"I exist" whoa slow down why are you bringing politics into this

I said it and I meant it. We need Churchills, not Chamberlains.

“If you test positive for COVID, one of the simplest interventions you can do… immediately begin taking both a h1 (Claritin, Allegra, Zyrtec) and h2 (Pepcid) antihistimine available over the counter as soon as you test positive” Research backs it, reduces inflammation that causes vascular damage etc

They can kill millions of people, and they might, but if the goal is to make it illegal to make fun of authority figures, I'm really sorry, it's never gonna happen for you. Have you met teens, have you tried going up to teens and saying it's illegal to laugh at me, a grown-up who has authority

*clears throat* AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Dear The Media: Get real experts to comment on the autism lies that are going to come out from the administration. Don’t both-sides this. The furthest you should go to be charitable is something like: “Trump admin says X, which the overwhelming medical consensus says is simply not true.”

Folks saying "why did it take Kimmel for folks to get upset?!?" Like are y'all new here? 😭 😭 I thought we all understood why well trained activists tell folks to put the white folks upfront and in the frontline of most protest actions?? They ain't moving until they see themselves in the victim

You guys, so many Romance girlies are reading "On Tyranny" that they've broken the Goodreads recommendations algorithm. 10/10; no notes. #romancelandia

IT'S IRONIC that Disney, of all companies, has never learned how to battle villains.

If you have not heard of Fated States, they are @romancingthevote.bsky.social's democracy pals! You should follow them and be ready because they organize and they also phone bank and phone banking with romance readers & authors is REAL FUN.

There are signs that while ICE is driving around, they may be scouting out homes where they see any signs laborers are present. If you have people working for you, whether it’s roofers, painters, landscapers, carpenters, whatever, you should have a plan to protect them if ICE shows up.

It’s really all we should be talking about today.

And if you don't remember, there will be a show tonight to help! www.cbs.com/shows/video/...

Virginia state elections are November 4th. Virginia is our opening electoral salvo against the administration--a place where control of the State House of Delegates was decided in 2023 by just 975 votes. If you can, please join us in contributing. www.grapevine.org/giving-circl...

Happy 21st night of September to all who celebrate! youtu.be/Gs069dndIYk

novavax news! for americans

War. Crimes.

imagine voting “present” on this imagine knowing how bad it looks to vote “yes,” like actively realizing how fucked up that is, but still not having the spine to vote “no” I am almost more angry at that?? you KNOW it’s bad and you’re doing it anyway but trying to keep your hands clean! fuck you!

the fact that a sitting US president is talking about antifascism being terrorism should tell you a lot about what he thinks his own government represents

Anyone who agrees to this is no longer a journalist

whoever is running the most effective “PRIMARY ALL OF THEM. YES, ALL. I SAID ALL. I MEAN ALL” campaign can have literally all my money, time, and social media followers. Congressional fire sale, everything must go, no substitutions, all sales final. I’m so serious. this is irredeemable

THIS EXACTLY a bunch of terrible people are going to take the off ramp and we don't have to like them for it, just recognize that the worst people are reading the writing on the wall and positioning themselves for what they think is coming next.

I hope some newspapers use a crop where you can easily read the sign.

Fearful Americans Stockpiling Facts Before Federal Government Comes To Take Them Away https://theonion.com/fearful-americans-stockpiling-facts-before-federal-gove-1819579589/

*9/19/2025 noncooperation thread* Good people doing what they can to help protect their neighbors from abduction. 6/

We’re protesting outside the Broadview ICE facility and an agent came out to tell us to go away. We said we’re exercising our First Amendment rights so he shot the ground with pepper balls and said, “Your First Amendment rights are on the sidewalk.”

This is what all our *currently* elected officials should be doing, and not nearly enough are. We need people who are willing to stand up against fascism, not weak-willed appeasers. Good on you, @katmabu.bsky.social

9-0 SCOTUS ruling from last year: “Government officials cannot attempt to coerce private parties in order to punish or suppress views that the government disfavors.”

I wanted to get a video of this ghost crab but every time I got close to their hole they scuttled back in, so I tried getting clever with it. I made a little sandcastle and shoved my phone into it, hit record, and walked away. Crab was VERY suspicious of this addition to their environment.

Yeah, this is going to resonate with ordinary voters more because it's simultaneously an obvious violation of free speech and an attack on something tangible to them.

The exact frame used in recent years whenever a bigot lost a job for racist harassment is now used for people who are being targeting by the federal government for saying true things. Except that before the framing suggested the firing was dangerous; now it suggests it is a lesson learned.

If this isn't your response to doomerism I don't want to know you

Dear Executives, Please know the American people are going to turn your business upside down as soon as you bend the knee to this fascist regime. See what happened to Target? 40% loss in value and CEO fired. We’re doing that to Disney/ABC now, and you’ll be next 🙂. Sincerely, Your Customers

JOINT STATEMENT: Hollywood Labor on Pulling of Jimmy Kimmel Live w/ @sagaftra.org @directorsguild.bsky.social @afm-union.bsky.social

Where the separate divisions of ANTIFA landed on the beaches of Normandy on June 6, 1944:

I know we keep focusing on Colbert and Kimmel as we should, but we also need to remember there are hundreds of people who work for these shows who also just lost their jobs because of this bullshit, and most of them are probably not millionaires.

It is excruciating to be used like this. I call on him to resign. I call on Congress to remove him. I call on Democrats to care enough about Long Covid to keep it from being made a wedge issue.

I call on the Long Covid research and clinical communities to take no action that legitimizes this profoundly anti-science Secretary and his Great Barrington department heads. It is an act of wisdom, when you are dying of thirst, to refuse the sip of poisoned water. - Anne Lamott.

My first thought was Schumer’s account was hacked. Because yes it’s been a fucking outrage for months now.

Naperville rise up

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

Oh for fuck’s sake — “beef” is something you have with a peer or colleague. When someone in elected office demands your comedy show be pulled because they don’t like your political opinions, the term for that is “censorship.”

Many of us depend on #telehealth, but essential telehealth provisions expire on Sept 30 in the US. @meactnet.bsky.social has a script to call/email your representatives re a bill to preserve telehealth: www.meactions.org/telehealth Please advocate by Sept 29th! #MEAction #pwme #disabilityrights

Sept 18, 2025 Disney Studios protest Burbank, CA. Confirmed WGAW Union sent out a notification to their members that this was happening today. Feels good to see so many people standing up for what’s right.

We've been hearing from so many of you this year, asking us the question we're asking each other and anyone else who will listen--some version of "OMG WHAT DO WE DO?!"

Writers Guild protest is starting now at the Disney gate in Burbank….

We’re kicking things off tonight with some of the smartest activists working to oppose the Trump regime’s authoritarian takeover. Join us to discuss the vision, urgency, and strategy behind the next national day of action on October 18: www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

If the Democrats lose this messaging war, primary everyone. I want Dems to run who will make calling out pedophiles their ENTIRE platform. We have so much evidence, not the least of which is the President was buddies and business partners with the World's most famous pedophile.
