#Trello, your continued decline in terms of #UX and forcing me to re login repeatedly, the somewhat clumsy merging with an #Atlassian account, etc, and ever poorer performance means that its time to part ways after however many years its been.

"The rapid growth, short-term mindset that guided many of them over the last two years, has contorted into a more conservative, survivalist one.

"The #court’s decision is so emphatic, and so contemptuous of the principle of stare decisis, that one wonders whether the unvarnished #radicalism of the decision will finally rouse millions of Americans to the threat posed by a court untethered to law, precedent or reason." https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/06/24/supreme-court-abortion-legitimacy-radicalism/
"If #GinniThomas was simultaneously discussing these efforts with her husband (they reportedly refer to each other as “best friends”), it means, first, that #ClarenceThomas — at a minimum — was aware of concerted efforts to thwart a legitimate presidential #election on factually erroneous grounds and did not make that known." https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2022/03/30/impeach-supreme-court-justice-clarence-thomas-00021480

It appears, in short, to be a kind of attempted regime change: a #coup that we would have no problem describing as such in any other country but our own." https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2022/6/28/23186934/cassidy-hutchinson-trump-january-6-hearing
