Not as many followers and not as many interactions here as I had on Twitter. Still, I will never return to Twitter. Twitter, I used to say good-bye if I knew I was out for awhile. People wished me well. That won't happen here on Bluesky, but no worries. I'll still say good-bye now. Back in 2026.

ICE? I pronounce it Scheiße.

Y'all do know, don't you, that the House will not seat her even when they return. The House is closed.

From my 3rd-floor balcony, just saw a monarch butterfly wafting/floating by. 💙🦋

Yeah, Facebook is a trashy social media app, for sure. But LinkedIn is a close second. Try, just try, to delete your LinkedIn account. They make it effing impossible. I hate LinkedIn more than I hate Facebook. #DeleteLinkedIn

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER — GCN

Proud of the Rapid Response To Kristi Noem's press conference in Minnesota yesterday. 🐸 1,500 protestors showed up outside the Bishop Henry Whipple Building to greet her. ✊🏼 Chanting: "No more Minnesota nice, we don't want your dirty ICE." 🧊

the point of the ballroom obvs has nothing to do with aesthetics. it's to create an architectural structure to honor the patronage networks that currently dominate US politics. previous WH venues hosted maybe a couple of hundred people; this hosts nearly 1,000 rich donors.

Could the Universe have been expanding forever? #AskEthan The Universe is expanding today, and looks like it will do so forever. But was it expanding eternally into the past as well? Most physicists think "no," and this theorem explains why. bigthink.com/starts-with-... #space #physics #astro

it's hard to Nazi what's going on here

"That's the standard technique of privatization: defund, make sure things don't work, people get angry, you hand it over to private capital." Noam Chomsky

I’m good with my taxes subsidizing social welfare for people who can’t afford food. I’m enraged with my taxes subsidizing corporate welfare to businesses that won’t pay a living wage.

Americans still don't realize how bad it has gotten and how much worse it is going to get. Immense destruction, pain and suffering, and we're not even at the tip of it.

Was “Twice Impeached Convicted Felon, Adjudicated Rapist and Financial Fraudster Ballroom” taken?

If members of the United States military are truly being paid their salaries by a private individual, the American people should know who that individual is. Now.

Doug Ford's ad using Reagan's words slamming tariffs just aired during the World Series

This is murder sanctioned by the GOP.

This absolutely unhinged quote from the president of the United States is in the 19th paragraph in this article. Barely remarkable! But also just astonishing.

Je me suis fait mariner du poulet à 6h ce matin en prévision de mon souper ce soir, ma cousine appelle ça les Brochettes comme au resto. Ce sera servi avec des tagliatelles au chou de Bruxelles pour faire changement du riz

Very concerning, if true.

"Common vaccine?" Give me a break. Heaven forbid they just said "COVID-19 mRNA vaccine." Not that we needed more data to call BS on the "COVID-19 vax leads to 'turbo cancer'" claims, but this is good. 🛟😷medsky science communication

This dark time should wake us up to the bankruptcy of the corporate Democratic Party. It should mark the birth of the people’s Democratic Party. Zohran Mamdani and others like him are its future. Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-mamdani-moment

It’s not about beef prices or buying from other countries. It’s about beating the dems and liberals. Now go bankrupt and suffer, idiots.

There he goes again

Brutality is the brand. The authoritarian brand. The Fascist brand.

This is murder.

I wish people defended smeared victims of sexual violence the way they defend problematic male candidates for office

Indigo buntings aren't always very indigo. A mostly tan bunting, likely a female, clings to a dead plant stem at the edge of the prairie on a bright morning. #birds

This is true. He is stupid racist.

When SHOCKINGLY LOW IQ Donald Trump talks about "low IQ people," he is inevitably talking about Black people. Yes, he's always been that racist.

The monarchs are very happy with my flowers right now. I probably have 30+ enjoying my mystic spires salvia, mistflower, and agastache! #NTexas #gardening 🌱

#TruthWarriors #resist #BlueCrew #ProudBlue EXACTLY! Successful midterms DEMAND just one powerful message! No blathering; no big words; no fuzzy concepts. Our ability to live our lives normally is under a barrage of almost daily attacks. That single truth has to be blasted out there!

Yeah but that one research paper was dealing with movements with specific objectives. What was the objective on Saturday? "Trump bad"? That's not a goal. "Impeachment now" is a goal. "Military, arrest the President and any judge that tries to stop you" is a goal.

None of the researches have said that. They have said that in the past the reform has happened after 3.5% of population actively participated in civil disobedient and public protest. 3.5% is not a magic number that topples a regime. Its only one metric out of many activities.
