Reposting this since the subject is a bit time critical: after 20 years of publishing, the next 16 days are the last chance for folks to pick up any of the 70 exclusive Babylon 5 books from Jaclyn Easton's www.b5books.com before the doors close forevermore.

Mike Johnson does not think that one of his own people beating a woman is serious? What if the man owned a bike and was naked under his clothes, Mike? Could we talk about it then?

JV Veep is right. More of the stupid stuff he did should be on the Internet.

People experiencing miscarriages in states with abortion bans told us they wished they had known what to expect and how to advocate for themselves. We created this guide for anyone who finds themselves in the same position 👇 (Published Dec. 2024)

these people know how extreme they are

Hard to convince people you're the good guys when you have the nice woman playing Ghostbusters on a clarinet (with the band) face down on the street and arrested.

From a quick scan of my feed, I think Peace Prize lady may be a milkshake duck.

Y’all do know the correct response to a Black person pointing out the racism of white people is not NO WE’RE NOT, it’s keeping your lips zipped & moving on, right?

"In Fourteen Hundred Ninety Two, Columbus sailed the ocean blue..." or whatever. First off, the only Christopher i acknowledge is Wallace. However, Columbus Day has a much darker origin story you may not know. Let's talk Columbus Day 🧵

1. You wanna know what's interesting about Pepsi making this decision? Pepsi literally made its fortune off the backs of Black people. (short 🧵) Both Pepsi & Coke were created in the late 19th century. But while Coca-Cola was going on to become America's drink, Pepsi was bankrupt in the 1920s.

So basically this is Iranian Hostage Crisis 2.0, just with a 9-month delay in the payoff for no particular reason.

ICE agents blocked an ambulance that was trying to take an injured protester to hospital. "We are still not being allowed to leave by ICE officers.” an EMT said on radio When driver tried to get out, an agent yelled, "DON’T YOU EVER DO THAT AGAIN, I WILL SHOOT YOU" www.wweek.com/news/2025/10...

ICE agents blocked ambulance from transferring an injured protester to the hospital, even going as far as to threaten to arrest and shoot the driver. This crosses so many lines. EMS and first responders need to be free to help whoever needs it. Delays cost lives.

Don't want to tag anyone because that would be wrong in this case but on behalf of white women who recognize that not all lanes are ours, I'm sorry that, once again, one of us can't just STFU for a moment. #protip If it says, "only Black responses" then it's not for you to reply.

Every straight, white, cis, het male writer will eventually be outed as horrible. Every single one.

Handcuffs might help, too. I mean, why are we letting men wander around off-leash to begin with?

When I was in elementary school, they took our phone number for Nixon's western white house. I called it once and got some official sounding person, freaked out, and hung up. Still know the number.

When they tell you they plan on throwing out the constitution, believe them.

Portland had a Naked Bike Ride today, thousands of people (most not naked, it was cold and rainy). First, inflatable costumes and dancing, now this! The crime spree continues!

The inflatables have made it to Broadview.

This is a great thread. While reading it, consider how little time it takes to create a shirt. Depending on the design and the skill of the creator, let's say 1.5-4 hours. I'm good and can do basic buttoned shirt in under an hour. Multiply that times your wardrobe. 1/2

Hand Vance an envelope with cash on the air. Tell him it's for his services. See if he keeps it.

This starts with question about when Puppet said ending war in Ukraine would help get him into heaven. He also says, of Putin, "I was the apple of his eye"

my father (a retired white engineer who has been in oklahoma for 40 years) is my weathervane for what normal people who just watch the news periodically think, and he was like “so, they want to call the guard out on a bunch of kids wearing frog suits? is that true?”, the admin is losing the PR war

Why is nobody asking what the heaven blocking sin is? Good lord, it's right there. Ask a preacher at his church what sort of thing leaves one at "don't think there's anything that's gonna get me in heaven." He's admitting something really bad here. What is it?

Someone needs to stroke Puppet's ego and explore this. "Surely all the things you are proud of balance any sin you think might keep you out of heaven. What's the most unforgivable thing you've done?" and keep cameras rolling.

She never saw why something could not be. Another reason he loved her.

Portland is burning, people!

I was with you at the beginning of your journey. It is right that I should follow you to its end.

People buying Musk's products live on the knife's edge, Bezos, too?

Not the main takeaway from the article – a sidenote, really – but this is why the Internet of Things concept terrifies me.

Microsoft used to do this. My entire unit started with a list of time wasting crap mgmt had us do for no reason, like that email.

Now they are arresting the Folk Song Army. m.youtube.com/watch?v=9tDZ...

Women* who have been in a relationship with an abusive man* recognize this externalization and transfer of rage. He* fucked up but it's somehow her* fault. Even when she* was the original victim of his* bad behavior. *mostly

Ever watched toddlers playing and one hurts themself and then hits the other one as if it was their fault?

It's only a mistake because we noticed and raised hell. Otherwise, it's just Puppet letting his thugs destroy our country.

Waiting for Puppet to invent antiPedo as a new terrorist group.

just saw video claiming antifa is 70% trans people which shows how out of touch they are

This is the office that would handle Hatch Act complaints, i.e. the federal law that prohibits using the federal government for partisan political activity

Nobody Dares Call it Illegal?

Am convinced Puppet is being fed a special, just for him, version of Bread and Circuses. Would it be hard to convince him PDX is burning? Or that antifa is an incorporated not-for-profit NGO?

It’s tradition that when you see the frogs, you show them respect 🫡 (Someone should do the Creed cut with the footage)

"President Trump continued to describe Portland as a city on fire Friday even as residents enjoyed the first fall rain and the lone demonstrator at the city’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement building was dressed as a pink Care Bear." Sometimes there is a good sentence or two in the NYT.

Reading that the new Tron film has a bit of fan service. This seems weird to me since that requires fans.

ONCE AGAIN FOR THOSE IN THE BACK: REPUBLICANS JUST STOPPED U.S. MILITARY MEMBERS FROM BEING PAID.

NEW ICE recruits get $50,000 sign on bonuses and are eligible for student loan forgiveness But your active duty military starving? Yikes.

some days are 'be flippant or vomitscream?'

To translate Anne Frank into American, Mr Rogers specifically, Look for the helpers.
