#YesWeCan, America, #YesWeCan. We just have to want it badly enough...

@faeriviera.bsky.social @cutiepuppyfire.bsky.social and Shami joined me for this super romantic movie that is GOALS. www.buzzsprout.com/1777630/epis...

"rich dipshit owner doesn't understand the industry he's bought into and clumsily destroys what made it good" feels less like a narrative unique to the washington post and more like the music that's been playing in the background of all our lives for at least 40 years

We know that 4more children from Liam's school are still in ICE custody in TX. But we still do not know how many children from MN in total have been detained by ICE.

Canadians! If you're looking for ways to aid the resistance efforts of Americans, @rachelgilmore.bsky.social compiled a resource of Canadian companies with ICE contracts. These are excellent targets for local resistance with international effects! 🧊 rachelgilmore.substack.com/p/a-list-of-...

If you're living somewhere outside the USA, one thing you can do is pressure your leaders to boycott World Cup and Olympic events here.

I keep avoiding social media so I don't burn out, which is a bad thing to do when I should be promoting my podcast more frequently, so... here's the most recent episode. www.buzzsprout.com/1777630/epis...

Organizers are calling for Governor Tim Walz to issue a statewide eviction moratorium to protect people who are unable to work due to ICE‘s terror campaign more here: www.instagram.com/reel/DT5qBPN...

So, SO important to realise this!

Reminder for everyone operating at situationally-diminished capacity.

There should be a word for the feeling "I'm shocked, but in another way I'm not shocked" because it would be pretty fitting right now

You need to have something like this which is three words or less. Medicare For All, Black Lives Matter, Abolish Ice. The Russians even did it with Peace Land Bread.

I'm so sick of seeing Senators and Representatives wringing their hands over atrocities. DO SOMETHING. "Oh, but Republicans control both Houses of Congress and the courts and the executive—" DO SOMETHING ANYWAY. TAKE SOME KIND OF ACTION, OR THIS IS JUST MORE "THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS" BS.

As you read the news today, watch who phrases the news as an "illegal invasion and regime change" versus "bringing democracy". It'll tell you everything you need to know about the news source you're reading, and frankly should decide whether you ever read them seriously again.

Ppl who are not Venezuelan listen up: You will start hearing stuff about Venezuelans wanting this or participating or something. These are deranged claims. Make no mistake, the Venezuelan govt is corrupt and evil but this isn't it. This is just more evil happening on my country that helps no one.

sending my love for venezuela and all of my venezuelan friends & mutuals. love u all. words cannot describe how fucking furious i am right now

GAVIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN

For readers who are about to lose care, I have been told that the Trans Youth Emergency Project is helping the families of trans youth contingency plan to access that care. www.transyouthemergencyproject.org

The real sign of getting old is when the songs of your childhood show up on the playlist for an office holiday party.

Everyone say happy 10th birthday to #TheForceAwakens! My release schedule methods meant that we didn’t cover it in an episode proper, but I couldn’t let the occasion go unmarked! www.buzzsprout.com/1777630/epis...

@vengeancegod.bsky.social , @dreamsrebel.bsky.social and @rhapsodyblueva.bsky.social all joined me to observe 20 years of #RevengeOfTheSith existing as 6 Degrees of Star Wars finished out the prequel trilogy. Yes, it's been 20 years. Yes, you're old. Sorry. www.buzzsprout.com/1777630/epis...

Hey, you know how I’m Like That™️ about certain stuff? Like historical costuming? And the utterly messy drama of the Tudor dynasty? And dramaturgy? Did you know there’s a movie that is designed to make me scream about all of those things?

I actually gasped when I saw that this resource guide was put out there to help folks. *That's* what I'm talking about. Librarians are the freaking best, y'all. Book it. Done.

A trailer for a movie about Neil diamond. Scored with sweet Caroline. In a Boston cinema. And maybe FIVE people did the BA BA BAs. We have failed our city.

VERY behind on posting my episodes, but i managed to this one out on time... the closest I could get to a Wizard of Oz degree 1, like I need an excuse to watch this absolute banger with @momentaryhorrors.bsky.social, @kduffy1718.bsky.social, and one of my SOs! www.buzzsprout.com/1777630/epis...

It’s Native American Heritage Month!   We’re celebrating all of the Two Spirit and Indigiqueer people in our community, along with their stories! We put together a couple lists of books focused on Indigenous perspectives that you can check out on Libby!

6 Degrees of Star Wars says that it is still Halloween! We're going by Simpsons rules! @elessar42.bsky.social , Shami, and Todd joined me for the original #TreehouseOfHorror! www.buzzsprout.com/1777630/epis...

For my newsletter, I took a deeper look at the electoral record of WelcomePAC, a centrist group that produced that 352 page document advising Democrats to moderate once again. Turns out the campaigns they work for aren't winning. www.burnsnotice.com/fire-the-con...

A small thank you to @samreich.bsky.social— because of you, I have the perfect Halloween costume for now until the end of forever. Signed, another Sam from Massachusetts

#HappyHalloween, heroes! Don't miss out on the premiere of the next Let's Be Superheroes tonight at 9:30pm ET, where Jake, @demisemme.bsky.social, and @orangerngrvideos.bsky.social will guide you through Healthcare Horror Stories! Spread the word and we'll see you there! youtu.be/UIFjdwgjKTI?...

The vibe I bring to the function

Rear Admiral George Cockburn must be having a good time watching this from his seat in hell, thinking back to August 24, 1814.

There is so much catastrophic stupidity in our system of government that is nothing more than made-up nonsense that we could simply stop doing

Like I know there are edgelord leftists out there who look down their noses at shit like No Kings but sorry you guys, the more mass protest looks fun and family-friendly, the bigger it gets and the better its chances of being broadly effective

Watch live so they're less incentivised to murder these peace activists. Even just putting the stream on in the background is helpful.

Did you want to write to @gavinnewsom.bsky.social in support of trans rights bills AB 82 AB 1084 SB 497 SB 418 SB 59 Okay Governor Gavin Newsom 1021 O Street, Suite 9000 Sacramento, CA 95814 Or call - (916) 445-2841 Or search "contact gov newsom" and fill out the form

To answer your question — most major American news outlets are not reporting on this, with their focus being largely monopolized by the US federal government shutdown. Which is salt in the egregious wound that these unjust and illicit arrests are.

KOSA is now in red alert priority. Please contact your representatives, dem and gop alike, and demand they oppose KOSA We need to turn out in numbers against this!

Republicans pitch a bad bill designed to harm people and/or make Democrats look weak if it passes, and gives them an excuse to blame Democrats for the #shutdown because they are incapable of self reflection or accountability. Fixed it for you.

you cannot dismantle oppression in this country without first dismantling racism in this country. you cannot dismantle racism in this country without first dismantling this country's core white supremacy foundation itself. Black and Native and YOUR liberation are intertwined.

Hey youths Get the fuck off TikTok because Trump just told you factually they’re gonna fuck the algorithm to turn you all into loyal Hitler Youth. And you won’t notice til you find out your personal demographic Need Not Apply.

Call Gavin Newsom's office like you called ABC/Disney/Sinclair/Nexstar

I know we keep focusing on Colbert and Kimmel as we should, but we also need to remember there are hundreds of people who work for these shows who also just lost their jobs because of this bullshit, and most of them are probably not millionaires.

"He didn't deserve it, but he did get what he thought other people deserved. we don't know who did this or why, but there is no doubt it will be weaponised against vulnerable groups in the worst of ways"

If you’re here on visa or not yet fully a citizen I would be very careful right now

Hey, a fun thing to do today is support some awesome trans and non-binary creators! 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵
