One of the most storied newspapers in Oregon just went digital and now is going dark entirely. @mailtribune in Medford is history. A jolt for Oregon journalism. h/t @scottstoddard mailtribune.com/general-alert/…


Not going anywhere (from here) for the moment at least, but I'm also planning to be accessible at @stapilus@mastodon.sdf.org


It's long been true but especially now: Believe *nothing* you see on Twitter until you check it out properly elsewhere.

Pretty frightening article about the progress made by what can only be called fascism in the reddest of red states. huffpost.com/entry/far-righ…

To be more concerned about inflation than a plot to end democracy is pretty much a definition of the choice made by many in pre-WW2 Germany.


So a group of extremists got themselves elected to a local governing board. Is it really a big deal? What’s the worst that could happen? Welcome to North Idaho College. A column. ridenbaugh.com/index.php/2021…

The spread of yet another Big Lie - this one describing Russian interference in US elections as a "hoax" - prompts me to repost this. Disinformation only works because we allow it to work. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

No, it’s NOT #ObamaCare that led to these “death panels” in @GOP-stronghold #Idaho. It’s the UNVACCINATED.🤬 #GetVaccinated #COVID19

🚨BREAKING: #Idaho enacts “crisis standards of care” due to hospitals being overwhelmed by the #COVID19 surge, warning that some patients won't get needed care. So many UNVACCINATED are now sick that healthcare resources must be rationed. PEOPLE WILL DIE BECAUSE OF THIS.🤬

When you see how easy it to grift right-wing voters, it makes sense why so many people become grifters who target right-wing voters.

OMG-just saw this on FB!!! "This is just INSANE on a whole other level! These “tickets” are being sold for as high as $1,200 each on Q sites all over the internet, the crazy part is that people are talking about how excited they are because they’ve already purchased them."

The outrageous, BS provision in the Texas bill that makes it illegal to transport more than 2 non-relatives to polls unmasks better than anything the motive here. This has nothing to do with "voter fraud" and everything to do with voter suppression. TX GOP= racist authoritarian.
