South Carolina has ANOTHER disgusting abortion bill S.1095 coming up for a hearing tomorrow morning April 14th at 9am. Women, I and the young people at Lander University have your back! #NewSC

every pic now is just the lawn mower meme

oh no they are pumping the ai data into the capitol

Ironically, now that I actually want to see some crazy stuff, the fact that I blocked everyone who posts ugly memes is working against me.

18, two 19 and 21 year old. Two of them not registered but gave me their word after talking to them they will get registered to vote. Young people are going to play a vital role in this election. It's our time. #NewSC

Spent the day in Hampton at a parade honoring Dr. King. No scripts. No filters. Just real conversations with people about what needs to change. That’s how you build something real. johnsonforsc.com #PeoplePowered #SCPolitics

The recent Alzheimer's Awareness Walk & Event in Greenwood was powerful, touching and in my opinion, very effective. I will always stand by my sisters, caregivers, and the family and friends who have been on the front lines dealing with loved ones who have been affected by Alzheimer's and dementia.

Sunday’s national championship could be her final game with the Gamecocks.

“They were going to come. It was going to be a big thing. We were going to go to the beach right after. All those plans had to go out the window because they said ICE would be here."

Last year, they said the resistance was dead. Now our pro-democracy movement is surging — and the midterms are our next big electoral test. Please pitch in if you can to help us power the grassroots organizing that will defeat Republicans across the country and win back Congress.

Actual primary is June 9th! Vote early if you can!

Over on Mastodon, I heard the rest of social media is a little bonkers tonight. So I decided to come over here and watch, because it’s a kind of bonkers I love to see.

We don’t need any April fools jokes. We are living one big ass joke.

I just finished reading True Sex by Emily Skidmore, about the lives of trans men around the turn of the 20th century in rural and small town America. Fascinating book, so many common assumptions upended, es how local community/newspaper response was often so different from national narratives. 👍

We’re going to gather & sing #noKings

On the one hand, Nazi bar. On the other hand, a chance to poison AI with disinformation. OK, I’ll come back. But I’m warning all you actual people: more than half of what I’m going to say is lies. #bluesky

@stephenking.bsky.social I just learned that the curse in Thinner, which has been stuck in my head for decades, is actually Swedish. Clever you.

At one point there was a sizable science communications community here. If you’re still around, here’s a great undergraduate internship opportunity. #science #scicoms ewvl.fa.us8.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/Candid...

While Donald Trump and RFK Jr. push conspiracy theories over science, my administration is forging a path that puts our people first. Illinois will adopt the American Academy of Pediatrics' vaccine schedule to keep families safe.

Since this is now a Nazi bar, I’m going quiet. Don’t expect any more posts from this account for the foreseeable future. joinmastodon.org

You may not know her name now, but after this interview, you won't forget it. Eliana Pinckney reflects on the death of her father in the Charleston Massacre. This is a conversation you don't want to miss. Listen now! https://youtu.be/DBoDxwm2mIo?si=IfE3i8-hR4IXVJjz

When wil Bluesky be bought by a Trump-adjacent autocrat or succumb to autocrat forces and cease to be able to pretend to be an alternative to corporate social media? Reply with your answer: a) Within this year. b) Before Trump’s term ends. c) Within 5 years. d) Sometime after 2030. e) […]

Maga definitely loves this stuff. Though I'm reminded of a sea change that happened in Birmingham when the little girls were killed in the church bombing. There was a certain tipping point with most people, where there was no way their conscience could tolerate it. Something went click.

Since last night, 16,800 fans have cancelled their FIFA World Cup 2026 tickets. In addition FIFA has scheduled an emergency meeting next week to address the escalating protesting and how it relates to safety and political concerns.

My parents just moved from Minnesota to New York and (being lifelong Minnesotans) very politely did not say anything when their new neighbors were complaining about the cold at 20 degrees *above* zero, but did relate the story to us

To any ICE agents reading this who are from down south—you have never experienced anything like this cold. Our European climate equivalent is literally Stalingrad. It will hurt to breathe. You will be outside in it. So will we, but we are used to it. Next week is what will break you.

Thank you for hosting nearly 1,200 events in all 50 states and DC this weekend to honor Renee Nicole Good. We will continue to demand accountability for ICE’s horrific killing of Renee and all the lives ICE has taken and destroyed. #ICEOutForGood

Join us in Augusta on Sunday! #ICEoutForGood @indivisiblecsra.bsky.social

We will not sit by while violence goes unanswered. We demand accountability for Renee Nicole Good’s killing. We demand an end to ICE and CBP raids. This weekend — we turn grief into collective action. #ICEOutForGood Find an event near you👇 www.mobilize.us?tag_ids=29132

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Minnesota investigators say they can't access evidence after fatal ICE shooting and FBI won't work jointly on probe. @reuters.com

An official NYT response means this is clearly a sore spot for them and people should keep hitting the target

@dleeturner.bsky.social shared this photo on her FB page. This happens every Sunday in Simpsonville, SC.

Apparently it's #NationalBirdDay! I didn't know about it because every day is bird day to me ❤️ But in honor of the day, here is some of my art that features threatened species #BirdArt #SciArt #Watercolor #FineArt #AnimalArt

do i know anyone who farms their own potatoes? i’ve been trying to figure out if i have an actual potato intolerance or if it’s the stuff they spray on basically all potatoes you can buy, even small farms and my ground is literally rock so i can’t try it out without a significant investment

Aquarium/terrarium pro tip: if they’ve gone to the trouble of putting a picture of a lizard or a fish on it, they will triple the price of the item compared to what it is at the hardware store.

The situation with animated GIFs and alt text is complicated on this website. Let's start with the most basic thing to know: the best practice approach to animated GIFs is the same as for other images (files ending in .gif, .jpg, .png, .bmp, .tiff, etc., but—importantly—not video files).

The sjoufert is a fiery ghost in Flemish folklore who often appears near swamps. In one tale, people who lived near a swamp whistled at him. They fled into their house as the very angry ghost flew behind them. He left four paw prints on their door that never disappeared. #PhantomsFriday

The people of DC want to know if @cmbrookepinto.bsky.social will be supporting Ward 2's Fluffy Gray to succeed @mayorbowser.dc.gov

I hope they're able to reopen the Powder Magazine in Charleston. It's a remarkable building. It was built in 1713. www.postandcourier.com/business/tou...

Swagger isn't what I'm looking for in a healthcare company🤨

I know you’re probably being sarcastic, but this is exactly the attitude that kept me from pursuing a career in the arts for years. Now, in late middle age, I am finally doing what I’m good at, and I’m happier and more financially secure than I ever was working tech jobs.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted. If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

People are still out demonstrating against CBP at Manolo’s in Charlotte. They’re blasting soul music at the moment. #ncpol #charlottr
