I'm getting real tired of having my Rights (as laid of in the Bill of Rights) infringed upon and having these Charlie Kirk gargling motherfuckers do nothing or not even notice. They're going to "just ask questions" until they, too are in an oven. Please, no one shed tears or try to save them. Karma

@burbnbougie.bsky.social my partner was just telling me about how there's new rules around cops who are using their personal phones to record protesters. now the phone itself is now able to be subpoenaed. As someone trying to be a girl's girl, I see this as an opportunity to give back to women ...

Does anyone remember that Zelensky was once his country's Jon Stewart? When there's low hanging fruit right in front of him and he DOESN'T look right into the camera like it's The Office, I sure do. He wouldn't even have to speak a word. Irony is a universal language, comrade.

Part of yesterday's sadistic E.O. involves tracking homeless people on the sex offender's registry. So they're only a danger if they can't afford a mansion, is that the deal? Cause that sure seems like the deal.

It's become clear that this administration is just a protracted war on anybody who's read a book without pictures in it. It's a miracle we're all still getting up and going to work every morning. The psychological drain is the point, and I'm increasingly grateful to the people who are still decent.

The actual "American Party" is older than Elon Musk. I have said it before, I will say it again: This is "gaypop" all over again.

I see, so Musk basically just announced that he's going to start a new kind of music and he will call it "gaypop." Got it.

I'm just gonna keep re-posting this until my fingers bleed. bsky.app/profile/jyse...

I recently saw a comments section about ecology where a vast swath of ppl genuinely thought that it would be better for the earth if everyone abandoned cities to live a cottagecore style life. Sorry, that's bull from those invested in land sales, trad wife sales, forced birthing, etc.

This administration is TRYING to cause a food famine. Not only have there been a systematic dismantling of food protections thus far, but attacking CA and specifically LA is a GREAT way to disrupt food production in the U.S. Like tell me you work for outside forces without telling me, right?

"Death is not the elephant in the room, Death is the room." This is why I participate, begrudgingly, in this Life that I was given, although I did not ask for it. Death is the room, the windows, the curtains.

Dear Slayers, This letter is 5 years old, but still relevant to your battles. Open it when you are ready. Much Love, as Always, You Watcher

This is what I do during Trump years; work on resource lists. Please comment about any out of date links or suggested additions.

We've allowed rage bait to dull our appropriate sense or outrage and anger. This is why regressives obsess over trans people so much, as hateful people will rage that these ppl exist & well-meaning ppl will knee-jerk rage that they are questions trans existence in this way. Take power, scroll past

Trumpism is a CULT, so it's important for the rest of us to self educate on CULTS. Learn what "Deconstruction" means in terms of leaving cults, esp fundamentalist christianity. This channel is a very good place to start: www.youtube.com/@CultstoCons...

I am old enough to remember little kids running around with these, their lips and faces stained an orangey-pink from an hours long make out sesh with this plastic alien. It was so weird to catch their eyes as they gripped it with both hands and fed their face to this monstrosity. Happy May 4th

Horrifying. Musk is a traitor, a racist, a deadbeat dad and a welfare queen. We should ask him to leave instead. And tax 99% of his income on his way out.

I'm not mad, just disappointed. And also mad.

Maybe THIS time everyone will see it Many are willing to comply with segregation as long as you don't call it segregation Thank you for your time This destruction of government announcement is brought to you by the Liquid-bling king, apartheid Clide & the "good" people at tesla STAY WOKE!

🧵 Rome wasn’t razed in a day: 🔥 While the US goes to shit on a turd sandwich, it’s hard not to get lost in all the ways US-ians are getting fucked. Let’s reflect back on some of the meaningful ways you can get active & stay active at combating this new regime, and causing a whole lot of trouble.

My latest: Musk’s South African White Male Fragility Why does Elon want USAID to ‘die?’ Probably because it helped end Apartheid. www.thealtmedia.com/p/musks-sout...

"leaky baggy blue" sure is a poetic way to put a deadly oversight

ppl are concerned the gov will come for the ADA & ♿️ ppl, after blaming for the plane crashes. but they already were coming for us in 2020 & when they let covid spread unmitigated. & all of you who chose not to wear a mask anymore are complicit. you didn’t care then, & a lot of you still don’t care.

Anyone who believes Musk’s line that the government doesn’t turn down claims has never applied for disability

Personally, I think that this is a strategy to deflect attention from other things. He's willing to gamble with the lives of his constituents because we're nothing to him.

Wow, it seems Trump firing people on charge of airplane safety actually caused planes to crash into each other within a week. Maybe those jobs were there for a reason and had been performed adequately 🫠

2/2 We shoot ourselves in the feet when we as white people think that having Black people in our world is so they can work a service for us, or so that we "allow" them to succeed. WE have our lives benefitted in so many ways when our lives include others. Other people expand our joy, safety, love.

When my family was in the ICU in Dec while one of us was dying our favorite nurse was a Black woman. Programs that help minority people, especially Black people, especially Black women, in the U.S. are NOT *just* for those individuals. It serves ALL of the community. 1/2

working on a lil something dedicated to el*n xoxo can’t wait to show the finished project 🫶🏻

You may have seen this image of Elon Musk's Nazi salute projected onto Tesla's Gigafactory in Berlin. But you may not know that last year, anarchists occupied the adjacent forest to block the expansion of the Gigafactory and used direct action to shut down power to it. crimethinc.com/TeslaGermany

Here’s a list of resources you can use to get started building your own affinity group. And as always, we’ll be here to help. bsky.app/profile/prid...

What do you want to bet DJT will take credit for the ceasefire and the tiktok ban?

It's not a coincidence that the platform that young people use is the one brought down right before a DJT presidency. If the concern was foreign influence or security, FB would be the obvious target, but have to let the old folks fart around in the B.O. cloud of misinformation from P.U.tin, right?

I know this post is of limited use RIGHT NOW (LA area fires) but if you live in an area where there's fires regularly (ALL of CA) you need to get air filters and masks BEFORE you need them. When the fires are raging there's slim chance you'll be able to score what you need. Good luck!

I've been absent for a few weeks because my family suffered a few deaths back to back, followed by another couple strokes of bad luck, so I'm calling this time of Holiday Bad Luck 3 Days of Loss and 5 Bummer Things TW: Death/Dying I'm hoping to at least pass on some thoughts that might be useful:

I believe there should be more House music made using MRIs. I do understand that House now doesn't seem to be what I thought House was when I was a newly minted adult, though. You kids stay off my lawn. *shakes fist*

"Giving Tuesday" The day my Alma Mater sends me an email asking for $$$ to "support students." You guys mean the same students that you escalated violence against this spring when they started off peacefully protesting for freedom for Palestine? Power to the People! Free Palestine! F U Cal Poly!

This thread is pretty great! MY experience with prepping and learning homesteading is this: static prepping is less useful and only for one time emergencies, and maybe not even that. Earthquake, hurricane, tornado, fire, getting laid off, etc. But those things may ruin your supplies. Therefore...

PLEASE tell your friends and family NOT to fall for the Musky SCAM asking for medical records. He asks patients for records b/c that way doesn't violate HIPAA and he doesn't have to pay anyone. What a cheapskate! He's promising desperate people cures and progress, when in reality he's looking for $

I'm def taking: your cough drops, scissors, garage door openers, batteries out of remote controls, tissue boxes, fabric softener (it's bad for you & the environment,) and every bottle of lotion I can find. Oh, and charging cords, but only for Mac because... I'm biased. No Mac, no problem.

And there it is.

This is Matt Kresling, film-maker, uke musician, singer/songwriter. He writes films that I would call emotionally informative. They give you a peek at what people in his position are feeling. They are personal and political. Range in scope from young adult debt, to world travel, to revolution.

My dad makes friends with the homeless people near us and he was telling me about this lady’s story this morning….She found her son after he killed himself in the bathroom and her husband left her. She was so grief stricken, she couldn’t work or anything anymore and lost it all.

Hmmm mmmm. The maga whites are saying the quiet part out loud. But let us not think that liberal whites don’t have similar biases and believe similarly in numerous instances. I hope we’ve learned that just demonizing MAGA whites and not holding liberal whites ALSO accountable leads us to this.

Despite thousands of miles per years, owning several bikes, and my experience level ranging from "full time car-free urbanist" to "professional full time cyclist"... I ride on the sidewalk when I need to, always respectfully of it being pedestrian space, but there nonetheless. Anyone should. 🙏

I don’t feel joy when I hear “Carol of the Bells.” It’s painful. Ukraine gave this to the world, but most don’t care or understand its story. They don’t know about Leontovych, don’t know about Bakhmut. They enjoy the melody but ignore the suffering behind it. People just don’t care. #UkrainianView
