YOU ARE A TRUE WARRIOR. I AM PROUD OF YOU.

Congress shouldn't immobilize itself to protect pedophiles

Bloomberg left out the fact that Alcatraz is Indigenous land.

This is a profound insight. Few linguistic and discursive concepts are so profoundly infused with racism and classism as honesty, sincerity, authenticity, and transparency. The lower on the hierarchical ladder, the more likely you are judged to be preternaturally dishonest.

no kings so long, gay bowser

Or as my friend @mrs-frazzled.bsky.social put it: 6/x

Have you heard of tactical frivolity? It’s one of my favorite forms of protest. Tactical frivolity is what happens when you use humor, costumes, and joy to make power look ridiculous. 🪩🐔🐸 🧵 1/x

The Bluesky government accounts want unhinged engagement with their accounts to screenshot and provide to Fox News to justify their authoritarianism and I’m not going to do their work for them it’s my day off.

Listen up hooms, This #Caturday is important. Get out there, inflate your costumes, mock the clowns in power, and take care of each other. Protect your colony! Tell them #NoKings, MELT THE FROZEN COPS, and come home with new friends. -Wumpus #CatsOfBluesky #CatLife #Cats #AbolishICE

I would add to this, if this is you, for the love of God *please test*. You can get boxes of five tests from Amazon. Long Covid can happen after your first, third, or however-manyeth infection even if you seemed to recover fine before, and knowing you had it is so important!

I wanna a follow up to dungeons and dragons honor among thieves so damn badly

Not being even vaguely sarcastic: At some point, a journalist needs to ask Johnson “you regularly claim you have no idea what your own government is doing. If we take you at your word, how are you so poorly informed, and do you this level of ignorance should disqualify you as speaker?”

“rich people hate me” is maybe the strongest endorsement

i appreciate the need to keep each other safe and i think that advice is necessary and good but sometimes this stuff can veer sharply into “i just want you to know i know something”

not sure how niche this is, but airlines keeping their plane's seating jammed together like sardines and making passengers rely on carry-on baggage thanks to checked bag fees has resulted in a severe drop in social trust

Graphic novels are reading. Audiobooks are reading. Being read to is reading.

Courts should side with renters who show up for eviction court in all nonviolent instances. They are the only one there NOT getting paid.

I'm not sure it's extremely niche at all, but I've only heard it from me: When we eventually manage to fix public education, we need to make it mandatory to have critical thinking and philosophy classes in elementary, middle school, high school and college. No exceptions or exemptions.

Public services should be available to everyone, without any Means Testing, and this even means the rich. You want rich people to be using these services too, because then they have a reason to push for those services to be good and well-funded.

Pushing languages like french or german or [european language] on school kids and offering no other options with more utility is stupid Also, everyone should learn even a basic foundational level of Signing

Public storm shelters east of the Rockies should be a part of any infrastructure planning. If you own a mobile home park, you should be obligated to install a large public shelter.

Either no food is ok for the office, or literally every food is ok for the office; anything in between is cultural bigotry.

Public education should have nothing to do with grades or diplomas at any level. If employers want to test your aptitude, make them administer those tests, as many, in fact, do. Requiring diplomas serves only to enforce a plausibly deniable class barrier.

zohran mamdani, why would you not attend this parade ?

We highly endorse buying your own copy and a share copy.

Our federal tax dollars are being used to fund a network of government social media accounts that pump out disinformation 24/7. Even during a government shutdown. It’s definitely not essential work.

We live in the dumbest fucking timeline.

Mr. Mamdani when will you wear wigs

All the folks who say “beans keep, why don’t the soybean farmers just hold onto them until this tariff crisis is over” probably should watch this video

This is not a minor issue: it’s a serious threat to democracy. We’re rapidly transitioning into a world where, as long as you support the president, you can be above the law; if you’re in the opposition, you have a target on your back. Opposition can’t survive under these conditions.

Someone who saw the evidence in that case and wanted to have dinner with Epstein is not anyone who should be allowed near children.

On police procedurals the internal affairs detective is always some vendetta-driven asshole trying to take down a good cop and in real life the internal affairs detective is like "in conclusion, the baby was probably reaching for the officer's sidearm."

BATTLE AWAITS. HAVE SOMETHING TO EAT.

*into* Camp Pendleton?

This is good: Rep Eric Swalwell tells me House Dems are now discussing making an end to mask-wearing a precondition for ICE funding. "When we are in the majority, the masks are coming off," he says. This is the next frontier in anti-Trump resistance. New piece: newrepublic.com/article/2018...

This is almost literally what the English Civil War was fought over.

I write this for a few reasons. 1) Accountability on something specific. 2) To model to swaths of Jewish leadership that *it's possible* to take accountability for genocide complicity. 3) To talk about repentance & repair work post-genocide. It all still matters. It doesn't stop mattering now.
