@tallchris.bsky.social Just revisited the Burn Permits’ Physical Release album. It was a joyous rediscovery. Thanks for making it!

Another ICE/CBP murder

Dude…

Denser neighborhoods are better.

WTF?

EXCLUSIVE: Bill Pulte is set to become the acting director of national intelligence. His father and grandfather had multiple ties to The Family, the secretive Christian group pushing right-wing agendas around the world.

the US military had removed recognition of a large number of minority religions, inc various pagan groups and UU. This article identifies it as a move by Hegseth toward creating a Christian nationalist culture in the military. www.military.com/dod-official...

NYU Professor Scott Galloway on how Dems can work to regain the trust of young men in America

Unreal.

Just going to join with the many others saying: this is simple courage & humanity & whatever else you think about the race, Steyer deserves enormous credit for it.

Downtown. 325 Sixth Ave - Duquesne Club. Caller is with the club and says that a Toyota is parked out front. The horror.

EXCLUSIVE: I just revealed that Rep. @tomsuozzi.bsky.social lives at C Street. That’s the DC townhouse run by The Family, the secretive Christian group that runs the National Prayer Breakfast. Suozzi pays $800/month. He's kept it secret for years. There’s more…

i think that everyone knows not to use u-line for record storage supplies by this point but JUST IN CASE

3 BANDS TO GET TO KNOW MY POPS Credence Three Dog Night The Eagles on (more Life in the Fast Lane than Hotel California, but maybe that’s just me putting a spin on it).

My best friend gave his life for this country. He's buried less than a mile from that podium, and two of his children, whom he loved fiercely, are trans. This is just a giant middle finger to a man who was 1,000x the soldier the secretary could ever hope to be.

I laughed harder at the chili dog bit and Jeff Daniels interview than I have at anything Colbert has done in years… and I’ve loved him since the Daily Show. It’s just that funny.

personally i think children should have spaces where they can escape their abusive families and have autonomy and self-determination

Trans people have been around your whole life. You’ve been sharing bathrooms with them your whole life. They’ve been in your communities your whole life. They’ve even been playing sport your whole life. And you didn’t care *at all* till a few years ago when every right wing org decided you should

Third #weeklybeats collaboration of the year! weeklybeats.com/levelcapybar...

This week, the House passed the Don’t Say Trans bill (& pushed forward the CHARLIE Act) All 209 Republicans & Dem Reps Fields (LA), Davis (NC), Gillen (NY), Kaptur (OH), Cuellar & González (TX), Vindman (VA) & MGP (WA) have betrayed their constituents by voting for this hateful piece of legislation

Eff this noise.

Trans people are not “fighting for unpopular positions that society isn’t ready for.” Trans people are fighting to KEEP the rights we have enjoyed for decades. We have been able to legally change our gender markers since the 70s and before. Same with bathrooms, sports, youth, all for decades.

If this is not an impeachable offense then what is the purpose of having this designation? What leaders refuse to say is also a message.

Sounds impeachable.

I never thought I’d see this band play these songs again. Silkworm in Philadelphia. They opened with Couldn’t You Wait and it was overwhelming. It’s like when Gandalf comes back in Lord of the Rings, to get incredibly nerdy.

I just want to add, since this is breaking containment, that this can't be made right. these people, each one a whole universe, are gone. there can only be justice for the perpetrators; public remorse & restitution; & reform to ensure future aid systems are more just and less prone to imperial whims

how are there only 2000 people watching this. get with the program America

It’s Bandcamp Friday and new music day from me! Check out the new Red Star Sky and help me raise funds for the Letters to Santa charity!

The Fucking News is my go-to daily news source for more reasons than the character limit on BlueSky allows. Today’s is not only great as usual, but @jonathanlarsen.bsky.social was gracious enough to shout out my upcoming EP, Debt. Thank you, Jonathan! Check out TFN yesterday!

Here’s some music news from me: check out Red Star Sky’s newest track “Fascist Blues” from the forthcoming EP, Debt, out on May 1st. Proceeds will benefit the amazing Letters To Santa charity.

Basically, Allen couldn’t take it anymore. Which isn’t surprising. It’s not just that Trump’s atrocities continue to mount. It’s that the dominant language of opposition today is impotence." @jonathanlarsen.bsky.social

Wow! More of this!

Any and every day.

Attention UPMC: maybe next time be brave and do the right thing. Reinstate gender affirming care now!

Do you follow Dem politics and inside baseball? If so, this read is worth its weight in zeros and ones.

NEW: We released a report showing that our country's current approach to traffic safety has failed to reduce roadway deaths while imposing harsh financial and human costs. Using traffic stops as a policing tool is ineffective for public safety, and excessive stops threaten our civil liberties.

give jd vance some credit. he couldn't get regime change in iran, but he did in hungary.

A stockbroker working on behalf of Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth reportedly looked into a multimillion-dollar investment in the defense industry just weeks before we attacked Iran. www.levernews.com/klarna-sued-...

Deeply and daily.

@jonathanlarsen.bsky.social probably nothing

Whoa!

2 headlines from this week

You cannot tell voters (accurately) this is a fascist regime that is hell bent on destroying us - let alone rely on it (as Dems are) as your GOTV while also voting yourselves to enable the regime.

Shameful
