He’s always thinking about new ways to improve the lives of average Americans.

Truly wild that I am in complete alignment with the leader of the Roman Catholic Church on something

YOUR TURKEY NEEDS TO COME OUT OF THE FREEZER TODAY 🦃

Massive shoutout out to whoever handles the Royal Canadian Air Force’s social media account. They responded to every single comment on their already very solid Trans Day of Remembrance post and they responded like this…

@mattcameron.bsky.social Re: OA1209 The reason it’s a three-judge panel is that it’s a three-judge district court under 28 USC 2284(a) challenging the constitutionality of the apportionment of congressional districts.

I’m still thinking about “quiet, piggy.” No president should be able to speak to a member of the press that way and remain president. That moment encapsulates how vile, misogynistic, and horrible that man is.

“since 2005”

If every author in the class action filed a claim it would financially ruin the entire industry! 😊

holy father, i'm offering you a chance to skip this boring lunch. get day drunk with jane and i while we watch clips of the '05 world series on youtube

everyone gets so mad at the mods here for doing basic mod shit. sometimes you gotta make a little murder joke and eat a three day ban for it. that’s life baby, there’s beauty in that.

trumps administration is the largest looting of the working class funneled up to the wealthy in history

Probably an unpopular opinion but “don’t type death threats even jokingly, yes that means you” seems to be one of the few real Bluesky rules and not something I personally struggle with.

There are over 35,000 NYPD officers. This is called a Friday.

Let Trump do a Chotiner interview you cowards

To be crystal clear: Signal will NEVER message you this way. Ever. And just like with your bank details or passwords, NEVER EVER share your Signal verification code (SMS/Call) or PIN with anyone. Ever. 3/

Right now we're hearing about increased phishing attempts that go like this: Attackers pretend to be Signal or Signal Support, then message people and try to get them to hand over their verification code or Signal PIN. Information that can let the attacker take over the victim's Signal account. 2/

PSA: tips to protect yourself from scams on Signal. Every major comms platform has to contend w phishing, impersonation, & scams. Sadly. Signal is major, and as we've grown we've heard about more of these attacks--scammy people pretending to be something or someone to trick and abuse others. 1/

Even apart from the huge attention-getting issues, every freaking day is like "the administration just discovered another government office designed to actually help people and save lives, so obviously they're defunding it": wapo.st/4qKvavQ

Drew Pomeranz doppelgänger

"JPMorgan on Monday said building AI infrastructure will cost more than $5tn" Crazy idea: Why not, rather than spending $5 TRILLION dollars to pay for data centers to create fake brains, just pay actual human beings with real brains that same $5 trillion?

the number of "true-blue" "criticizing a Democrat is doing Trump's work" lifetime DNC and DEC members who are blasting Senate Democrats on social media this morning is astonishing. they truly broke people

Chuck Schumer Helps Pull Democrats Back From Brink Of Courage

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it. Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

in any case it is wild that voters just sent a huge message and a bunch of senate democrats are all, “it doesn’t look like anything to me”

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.

“Guaranteeing a vote” that you will lose is yet again reliance on the “You’re gonna look so bad dude” shit that has worked exactly zero times. Sorry for the posts about the same thing I feel like I am going insane

Everyone wants to talk about wire fraud but you never hear anyone praise wire honesty.

Reductions in Force not required by shutdowns, have never happened in any previous shutdown, and a judge has ruled they are illegal. The shutdown is an excuse, not a reason, for them to do what they wanted to do: destroy government.

FOX: So you would ask Speaker Johnson to recall the House? GOP REP. KEVIN KILEY: Not only would I, I've asked him to do it repeatedly. There's no justification. And honestly, it's Republican voters who should be most upset about this when they delivered a GOP majority and now that's being wasted

Trump want to make a one time payment of 400 bucks, then cancel your insurance. You can use that money to make a downpayment on your coffin.

I didn’t watch much baseball this year, and what was once my offseason dalliance is my new obsession.

Axios tried to bust James Talarico for following adult content creators on Instagram and I'm genuinely impressed by his campaign's response

Oh that’s an advance fee fraud

This is actually a pretty standard and unremarkable move, as evidenced by Justice Jackson issuing it. But most people won't believe that for several good reasons. /1

Been considering writing something on this for a while now, but the core of liberalism really is “mind your own business.” No one has to agree on what a woman or man is anymore than they have to agree what God is. What you have to agree on is to not accost people in the street over it.

Literally the one place in the country where Democrats got their clock cleaned was in the home county of state chair who refused to endorse Mamdani and has generally overseen a string very poor democratic performances.

The note is pretty good evidence that the sandwich guy jurors carefully evaluated the legal merits of the DOJ’s case and weren’t collectively engaged in a nullification exercise.

people hate hearing this but it's 100% true, creating a huge pay gap between political leaders, their staffs, and other elites is a recipe for corruption. of course the flip side of that is taxes on the rich should be jacked way the hell up

Explaining bsky advanced moderation settings to an American: “First, go to the hamburger.” (I know it’s called a hamburger menu/button)

this is useful info but it is emphatically NOT why no one likes my posts any more. that is cope

"World's first potential trillionaire has killed 600,000 people, including 400,000 children" is the only headline that anyone should ever read about Elon Musk

To my trans and nonbinary friends, I am so sorry that you have to deal with this hate. And I hope to see us reach the other side of it soon. And, we will reach the other side. This is horrifying, but it is ultimately the latest iteration of a time-worn tale. And their time always comes to an end.

Honestly one of the worst, most disturbing paragraphs — on the basis of process, substance, and effect — I’ve read in a Supreme Court order or opinion in a very long time.

I don't think it's even right to say the voting public doesn't care. I think the truth is a lot of voters may generally find trans identity moderately confusing but also *none of their business*. on the other hand, they find an obsession with harming trans people - say it with me - deeply weird.

Trump: "So Walmart -- to me, that's triple A -- but they just came out with a very powerful statement that under the Biden administration, a Thanksgiving meal with all the trimmings cost 25% more." (The meal is cheaper now because the turkey is smaller.)

one thing that's nice about canceling your New York Times sub is every week you get at least one or two stories shared on here that make you say, "yeah, it rocks that I did that, I only wish I could do it again." highly recommend you cancel yours if you haven't already

Ooh this “since” zoomed past 2008

As the face of the “progressive prosecutor” movement steamrolls to a 3rd term, let me be the millionth person to note that when that movement loses elections it’s billed in national media as a crisis for the left, while the movement’s high points, of which there have been many, are largely ignored.
