sides)

resources & information that you access online (don't bank on it staying up forever)

your important documents, photos, etc.

moments of humanity (ex: just saw a video of a nyc subway wall covered in hopeful sticky notes after the election)

culture you want to preserve (ex: like how ppl saved vines back in the day to make vine compilations when it went away!)

your medical records

what will you NEED access to if it's no longer available online?

what will you WANT to show future generations from this historic time period?

this was always important with the fragility of the internet but especially now 💕

In case it wasn't clear: DOGE is working with Russia, providing a backdoor for SOMEONE in Russia to login to US systems. PBS Newshour interviewed the whistleblower and yeeeeeah it's pretty damning stuff: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWpqJ8pD2Ng Basically the cybercriminal version of hiding a blood stain on the floor by ripping out the floor and leaving a gaping hole where floor used to be.... But leaving a great big bloodsmear from the hole in the floor all the way to a suspiciously stinky truck in the parking lot, that's owned by the known neighborhood hitman, which also happens to be piled high with blood-stained flooring.

it's really funny that even people who support luigi mangione have like fully bought into the propaganda being pushed that he's the one who did it when he hasn't been convicted of shit and is extremely likely just some guy the nypd and eric adams could reasonably pass off as the person who did it to save face. That huge fucking perp walk (that shouldn't have even been legal to do) was to plant the idea in the public's mind that yeah, obviously this guy did it, why would they be doing this if he wasnt, and you all fell for it without even thinking about it.

Trump supporters will swear up and down that Biden, Harris, and Obama were awful at securing the border…

But the second you criticize Trump's reckless deportations, they pivot to:

“Well actually, Obama deported more people than Trump ever did!”

Like… which is it? Were they weak on immigration or too good at it? You can’t accuse someone of leaving the door wide open and then brag they were the best bouncer in history.

In Case you have to deal with bad faith whining about Garcia Abrego's knuckle tattoos. (oh scary he has tattoos on his hand).

Lets review the timeline real quick in regards to the tattoos. Detailed timeline available here -

https://abcnews.go.com/US/timeline-wrongful-deportation-kilmar-abrego-garcia-el-salvador/story?id=120803843

3/15 Kilmar Garcia Abrego is detained by ICE. Sent to an El Salvador prison, CECOT without due process.

4/1 Media and a legal defense raise public interest. ICE and the federal admin make excuses, 'detained in error, but declared a gang member' etc, after the Trump admin 5 or 6 years prior had ruled he was in the country legally.

4/17 A photo op is arranged to show Abrego is alive, meets with Senator Van Hollen.

4/18 Trump holds up his photoshopped 'translation' of the cartoonish knuckle tattoos, a picture first published from El Salvador Dictator and sketchy cartel affiliate/bitcoin bro Nayib Bukele.

So Let's see- they detain a guy, the case goes to the highest court, and then almost a month later they say 'whelp look at these weird prison tattoos sideways and its totally just like all the members of MS-13 who have MS-13 on their body spelled with the four characters M and S and 1 and 3 the only difference being these tattoos aren't those characters. Bro we knew he was in the gang. And now that he's in our complete control, we didn't tie him down and tattoo some random shit on his knuckles, trust us bro, who would do something like that? Just tattooing markings on a prisoner who was denied legal recourse based on ethnic assumptions? We're not like the last people who famously did that at all- trust us bro. We just waited until the case had been in the highest courts before showing you this totally reliable photo.

Also if you look at his staged photo with the Senator? He's hiding his hands under the table- probably because they just held him down and randomly tattooed him? Regardless if this is just a theory or not- he had been processed and found innocent several times, and this is just some half baked "Fuck the Constitution, America has a King now, and we can hurt whoever we want, yeehaw racism is amazing again" motherfuckery. But for my money that photo op is a picture of a guy forced to dress like a fucking tourist and experiencing body horror after having been marked up by fucking monsters, all because he wanted to send at least one last message to his wife and child.

And if you think any of that benefits America in any positive way, I hope you fucking drink bleach, and chase it down with horse wormer, and I hope you get every cruel perverted nonsensical whimsy the Mad King can cook up. You people are a minority in America and your hate movement is on borrowed time.

"He hasn't violated any part of the constitution"

So I got this in one of those hit and run TUMBLR messages where the writer sends me a message, blocks me, and then runs away with it's tail between it's legs so I cannot reply.

I would normally post the person's name and the comment but I've grown soft in my old age. I think it's because the person is troubled and quite oblivious of the constitution.

But this gives me another chance to show what the constitution actually says and if i play my cards right maybe the poor person will come across it via another blog.

So, let's get this started, shall we?

He had a person arrested for speaking out against him. That violated Amendment 1.

He kicked a news source out of his news pit because they asked questions too tough for his staff. That also violated Amendment 1.

He gave a list of words that are forbidden to be used in scientific reports. Once again, a violation of Amendment 1.

He openly tried to pass a bill that will allow a group of people to hunt and handle people who are anti-Christian biased. Another violation of Amendment 1.

He has threatened to pull funding to any colleges that allow peaceful protests. That is another violation of Amendment 1.

Ok, what's next?

Let's revisit the man arrested at his own apartment because he spoke against Trump. Then we can discuss the woman that was arrested on the side of the street because she spoke out against Trump. The ICE officers shown no papers that gave them rights to arrest anybody legally. The officers have kicked down doors and arrested people for no real reason. This violates the fourth Amendment.

Let's talk about Due Process.

This is a little tricky but once you understand it... it's not hard to understand.

People have been arrested and sent out of this nation. These people received no trial. This also goes against the constitution.

It goes against the fifth amendment.

and the sixth amendment

and before you claim that they are not legal immigrants (which they were)

There is this part of the constitution...

So in other words, legal or illegal, while in this nation they SHALL RECIEVE DUE PROCESS

ALL OF THOSE PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN COLLECTED BY ICE DESERVE DUE PROCESS.

So, to those that claim Trump hasn't violated the constitution... You need to wake up. Because you are next.

Don't believe me??

Here is a video of Trump openly saying that if you have guns and you get into trouble your guns will be removed with out due process... WITH OUT TRIAL

Thanks for playing.
