Here’s my piece on the “now-completed demolition” of the Voting Rights Act in @thenation.com The VRA is the most important piece of legislation in American history. It more than anything is what ended American-style apartheid. And now Republicans have killed it.

Beautiful. I was walking down North Shore Park by Tampa Bay in St. Pete this week and snapped this pic of the stately white pelicans who hang with us in the winter.

Update on my friend's pup. Luca is still missing in Virginia. 😢 She's looking for a tracker and people with drones who would be able to help her. I love this pup. He is Augie's friend and so sweet. Please share this flyer and hope that the right person sees it. #SchnauzerGang #DogsofBlueSky

We live in the stupidist timeline. The Pope said that war is bad so Trump posted a rant saying the Pope is weak on crime & then posted a picture of himself as Jesus. Then this morning the Pope said he wasn't intimidated & the Iranian President (who we are at war with) tweeted support of the Pope.

One of the funniest Cartoons I've seen in a while. Lol 🤣 Enjoy

Column: Run, Ron, run! President Convicted Felon's declining poll numbers show it's time for Gov. DeSastrous to run for president again. Be America's meatball! floridaphoenix.com/2026/04/06/b... via @dkroberts.bsky.social

I am listening to Ron Desantis talk about elections as he is about to sign a new voter suppression law. He is every bit as unhinged as Trump. Amazingly unhinged. As soon as he stops rambling and signs this bill, Florida will be sued. Stand by....

“‘They were careless people, Tom and Daisy—they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness…’ One can’t help but wonder who’s going to be left to clean up the mess made by Trump and his enablers.” www.thebulwark.com/p/the-iran-h...

I’m part of the St. Pete #NoKings protest picture seen here in the Tampa Bay Times. Well, my legs are seen here anyway.

Fundamentalists are dangerous. And as always: Susan B. Anthony's well-known quote regarding God is: "I distrust those people who know so well what God wants them to do, because I notice it always coincides with their own desires"

this is superb. and even more rarely for the NYT, not edited into mush www.nytimes.com/2026/03/29/o...

Thank you for making No Kings 3 the biggest day of mass protest that America has ever seen. #NoKings

No member of Congress should allow the Trump administration and this lawless paramilitary squad to continue stomping on our rights and terrorizing our communities. They have endangered everyone in America. Call your Senators to DEFUND ICE. Info, numbers, and scripts @ 5calls.org

St. Petersburg, Florida No Kings

Infuriating. The FDOT provides no proof that street art is a distraction to drivers. Taxpayer dollars were not used to create the art. This is yet another attempt to wipe out any signs of diversity, inclusion, and history of anyone who isn’t a straight, white male. stpetecatalyst.com/state-bans-p...

This is a vital message: one of the larger reasons BlueSky is refreshingly free of alt-right shitlords is because in the early days we made a gentleperson’s agreement to starve these fuckos out and it worked. No likes, no quotes, no engagement. They got bored and left. Please keep the Old Ways.
