AI thoughts: -Profit and greed are the greatest threat amplifiers of AI. -Outside of greed, control via AI surveillance scares me the most. -The Constitution’s intentionally slow, anti-democratic political structure will implode before it adequately handles these rapid advances.

This account’s bio claims he is “live-posting as a reporter embedded in history.” My account is a meme page that has had “not to be taken seriously” in its bio when people think i’m anything but satire. 2001 Live is batshit and I will wear his block as a badge of honor.

It is the right of all Americans to imagine a new Constitution; after all, it is the people who give the document legitimacy! The worst structure of our government is the Senate; abolishing it is a condition to reach a democratic society. I believe that regardless of Article V.
Glad to be a DSA member but let's stop talking about things that will never happen like abolishing the Senate (see Article V) and praising people who don't deserve it like leaders of one-party states that put people in jail for speaking against them

The third chapter of my thesis is live. "This and that" is the frame of American politics and has been so since the Constitution’s ratification. Thomas Paine fell right between the two stools.

At 7am today, ICE murdered a community member in Maine. @TroyJackson207: Attending an emergency rally and raising money for Maine Solidarity Fund. @nirav_maine: Supporting MSF. @JordanWood: Milquetoast statement. @shennabellows: Tone deaf fundraising text at 11:30 am.

The Senate, a capped House, the Electoral College, an overpowered executive, and the inherent subjectivity of 'Constitutional Law' must lead this country to reconsider its republic. New essay out now:

There is a lesser known genocide Joe in Rochester’s #NY25. Rep. Joe Morelle has received >$90k from pro-Israel donors in 2026 with $10k from war profiteer L3Harris. He’s also backed by UnitedHealth and a pro-AI superPAC. I will be voting for the unbought Robin Wilt on Tuesday.

reminiscing on simplescotus and how from ‘22-‘25 the account encapsulated my disillusionment with the american system. now i’ve lost any motivation to make SCOTUS funny. each time you can think of the most evil decision possible and its usually the outcome save like 1/15 cases.

happy pride, i believe queerness goes beyond sexual orientation and gender identity as it has and should represent a radical opposition to the existing orders of society. queer liberation is tied to the liberation of all people. it is a political identity born out of repression.

After the Revolution, Thomas Paine was cast aside in the early U.S. My thesis uses political cartoons from the era to track the origins of his vilification, comparing his biography to his caricature. The introduction is live now, subscribe for upcoming chapters.
