Moment of the yesterday’s strike by three Storm Shadow/SCALP missiles on the Russian Voronezh Semiconductor Devices Plant.

Whatever you do, don’t plant lots and lots and lots of bamboo 🎋🎍 very very very close to as many data centers as you can find. It will damage foundations, wrap around underground cooling pipes, and cause severe facility damage.

Thanks, Joe Biden. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

Be careful everyone. It would be horrible to see this proliferate like its extremely tenacious cousin: Japanese Knotweed.

💥 Crimea. Locals are reporting about missile strike gas pipeline in the Krasnogvardeisky district.

This is wild.

saw the video of the woman sobbing over her dead dogs body after the lapd murdered him. every day cops kill people and kids. and her sobbing over her 2 year old DOODLES BODY was so jarring bc who the fuck is shooting a goldendoodle, let alone TWENTY COPS for one noise complaint. ACAB

18 U.S.C. § 241 “Conspiracy Against Rights.” It makes it a crime for two or more people to conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate someone in the exercise of rights protected by the Constitution or federal law. www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/...

Just thinking - the press mocked W, Obama and Biden for riding bicycles. But you have never seen shitler on a bike. I bet he doesn't know how to ride one. But just for fun....I will donate $1,000 to the charity of his choice if he rides one for 5 miles. #veteransagainsttrump

Listen to your children read. Read to your children. Read alongside your children. Take them to libraries. Talk about what reading means to you & what it can unlock in them. Tell them it doesn’t matter if it’s comics, magazines or books as long as they’re engaged with the written word.

Russian night attacks killed eight civilians in Kharkiv region, including a 22-year-old pregnant woman. Eighteen more were wounded, among them three children. Kharkiv recorded at least 11 drone impacts, while a missile strike hit Chuhuiv. #Ukraine

A growing memorial for Riley O’Neil near 32nd and Halsted.

Upgrading the South Halsted bike lane with be a major political fight. It's absolutely worth doing, but there may be another solution for part of the corridor. One block east of Halsted, Emerald Ave is a two-lane one-way neighborhood street from 26th to 43rd. Removing a lane there would be painless.

I guess they got the non-woke president they were looking for.

Another really long day. I am doing everything I can to spread the word about the threats to democracy and how to fight back. You can help me by subscribing to Democracy Docket for free and sharing its content. Thanks. bit.ly/4a7l1TR

We need a constitutional amendment that retroactively establishes all federal employees across all three branches of the government as fiduciaries of the American people’s money. Steal this post. Pass it on. #Politics, #Policy #Democracy

More images from occupied Luhansk after Ukrainian drone strikes. Meanwhile there are additional reports of explosions in occupied Mariupol. #Ukraine

Yesterday, progressive Dems won some races, liberal Dems won some, and moderate Dems won some. Which shows that we’re all needed right now. I’m tired of certain folks acting like it’s got to be their way of the highway. Because a coalition of different kinds of Democrats is how we win.

Everything is awful, so have a cute puppy picture. Tiny Pup doesn’t want you to be sad.

Slow down cars and everyone benefits.

Every year on ALS night, the Phillies sell mystery grab bags ($40 this year) with autographed balls and caps. Proceeds go towards the regional ALS organization Here’s my haul this year!

Did you know that libraries are visited over 1.3 billion times a year which is 10 times more than MLB (68 million), NFL (17 million), NBA (22 million), Hockey (21 million), and Nascar (4 million) combined? Yet, we're begging for funding... action.everylibrary.org/but_nobody_u...

The Supreme Court didn’t give gays the right to marry. Trans women of color throwing bricks at the cops did. Happy Pride Month. Power to the People. Pictured: Ms. Marsha P. Johnson

I hope he doesn’t shit the bed like Arsenal did in the Champions League Final.

Your sex is none of the state's business. They don't get to tell you what it is, and there is literally no reason for sex markers to appear on driver's licenses or any other form of government ID.

Trump supports men in women's sports.

The Arsenal. Your Premier League champions.

@lakebiglake.bsky.social Happy Saturday!

@aoc.bsky.social Let’s work on an amendment that establishes every federal employee across all three branches as fiduciaries of the American people’s money.

BREAKING: A Russian attack drone has struck a residential building in Galați, Romania, according to reports from the scene. Romania is a NATO member state. Initial reports indicate multiple people were injured.

Brilliant.

So sick of news saying ICE arrested people. ICE hasn't arrested anyone. They've kidnapped a bunch, though.

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social @mayor.nyc.gov We should be discussing subsidized MORTGAGES, not subsidized housing. Cities like NY and Chicago should use subsidy vouchers for mortgages, not rent.

lol

Reading this extraordinary book now. Got it from the library. If you aren’t reading U.S. history written by Black Women, you should ask yourself why you’re reading U.S. history at all. I can’t recommend this highly enough. 10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. #BookSky

300 people held without due process inside Delaney Hall ICE Detention in Newark are on a hunger strike. 2 demands: 1) Freedom for the most vulnerable among them, sick, elderly etc. 2) A visit with NJ Governor @mikiesherrill.bsky.social SHARE www.nj.com/essex/2026/0...

Hey @mayor.nyc.gov Make these fines increase per violation annually for corporations. You’ll either see exponential growth of revenue or rapid compliance.

@mayorofchicago.bsky.social maybe do something similar…

I would describe it as a "blow to workers", not a blow to the mayor.

@briantylercohen.bsky.social We need to discuss a constitutional amendment and the process to get one passed.

This is only the beginning. He has no plans to leave office or allow free elections. Nor are his plans hidden—they're all unfolding in plain sight. The Insurrection never ended and the Christofascists won't stop until our democracy is gone. Choose who you'll be in this moment.
