I’m actually terrified to do this, but here goes. One request. You do not comment until you read the entire thread. And you are respectful when you do. If not I will either restrict you or block you depending on how hateful you are. Great, glad we’re on the same page, let’s begin. 1/

Frank Sinatra almost got into a fist fight with Bing Crosby on the set of High Society to defend the dignity of Louis Armstrong, who was added to the production due to Sinatra’s advocacy. It’s not hard to find PSAs for tolerance that Sinatra filmed!

Yo gamers why are you not talking about this more?????

It turned out people wanted to talk to you about feelings when you got them a thoughtful gift (this is my surprised face). You can get @marthawells.com to sign any of her books by ordering at hyperbolebookstore.com -- a good gift for anyone with an interesting brain, like @murderbotbot.bsky.social

As long as Spotify is willing to take money from ICE, they don’t need (or deserve) free advertising for Spotify Wrapped: indivisible.org/cancel-spotify?source=bluesky

I think about this (joke) article a lot www.cracked.com/blog/what-i-...

This would be, without any doubt, a war crime committed by the United States. We prosecuted Germans and Japanese for doing this exact thing in WWII.

Here’s my Spotify Wrapped 🎵✨

My stepson is being isolated and gaslit by his girlfriend, even to the point I think she uses his phone to reply on his behalf and be weirdly deceptive. Like she made up a whole ass conversation that I would have ^never^ had with her.

KPOP STANS / BTS ARMY ASSEMBLE How long can it take to DICTATE the Bee Movie script into a phone

There is a free tool to migrate from Spotify to Apple Music and you won’t regret it

Like, people want Star Trek society, but they never seem to remember that there were massive wars that killed millions and then humanity rose from the ashes.

I shopped at target once since January and later that day I was also in a fender bender. My conclusion is whatever universal forces there are do not want us shopping at Target.

It’s official, folks! I just filed to run for Governor of Texas. We’re ready to take Texas back for those who have been ignored, squeezed, and written off.

Absolute debasement of academic standards *student submits opinion in psych class *gets bad grade *instructor says she can make whatever arguments she wants but must draw on empirical sources *student & Turning Point says her religious freedom & first amendment rights violated *professor suspended

In case you’re wondering why Pete Hegseth is freaking out about a congressional video reminding the military not to participate in illegal orders:

h/t @adamwren.bsky.social Michael Bohacek, a Republican state senator from Indiana who has a daughter with down syndrome, says he will vote against redistricting in Indiana after Trump used the word "retarded."

The crisis isn’t refugees. It’s not that one person committed one tragic crime and killed one other person. The crisis isn’t that America’s 250-year old history of hosting immigrants turned out to be a mistake. The crisis is that STEPHEN MILLER, a hateful little maggot, controls the government.

Another day, another Republican scandal.

20$ this is our reichstag fire.

I canceled paramount because I was angry at ^gestures broadly^ but now I’m extra annoyed at my lack of Star trek. I guess I’ll have to go back to physical media. If I ever see bari Weiss I’m gonna spill coffee on her.

Oh…

So weird how all these things - superduper pardon power, total immunity, no birthright citizenship - didn’t seem to exist in the Constitution until the One True Leader Trump was elected; suddenly they find all these things that’d never apply to a Democrat President

Every time I go on vacation, no matter what time of the month, no matter how much I spend on an expensive procedure to stop it, I get my fucking period. I even plan trips around different times of the month. I had an ablation a year and a half ago. I had a slight period two weeks ago. Yet today.

If you need me, tap me on the shoulder. I’ll be happily working all day listening to this on a loop.

Former UVA president Jim Ryan, who resigned over the summer due to pressure from the Trump Administration, just shared this 12-page letter with the Faculty Senate, detailing his experience with the Board of Visitors and DOJ. It's a surreal--and troubling--read. drive.google.com/file/d/1Is6x...

The New York Times **HAD EMAILS IN ITS POSSESSION** tying Donald Trump directly to Jeffrey Epstein's global elite pedophile cabal conspiracy –– in the middle of a 2016 election where a global elite pedophile cabal conspiracy was a HUGE topic –– and they didn't publish one word it for a decade.

probably something an innocent man would do

You never have more political capital to burn than on your first day in office, go for it Zohran

Gee thanks for nothing @democrats.senate.gov www.houstonchronicle.com/politics/tex...

Our whole society is becoming one big clown show.

I got facebook pushed two Fox News posts about some fighting in Berkeley with “munitions”. I feel like that would be something on regular news too

After yesterday’s surrender, we’re launching the largest Democratic primary program that we’ve ever run. We will not back any Senate primary candidate unless they call for Schumer to step down as Minority Leader. If you’re as pissed as we are, join this campaign to rebuild the Democratic Party. 👇

Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week Either they go into total rebellion mode, which they won't, or the people will

"When I picked up my granddaughter from the federal agents, she had a dirty diaper, a bruise on her face, and was developing a rash. She was exhausted and cried… My heart aches knowing this could happen to others, to my kids, or even me, despite being U.S. citizens.”

oh so these people do pay attention to who politicians follow on social media, they just don’t care that the vice president follows a bunch of actual neo-nazis

If you suck at communicating then you shouldn’t run for office

A family friend was telling us about what her husband shared about his experience in Broadview before he was deported back to Mexico. She's been sharing to friends and family because she's just in disbelief & horror what her husband told her. She wasn't able to talk to him until he was in Mexico.

I interviewed Will about what's been happening to him on Twitter the past few weeks and his thoughts on the state of social media and the Democrats

Weird! I've been told by serious people that I'm not a serious candidate because I don't have millions of dollars in donations.

I’m watching this Barry Goldwater documentary and it’s fascinating. He’d be considered a radical leftist by some people today. The religious right has really poisoned the discourse. youtu.be/5RvXaAFw3v4?...

Hey this is cool! whyy.org/articles/ele...

My stepson’s girlfriend/fiance is a bundle of red flags and has now isolated him from his immediate family. In her mind everyone either wants to sleep with him or hates her. She got jealous over instagram bots. Like.

There's nothing "moderate" about surrendering in exchange for "strong assurances" from congressional Republicans. That's just stupid political malpractice. Republicans are losing this fight, and Dems should hold the line!

It doesn’t matter what I think. Also, none of this would ever happen. But if I had a zillion dollars: 1. Run a “we do hard things” campaign across southern and rust belt states. Invest heavily in local, state and regional social infrastructure. Sponser later hours at a library, build a skate park…

the whole plan for operation midway in chicago was to frighten and terrorize people, and the administration hasn't considered what can happen when people decide they're more angry than they are afraid
