MIA! How are you my friend? That's a beautiful axe. Both the guitar and the bass are lovely. Bass player using "flat wound" strings which was big in the 60's and early 70's. There's only one Hash!

@rollawayjim.bsky.social HALP! I need your musicology expertise:

Protestors shown stopping more instances of looting of community businesses. It is also noted that the would be looters across multiple videos in different areas are wearing matching outfits. #3E

We feed you. They hunt us.

5 years ago: “An incalculable loss” Today: Banning masks and restricting vaccine access

Academic freedom in the United States has found itself periodically under siege, but the current attacks from the federal government raise a new level of alarm. nyer.cm/u405qvQ

Pretty sure if the Biden administration had welcomed a social media influencer who'd been banned by Twitter for sharing child sex abuse material -- with his own watermark on it, no less! -- we'd probably be hearing some complaints from the right.

I'm just a poor country political historian and not some big city media fella, but it *does* seem like a slightly big deal that the leader of the United States presented comically faked "evidence" in the Oval Office to justify his power to disappear ordinary people into a Central American prison?

This is in line with the weird sexual insecurity eugenics ideology of the right-wing. It is contemptible and weak for a man to care for children who do not carry his genes, while virtuous and masculine for a man (like Musk) to have multiple genetic offspring he treats like chattel or never sees.

This is the dollar since “liberation day”

yeah man, please make my 85 year old great aunt prove her citizenship to vote in rural georgia, this definitely isn’t reminiscent of anything in the american past

Not a single word to help the 33m small businesses in this country. Not from anyone in the administration. So many buy from China, and don't have alternatives. So many didn't have the cash to front run the tariffs and buy inventory

Not being allowed to hand water to people in line to vote no matter who they are voting for, while being allowed to hand people million dollar checks to get their vote, is the most American thing ever.

🤣

JD Vance holds a JD from Yale Law (and so do I). Presumably, he knows that he is disregarding the law here, and being deceptive about the protections it affords. (1/6)

Cory Booker

My friend @booker.senate.gov has been on the floor for quite awhile now. So I went to go help.

ECONOMY IN FREE FALL 📉 The Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta's GDPNow model now estimates real GDP growth for Q1 2025 in the United States to be -3.7% — plunging from its previous estimate of -2.8% on March 28.

We’re going to annex Canada and invade Greenland but we can’t request return of an innocent man from El Salvador.

At many (most?) universities, international students pay full freight (often allowing the school to offer financial aid and scholarships to U.S. students). Terrorizing them will no doubt decrease int’l enrollment, hitting higher ed’s bottom line. Which is the point.

NYU canceled a planned speech by the former president of Doctors Without Borders because she planned to discuss the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and cuts to US AID. This is what actual campus censorship looks like.

This thread is WILD. It appears as though the tattoos pictured in Trump’s Tren de Aragua checklist for deportation were all lifted from UK tattoo artists’ Instagram pages. Not a single one is from an actual gang member.

Gosh. If only there were an historical analogue we could study to learn about the horrors of rounding people up without due process and sending them to torture camps in other countries.

the Dunkin’ logo has never felt more accurate

The most obvious lesson to draw from the leaked Signal chat is that these people really are morons. It's not a public act, it's not a schtick, there's not some secret back room where they drop the facade. They are genuinely stupid, incompetent people.

Bennie is safe and sound, picking her up from the vet. Tumor ext, magic act performed by the vets 💥🤛🏽❤️🙏🏽 @cgshort.bsky.social @miaculpas.bsky.social @rollawayjim.bsky.social @christineparini.bsky.social thank you all for the support 🙏🏽

i feel like i’m seeing a lot of moral flexibility and i just want to say that it’s not actually necessary to sacrifice your beliefs in order to succeed.

I've noticed the doom and gloom in the community so here's a first response: thehappinessnerd.wordpress.com/2025/02/23/h... Stay safe out there 🫶🏻

It’s a long “memorandum,” but it’s essentially telling Pam Bondi and Kristi Noem to go after lawyers who challenge the federal government — which is many lawyer’s jobs. It’s basically a catch-all “let’s Paul Weiss whoever pisses us off” memo.

Tesla Chicago. Every major city that has a Tesla dealership is seeing things like this. It’s terrible for the brand.

On Friday, lawyers for Griffin laid out their case for retroactively disqualifying 65,000 ballots, disenfranchising tens of thousands of registered voters and overturning the election results and Riggs’s victory. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

From a source: “Just had a co-presenter for a buildings research conference bow out. She’s a dual citizen and the FBI came knocking to ask her about her involvement in coauthoring chunks of the Paris Agreement. Climate science is being literally (and I mean literally) criminalized.”

The fact that the corporate legacy media is even having this event shows how little they understand the moment we are in and how little they intend to fight back. Support fearlessly independent media.

OK, gonna throw this spicy bomb out there. If you're fortunate enough to have disposable income, then right now it is your duty to use that income wisely. You have agency over how you spend it and you should own how you spend it. Your decisions do, in fact, affect stock prices of big corporations.
