"Let me exercise my role as G7 chair" -- Carney steps in to stop Trump from taking more questions

Someone please tell me this is AI generated and not stupidity and attempted manipulation so blatant it offends the most basic sensibility.

“Dude’s looked like a bag of ass since I was in high school,” says my brilliant and gorgeous wife @bourbonface.bsky.social

OH WHAT THE WHOLE FUCKING FUCK.

Kristi Noem. I think this is an apt analogy.

Just wasted four minutes thinking of how Rs would dunk on Ds if their social media referred to bullets as “freedom seeds.”

Elbows up, Canada.

I hope America is as lucky as the delta jet - everyone survives but the right wing explodes

This is it. Fight like hell.

They’re going to bring down prices by allowing big grocery stores to surreptitiously raise prices. Got it.

Greetings from South Africa.

All class, these guys.

I know the country is about to kinda fall apart but I’d like every woman over the age of 40 to hear these words and remember that they aren’t merely enough, they are EXTRAORDINARY, and they’re not done until they choose to be done. youtu.be/9SvW3XJP5Ic?...

A particular good morning to all the cartoonists creating and sharing their own versions of Ann Telnaes’ piece that Bezos refused to publish. Loving the art. Loving the solidarity.

Introducing the younger stepminion to Apollo 13 tonight and oh my god this movie rules.

No more escaping it, huh. Time to 2025.

Challenger explosion.

Threads feeds me all the drama. Bluesky, just what I ask for. Makes it easier to log into the former for the high, though it’s less satisfying. Gotta start cultivating this site better.

I’d like to see more major-media reports on how the involvement of Elon Musk with a) the Presidential Transition, b) the House Republican Conference, c) the Senate Republican Conference, and d) lobbyists is already unlike anything America has ever seen with a non-government adviser. 100% horrifying.

Not sure saying “more oppo” over and over was especially helpful but I’m nothing if not consistent.

Okay friends- who do I need to be following if I want reporting and analysis of the implementation of Project 2025?

So a reminder: It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom. It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president. It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child. For the record.

Ai'ight, if we're having to start from scratch again, I'll go ahead and let y'all know I'm mostly here for: Star Trek chatter Center-Left politics Quality jokes News of the outside world BlackSky Texas shenanigans (interpret as you will) Explanations of pop culture (cuz I'm old) Nice to meet you!

Okay, next question- is there a way to easily find my peeps out here that I already follow on other platforms?

Okay, I'm here, and it looks exactly like Threads. What do I need to know about this joint?
