This is something I quite enjoyed. I particularly appreciate her calling out the need for institutions and how unbelievably stupid the Republicans have been. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjtl...

This kind of rhetoric is encouraging to see.

How bad is the Colorado governor's commutation of Tina Peters' sentence? So bad that even the Republican DA who prosecuted here pushed back, and told Polis to talk to the county officials who have to deal with threats that followed Peters' felonies. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/17/u...

This is very good. This is how we win.

Really don’t know why people are acting surprised here, the writing’s been on the wall for some time now that the choices are either this weird liberal-conservative/progressive big tent or the National Socialist American Workers’ Party and there is no more middle ground to ride between the two

Chat, is it bad that the first thing that comes up in, 'People also ask' when I just type in Anthopic is, "Is Anthropic owned by Jews." IDK, that seems not good.

Another one for the collection

I don't bring it up often, but this is one of the things that made me apocalyptically angry about Obama's response to the 2014 invasion. And Biden's in 2022. (Also the European response to both.) No rational actor with would give up nuclear weapons after what happened to Ukraine.

Deliberate destruction of American power and prosperity by the Trump regime

If you accurately tell people who are checked out of politics what is happening, they will not believe you.

I am increasingly convinced that society is divided between virtuous pluralist technocrats and superstitious tribal barbarians.

Setting aside the moral atrocity being committed here: they're burning all of this political capital for one (1) additional Republican seat

it's shit like this that makes me want to become the party of personal responsibility

a theory like gravity is a theory

When we say they are bad people. It's because they are bad people.

The American consumer needs to suffer as much as possible, especially in non-essential but everyday nice-to-haves.

I love my home.

What my home sounds like. This is the edge of the Lower Klamath National Wildlife Refuge.

One of the things I like seeing is how animals adapt to things human build. There's always a flock birds around here because of this little bridge over the irrigation canal. It's a little cave/cliff for them to nest in right next to fields/ditches with lots of bugs!

I didn't know that honeybees like grape hyacinth

the most woke people on earth have the most trad family structures. this is the reality of american life, very few understand this

>honeypot informants >machine learning doohickeys to identify and track the vehicles of enemy agents tfw

i want the human cost of the second trump administration rubbed in the nation's faces, over and over and over again, until there are no stories left to tell and no crimes left to litigate. if the incoming democratic administration does not accomplish this, they will be failures. complete failures.

This is my politics.

I wanna go be in Budapest. I need an emergency injection of this into my veins

Gonna be honest, I am beginning to think "Trump is the antichrist" is leaving the realm of a joke.

We do think that, because it’s true. How leftists think fascism works is you let it win to own the libs. I prefer our way.

The poem at the end....

Hell yes! We can do this!

holy shit he actually conceded folks, they tell you they’re invincible they tell you they’re inevitable they tell you that you should give up and stop fighting and absolutely none of that is true

Bees in the trees!

For the beauty of the earth.

there is no amount of howling rage at patriarchy and the overwhelming normalisation of child abuse in our culture that is actually appropriate to the concern of the task, and absolutely nobody cares, and i have to compartmentalise it day-to-day myself or else i'll just go insane

the degree of vertiginous disgust this evoked in me to read the PROBLEM is 15 year olds aren't getting pregnant. that's the problem, according to conservatives. that's what they think the problem is! they just said it! with their whole chest!

Marvel Tokon made me wanna draw SMUG Magik~

"What a week. What a month. What a year. I think I speak for a lot of IR and political violence scholars when I say that I’ve found myself quietly, and sometimes not so quietly muttering, “I can’t believe this is really happening.”" Yes, exactly. Well put @zeitzoff.bsky.social.

This is my favorite climate change chart. Japanese monks, aristocrats, and emperors kept meticulous records of cherry blossom festivals for 1,200 years and accidentally built the world's longest climate dataset.

We live in a society.

this is insane

Imagine telling someone in 2005 that Republicans would elect someone who praised allah on Easter morning and no one really cares

Thought it'd be nice to share kind of the scale of my flower project I've been working on for the past few years.

Some of the various flowers out this eastern morning.

"Death is conquered; man is free." "Christ has won the victory."
