Strange times when you find yourself figuratively applauding Marjorie Taylor Greene for picking a fight with Trump. The woman practically embodies the MAGA mindset in motion. Are we watching the implosion of the MAGA regime, or just another episode of reality TV politics?

English is keeping it simple, in Icelandic it’s a linguistic endurance sport.

One of the side effects of Prince Andrew losing his royal status is that he no longer gets an Icelandic name. In Icelandic tradition, we translate the names of hereditary heads of state and popes. But since Andrew is no longer royalty, he’s no longer Andrés - now he's just Andrew.

President Orange Julius Caesar and his ilk claim that guns are a God given right but don’t feel that food is a God given right. They claim to care about babies but don’t care if they go hungry when they become children.

We're probably on track for more than 3°C of heating, and with the orange clown back in the White House, it's only going to be speeding up. "Humanity has failed to limit global heating to 1.5C and must change course immediately, the secretary general of the UN has warned."

Is there no bottom to this man’s pettiness, or does it just tunnel straight to the earth’s core? Read the Major Events timeline, for the years 1998, 2013, 2023, 2024. It’s less a biography and more a spite-fueled art installation. Is this hilarious or something else entirely?

Basic biology.

Reagan believed free trade was vital for growth, warning that tariffs and protectionism hurt everyone, including the U.S. He talked tough against unfair foreign practices, but only used tariffs as a “necessary evil” when diplomacy failed. Bottom line: Reagan preferred open markets, not trade wars.

Been warning about that. Can’t wait for the headlines explaining how ‘technically’ this still counts as democracy - even as it’s blatantly rigged.

What strikes me as odd is that companies and individuals are donating to build the ballroom. To me, that reeks of corruption.

"Viewpoint diversity" about whether human activity is warming the planet, or whether vaccines work, is like "viewpoint diversity" about whether the sky is blue or whether the Earth is round. It falls outside the range of good faith scientific and academic discourse. #ScienceUnderSiege

Could anyone explain why the September temperature record has not yet been updated in the NASA GISS database?

Israel’s “ceasefire” strategy: bomb first, announce peace later, repeat until everyone’s thoroughly confused and Gaza’s hospitals overflow. Humanitarian aid? Maybe next time - right after the next airstrike, of course! What a masterclass in conflict resolution. #Gaza #Ceasefire

The #comic Hugleikur Dagsson just got kicked off Meta. Let’s make him feel at home here on Bluesky. His work is dark, sarcastic, and absolutely hilarious in my view. Welcome to Bluesky @dagsson.bsky.social

#NoKings protests sweep the US, hundreds of thousands flood cities, demanding democracy, not monarchy. Times Square, D.C., LA, Miami: all peaceful despite National Guard on standby. Trump dodges the “king” label, but critics see creeping authoritarianism and recall fights against fascism.

Charming crowd, in the most ironic sense "They referred to Black people as monkeys and “the watermelon people” and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers." #politico

“Unless we find a way to overcome antiscience, humankind will face its gravest threat yet—the collapse of civilization as we know it.” @michaelemann.bsky.social @peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social

And that “speed bump” is our…president.

For my piece today at @zeteo.com i wanted to truly underscore how punishingly stupid american fascism is now. Like, my original proposed headline for this was: Our Democracy Is Imperiled Because One Old Man Won’t Stop ‘Yelling’ At His TV. zeteo.com/p/trump-addi...

I get the sense that overall activity on Bluesky has dipped somewhat since a few months ago. Have others seen the same trend, and what might help revive the momentum?

Trump’s tariffs are hitting autoworkers and the clean energy transition hard: Layoffs, mandatory OT, and EV delays. www.wsws.org/en/articles/...

The platform formerly known as Twitter may be horrible, but it is still shaping policy. So were we all wrong to leave?

#Starlink satellites are burning up daily, dumping metals like aluminum into our upper atmosphere. Scientists warn this could harm the ozone layer and speed up climate impacts. With launches surging, researchers want urgent review and stricter rules. #SpaceDebris #Disposable #Musk #SpaceX

I could be wrong, but it seems he’s searching for his so‑called Antichrist in all the wrong places. "Peter Thiel, the billionaire political svengali and tech investor, is worried about the antichrist. It could be the US. It could be Greta Thunberg."

The US government shutdown in 2025 is unlike previous standoffs. With bitter partisanship and failed votes, 750,000 workers face unpaid leave as Congress remains gridlocked. Both parties, and Trump, seem determined to dig in rather than seek compromise, raising the stakes for everyday Americans.

Humans don’t just have the classic five senses - sight, hearing, taste, smell, and touch. Neuroscientists recognize at least nine distinct senses, and some classifications identify over 20. These include balance, body position, temperature, pain, and even the sense of time. #Sundayscience

Your 'moment of doom' for Oct. 3, 2025 ~ Yes, and? "As the world’s climate gets hotter, warming ocean waters combine with warmer air that can hold much more moisture, to create stronger and more destructive precipitation events." news.mongabay.com/2025/10/clim...

The champion of petty grudges.

A government shutdown isn’t just red tape, it’s a deliberate wrecking ball smashing services millions depend on. No paychecks, no food aid, no functioning passport offices. Meanwhile, the wheels keep turning for the Trump regime’s agenda, this chaos is by design, not accident. #trumpshutdown

When the US government shuts down, it’s not just politics, it’s chaos. Parks close, workers go unpaid, travel plans tank, and food aid dries up for vulnerable families. Everyday life gets wrecked because Washington can’t do its job. But this is of course the Trump regime's will. #Trumpshutdown

GAA! #Comic by Hugleikur Dagsson.

This is how we do it (Yah I know the song is stuck in your head now).

That's funny.

He spewed a lot of nonsense, yet this one is not just dumb, it’s dangerously stupid. "Mr. Trump undermined the scientific consensus on climate change, saying it was “made by stupid people.”"

After the latest Supreme Court rulings, is it still possible to prosecute Trump and his regime for crimes once his presidency ends? Or does presidential immunity now make true accountability impossible? Curious what others think—let’s discuss!

Your 'moment of doom' for Sept. 21, 2025 ~ It's doom alone that counts. "Over the next few years, a few other folks got into the sea ice forecasting game using similarly somewhat unorthodox methodologies. Chief among them was Peter Wadhams ..." www.realclimate.org/index.php/ar...

It's tricky!

The natural evolution of hypocrisy.

Well, this so-called 'champion of free speech' has revealed his brilliant plan: to 'elevate' free speech through censorship. Next, we can probably expect book burnings to be introduced as a 'reading campaign'.

President Trump and his regime is weaponizing the assassination of Charlie Kirk, using it as fuel to escalate their long-standing war on liberal institutions. By targeting them they are working to paint the entire left as disloyal - framing dissent not as political opposition, but as treachery.

“Black women do not have the brain processing power to be taken seriously. You have to go steal a white person’s slot”. -Charlie Kirk

Well, of course he said that. “What’s illegal are the drugs that were on the boat, and the drugs that are being sent into our country, and the fact that 300 million people died last year from drugs, that’s what’s illegal,” Trump said.
