What in the fuck has happened to Tucker Carlson and what in the hell did they do with the body. I virtually never listen to this asshat and the first time I do he’s making sense. Apparently I have entered the… Twilight Zone 😬

There can be no more important thread for you to read today. Ignore it at our peril.

Good morning and welcome to Easter Sunday 2026... [photo via the @sun-sentinel.com from a few years ago]

Franklin Graham is a opportunistic tool not on speaking terms with the Prince of Peace. He's a greedy man who siphons off $720,000/year off just one of his "charities." To Franklin, "faith" is just a business. A nepo baby like Donald Trump, we wouldn't even know his name if he hadn't had a rich dad.

Brown University is home to George Orwell's original manuscript of 1984. Most of it is marked up heavily in Orwell's hand-writing but this untouched page caught my eye.

I think it would be good for democracy if more white Americans understood that a huge percentage of the white majority will choose destruction over liberty and justice for all. The GOP’s power is rooted in that sadomasochist dynamic, which is to say the GOP would never succeed without it.

Another day, another outrageous injustice.

Highly recommend @elienyc.bsky.social live-bleeting of this morning’s SCOTUS argument.

If you don’t already know about the extent of human biological gender diversity, you should absolutely read this:

Let's focus on something we ALL agree on: #ReleaseTheEPSTEIN_Files

Graphic from Rep. @friedman.house.gov On International Transgender Day of Visibility, a reminder that those living their true selves are not doing so with any ease and like all of us just want to live with as much joy and freedom as they can.

"If you go home with somebody, and they don't have books, don't fuck 'em". I've adored John Waters since my early teens. #NoKings

. Ohhh, if only she had hauled off and smacked him. This said by me and I am Not a violent woman. .

Everyone on BlueSky should read this short piece by @dreamweasel.bsky.social and take it to heart, along with part 1, which is linked. open.substack.com/pub/dreamwea...

No. Also fuck you.

To whoever did this at the #NoKings in Boston: Thank you.❤️ It made me tear up. And we must to be reminded of needless damage to humanity that results directly from the careless, bellicose bluster coming from the Pentagon and White House.

This is what we Americans and the rest of humanity now face. open.substack.com/pub/jimstewa...

Orlando! #NoKings #Indivisible

There are a whole bunch of reasons to turn out for #nokings tomorrow but here are maybe the top two: 1) huge turnout is a signal to republicans edging away from Trump and puts steel in Dem spines. 2) least we can do to honor bravery of Minnesotans who turned the tide

The number one rule for No Kings 3 tomorrow is DO NOT INTERACT WITH COUNTER PROTESTERS! Do not talk, do not argue, do not react to their words, their single-finger salute, or their rolling coal. DO NOT ENGAGE!!!! You safety team is ready to deal with any negative people.

Women and people of color can risk their lives in Trump's reckless wars of choice but can't get well deserved promotions. No, those only go to white men in Hegeth's DoD. This story about Hegeth's on-going purge is revolting. GIFT LINK: www.nytimes.com/2026/03/27/u...

Good Morning NO KINGS 4 DAYS AWAY ARE YOU READY? BRING A FRIEND BRING TWO FRIENDS BRING YOUR FAMILY "What YOU do makes a difference, and YOU have to decide what kind of difference YOU want to make " ( Jane Goodall) "ALONE WE CAN DO SO LITTLE, TOGETHER WE CAN DO SO MUCH" ( Helen Keller)

"Over the last few years, American tech oligarchs have become the greatest argument against their own existence. The sheer scale of their erratic behavior and political interference proves that extreme wealth concentration is a structural threat to society." -Joni Askola

Yes — “The older I get, the more I realize, I don’t want a busy life. I want a deep life. Slow mornings. Focused work. Calm people. Meaningful progress. Good books. A quiet mind at night. Nothing flashy. Nothing trendy. Just a life that feels good to live. Depth over noise. That'll do.“ Karun Pal

Everything could be really nice here on Earth if it wasn’t for stupid greedy racist sadistic money-hoarding power-drunk warmongering megalomaniacal fascist fuckstains.

The always on point @nick-carmody.bsky.social:

OMG, OMG, OMFG:

Robot Malfunction: In China, a dancing robot suddenly started smashing dishes. It knocked over plates on customers’ tables & then kept dancing without stopping. Staff tried to stop it, but it didn’t respond for several minutes. In the end, one of the waitresses simply dragged it into the back room.

FLASHBACK: “I don’t want everybody to vote— our leverage in elections goes up as the voting populace goes down.” Heritage Foundation & ALEC co-founder Paul Weyrich told us what the “SAVE” Act is really about — saving Trump and Republicans from voters

marco rubio spending his *entire life* hating the castros only to end up involved in secret discussions to make them the hereditary shadow leadership of cuba is somehow a perfect marco rubio story

Hey Speaker Johnson: Muslim Americans are not a “serious issue.” This hateful trash coming from the GOP has no place in America or modern society.

I read this back then, and it’s very well worth your time:

*taps mic* *clears throat* -- Ahem. *points to post beneath this* @gregolear.bsky.social

The metaphor gods have outdone themselves.

THIS:

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled. A truly extraordinary moment. We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. Act like it.

Don’t *ever* say or think that your vote doesn’t matter!

nothing makes me happier to be an Old than hearing chodes like altman discuss their visions of the future

Another super compelling Long Read well worth the effort. (And I mean LONG. I ended up listening to most of it because I had things to do but I couldn't put it down!)

Ubiquitously advertised betting available through the computer you carry in your pocket via apps designed and managed by ruthlessly efficient data scientists and programmers seems like a mistake. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

I knew next to nothing about online betting and apps. It turns out I wanted to learn from @mckaycoppins.bsky.social in @theatlantic.com. Coppins is *always* good. (Gift article.) www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

Posted by a friend on Instagram. Yea, I see the resemblance to the other nine men. Taking it in seriously. During #WomensHistoryMonth, I can personally reflect on this, and feel amazed at how women have made history despite this built in disadvantage. Backwards, in heels, and harassed.
