Everyone, you have to vote in EVERY election. Gerrymandering only works if we stay home. We outnumber them. You have to put in the work as a citizen and vote. There is no other way out of this. I don't understand why this is so hard to understand. WE THE PEOPLE have to save ourselves!

Work Rule but also Bluesky/Social Media Rule Respectfully, what some of y'all are happy to make public on here is kinda concerning And I'm not talking about the nude selfies

This is my kind of joke

Omg I just found out there’s a tea shop down the street from my old house, and they also do vintage ice cream and soda fountain drinks from the 1910s, and they serve a banana split in *uranium glass* and I’m now obsessed. Hippie food, 50s dive bar look, 1 block from the ocean. 🤩

And you maye aske yourselfe "Why ys thys bow made of burninge golde?" And you maye aske yourselfe "Wher are my arrowes of desyre?" And you maye telle yourselfe "These are not my spear and unfoldinge cloudes" And you maye telle yourselfe "Thys ys not my chariot of fyre"

Genuinely. I feel the greatest danger involved in that would be some shithead "moderate" obsessed with pretending nothing strange ever happened gets the job, fixes nothing, and spend 4 years telling people to grown up and calm down and reach across the aisle. No. TRIALS.

☝️🤓 ALTHOUGH ☝️🤓 Variolation was already being used to inoculate against smallpox in China, India, Africa, & the Middle East, possibly as far back at the 11th century. What Jenner did was important for sure, MUCH nicer than eating fresh cowpox scabs/pus. But we all stand on the shoulders of giants.

If this sounds like you, I encourage you to look into my two favorite genres of country music — 1. I will die for my union and the cops who shot us are going to Hell, and 2. I just killed my husband and it’s the best thing I’ve ever done.

Cannot stress enough and cannot shut up about the fact that Comic Strip Popeye/Olive Oyl were and are 10,000 times better than any animated or film version has ever been, and I will die on that hill

Fucking lit.

ANYWAY of you think "real" artists are somehow above using reference, I have terrible news for you about Everything you've ever loved

lol are we seriously having the "No real artist uses reference, that's just tracing with extra steps" argument in 2026 Did Bluesky suddenly flood with middle schoolers or something

And that's why so many of the vids stress how eaaaaasy this side hustle is. Low start-up costs! Make your own hours! Perfect for SAHMs and teens! (Y'know, the people most likely to be watching.) Just buy my handy guide here for $75 $250! $500! And it's like... ah. OK. I see, now.

I want to clear the air over some recent reporting. Like many, in my youth I experimented with being expialidocious. It was a mistake, and I recognize that now. But to say I went so far with it as to be FRAGILISTIC, or even supercalifragilistic, is frankly something quite atrocious.

Taking notes

^_^ I'm still deeply proud of getting to call him "literally the Ur-Example of the shady businessman."

When I hear things that threaten food safety it really bothers me. We are back in The Jungle.

Literally anything by Wes Anderson. The ONLY interesting thing about them is the visuals.

"Ex-Infowars employees speak out on Alex Jones!" No. Shut up. I'm not listening to you. You were happy to enable his evil ass while he kept your bills paid, your condemnation of him now is meaningless. Leave, coward.

Corporations don't "make your childhood." The artists working there do. Be on the right side, gang.

If you care about trans people, you'd stop reading and sharing NYT articles just like you dont consume JK Rowling Pass it on

ANYWAY: claiming humans just have a ~*natural genetic urge*~ to go around murdering one another is bizarre, and ahistorical as shit. We don't crave violence, we crave peace and socialization. We don't go insane without opportunities to murder. We go insane without opportunities to connect.

Someone on my RPG server just said the truest thing I've heard in a while: "Gen AI’s best feature is that it immediately identifies what a user values spending their own time and effort on Unfortunately this is depressing news for the rest of us"

The Poisonwood Bible. I hated everyone in that book.

Well, y'know, if it's my fault, or that immigrant's fault, it's not THEIR fault. And victimhood always feels better than "Maybe the problem is me." See also: incels

... ma'am, what you miss is *community.*

My childhood sitting in the "non-smoking" area of a restaurant which was not removed from the smoking area in any way... 😩

Shout-out to the real ones. These people will boil lakes dry and burn forests to the ground to make a bad copy of what you doodled while on hold on the phone with the bank.

PERFECT! Thank you!

This blew the hair back from my face

This is Geoff. He's lucky to be in a household that values sleepiness over cleanliness. 13/10 #SeniorPupSaturday (TT: sarahmeyers14)

Canada is one party consent as an FYI for my fellow Canadians who may not know

Anyone who does this to Mr. Rogers is going to the special hell.

I am *so* gay.

I adore this guy - Farming While Beige/@blackbirdcoop - it's like having a hyperintelligent Black Kronk with a truly amazing mustache explain the shit you didn't know about farming to you.

LOL this is more than the margin Turmp won by, and back then the press treated like the American people co-signing a 1,000 year, woke-is-dead Reich Shades of Facebook loons referring to Obama's second term win as "a squeaker"

Yeah, more along these lines

Washington's ghost is staring into the distance and thinking about influenza and smallpox at Valley Forge.

ANYWAY, falling marriage rates are always cast as some sort of issue? Don't agree with that. Marriage is no longer *compulsory,* is all that tells me, and that's good. It shouldn't be. Maybe it's because I'm Gen X, but I CLEARLY remember old, married couples who despised each other for decades.

You're failing the sexual selection gauntlet as nature intended and I think that's beautiful ~ ♥

Dudes who actually buy into manosphere bullshit love to go on about biological/gender essentialism and The Natural Order, but when you tell 'em "So where's the problem, most males in the animal kingdom never get a chance to procreate, I guess your genes must be inferior" suddenly there's an issue :V

ADHD brain doing the thing where it fixates on one particular song til I've analyzed the lyrics to death/wrung every possible molecule of dopamine out of the song. Anyway, "Shake the Disease" is an underrated Depeche Mode song (and it really speaks to my difficulty in asking for what I want/need).

I was cute today

Fuck yeah
