We aren't waiting until November. We aren't sitting on our hands. We're working to elect young, progressive candidates *right now* who are standing up to Trump and actually organizing in the face of ICE. Join us: secure.actblue.com/donate/comms...

NYC has some really great diners. NYT reporters don't need to leave the city for diner food! Talk to your neighbors! You're a local paper!

"ICE is out of control and beyond reform. We must fundamentally change the way we approach immigration: it’s time to abolish ICE." See, Dems? You can actually say it, and even draft legislation about it! It's possible to do!

Magnetic Poetry was the first microblog.

Bring it on, fuckos.

@aoc.bsky.social Any chance you and allies can put out an alternative list of talking points for non-cowards who want to work to salvage what's left of this country?

Did nobody have any piss to throw at them?

An example for this moment.

the counterarguments to aoc running for president are all bad to me. she's too young? our leaders are too old. america won't elect a woman? we didnt have a black president for the first 232 years until we did. she's too liberal? the right is too right wing. the time is now. now. now.

actually more people should throw piss at ice

Becoming bioluminescent with rage.

A competent opposition political party would cut together the footage of what ICE had been doing in the twin cities with Mike Johnson saying "ICE is doing what ICE is designed to do" and have it in ads all across the country

Unions and community orgs are calling for a Minnesota-wide shutdown in 10 days to protest the ferocious assault by federal immigration agents. They're saying on Jan 23, no work, no school, no shopping. SEIU Local 26, UNITE HERE Local 17, & others are supporting, w/ more to join. By me, Amie Stager

I watch the bulk of ashleythebaroness videos, despite rarely sharing them. But this one hit today. And she's right! We're not dealing with some foreign ideology. We're dealing with a uniquely American phenomenon. fascism wrapped in our own flag

I was not happy with whomever bought Bandcamp most recently and backed up my music library just in case something happened to it. I am never happier to be wrong. blog.bandcamp.com/2026/01/13/k...

If any part of you supports ICE and thinks they don't need to be abolished, but just reigned in, then you harbor some bigotry in your self and need to purge that shit. Or you're a craven dipshit who should resign from your office and let someone who integrity have a chance at it.

Any elected Dem that can't match this woman's nerve is going to be primaried.

Folks on the ground are asking me to lift this up because the need is still growing, all around Minnesota. If you can give, please do, and if you can't, please amplify!

It's worth your time to call Hilton to cancel your account with them. 1-800-446-6677. Here's why: They asked me if it was because of the ICE thing. I said it was. Then they suggested I wait a couple days to see if they were going to change course. The pressure is getting to them. Let's keep it up.

I hate the way that performative has come to mean "fake" (pejorative) in some parts of society. In fact, people LOVE performance. They attend plays, go to movies to watch people PERFORM. Performance builds community and brings joy to millions.

Is this "Obama didn't end terrible policies the right way"?

nimrod campbell and the laboratory of yakub is a 2d point-and-click adventure game written by @netscape.bsky.social and yours truly. set in the year 1936, our game follows a trio of protagonists as they race against nazis and black muslim militants to unlock the secrets of the evil scientist yakub.

What happened to all his big talk? Deflated when he found out his cops won't turn against other cops. And where does that leave the people?

If you're not making your irrational fears and an aggressive projection of false strength your whole self, are you even a man?

This is fucking intense and it's the direct result of the government's terror campaign.

Do you think he remembers being shot at? I don't think he does.

So wait... is THIS the darkest timeline?

This is a vetted fundraiser for the family of Renee Good, the woman who was killed by ICE in Minneapolis. www.gofundme.com/f/support-fo...

$50 donation to the Dem Rep/Sen who refers to them as "those pieces of shit across the aisle" I'm broke, but this also feels like a sad, safe bet.

Billy Shakes says Fuck ICE.

(Pointing to the horizon): You see the rubicon back there?

Funny to think that if DC and PR were made states, none of this would have ever happened...

A Pluribus for the rest of us.

The whole world is in deep shit right now.

The individual noodle should be referred to as a spaghettus.

Looks like ol' president crimes is still at it...

The military has no honor today.

We are damned as a country of cowards; unable to remove a despicable person from power, because we still have work on Monday.

TV pitch: NYC Mayor and Pope share an apartment.

Heck yes. Gotta assume this means a year of good @darthbluesky.bsky.social skeets (when not hibernating).

This is a fantasy. And a sad one. Conservatives have always been primarily racist and covered that in economics. Racist. Classist. And often fascist. This is the culmination of decades of effort to remove shame from their backwards views. And this is exactly how pathetic that ends.

Kirara from Genshin Impact plush!

Could we mobilize more action if we referred to Silicon Valley CEOs and their peers as TechLords? Would people be more willing to rise up against them? What's the branding we're missing to make them so unappealing and loathsome as to provoke (not) violence?

Now that we're fully in the holidays, I want you to embrace the belief that every time you're not seeing his stupid face or hearing his voice live, it's because it has happened. The pang of disappointment when he pops out again is nothing compared to the true, full positivity that you can embrace.

If ever something was deserving of a "satanic panic" it is GenAI. And yet only the reasonable and rational show appropriate concern.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has stated that the 1918 flu pandemic was caused by a lab virus from vaccine research, a defective influenza vaccine. Let’s analyze what a lie this is. First, in 1918, 107 years ago, virology was in its infancy

It's like Grinkmas in December tonight.

Mr. Cuban, I'm a professor at Yale School of Public Health. Here's a paper published by one of my colleagues in the top medical journal evaluating the Medicare for All Act, which would not only get us there, but would save $450B per year. Happy to discuss! www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...
