IT, IS TIME ‼️

precisely it is bad enough that Reagan has been mythologized the way he has; to let it happen with Donald Trump would be a travesty damnatio memoriae for all traitors and monsters

Nothing was going to change under Mullin.

"The American political conversation has moved on from abortion," writes @moiradonegan.bsky.social. "But the state-by-state patchwork of women’s rights remains an untenable reality, and the ferocity of the anti-choice movement’s misogyny has not been abated."

Man, that sounds terrible. Killed with impunity by agents of the state for just being on the street and protesting? Hard to see how regimes like that can continue to claim a popular mandate.

i am tired of having to listen to dumb assholes just because they have a lot of money

This is a really good response rooted in a lot of truth. Especially salient when Sarah mentions letting folks have the dignity of their choices and the the questions the American public should be asking when it comes to bailouts and subsidies.

every mushroom foraging guidebook: This is Woodland Pot Roast, a tasty little mushroom that adds a delightful flavour to soups and stews. Note that it is often mistaken for Satan’s Fistula, a mushroom that erases the last 9 generations of your family from God’s ledgers.

My comment to the Brads in this country is “I’m sorry you were lied to, that sucks. So what are going to do to fix this? Are you ready to do the work to ensure this never happens again or would your vote remain the same?” I don’t give a single shit about recriminations, I care about action.

His parents should be prosecuted and held liable for inability to secure their firearms. Seriously, if you give even the barest hint of a shit about ethical gun ownership and 2nd Amendment rights you should be fucking livid about this shit.

The accuracy 🤣😭

this is worth watching in full just to understand who is in charge of the DNC right now. just an archetypal evasive, lying politician with zero respect for his audience.

Listening to an interview with Ken Martin, head of the Democratic National Committee, and holy shit this guy is a fucking arrogant dick. If this is the party standard it’s no wonder anyone with progressive leaning politics has given the party double barrel middle fingers and walked away.

The problem that I *personally* have with this, in re Newsom, Platner, et al, is that none of them have given any indication that their policies will be progressive. Newsom is still doing the podcast w nazis thing, Platner is spouting ‘working man’ platitudes. But what will they actually do?

Maine has a problem in that the senate race is going to be between the perpetually concerned-before-voting-the-GOP-party-line Susan Collins and Graham “my Nazi tattoos are raising a lot of questions that I would rather not answer” Platner. The solution is simple: Draft Stephen King.

Platner is trending again. I don't buy that he had no idea what the tattoo meant, it doesn't feel like he's done the work of change (if he has he's doing a shitty job explaining it). I don't blame Mainers for staying home if the choice is a Dem with a past that includes Nazi support or a Republican.

"Bluesky will never be Twitter." Then how come I look at it every morning and it makes me sad, hmm? Explain that.

Little Market opens for the season tomorrow, I think I'm ready. On offer this weekend is: Lemon Blueberry Loaf Oreo Brownies Giant Chocolate Chip Cookie (or Peanut Butter Chocolate) Rhubarb Bars Strawberry Rhubarb Jam Strawberry Vanilla Jam Victorian BBQ Sauce Assorted pottery

We should have championed boarding houses instead of AirBnB's.

This is interesting because it challenges two widely held political assumptions: 1) that people love it when everything at the supermarket is at least $8.99 and 2) that the easiest way to win voters over is to go on TV every day and say that you need to build a big event space or you'll die.

👇This this this

shouldn't it be "Lost $25,000,000,000" the same way these get worded for the post office?

This👇🏽 deserves to be posted 100 times but I’d be labeled spam.

Men will say "honor us or else we'll engage in a bunch of stupid brutal violence" and then do the stupid brutal violence regardless.

It’s hard for me to convey how much I do not give two pumps and a robust squirt about the king and queen of England. Don’t give a shit about them in England. Give less of a shit about them in America. Honestly don’t understand why they exist at all.

We have a cool off leash area that has some river frontage and a baldy hangs out on a snag. He watches the river to one side and ground squirrels to the other. It’s common curtesy to warn folks with little pups the eagle is out.

Since it's come up, I really do think people have forgotten just how monumentally shitty it was when every square inch of public space smelled like a fucking ashtray

Inflation right now is a result of Trump shooting himself in the dick and the rest of us paying for it. The is no one to blame but Trump. Higher prices have a direct link to the terrible policies of a senile old rapist.

Trying out a new mechanic for an oil change and this place is super religious. Bibles on the table and The Bible Network on the TV in the waiting room. Really putting a damper on the blow job scene in the romance novel I'm reading while I wait.

The messaging in this election is so easy even the Democrats could do it

the basic reality is that this court has already destroyed the united states as a functional republic and none of the reforms necessary to rebuild it will survive the court as it currently exists any democrat not committed to expanding the court is not serious about fixing this country

The ICE agent who shot and killed Renee Good in Minneapolis—and then called her a “fucking bitch” moments before she died in her car—was only placed on three days of administrative leave and continues to work for the agency in another state. trib.al/C3bEEAM

“LOOKS LIKE MEAT IS BACK ON THE MENU BOYS”

This is a really cool thread about Ag Secretaries and it highlights how the position has changed our society both good and bad.

The most dangerous time to be a woman is when you're pregnant or when you're trying to leave a relationship.

I love her

How Volodymr Zelenskyy manages to survive in a literal war without a ballroom to keep him safe is just shocking to me.

I’ve dreamt of a bakery that just sells old fashion and “country” deserts. Betty’s , buckles, cobblers, pineapple upside down cake, jello cake, chocolate depression era cake, Dutch baby’s made to order. Old recipes with weird ingredients that taste amazing.

It’s eight people. Eight men whose personal net worth tallies more than $1 trillion. Median US resident net worth is less than $125,000.

guarantee restaurant satellite apologize For typing it's "to pass" As in "would you like to pass?" Which often gets mistyped to "would you like to top ass?" All words that spell check is perfectly fine with but those I do business with are left with many questions.

Not surprising media outlets are entertaining this bullshit about needing a bulletproof ballroom. Treat it for what it is, bullshit excuses because politicians are too chickenshit to address the real issues at play here. It's an unserious response from unserious people.

From what has been made public the shooter called DT a "pedophile, rapist and traitor." None of these are "left-wing" orthodoxies. The first is suggested by sworn testimony of an Epstein victim about an incident when she was 13 yrs old, the second established in court, and the the third on Jan.6th.

my take on the most recent events.

“Nation mourns as Trump continues to live.”

"I can't believe a population inundated with shootings isn't taking this shooting as the most serious thing ever" cry me a river fr

Gah, I shouldn’t have checked Bluesky after having a pretty great night drinking beer, playing cribbage and shooting the shit with friends. Time to turn this bullshit off and go to bed wishing the worst to everyone in this administration. Maybe tomorrow it will happen.

Her previous post mentions how he couldn’t stay focused and pivoted to the ballroom construction in the presser for a shooting event. This bullshit is exactly why we don’t give as shit. Smooth the crazy over Clara, slurp it up and spit it back out to your readers as “everything is normal”.

actually it does help because nobody needs spineless individuals who kowtow willingly to a fascist egomaniac and mass murderer on their side, Clara, but you do you, as useless as that is
