My 2 year old nephew just walks around around and says "Happy day! Happy day!" completely unprompted and it is the best thing

On the one hand, this is an incredible summary not just of the NYT, but every centrist journalist. On the other, it's hugely unfair to actual theatre critics, who one can rely upon to recognise subtext and motivation, and remember what happened in the previous scene.

rip Karl Marx, you would've loved Hobbits

Just enjoyed a push-poll survey monkey that was either: -against Graham Platner or - a cleverer one for him, intended to remind me how gross the Republican political operation is Hard to say!

If I hear you accuse Stancil of anything worse than being an annoying little guy, I immediately question your ability to parse fact from bullshit. There’s nothing there, and this is so, so stupid.

I still love the theory a Year 6 child proposed to me that David Attenborough is actually God and he got fed up with people not noticing the amazing things he'd created, so he made documentaries to show off.

great at male friendship, pranks involving physical pain, being a smart-ass, terrible at everything else. insufferable and charming in the same gesture. world-historically bad at driving

progressive politicians should sell policy ideas to the public as either being for the public good or as another gift to elon musk. his name works perfectly as a shorthand for "way too rich asshole that everyone hates"

Vairë’s task is ever so clearly beautiful yet subtly critical + the fact that Míriel joins her to tell the story of her husband and children… which is, you know, quite rich. So I wanted this piece to be the richest. If you can figure, there are 2 events on tapestries, one about Míriel’s firstborn +

JRRT's legendarium sorta is about hope overcoming despair. But despair isn't brushed aside, it's sat with, taken seriously, recognized as a legitimate response to a world so full of shit. It's part of the experience, not merely a bridge to better things.

new bucket list unlocked for my adhd craft friends:

Today we will be mainly posting pictures of artefacts that look like sweets. 🍬🍫

I’m so many years too late to be yelling about events halfway through its run, but nevertheless: ROSS POLDARK AIN’T SHIT

Cite the deep magic to me, witch. I was there when it was written and I think it’s important to credit our sources.

Happy Appomattox Day to all that celebrate

PSA: Trader Joe’s has Takis but without the food dye — in case I wasn’t the last to know!

Very few people just come out and say to me they are too scared or don't wanna organize but instead will give me a lecture or some condescending comment about how I have too much faith in institutions. It would just save everybody's time to just tell me point blank you don't wanna organize, lol.

can this be a solution?

The FAST AND FURIOUS franchise but there's me driving a Richard Scarry apple car.

Trying to do Everything: a bold strategy, Cotton, let’s see how it works out for me

At the International Women's Day demonstration in Paris today: "Hope is a discipline", @prisonculture.bsky.social

A mass delusion of normalcy

I’ve had a lot of folks interested in helping me collect the rest of my signatures—thank you so much. If you’re one of those people, please go to the volunteer link on my website andreaformaine.com and fill out your information there so I can get back to you. ✌🏼🌲

Still unclear where Trump would change strategy if he were a foreign asset tasked with completely disabling the US domestically and internationally.

brick layer and dairy farmer, and genuinely surprised so many of you come from fancy!

Large media has failed to give people context showing how fast and how extreme the norms erosion has been

Maine, folks are misconstruing criticism of Platner. Of course some comesfrom conservatives and centrist-democrats, but their smaller populations here may be masking how marginalized groups view his candidacy, and how supporting him at this still-early stage signals disregard for their safety.

Inside of you there are two wolves and they kiss each other. Like, frenching. With tongue, I mean.

Leaving your art at a gallery is akin to dropping your kid at the first daycare. Like hey this contains so much of my heart, please be nice.

Searching for the One (pepper) Ring to rule them all

I can respect this opinion because most humans on earth haven’t had the opportunity to experience fresh Maine blueberries.

Honestly, I’d rather people who are overwhelmed did nothing rather than doing actively counterproductive stuff like yelling at the people who ARE doing something that it’s hopeless, it’ll never be enough, why bother.

Snow Smaug :)

Guy who wants to draw the line in a horrible place: All I'm saying is where do we draw the line

They said it. We’re all thinking it.

“I love that our relationship strives for 50/50 equality, not like a check split down the middle, but like one of those little birds who hangs out on top of a rhinoceros.” - Gondelman just being the Husband of All time

Haven’t Tolkien-posted much lately, but my beloved @teawithtolkien.com has a book coming out on the 20th! It’s an earnest exploration of how to bring loving hobbit values into our daily lives, and we NEED more of that

Another resistance quilt finished this week. The eye is my own design, the letters are a fpp pattern by QuiltByNight, the rounded corners and black binding are meant to resemble the phones we the people are using to document the horrors and disprove the government’s lies about what they are doing.

i know everybody on bluesky is way too smart to believe thing is, if you don't believe, tinkerbell dies it's on all of us

“Non-white Americans are also Americans” has become a political message, so

“Powerful and wealthy people were telling me I was smart and important, and that affected my views in ways I hadn’t realized. I was part of something harmful and now I am taking a hard look at my past behavior.” It could be that fucking easy. You could stop doubling the fuck down.

“Powerful men have always been able to abuse pubescent girls, get over it” is just not the conversation-gender you seem to think it is

The entire anti wokeness nonsense of the past decade was about making this kind of gutter racism broadly acceptable again bsky.app/profile/adam...

This feels like a trap to get white people to make criticisms that are not ours to make

Elite journalism: … shit

Yes we are. We’re going to stop them
