"Everyone keeps telling me Threads is the new Black Twitter ... If we cannot build our own platforms, if we continue to farm the digital plantations of Meta -- do we actually want to be free?" - @thehost.theinvite.us via @stream.place stream.place/thehost.thei...

Sweet Potato pie

The 54yo white man that owns Black Twitter is a trillionaire The 42yo white man that owns BlackThreads is a billionaire All odds against us but we’ll still prevail in making a safer and more open internet for everyone.

Damn you right haah this is a spot on take

In Galveston and across our nation, Juneteenth celebrates freedom for the enslaved. However, there has been no reconciliation for more than 240 years of enslavement, and there can be no reconciliation without reparations. Justice demands reparations.

Okay, it's time for a Moist Owlette™ timeline cleanse. Today's moist owlette is "Owlfredo" at the Stone Zoo in Stoneham, Massachusetts. She's an Eastern screech owl (Megascops asio) & Animal Ambassador with a big personality. (📷: @zoonewengland.bsky.social via IG)

I do like this!

Welp - we knew this was coming.

This is the weirdest summer start - constant rain, tornado warnings, wind whipping around... Chicago we gotta get it together. My lawn and garden is loving it, but if I don't get to let the girls out properly....idek

Inflation just hit a three-year high. Gas is up over 40% in a year. Groceries at their biggest price hike in years. Trump’s chaos is driving this. In Illinois, we’re fighting in the other direction: eliminating the grocery tax, capping insulin costs, lowering energy bills.

Listen this Mayor is actually killing the game - love his support for the ppl and keeping boots on the ground

I'm not even a sports person but this Knicks / Spurs situation got me hyped. Bing Bong and whatnot

Whatever you think is next I can promise it isn't what's next.

We didn’t need to know this

I was not ready for Obsession

Ok I was not ready for the opener of Obsession. I...I got three cats

I'm not even from NY and knows this is insane

You see the vision

Illinois is holding a 10-day sales tax holiday for all your back-to-school needs. Under my administration, we’re putting working families first and delivering much-needed relief.

She’s baaaack…😜

Need Alton Brown and Good Eats back on the tube.

i remember the convo we had on here a few weeks ago about how studs/dykes seek male validations to the point where they go against their own well being and this just proves it.

I need ppl to have more whimsy when it comes to movies. Mando and Gorgu was a cute and fun movie. Not everything needs to be a deep think piece. Have fun folks.

mark fuhrman and oj noticing each other in that lower room today

Tom Kane, the prolific voice actor known for his work as Professor Utonium and HIM on “Powerpuff Girls,” “Star Wars,” and much more, has died at 64

Ring the bell because for the first time ever: Jim Cramer is stunned silent. Just like the rest of us, he’s seeing the President commit insider trading right in front of our very eyes.

she’s in oakland, someone tell interpol

Today marks the 78th anniversary of the Nakba (catastrophe), during which more than 750,000 Palestinians were expelled and over 400 villages were destroyed to establish the State of Israel.

The Supreme Court just preserved mifepristone access for now. The American people shouldn’t constantly be worried that one ruling could strip away access to medication that was medically proven safe decades ago. I’ve been and will always fight for your reproductive freedom.

Blue states & blue cities are keeping the country afloat. Red states can’t make it in their own, they have to rely on tax dollars from cities like Chicago to pay the bills.

Ok ppl are hating when they say MKII isn't good. This is such a fun movie.

i was talking about the intersectionality problems white leftists have and here comes Bernie Sanders serving up literally the perfect example of the problem i'm Black and if Bernie asked me what i stand for I'd say "civil rights and anti-racism" and then smoke would pour out of his ears

Proper use of the baby dad excuse c bye girl

Surely all will be resolved if people just vote harder, right

Weirdos show themselves so easily. You are weird, giving predator, and a raggedy lame.

Harry clearly don’t want no part in the conversation beyond the explanation he really didn’t owe anyone in the first place, Bamz ain’t been online in 2 days, and this lady just beating around the bush like the dirt owe her money. LET’S MOVE ON.

Dumb ish like this is why I block ppl. Bffr, y'all comment on ppls appearance too much and have a cartoon as an avi.

Hit the hide button to hide any post instantly on the blacksky.community client thanks to Blacksky community member @jacky.wtf This is what building in community looks like.

silhouette looks like someone trying to get the most out of their toothpaste

She was blocking left and right today. These are the progressives talking heads they want us to listen to.

Lol not her blocking me...wow maybe stand on your argument. White ppl really be fragile.

This is a wild response to an outlandish take... honestly this is why we are where we are. It's vote for whoever might do what I want. Hate that for this world and even more for my people.

Here he go lying again…. This is a sickness! 😭😭😭😭😭

The moment immigrants actually start taking jobs, it’s white ones taking jobs from Black citizens. We’re living in a fucking South Park episode.

Sam Neill has announced he is cancer free after 5 years of battling blood cancer. “It’s time I did another movie.”

Shout-out to the Bond movies for making an evil tech founder a super-villain back in 1985, at least 25-30 years before the rest of us caught on.

Pocket watching women is crazy but that’s why I #play on that phone 😭
